Torque 3D Show Off Thread!

by Tom Spilman · in Torque 3D Beginner · 05/30/2009 (1:20 am) · 823 replies

I think it's about time we started a show off thread for cool Torque 3D stuff.

Screenshots are great... but a YouTube HD video gives you massive bonus points. :)

Ready... Set.... GO!

@Jacob
Nice. I like how you were able to twist our "environmental" effects to your sinister intent. You should totally hook up a PathCamera to smoothly circle around the fountain, it would be +99% sinister.

eb - No offense taken and thanks for the kudos. A lot of that is Tom Pittman our lead coder. He's all about making tools better :)

Oh, don't worry.. Like I said, this was just a very rough draft, I'm already in the process of redoing the entire thing for the first time. I'll probably redo it once or twice more too. The final product should have a MUCH higher sinister level. :)

We often don't really realize how lucky we are to have access to this stuff. This is bleeding edge lighting tech for less than the cost of a good PC.
