Sticks & Twigs - Not just for Breakfast Anymore

by Alan James · 05/04/2008 (9:41 pm) · 26 comments

Ok, so that doesn't make a lot of sense, but neither does an environment pack called "Sticks & Twigs", it was a nickname that Kyle and I gave it and it stuck.

So what is this Plan about anyway? Well some folks have expressed interest in what Kyle and I have in store next, and so I thought I'd show a bunch of screens from our next pack that we will be releasing: the Sticks & Twigs: RRGTS Environment Pack.

What I wanted to do with this particular pack was create a all inclusive solution that includes currently over 60 unique trees, 200(!) billboard foliage pngs (grass, dead plants, etc.), over 24 ferns, more that 18 bushes and shrubs, at least 24 types of rocks, well over 100 terrain and ground detail textures, water lilies, mushrooms, 2 dozen Terragen rendered skyboxes, and twelve ambient audio tracks.

Not only with this massive (dare I say "monster"?) amount of content, I've put together 24 mission files that have sample content and environments for super fast prototyping and level development.

There are two other packs we are working hard at getting together also, but that's for another day. So here are a couple dozen sample screens of various missions that will be included in the pack, these are all captured in stock TGE 1.5.2. Keep an eye out on www.monsterpacks.com for this upcoming pack. It is nearly finished, and if all goes well it should be completed this week. I'm sure I'll let you all know...
