The preview thread

[Kyriakos]

Out of sheer boredom, since i would first have to create the cityscreen icons...

This is a possible ancient colony:

 

[Jerry'sGoldfish]

colony is rather a fortified city set somewhere in hostile territory, i may say hostile since the majority of the contacts where first warlike, the natives did'nt wanted to be shadowed by anybody

 

[Kyriakos]

A map of the culture lines which have at least two sets already:

 

[WWTVICTOR]

Wow, that's awesome.
You can create a British culture line too if my memories are not blurred
You can also use your Mughal design as the Industrial set of the Middle Eastern one

 

[Kyriakos]

Both english sets (the anglo-saxon, and the medieval english) were erased since they were not of adequate quality imo. But i might create an american set for the industrial era, and then a celtic set as the ancient w. european one

 

[crazyanswer]

They are great. it is a pity we cant use all of them.

 

[Kyriakos]

I am already bigger than this game

Anyway, i plan to create also the following:

-Ancient W. European (Celtic)
-Ancient Central Asian (Mongolian) (the medieval central asian is the Tibetan set)
-Industrial middle eastern (Egyptian)
-Industrial Japanese
-Industrial American (USA)

Then i might move on to ww1 cities

Then i might move on to ww1 cities

 

[nick0515]

Wow two industrial sets released. Where did that come from? They look great. I see you decided to go with no factory smoke stacks.

Some ww1 cities would be great.

The problem with having your cities is that most other city graphics look terrible in comparison, meaning that in an epic game you enevitably have to have some cultures/eras with terrible graphics along side your masterpieces.

Hm, this is the White House. I will still try to make a US set, but might abandon it since i cannot find any decent concept art for the houses/apartment buildings...

 

[RickFGS]

Could you make a medieval Lisbon/Portugal city set...

Spoiler :

 

[Kyriakos]

Yes i can, and mean to, after all Fernando Pessoa is one of my favorite writers

But i will need some more pics

I just had an entirely original idea, to unite all previews in this thread ( :/ )

Anyway, i will be posting some polls from time to time though, ideally i would want to post at least 13 polls about my entire work, but in reality i will just be making one per month i guess

The Khmer set is destroying my computer it seems, so i will probably persist in order to do or die. However Eset just found 3 viri in my computer, so it is almost certain that they were causing at least most of the problem.

I still lost all my neatly categorized bits and pieces of my old models, so now have to create a new library, from stuff i have in object form already. This is boring work.

 

[Jerry'sGoldfish]

render the parts separately, and bring them together in photoshop......

you should do the preview thread, like tom3305 did. very usefull. if you need something master kyrikos has a list of products...

 

[Kyriakos]

I think this is one of my best ever:

 

[Vuldacon]

Kyriakos... That looks Great!

 

[Kyriakos]

Thank you Vuldacon

Problem with the set is that it still is around 500K polygons, but i am back to using good-old Bryce 6.1 which crashes a lot less than horrible Bryce 7 PLE...

 

[Wolfshade]

I think this is one of my best ever:

Confirm! Thank you! for your tireless work, Kyr!
