I had an idea for a centre feature for outside my apartment block, it was going to be some big steel structure with water fountains and such, but whilst playing around in sketchup i was constantly thinking how i could do it, anyway the model i did was something fairly simple:
It was just meant to be a bit artistic, differing height towers, could be representing the companys logo and that they make apartment/buildings etc
Well i put it in game and had an idea, its meant to be 2180ish and to be honest a lot of my map is still looking fairly current so im trying to get some new tech in here and there so i decided i could make it like some sort of hologram display that slowly spins round with a computer near it so after many hours fiddling around i have something like this:
It slowly rotates and i think it looks quite cool and futuristic.
Moving further out you can see this areas changed quite a lot, ive been trying to make the entrance seem more ...realistic i guess, i really wish i hadnt gone for a realistic theme its so restricting, but anyway i thought id make a simple sign up in photoshop in any old text as a placeholder then play with the material editor to make it emissive and eventually id go back and change the sign to something better but actually i might just keep it as it is, its starting to look more like a small area of a city than just some buildings :
Also been adding more custom textures to stray away from unreal, ive changed the road from looking at some photos of london and in general cities so ive split the road up to add well i guess it could be flower beds or trees or something, im also probably going to have to model some london looking lights for the centre but i just put bsp shapes in for now to get the size right:
And finally ive added some detail to one of the alley ways, still need to get some orange light and more in there but,
This map is too large, for 1 person, in comparsion to open enviroments and my ideas, its tiny, but its massive for me to make a reality and its consuming all my time, everyday and im getting quite sick of it so im looking for ways to cut down the areas ive not even got round to yet so im only left with mostly what ive got already made just to add detail and correct the lighting then i can move onto the smaller easier subway map
