Very well done :D

[{Freak}Rct3]

New piece:

Ok and now the funny thing!!! it only has 14 faces, What about that YEAH!
sry normally you have much faces with these thing but i lowered it very well.

i am making a new one like this but with more detail. and i am also making a top!

[Janitor 06]

Dude... That does NOT have 14 faces. You see how much faces there are when you export it. I think you mean that the curved line has 14 sides. That could be reduced to 9 or so.

[{Freak}Rct3]

no it is one sided so it only has 14 to 24 faces (can't remember everything) and you can click a button in the importer for dubbel sided. i already exported the wall piece before i posted it.

That path looks extremely similar to the one from Acena's Path Essentials.

^it isn't i checked it

Ok it has been a while since i updated, but i got on my holiday
had some delay on the flight back to the Netherlands and my
school came in also.

But now i don't have to make anymore tests for school
i have some free time. So i got a update, not a big one
but a regular one. The coming weeks i will update every
week if possible.

So here is the update:

why is it an entrance set?

[Old-Spice]

On the wall with the curv... you have to many faces... I would shrink it down or 5 or 4

[Maylene]

yes why is it called entrance set?

[rideslover]

look nice

[{Freak}Rct3]

nope not too many... i am not on my own computer right now, but it doesn't have more than 24 faces... that's because it's not a round shape but a little bit blockery like surfingoz explained about the circles and tubes. this will lower the faces by 75%

yes why is it called entrance set?
The entrance set things come soon.

why is it an entrance set?

look nice
Thank you

[adamb241]

Looks very good, well done.

[BigBurger]

Really cool! Everyone's using DasMatze's textures. He should be proud of this. I really like the curved walls and gates. Looking forward to the release, but don't rush. We all want a good set, of course and I think it already is good ;)

yes i used dasmatze textures because they are very good in my eyes, they are recoulerable and the just look nice... and since the fight about textures and models not being made by a cs maker i just use some things that we all know, cause else i have to link up and all these things. And you know... if you post a link of all your textures you used, who cares. it is about the game to be nicer and realistic and cs is usefull in that... now i am changing the subject to you last words...

thank you i won't rush it cause i have a lot of ideas. i finally managed to get the icons fixed and i know how the icons work now. i have lots of new ideas and you can be expecting a update within 2 days cause i made a lot more models (just i need to import them now;):p)

Thank you for all your great comments

I like that wall you made with your own pieces, looks pretty nice! But how many faces does the wall with the curved corner have, exactly?

Are you also going to make some new windows to put in the walls? As seperate models, os we can also put them in other walls.

[{Freak}Rct3]

The total faces is: 32 faces, this looks very much but my first model of that wall was 55 faces, my second was 15 but that was very blocky and very ugly in the game. so this is a good to fine end result... ill see what i still can change about it. but for now i don't want to stick with it because it would be neccisary to change it when poeple are getting a lot of trouble with it.

furder news:
i am also making a top side piece for above the sides, this is because if you look at the wall on top, you can see the sides.

Also i am planning to make some nice fences with glass in the middle. when finished it will be one with and one without glass so you can place something else in it, more about that later.

The problem with the billboard is fixed and can be used as a normal billboard. If poeple want i can also make it as a scrolling sign. if not i won't.

The windows are almost finished, with and without glass in the middle, the door are being prepared and i am also working on ideas for ticket booths, because we don't have any.

New park lamps ideas also have been made and soon will be nice pictures of it.
This was {Freak}Rct3 with a report of the progress

[{Freak}Rct3]

Ok it's small but here it is:

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee194/FreakRct3/CS5.jpg

I have made ticket booth walls... you can use them as closed ones and open ones! As you can see i need to change 2 thins... the ungrouped faces, and the billboard textures. So i am working on this right away.

And uh the opened wall doesn't have more than 42 faces, this includes: the wall with opening, the Billboard face, the rounded pilars down for the billboard... and the round pilars are together 12 faces, that means 6 faces per pilar.

Well i am working on these 2 things right away.

There are some really nice pieces in this set. Just a couple comments/suggestions:

- The floor path covers--you'll probably want to turn off the shadows on those. As you can see in your early pics, it casts a pretty big shadow, which doesn't make sense for a path cover.

- I don't think your poly count is accurate on some of your curves:

http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/8410/curvedip8.jpg

You can clearly see in this pic that the curved edge is made up of 12 segments. That means that the top surface consists of 24 polys. The underside and two sides of the curved part also have 24 polys then, making that a total of 96 polys so far. Add on the two sides, which have 2 more each, and you've got a total of 100 polys. That's not HORRIBLE, but for a wall-type piece that would conceivably be used a lot, it might be a lag-causer.

[{Freak}Rct3]

i already remade the gate... and i don't put the cover in, cause the normal path in rct3 also is very nice with my set. and now the gate has only 5 sigments wich meens that it only has 40 polys... and why does everyone keep saying that i have to change things if i arleady changed them, why don't poeple give nice and good comments on my latest pieces, like my ticket booth walls.

Well as i already sayd: I already CHANGED it! Happy now?

i hope so

Wow...might I suggest that you only post your set on this forum when you're ready to receive constructive criticism. The end of your last post makes you sound like you're 12 years old. If all you want is "nice and good comments," then you're here for the wrong reasons. You'll get nice and good comments BUT you'll also receive comments and suggestions from people who are just trying to help you make the set as good and user-friendly as possible.

[{Freak}Rct3]

well i am 13 years old... and i already changed those things cause i already got some criticism on that from some poeple...

And sometimes it is good to hear a: 'good work' or 'nice i can't wait for more'
cause then you know you don't need to change the model or let the model out, because it gives a nice feeling...

there i sayd it...

Yes, but I'm 14 and take critisism very well. Just because you're young doesn't mean you can act like a inmature child, now does it? They're just trying to help you make a wonderful set! And if thier comments really bother you that much, just ignore them and continue making the set without their advice. There will always be people who don't like your stuff, or think it needs something to be perfect. Always.

[endrant]

Oh, and... I do like the set so far, mostly for the pathcovers. :)

It's nice to hear those things..but what's even nicer, is to get advice from one of the most creative persons that's on the site, like Mikeyca is...there's plenty of people out there who would LOVE to have his input on their work.

It's all to help make your pack the best it can be..be happy to get it..:up:

Now, good work, can't wait for more..:)

[{Freak}Rct3]

Well sorry guys that i react like that...

but some good news:
i have fixed the ungrouped faces and changed a little bit on the open ticket booth wall, it now only has 34 faces. The gate has not more than 46 faces and i think that is not really much for a 1x3 tile gate. i am probably getting out the path covers but not sure yet...

And i was thinking of some new small and big fountains for your park entrance. Also i will make an expansion for this set (after this set is finished) wich will be called: {Freak}'s Park Accesoires set... but that will be after i finished this set. And if everything goes well, the set will be finished at the beginning of december 2010 :p. 2007 ofcourse :D.

Bad bad bad news...

As some of you know, a virus is going on the internet by msn.
Well, i got the virus. so my computer crashed and it has been repaired. But all my data was lost so i need to remake every single thing. But i am taking requests, so post your requests.

sorry for this, i am back on making it again.
-{Freak}

[simtanic8]

That sucks. Im sorry that happened. Im glad you got your computer fixed though. I dont have any requests though. I dont use msn. I wonder how it got out?

[{Freak}Rct3]

well it's just so weird, you're msn is online and than a msn chat windows appears and your computer crashes :S

but that was 3 hours ago and now it is fixed again so i am happy. and i got great ideas to improve everything

[XcoasterdudeX]

Ha ha it seems like any time some ones making a set their computer crashes and they lose every thing!
