Uhh... Terraining?

Hey all, i was just wondering if anybody here is a terrainer. I am looking for some examples that i can study by, and i was wondering why there isn't a terraining thread/section in these forums.

 

Do you mean Custom Terrain? or ISOM, or both mixed together..

Take this for instant..

This was a custom design of a battle arena by me..

But a nice example is:

Cresent Dyne, fully customized.

 

thanks for the examples, moogle! so you do your own custom terrain for your rpg's?

and im talking about blending and stuff related to that.

 

.....How'd you stack the beacon, Shield Generator, and Pylon?

 

scmdraft or starforge... he placed the beacon, then placed a pylon with the bottom tip in the center of the beacon, then placed the shield battery directly over the beacon. voila!

 

I used X-Tra, in that area beacon = cloaked, same as shield battery. Pylon is removed afterwards. =/

But Scmdraft / Starforge / X-Tra let you stack stuff.

 

ew, you said the x-word! (i dont like x-tra, so i dont ever talk about it)

 

I'm old school, using X-Tra ^_^ as well campaign editor.. woot!

 

ew ru serious?

i use scmdraft (rarely), starforge (for triggers, rectangular terraining), campaign editor (normal terrain).

what are the differences between scmdraft and starforge, regarding square terraining? does one work better than the other?

 

I rather use Scmdraft, over starforge. but thats me. I use scmdraft sometimes when I am triggering. Differences is scmdraft was updated more then starforge =/ I can use scmdraft for every aspect. But I just like to use X-Tra / Campaign editor in boredom sake.
