Hi everyone I have been modeling for a while now and thought maybe I could get some experience by building some buildings with constructor and I have no Idea what to build so just throw some Ideas at me. Like if you need something and maybe I can attempt to make it if theres problems or flaws You can spot them and I can try to fix them. So yea I'm not the best yet but hey practice makes perfect right. So yea anyway Shoot!

Ok I havent delved into the Sci fi type stuff but if I had a picture I defenetly could give it a shot. And also I wont be able to get started for a couple days because my computer is not working but I'll fix that in a jiffy. Edward so Military base stuff like world war 2 or modern? Bunkers and such?

Like Halo, or Gears of War, or a High Science Fiction setting. Everyone does WW2, Fantasy, and Modern, but we dont see very many Science fiction military settings. or Ruins.

Try making "castle pieces" to load into Torque so people can put together their own castles. Should be a good exercise. Especially if there are hallways and rooms that the player could actually walk inside.(doesn't have to be a castle theme). Don't forget the portals(not teleporters).

Portals?

Ok Like Halo Style sure should be fun and also I love building Castles so that would be fun to.

Yea what about the portals? I'm not sure what they are, are they to do with Torque or Constructor?

Portals are subzones in DIFs, that have alot of benifits, i recommend you take some time to learn how to make them.

This should get you started with how portals work and how they work in constructor.

K I threw together A quick model today check it out at torquetutorials.110mb.com/index.php?p=1_5_Models I dont know It doesnt seem very Sci Fi but I need some feedback Maybe something that would make it more sci Fi. I'm going to get some Halo Screen shots to see if I can get something there. But yea also any sugestions on how to make it look better more detail and stuff.
