Woooo really nice Shampignon. What did you use to make them? Photoshop or a 3d editing software? Congrats mate, amazing work

Shampignon · « **Reply #3 on:** 2020-09-10 19:25:24 »

Thank you Cloudiar !

I don't see any mp, are you sure you sent it to me?
on what address?

Thanks Jusete !

I used Photoshop only, I dont know nothing about 3D editing XD
I made copy/paste of several elements of the original map and aligned them with the structure of Da-Chao cave.

The result is perfect, well done friend

This is crazy. Well put Shampignon.

Are you planning in creating anything for the unreachable cave?

Shampignon · « **Reply #7 on:** 2020-12-07 22:49:19 »

Thank you !

I would love to create a complete and unique area for this cave, with a new quest, but it's still a bit ambitious for the moment ! Maybe one day...

nice touch on the marlboro cigarettes with a FF7 marlboro on it, lmao

its very midgar slum-ish

both of those marlboros end up with you getting hit with bad breath

Shampignon · « **Reply #9 on:** 2020-12-08 12:39:42 »

Ah ah thank you !

But I must admit that it is not my creation. Jusete has already taken up this concept for the cigarette packs that are on the ground in some of its screens ! and if you type "ff7 malboro" on google images, you will see others in the same style ^^

I love the idea so i took it over !

Shampignon · « **Reply #10 on:** 2021-03-23 13:49:06 »

Hello !

I'm back with some new fields ! Not one or two, but six, for the sewers of Midgar after Corneo's date !

Some screens in game :

And the full video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGU70Y-5wGQ&list=PLD-DKFGUUTml-53hZQw_FIBgkoV4LZzCs&index=1&t=28s

I hope you'll enjoy these too, and I can already tell you that other fields will be published soon, when I have finished preparing the video !

Shampignon... this is stunning. I'm speechless.

Do you have any plan in your mind on what you want to cover?

Just... WOW.

Awesome!

Please keep it up and thanks for sharing.

Not really. I do where it inspires me. It also depends on my motivation and technical constraints (source screens, images that I find on the internet to match the atmosphere I am looking for, problems with the layers of the game ...). There are some ideas that I had to give up or change...

AuthenticM · « **Reply #15 on:** 2021-03-26 13:28:32 »

holy fuck man. This is awesome. The sewers could be made longer and way better of a dungeon with these. It would be perfect for New Threat Type B.

@shampignon Could you upload the screens in their original resolution?

jusete · « **Reply #16 on:** 2021-04-10 14:16:36 »

Simply WOW. Really impressive what you have achieved so far. You know I started making the fields with photoshop at the beginning? This two are done with only photoshop and the I moved to 3d editing:

So you may consider spend some time learnign a lb or, if you want, I can show you how I do the fields and maybe we can work together . You are very talented and I will be glad to work side by side with you

Could be nice to see something like this:

Pre-release background 1996:

-An unused map from Gaea’s cliff that doesn’t exist in the final game. Only seen in old footage. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IdVtkdlb4E )

Pre-release background 1996:

-Beta version of the NVDUN3 field. The tree, the cave entrance, the Mako Fountain are the same but the area is darker and feels more like a closed area.

Yes I know you started with Photoshop, these two fields were very good !

I'd love to be able to make fields by 3D editing, but I don't understand nothing XD ! I tried sketchup and I didn't even manage to place my camera !
I made photo editing since many years, I'm much more comfortable with.
You can try to explain the basics to me, maybe I will figure it out. I had written the jmp's tuto about sketchup, but that didn't helped me ! XD Maybe I'm not patient enough...

I knew this picture, but I don't know what I can do with ! And for the moment, I don't know how to create walkmesh and camera. Maybe when I'm more experienced !

By the way ! I forgot to share my new screens for the Whirlwind Maze ! Here is the video :

And some screens :

Thanks to all who support me !

Just beautiful! Cannot wait to see more

This project needs a title and a donation link

AuthenticM · « **Reply #21 on:** 2021-05-03 01:12:25 »

This is amazing. Keep up the great work, Shampignon!

cloudiar · « **Reply #22 on:** 2021-06-02 23:51:12 »

Always great job, congrats!!!

I read the comment about unused, the icicle field map is really great, if you are able to take on the challenge I think I would try to create a completely new Walkmesh, I have never made a complete walkmesh but I have added new walkable areas, and regarding the camera I think which is also hard, but I can help with those works.

Shampignon · « **Reply #23 on:** 2021-06-07 12:46:09 »

Thanks to all !

Cloudiar => Thank you very much for your suggestions for help. For the moment, I can do what I want by using already existing walkmeshs (it's already a hell of a job!), and if necessary I modify a few triangles. I have not yet thought about visuals by adding areas to screens, but adding walkable areas can offer even more possibilities ! I will think about it all, and if any ideas come to me, I will remember your proposal !
