Metal framed mlitary bed model needed. (image inside)

Hey!

I’d need a model that looks like this.

My 3D modeling skills are… uh… non-existant :smiley:

Can anyone help?

Googlelizing didn’t give me joy though I found some pretty models (tanks, planes, etc) but at between 10K to 79K polys/faces… hardly the kind of stuff to include in a map :smiley:

you could make it out of thin patch cylinders and rectangle brushes, even the rolled up bedding could be made in radiant with patch meshes… it would also be easier to tex then skinning a model in a 3d app like max.

Yeah I could but models are so much nicer too look at! :smiley:

I guess I’ll wait a bit just in case some modeller wants to give a hand… :slight_smile:

Bunk beds :frowning:

It’s for the hospital part of the map… I don’t think they used bunk beds :smiley:

Thanks for the prefab though. I’ll take care of it :smiley:

@MadJack, if the prefabs iffy gave you links for, are brush and or patch work, then surely you can chop off the top of the bunk beds leaving you with just the bottom ones? even a newbie mapper could do that :wink:

Hey I’ve got tons of brush cutting already :stuck_out_tongue: Gimme some slack :smiley:

kidding aside, yeah I know about that…

What I’d like to find is a, low, tubular-framed-with-canvas-like-matress bed. Well… a medic/field bed :smiley:

But, yeah you’re right… I’ll tweak with the prefab if I can’t find that…

Slight topic change… I need a drain texture… Anyone seen anything like that? :smiley:

PS: I just wished I had some artistic talent at making models/textures… Would be so much easier :frowning:

hi!
Drain texture, what is that?
Cutting is cool, though. I remember when I learned to use it.
It is the “x” button, for those that haven’t found it yet.

Good luck!

A texture that have a drain (shower drain… bathtub drain… sink drain) :smiley:

I though the vent texture would look ok but… NO! :smiley: lol :wink:

Hey I’ve got tons of brush cutting already Gimme some slack :smiley:

hee hee, np, I was just offering some friendly ratty advice :wink:

seriously though, if you really cant find an alpha channeled or additive blend drain decal, then Ill make you one, shouldnt take me long at all and Ive got to make one for my own project.

(MadJack) #11

Thanks Ratty :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ll wait for that drain. It’s no rush… It’ll just be an addition to the decontamination area… can’t have a drain in a decon area now can we? :smiley: lol

(pgh) #12

Drain texture and prefab i think with Wolftactics mod… remember there being one on the Rock port.

(ratty redemption) #13

@MadJack, just remind me when you need it, and decide if you want it old and rusty looking, or shiny steel looking, or two versions, their both easy for me to do in psp7.

(MadJack) #14

Ratty, huh… a somewhat clean drain. Not too shiny though. Like it’s been used and have some deposits on it (calcium or whatever) would look great. Maybe a touch of rust here and there but since it’s used in the building it should be clean. Actually, nevermind that. Shiny clean will be it because it’s in the decontamination area beside sickbay, it should be very clean. Yeah.

Make it so :wink: lol

oh and I meant: can’t have a decon area without a drain… I guess I was getting sleep deprived :wink: lol

(ratty redemption) #15

@MadJack, understood and I can always alter it afterwards, as Ill be adding any metal highlights, dirt, rust, what ever as separate layers in psp7, so its not like Id have to keep alter the original drain, just the odd additional layer, and its all good practice for me.

and when you do think your have the rest of your room ready for this decal? I could start on it after the weekend if other things Im working on go well, although Im finishing off a small water test map that NOP and I were working on first.

(MadJack) #16

The room is almost finished but what’s left to be done will be done much later. I’m working on the continuity of the whole map first then I’ll work on detailing. As of now, I’m working on the next room connected to that decontamination area so, no big rush. Go on with your projects :slight_smile:

(ratty redemption) #17

k, but if I forget and your nearing completion of your map, remind me, and I`ll definitely make it for you :slight_smile:

(MadJack) #18

Alright, I’ll constantly post so you’ll be reminded of me and my texture :wink:

btw, the map is … huh… 30-40% on its way to big time boo’ing lol :wink: Just keep an eye on a military bed… :smiley:
