Hey People,
Some new Screens of the Japanese Teahouse, this building is to replace the Academy Ingame.
Sorry for the lack of Ran No Jidai Bars around it, I hope you'll forgive me. Wundai

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok a new building to post:
The Swordsmith Level 1 (there are 3 levels of Swordsmith)
https://img238.imageshack.us/img238/...dsmith1lp9.jpg
https://img513.imageshack.us/img513/...dsmith2ql5.jpg
Furthermore, I have something to tell you.
In the past I wanted to wait with posting building Pictures until they were REALLY done. But now I see that almost constantly we are refitting the buildings with new textures etc.
And that means that updates don't really reach the community as often as I would like, so I am now thinking of posting "Work In Progress" Screenshots here too, that way you get to see a little more screens than usual :) even though they aren't finished yet.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
EDIT: well ehm ok, just noticed the texture deformation on the smity's roof(second pic) so just consider this your first WIP ;)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Great work Wundai.
P.S I Had a go at another building http://s175.photobucket.com/albums/w...ture001-13.jpg i have not finshed the skin for the bottom bit but it is suppose to be this http://www.danhagerman.com/images/Gi...i%20Temple.jpg
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
hey wow that looks pretty cool :D
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok next Up: The Teppo Factory, where they make all the rifles
This is still a Work In Progress, because we need a better texture for the roof, and a good entrance for the in- and outside, but this is it so far. (quite finished already)
I have all 3 Levels for you ;)
Level 1:
https://img518.imageshack.us/img518/...olevel1wk2.jpg
(bit dark texture but it lightens up in RTW ;), and i was getting a bit tired of finding new ground textures every time :P)
Level 2:
https://img165.imageshack.us/img165/...olevel2af5.jpg
A little look in the courtyard of the teppo factory ;) (coolest in my opinion):
https://img68.imageshack.us/img68/72...urtyardji0.jpg
(I made this one a bit more beautyful with Sun and stone texture but the stone texture will not be shown ingame, just plane Rtw Ground :) )
And last but not least Level 3:
https://img519.imageshack.us/img519/...olevel3fc3.jpg
Enjoy :2thumbsup:

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Oh man i cant wait till this mod comes out.

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Hey All,
A little update without buildings or screens today,
I wanted to let you all know how far we are with the buildings, because i've seen that many of you want to know how much % of the mod is done,
and since for some departments that is impossible but for some it is not i'm gonna tell you how far we are:
At this moment we have 31 buildings Complete
(not all buildings were made by me, some were already finished beforehand)
(with this number i mean the number of Levels in a building included)
Example:
When i say the teahouse is finished, well it has 3 levels so that is 3 buildings done ;)
and we have 20 Buildings still to go :)
One big building for me to make is the Shiro (castle with 5 lvls ) but really, i'm looking forward to it :)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
DAMMIT!
I'm really mad with all these holiday's im on a hold here, just glad having 3dsmax back up after an Awesome computercrash, im sure everyone of you has had one of those :P
Well not that much to show but i did want to show Something at least, so here you go ;)
Work in progress: Armory

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok here it goes :yes:
The Shiro, the Japanese Castle ( still a work in progress because it needs some more wood textures )
Wanna know the funny part? This is one of the Biggest and most complicated buildings I have Ever made, but it is the SMALLEST of the 5 Levels of Castle you will see coming from me.
This Particular Level 1 is a reincarnation of Matsue Castle, and here is the Juicy Picture Material:
https://img403.imageshack.us/img403/...eshirotwb7.jpg

Enjoy :2thumbsup:
P.S. LvL 5 is Himeji Castle and this one is already made by Prometheus

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Hey all,
A few days ago I suddenly had the idea to get some more detail into the Shiro I made, so here an update picture:
https://img401.imageshack.us/img401/...inderedzx6.jpg
I'll let you tell me what is changed :robot:

That does look better. You added more detail to the roofs. :beam:

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Might Need to turn up your brightness to see all the details in this one, but I hereby present to you Shiro LVL 4
Reference was Matsumoto Castle:

https://img467.imageshack.us/img467/...sumoto2so9.jpg
https://img467.imageshack.us/img467/...sumoto3tu8.jpg
I dont see that much that needs changing to this Shiro, just have to wait and see what it looks like ingame and hope that Balcony I made doesn't lag :whip:
I can tell you this though there was never a building that took more time then this one :yes:
Have a nice day and enjoy the screens :2thumbsup:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
just .... impressive is the right word
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok ill try to break the record of finishing buildings sooner than you can reply, lol
Here fresh from the Wundai Machine, I bring you Shiro Lvl 1
Yes yes for those who have been paying attention, the previous lvl 1 was a bit to sophiscated in the building teams opinion, and so it became Shiro Lvl 2
So here Lvl 1 referenced from Aya Castle if someone ever bothered to check up on what I used to make it ;)
https://img525.imageshack.us/img525/...irolvl1dq9.jpg

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Shiro LVL 4 looks awesome. Shiro level 1 looks quite weird. Is that one a realistic replica of a (very) small Japanese castle?
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Kazuma in the post itself I said Aya Castle, just google it if ya wanna know ;)

Okay I've looked at some photos of Aya-jo. Some of the proportions of your model are off. The bottom stone base should be shorter, the entrance (gates) is above the stone base and the black part below the tower house should be a bit shorter and wider. Maybe you can improve that. The rest looks pretty good.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Actually the basis and tower are already changed, Tomte pointed those out to me,
The Gate I will not change because IMO it looks a bit stupid to have a bridge to an entrance of a castle on the second level,
In the end the purpose of a castle is to defend something, not let the soldiers walk over a bridge which cannot be closed.
2nd reason is these castles are "reference", I do not try to make exact copies of them, just a "neutral" version which can be used in every Japanese City.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Very Nice buildings , so how much buildings are left
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Hmm lets see, if I'm correct there is:
-2 building levels for the Armory
-1 building level for the castle (lvl3)
- the market (with levels)
- the port (with levels)
the patrolmens office (with levels)
I might have missed one or two but that about it ;)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
As I posted many times:
ALL HAIL WUNDAI !!!!!!!:yes: :yes: :yes: :yes:
seriously nice job with those models.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
LoL sorry it must be a bother having to write "great job " all the time :embarassed:
But I really appreciate it :beam:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
No bother to us. Its great to praise work, so that the person we are praising can finish .:laugh4:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Aaah ok :laugh4: in that case build a statue of me holding a katana on one of the Greek islands and maybe the work will be done faster, LoL
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
great idea! let's buil one come on, i'll pay the materials who's the one to put it up?
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok I'll provide reference in my avatar then!
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
^Oh nvrmind, didn't know I couldn't use my own avy :(
And no edit button either here? aaah!
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Ok if you pay for the materials I'll get the manpower for it.
lol
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
The Time has come to put an end to the Shiro Series,
Maybe you'll call me "Wundai The Cheater" after this but so be it ;)
I took the Shiro lvl 2 and added an extra building to it. Because this is generally what we chose for Lvl 3 and why not make it a bit faster, so we can get on with other buildings I thought.
Here are the screens:
(Building Time: About 30 seconds :P )
https://img401.imageshack.us/img401/...irolvl3nf5.jpg
https://img516.imageshack.us/img516/...rolvl32ms3.jpg
Well thats it, it was fun making these, and time-consuming indeed ;)
Enjoy :)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
I shall enjoy them Wundai. I'll love seeing them In-game.:laugh4:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Yes ill be putting them in for some good screens when Kage has told me how to :P
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Your latest building looks pretty good wundaisan.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Hey Community, I hope there's still some of you left :laugh4:
Long time no update, it true
To be honest I had some trouble finding motivation to start the next building, and with some other buildings I still had problems for which I have a solution now so thats some good news.
Some other good news is that I have passed on some buildings to Kagemusha which I hope he will code ingame :2thumbsup:
Ok on to the building, The Patrolmen's Office Level 1 (there are 3 in total)
This building served as kind of an Police Station within towns and city's:

https://img503.imageshack.us/img503/...office3eg3.jpg
https://img90.imageshack.us/img90/77...office4yl3.jpg
P.S. Sorry for my lazyness but theres a wrong texture in the second pic which I fixed while I took screens.
Guess I'm a little tired after spending the afternoon texturing this building :yes:

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Thanks Kazuma :beam:
Little Update on this building, wanted to change the roof type for the last level.
So in order:
Level1:
https://img444.imageshack.us/img444/...office3gp1.jpg
Level2:
https://img444.imageshack.us/img444/...office2ty9.jpg
Level3:
https://img208.imageshack.us/img208/...office1uq7.jpg
(Different Angles, but what I've done is simply deleted some of the surrounding buildings for the lower levels and made their roof type Straw-like)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
YOOO first one to post!!!!!
nice Wundai your work always gives me a heart attack so I carry a portable defibrillator. HAHAHAHA keep it up!
how many buildings left?:2thumbsup: :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Lol Eufarius :laugh4:
To Do:
- Trade Street (marketplace)
- Port
- Stable lvl 4,5
- Practice Range lvl 4,5
- + Any errors to be fixed reported by Kagemusha after he puts the buildings ingame
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Wow! these buildings look great!! do u have references for most of the buildings, or just the castles? cuz the teppo factory looked much more like a barracks than a factory, even tho it still looked awesome. i particularly like the watchmans house, it looks really cool^_^
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Well, I do have reference for most buildings yes :) But not the Teppo I'm afraid, I had to make that from a Lay-out schematic Seijitai send me. So I guess you could call that a figment of my imagination ;)
Don't be distracted by the armor though, that was really used to test teppo rifles.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
ok, so i did some quick research, and while i wasnt able to find any layouts, a found a decent number of pictures:

and this one here, the pictures better on the site: 国友一貫斎屋敷
one thing i was able to tell, is that theres no courtyard, they were solid structures
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
The Trade Street
Well here it is (Lvl 5):
(more levels are lvl 2,3 and 4 but that will just be this only with things deleted :) )
So this was the last building, now its just fixing for me then :2thumbsup: I might make the poles of the gate red as a nice touch. Making buildings was fun, now just to edit them and now I'm just as excited as all of you are to see these baby's ingame :smash:
Now put that gamma up and enjoy the looks :laugh4:

Antisocial, whats your problem? I see you popping out here and there in this mod forum taking shots at the mod team, in which once you were part of also. If you dont have anything meaningful to say, please stay out, its not if this mod team is competing with CA in any way, but i dont think that trolling of yours helps anything either.:inquisitive:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
, i would not mind waiting till ca relased 20 games and ran no jidai still not beign released, as it is such and awsome mod i think it would be worth the wait.
P.S Kage, i am not sure what happend about the lod models but whenever u need me just pm me

Sorry if you took it that way. I'm not trying to be offensive. I was trying to be humorous and interject some life into this forum. It was suppose to be an ironic statement since this mod has been in development for so long. I guess people aren't taking it that way so I'll get rid of it.
I also didn't really consider it trolling since barely anything happens in this forum anyways. Its not like there's anyway to not keep 'poping up' in a forum that averages single digit posts a month. What am I suppose to post in? No academic debates, no feature discussion, no unit discussion, no faction discussion, no real hype.
Its seems you guys have gotten everything you want down and are just putting it together in a detailed and methodical way. :2thumbsup: Though if I were still on the team, I would push for some content release since the fans have been around for a long time and deserve to have some stuff given to them for waiting so long and patiently. Maybe make a second video to show the progress you've made. But that's your choice.
But all the same, sorry. Once again, I didn't think you would take it that way and didn't even think about offending you. :no:
:oops:
Hope it comes out soon and keep up the good work. Its just kinda sad and frustrating to see the forum so dead.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
:oops: I've mostly kept the TWC forum updated, where, truth is that it is much more active back there.... I'll get those posts here then! :bow:

Ok. Sorry for that outburst munky.:embarassed: Im so tied up in coding that i dont have time for any pr stuff, so we will be ready one day. Our PR guy Seijitai got a new children with his wife, so he hasnt been active in bit either. We will try to make more updates here in Org forum also in the future. I guess we might have oriented on TWC a lot lately compared to this forum. Hopefully this will chance.:yes:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
No its cool. It wasn't the most tactful thing ever. ;)
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Little Update for the team and community,
Just send the last building to Kagemusha tha Coder. So it's officialy in his hands :laugh4:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
So if we want to ask someone the release date, we should stop asking you? :-D
How many buildings did you get to do?
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Lol indeed :yes:
With building levels included I had the honor of doing 29 buildings for the mod :beam:

Chicken and egg. Updated forum = discussion.

Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Really looks great imo, and now I know the you guys post more on a different forum >.<; oh well I guess I'll head that way asap.
Question, will any of the textures change based on the controlling faction? While there is no real need for it, it would be cool to see little laterns or banners representing the owning faction XD
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
That idea is a nice, useless, touch, and it won't be in for the first release.... Later, maybe, but I highly doubt it.
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
yup that's what I figured, I didn't mean it as a suggestion so much as out of curiosity XD Believe me I'm not keen on giving you guys extra work haha
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
How's work on the Stables and the Walls. Haven't seen your Walls yet. Can they be mounted like Rome's walls?
Also will there be Japanese Houses, pagodas, temples and stuff?
I haven't seen such good buildings since Helm's Deep by Thor the Bassist.
I wanna live in those buildings of yours lol :egypt:
-
Re: RNJ Buildings Progress Thread
Thnx for the comment :smash:
Stables, Practice Range,Walls,Towers,Temple were done already by Prometheus(They were done before my time)
I'm sorry but I don't have those pictures here :sweatdrop:, on the TWC forums you can find them in the Buildings thread :2thumbsup:
Mounting of walls and such I can't tell ya, I'm just modelling and texturing them, the coding stuff isn't done by me. But if I remember correctly there is a "Siege" thread here or on the TWC forum where you can find the answer to that question:yes:
