So, what have people made so far? Is there a running list of contributions?

No list AFAIK, but there are a number of great looking submissions now, so I think it would be a good time to move ahead. Accept some finished items, green-light some WIPs, let people officially claim things from the content list, etc.

Also, the original post was last edited a month ago, so maybe it could be updated to add the new contributors?

Great job.

In the future, you should actually explain the issue instead of trying to be witty about it.

"Great job trying to post an image from a site that doesn't allow hotlinking?"

as in, I googled "tall pines with snow" clicked it, clicked "view image" and thought "this should work as it always has since I've never had a problem with copy/pasting images." then put it on here. I saw the image as normal and had no idea it was actually not visible for anyone else. I apologize for not knowing an image site's rules. Sorry!

And I'm sorry for being an asshole. Just in general.

Is anybody doing an icy version of the big radio tower and it's 1/16th size skybox brother (the one we see on Gravelpit and Watchtower). We need one. With icicles hanging all over the place.

I want to drop an update on my progress with particles as I havent given any information on that for a while (life is busy at the moment). But here are some screenshots showing the Work In Progress of the particles

Aurora
Snow(Normal)
Snow(Blizzard)
Steam(Normal_Small)
Steam (Normal_Big)

No Steam for the train yet, that will be attended to soon. Do you guys think that the particle counts on the snow are to high?, its only for a 256x256 square. I think I might have exaggerated a 'bit' on the amount.

I want to know the difference between snow and blizzard. From the screenshots they look exactly the same.

But that aurora though. Amazing. I recon it's large enough to be put in a skybox the size of, well, lets say Badwater or Barnblitz?

Just judging from the screenshots, there's more snow falling in blizzard. It might also move faster.

Also, do we have a night version of the sky_morningsnow_01 skybox(used on Viaduct) in the making? I particularly like the visible wind gusts with snow in them.

This is exactly what they do

I made 2 sizes, one that is 32 units long and another one that is 64 units long. Which really translates to them being 512-1024 HU long since its supposed to be in the skybox

Aurora

Would it be possible for you to record some gifs? I'd love for it to look more ribbon like, like real auroras but it might be that way when it moves.

Also, I know the EotL team made some unused aurora unusual effects, maybe someone could talk to them?

I think it was Chaofanatic that did the particles.

(if it helps)

I just got the particle from Tacoman_. I'll have a test map up with it and I'll record a video of it showing it off by the end of this day probably.

Ok make that tomorrow. I'm all done for today. Worked hard, now tired.

 

[Vel0city]

Here, have some more mapping inspiration.

Fooled ya, it's here actually.

Just making a quick update here since I haven't updated the thread in a while.

I've been super busy with things lately but rest assured I will update the thread in early May. I have some things planned.
