Hello it’s me again 😊

After a long time we are together with the 4th remake of Final Fantasy VIII – Balamb Garden Dormitory. Well this kept me before itself to solve every detail about 2 weeks or more. I even learned a new software just to model the jacket. The room had a complicated architecture that if you are ever to change anything that would also affect the other side too so I had to plan everything one by one. Most time consuming objects were the jacket and the Griever.
Details were everything that made me to remake this room. Yeah thats a bookcase or laptop near Squall’s bed, there is a thin welding line in the wall, jacket had to be hanged onto roller etc. You will find a mid-day and night scene renders in the project. Hope you like them all, don’t forget to comment please.

I really like that work. ¿Are you still working on it? It shall be possible to implement those backgrounds on the remaster version of the game by using Sebanisu field map editor:

https://github.com/Sebanisu/Field-Map-Editor/releases

The main issue is that these remake renders shall keep the exact position and camera angle than the original in order to achieve a perfect match in the game. If it is possible to do that, then we can get a remake version of backgrounds. But i bet its a lot of work... Sadly i do not know how to work with 3d models.

On the other hand, imagine those backgrounds with a replaced version of 3d character models... It would be awesome!

Thank you so much, I would never leave remaking the game. Well I will take a look at what you posted but my main is 3d modelling and nothing else we may unite our skills

Thank you so much, no I just wanted to make a cloth like that, I  tried painted wood but it seemed rather bad so I revised it with some cloth etc.

Hello everyone,

It has been many moons that I wanted to start modelling the classroom. Started with calculating the proportions and mostly used object was Quistis's table. Here you can see whole details that I have done for her. I also wanted to reflect the income problems of the Balamb Garden, so metal parts are not perfect but it's used anyways. Will be publishing the whole classroom soon. Be sure to follow and thank you!

Hello YasinSafak,
I think your renders are beautiful!

What softwares are you using for modeling , texturing  rendering, camera matching, asset library maybe?

I tried to do the same area a while back:

It is fun to try to spot the differences in our renders.

I have a long time project to redo all the backgrounds of the game(900 backgrounds!). But i do that not seriously as it takes a lot of work to do all the assets and materials.

Thank you so much! I used 3ds max 2021 to model, used V-Ray Lighting and materials that are all prepared by myself. Retouch and compositing with both V-Ray 5 and Photoshop together. Your work is nice as well, there is no end to beauty Wow, did we see 900 backgrounds while we play ? didn't know about it. its a serious challenge!

Oh my gosh! Thank you! Amazing renders and texturing!!! There are some projects about some fan made levels of the Balamb Garden. It would be nice if you were able to part with those guys to be able to make some fan made remake.
Here are some references:

They are really good! What I love in ff8 was the static view and this could be ultra-photorealisticated so i tried to that. We all have different ways but to the same end i think

Hello there all qhimm.com members,

I learned about your mods and forums via facebook groups that i'm following. I'm a cg artist whom is really in love with ff8. One day I started modelling the places from start and I would like to show my personal project to you. Hope you'll like them.

When it all started.. Dr. Kadowaki's Infirmary











then we are taken by Quistis to our classroom.. whilst on the corridor..





That's all for now. Hope you'll like them. See you in the next project, classroom!
