Dia Dos: 'Una Paleta en Blanco'

Hola!

Here's the second day of progress on Arroyo Seco. The original terrain file I'm using didn't tile well, so I tweaked the TGE version until it did. From TGE the terrain was exported as a heightmap and then imported it into the Torque3D project.

Here's the terrain as a wireframe:




Here's with a 'metro' [ruler] material. I use this as a guide to make sure the gameplay elements are exactly the same for fairness:






Once the terrain was in, I merged the cliff assets I had on hand into the project, and began adding them to the level. Dan Keller's mod was indispensable for 'feathering' in the terrain to match the cliffs. To insure that my gameplay would remain balanced, I also imported the TGE interiors I used as the team bases. These are only placeholders for now - I'll lose these as soon as I have better looking models ready. Here's with a couple of RRGTS cliffs and a ball base:






In addition to level geometry, I added in the markers and spawnpoints for two team gameplay. While I was at it, I just had to be a feature creep and merged in Daniel Buckmaster's 'Walkabout' navigation addon!!!
