    Ignore that whimpering noise, it's only my bank card...

    Hooboy, we could get a real sense of scale and distance with this scene!

    This is awesome. A few days ago I was putting together a scene using the Moongate, and suddenly I realized I had no idea how to put a sky in or a ground cover....so I posted as to how to do this...and now these different environments are becoming available!!! thank you so much to all you artists who spend your time creating these beautiful pieces...I can now put a sky and ground behind my scenes!! I am sure I will be purchasing each and every one of them.

    Thanks again :)

    I sooo have renders i want to do with this

    i assume there is quite a bit of modularity with this. your sets can usually be moved around quite a bit

    I love it, but where are the access ramps for the interchange.

  • FirstBastionFirstBastion Posts: 7,760
    edited December 1969

    No off ramp on this one, but there's something coming down the pipe that might be of interest. ;-)

    Lycan, you're right, there's modular components that can be easily moved around and/or mixed and matched with other FB sets or any others in the runtime. It's all about an arsenal of meshes that can come in handy in developing an image.

    In the pic below, I shifted the cliffs_east section tighter in to the road, hid the arch bridge and walkways, and used the distant cliffs from the upper approach area to fill the left side of screen. Took all of four minutes.
    (note to self, must go resurrect that mix and match thread. )

    the whole set will probably fit nicely in the Gallerie Bastion

  • FirstBastionFirstBastion Posts: 7,760
    edited December 1969

    I don't know, the guard on the bridge in the second image is at zero position, and that looks at least 80-100 feet down to the valley floor path. Unfortunately I had to reinstall my OS to factory default and haven't reinstalled all of my runtime just yet, but I'll definitely install the Gallerie and do a comparative render to see the size difference. One good thing, this entire set is parented so it can easily be resized to whatever dimensions are needed.

    you know, another mix n match would be a lot of fun....

    Another "mix and mash it up" contest? hmmm, that could happen, I could see doing that sometime in the New Year.

    Tried a completely different use for the set. Threw in a basic plane primitive and watered it up. European coastal.

    And it's gorgeous. Except I can't imagine the Royal Courier service getting horses up and down those stairs...

    Well, I suppose they could do it. But they'd be cursing you all the way.

    The mix with the hidden waterfall is spectacular.

    Beautiful...I threw it into the cart earlier so I wouldn't lose it. Off to check if I can afford it...

  • FirstBastionFirstBastion Posts: 7,760

    Thanks for the comments. I think you may have a point about the horses! Didn't consider it until you mentioned it. Perhaps there's stables just off to the side, and the rider changes mounts after a short stroll for the next lag of the journey, ( I'm just thinking aloud :-) ).

    I'm going to do a quick tutorial on how to get this HCC set lineup with the Hidden Waterfalls to produce the picture. Since the entire set is parented it is really simple to just move it into place. And then it's just a question to hide or remove the parts that are overlapping.

    Looking forward to see the movie Ivy.

    I figure I'll add this promo, somehow got left off the product page. One of the many camera angles, it gives a sense of the steepness of the lower road.

    Is that Draagonstorm's snow shader?

    Looks very cool! ; )

    jmper that looks great! I really like the sense of thickness and depth that script produces. It'd be great if a set of tire tracks could be displaced into the snow.,

    In case anyone's looking for the snow machine script: http://snarlygribbly.org/3d/forum/

    No worries...I think I could probably get the snow shader to do the same in DS. I 'll have to try when I put the order through...it's sitting there in the cart waiting for me to be able to afford it.

    That Poser only, or does it work in Studio?

    Thanks...of course it takes a real nice environment to look good!
    Tracks would be awesome as well. :)

    Poser only I'm afraid. Uses Python scripting.
