Rakanishu's Showcase

[Solais]

Every modeler can support the geometry of SEd, they mostly work with the same thing. You could make a geometry in a 3rd party modeller and import them into SEd1, 2, 3 of your choosing, really. SE1 is not special.

[Rakanishu]

Though yes, but it also has some limits.

[Buzzy]

lovely landscape

[Rakanishu]

Thanks for feedbacks!

Third day picture - time spent: about 7-8 hours

[Solais]

Cool! Reminds me of that one level from Portals.

And now I really want to see this map in HD. It is giving me ideas for Extended.

[serioustime]

Looks like the Moon Mountains level from TFE, only much cooler.

[Buzzy]

What Moon Mountains should have looked like (including the giant waterfall circle) and the egyptian statues replacing the mayan statues.

Pain.net? D:

Nevertheless awesome work here!

[Artificia1]

Now that's something impressive, I really like it. Keep it up.

[Yukaraj]

This looks really nice.
Harpy spam, anyone?

[Rakanishu]

Hey guys, I'm having many projects started for both SSC & SSHD, but I don't have much time to work and I have time my mood is not ready to work :[
So, see you a next day! Thanks for reading.

[Rakanishu]

Quick information:

These days, I didn't have much time to work again on my maps (Classics, HD...), I will find some time to get working on it, because I'm pretty rowing (if you see what I mean).

Everyday's evenings, I will do some efforts and continue my projects. I've started weeks ago a Deahtmatch map for SSHD, which is a remake of an already existing map among the classics community made maps, that one is [DM] Deck 17 originally created by Kot Begemot, a Russian mapper if I'm right.
Anyway, I've ported all the polygons and am remaking this map in SSHD, all the credits will go to him of course.

Once Deck 17 will be done. I will get working on my campaign for Serious Sam Classic again, and some screens will be shown.

Raka, go to Croatia, find Croteam and make maps for they

Have this something in common with the map "Deck 16" from UT?

[Rakanishu]

yeah, this guy has recreated Deck 17 for Serious Sam Classic, I am making the HD version, but I don't work on it these days, too bad....

[Rakanishu]

Anyway, today I've been back to work on the Waterfalls level. Due of the lags I couldn't really work on the map, though, I am optimizing as well for now, (mipping, visilibily bits, shadow calculation...) - I am so sorry about the long time of inactivity but stau tuned, some screens will come later !

[Rakanishu]

A little Artwork but also a prototype for an upcoming map?


Okay I don't hide I used an effect, here's the original - http://i.imgur.com/udvPJgy.jpg

Good Artwork, but i gotta to say that a half Spaceship without falling rubbles looks strange.

Maybe that ship is just eating the mountains

[Mkbewe]

Yeah, it was supposed to be Mars, but it will be Mars in my campaign
I made the Sun looking bigger in the sky to make it looking more like Science-Fiction like in Man of Steel !

[Rakanishu]

Made it by myself a month ago.

YouTube Video: Univers' Star Size Comparison - We are tiny


Each star exist in reality.

Little star size comparison from the Universe that mankind has ever discrovered
I must give some credits to my friend DMI-1407 for having created the stars textures and solar erruption models
I've made the several color star textures, and programmed this little animation, the skybox partially made by me.
I also must give credits to Stellarium's team for the textures used in the background (Pleiades),
and also to ESA/Hubble for Helix Nebula. Of course to croteam for the game and the engine used

For those whom didn't know what Apparent magnitude is : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apparent_magnitude
List and informations about the stars shown in this animation (in video's order - by size in diamater)
ly = light years

Music: Dragonfly (Dream mix)

Check the description for more informations, about stars though. I will add later in the annotaions each star's size, you should also activate them if you want to
understand the video without any problem.

EDIT: I could also post a little screen from my campaign
Damn screen did not take sun flare.

Maps looks and Concept sounds interesting, do you have a link which explains it without study Physic?

[Rakanishu]

"do you have a link which explains it without study Physic?"

What do you mean?

[Gnaarwarian]

The ratio of transmitted wiki links to the concept.

Are you talking about appearent magnitude?

[Gnaarwarian]

Yes.

[Rakanishu]

It's not hard, each star in the sky has its own brightness, and it's calculated with a number, and more the number is low, more the sky object (stars, planets...) is bright. For exemple, you have Sirius, the brightest star in the nightsky with -1.26 of appearent magnitude, and you have any other star fainter, for exemple Canopus, the second brightest, with -0.65 magnitude, and generally, stars with a magnitude over 3,5 is very hard to see with the naked eye in a completely clear nightsky.

If you want to know, Sun is about -26 of appearent magnitude and the fullmoon is about -12, You can also see Venus at south-west, which is very easy to localise with -4 of appearent magnitude !

[Mkbewe]

Nice stars
