[WIP] - Fatamorgana Queueline

[Remarkable]

Hello all,

Finally I have some time to continue working on the Efteling, and so I began making the walls and arches for the queueline..

here are some pics..

the texture isn't perfect yet... they are supposed to be recolorable, but I made the mistake to darken them after indexing them.. so they don't have a pure color now.. hopefully I'll sort that out soon.. and I've used a texture ovl.. so thats easy to do


EDIT: I thought I posted this in Custom Scenery... I'm sorry, could someone move it there?

[coinich]

This looks quite nice. What are all of the separate pieces?

[stu-2693]

thats real pwetty, none of my pieces have ever looked that pwetty :(

[sigsig76]

very nice set. i hpoe, i can see more

[Theme Parker]

Whow that looks quite realistic man! :) I worked there for several years and it looks beautiful!

[Bubu85]

Oh well... That's great work! Do you model just the q-line or even more from this ride / in this kind of architecture? That would be a great expansion to the standart oriental/arabian set!

[-eezee-]

That looks really very nice. Is this just covers for the queue or will it be a real queue option to choose of? Hope to see more pieces for this very promising set. BTW how much polygons have the arches?

[Stevis]

This is looking really promising indeed! :D :up:
I'm a huge Efteling fan and I am waiting so long before anyone can make Efteling scenery, but you finally managed to do it! I already saw a few of your Efteling scenery at Vodhin's. They are great and I hope you will release it soon?
The queue line is very accurate as I can tell. Are you planning to do more of the station like the circle dock and the control room in the center?
Keep it up with this. I can't wait to see more of this, it's addictive! :bulb:

[Belgabor]

I think doing this as a real queue line would be too limiting, but a real path should be possible.

[Theme Parker]

Belgabor, maybe an edit of wound could be useful. This makes you read it like "won't" which makes your post to be misinterpret very easily ;)

Ps. Remarkable: Finally I have some time to continue working on the Efteling.

This means you already have some Efteling objects completed or something like that?

[Remarkable]

This looks quite nice. What are all of the separate pieces?

so far the set includes:

Arch (large)
Arch (QT)
Arch wall large
Arch wall QT
Wall base large
Wall base QT
Arch corner
Arch wall corner
Wall base corner
Post

Slanted H1 Left
Slanted H1 Right

Ow sure they do Stu.. (Dough).. and you know how to do particle effects.. thats amazing!

very nice set. i hpoe, i can see more

just hang on a bit :noob:

Whow that looks quite realistic man! :) I worked there for several years and it looks beautiful!

Thanks!

I'm gonna do the ***** ride.. and continue from there..

These are just covers ofcoarse.. the arches have 116 polygons.. but I have yet to add the lod versions.. (note to self: don't forget to add the LOD models)

Thanks Stevis.. yes I'm gonna try and work my way through the whole ride.. and the circle dock and the controlroom are next on the list..
I don't know about releasing anything soon.. maybe is't better to release the CS of a complete ride as one set..

I think doing this as a real queue line wound be too limiting, but a real path should be possible.

It's just CS.. you can place it wherever you like

Belgabor, maybe an edit of wound could be useful. This makes you read it like "won't" which makes your post to be misinterpret very easily ;)

Ps. Remarkable: Finally I have some time to continue working on the Efteling.

This means you already have some Efteling objects completed or something like that?

yes.. I've got a WIP set (advanced stage) of the Efteling Brink.. the large oval square.. including the unique fences..

I also have some trashcans ready.. and a menu sign

plus I'm building the park at the same time.. but I'd like to get it done one ride at the time now..

[Theme Parker]

I also have some trashcans ready.. and a menu sign

Are these already released somewhere?

[Remarkable]

No.. it's just 3 pieces.. that's not enough to make a set yet

ow I forgot.. I also have a flower set.. about 20 different pieces.. but I'm not happy with that texture either..

If something is released, it will be on my own forum.. (see signature)

The laser shooting snake is part of the walls in the tilting chamber.. I wanna figure out how to make animated textures for that..
Djinn the giant looks hard to make.. I'll see what I can do.

wow, look very nice.

Thanks

Nope thats drummah , :o:up:

indeed

possible, but not the case :)

thank you

What is it you're driving on? ...

pure love for the Efteling
.. and coffee keeps me going as well

[RCT3robin]

Lol coffee :p , You can always pm me for animated textures ":)

[{Freak}Rct3]

i've been to de efteling a lot of times and your model looks a lot like the real one :up: keep it up :up:

[Theme Parker]

Lol that was meant for RCT3robin, because I didn't understand his reaction quite well :p

[Remarkable]

Hi all..

I've been busy.. mostly with non RCT3 related stuff.. but I did spend a lot of time figuring out how to index my textures, so that the values would correspond to what I believe is right.. I found a solution.. drop it and don't index.. and here is what that looks like:

http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj217/Remarkable_forums/rct3/FataQueue_texture1.jpg

[RCT3robin]

aah great just great :D!

[MeJayBe]

Wow. Very crisp and detailed. I like!

[Theme Parker]

Cool texture, very realistic as well :D

[RCT-Spanky]

My favourite italian restaurant has the same color combination with the same structure on their walls. Now you know, where the Efteling-Designers have got their inspirations from. :)

[Rct3net]

Wow this is verry cool the stairs look excactly the same as the real ride!

[Remarkable]

very funny..
it was build 22 years ago and this queueline would be discribed as: "not themed"..

[Theme Parker]

Hows progress going?

[Remarkable]

Well, I've made a couple of more objects and improved the old ones.. but I have yet to import them, but I can't find the time..

first I had some server troubles with my website.. and now I'm up to my neck in gardning and stuff.. :rolleyes:

[TheFreshEffect]

Ha, I needed a set like this a year ago but enough of me, nice work matey!

[SilverSole]

Looks great, i wanna use that for my fata morgana ride.

[Drummah]

hahah yes that was me ;) I'm thinking of picking up my project:D (that means starting over :P )
I think we should work together..
Btw, the colors aren't the same as in the real FM: http://static2.bareka.com/photos/medium/4252405/fata-morgana-wachtrij.jpg

[Remarkable]

everything is recolorable.. so you can just pic the colors you think match the original the best..

a more blueish green.. or a more salmon kind of red..

how do you suggest we work together Drummah?

[Drummah]

Maybe we can finish the fata morgana together.
We kunnen afspreken wie wat maakt. (sorry don't know how to say in english :haha:).
I think we can help eachother a lot. I can make particles and a little animatronic :)

[Drummah]

I created the shop of the Fata Morgana, which also is the exit. I made some stuff around it, because I was bored.

[RCT3robin]

ooh that looks good drummah , and the idea for doing it together is a great idea


'' We kunnen afspreken wie wat doet''
Translation:
We can make an deal who does what or who makes what.

[Drummah]

I made a fata morgana fountain.

Drummah:cool:

[RCT3robin]

nice fountain Drummah is that a shining effect i spot ;)?

[Drummah]

The gold is SIOpaquereflection, the blue is SIOpaquecausticsreflection and the other texture is just SIOpaque :)

[Stevis]

A collaboration between Drummah and Remarkable seems very good to me.
This whole project is coming along nicely! :D :D

Drummah has created some truly great objects. This is going to be the first and best Fata Morgana set ever! :up:

Btw, What are those roofs behind the bazaar facade? I've never seen them before...
Can you do the domes, too? :nuts:

OW, I can't wait. This is better than I ever expected of what was possible.
Recreating Efteling in RCT3 will be more easier and easier in the future.
Thank you guys and keep it up! :D :up:

[Drummah]

Thanks Stevis!
The roofs.. It's just a part of a pack I never released :rolleyes:

EDIT
Just made one of the domes (it's recolorable)

http://img383.imageshack.us/img383/619/fata3ak5.png

[Rct3net]

wow I love the efteling and this looks awsome! the buildings look really realistic! but are you going to make the rest of building to or do we have to make that by downloading other sets? and are you also gonna make some indoor objects like the crocs and the the fakir stuff?

[sr3d]

Looks really good, maybe the dome spire should be done with 2 plains and an alpha though?

[Drummah]

It has now 278 poly's, the old one was too high

[Escapade Isle]

Recoloable domes... yes!
Can't wait!

[RCT3robin]

That dome looks really great Drummah :),And that poly's is very good :up:

[Drummah]

I made a screenshot of the lower poly one (278)

http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/840/fata4qe4.jpg

EDIT:

I made a fence:

http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/3807/fata5pd9.jpg

[sr3d]

how many polys is the fence? 278 for the dome I guess is ok =/

[RCT3robin]

Those objects look great drummah, is the fence also recoulrble?

[belotto33]

Very nice looking objects, fantastic work.
Thank you for sharing.
:up::up:

[rideslover]

Wow, awesome

[Remarkable]

wooopsy... haven't updated this much ..
.. but thats probably because I haven't made much progress..

Here's the controll booth.. it stil needs some work..

http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj217/Remarkable_forums/rct3/Fata_Morgana_Set_1.jpg


and I've done some tests with effectpoints..
Here's the Torch thats on the Fata square in the winter.... ow.. this is an old picture.. you can see the new, smaller fame in the picture above

http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj217/Remarkable_forums/rct3/fatatorch-1.jpg

I've actually made some other stuff as well.. mostly tests for textures and glas.. you can see it on my forum

[coinich]

Those torches are awsome!

[Coaster Freak]

Really nice! I like the torches.

[rideslover]

cool i like that one

[Stevis]

I want it, I want it so badly, I want it definately! :nuts:
Sorry couldn't control myself.:gaga:
I'll have to punish myself... :hitting-self:

This is the first and maybe the best Efteling-scenery yet! :D :up:
It is very VERY accurate and I can say that because I'm a huge Efteling-
fan.

Keep on doing this...I want it..."No, act normal!" ... I want it....
.........*faints*...............

Please stand by for me...

[RCT3robin]

*stands by* :D

Great Set Mark, I Really Can't wait to get this one in my hands.

Thank you Robin,
I think I can breath again. I just got overloaded with emotions...

Excuse me Atari Community...

[Dr.Pest]

nice work man !!! ;) cya

[Remarkable]

work is getting in the way.. but I'm making good progress with it.. just hold on a bit :D

[Theme Parker]

Still in progress?

[Remarkable]

Well, yes and no..

I do intend to continue this set, but I'm currently very busy with school.. I won't have time for RCT3 untill after the exams in june..

[Theme Parker]

Ok, cause I'm looking forward to this set :) Hopefully i get some time in the future to create my own sets :)

[Remarkable]

The summer holidays were very busy, didn't get to CS making at all.. I had fun though.. But now it's study time again, and it will be increasingly difficult to find time for this..

I know, I'm whining over something that's my own fault. I could have made time, but I didn't. But now I'm looking forward to picking this project up again.. although I should stress that I still don't have too much time, I'll try to work on it a little bit on the weekends. I already have some models in the making..

[madshell]

Take your time and do it right, Mark. Your set looks excellent.

[coasterfreak]

Take your time, all great things are worth waiting for! hey Mark, nice to see you again!

[RedOctoberRCT3]

Wow! Very interesting
