Let see! I realized that we haven't enough meshes for forests, we need much much much more 3D models. If you know how to use 3Ds max (or other Autodesk's program) or Blender you are very welcome to make meshes with us!
What kind of meshes we need?¨
1. Bushes,
you should know or learn to make leafs and stuff with plane objects.
example.
Bushes are that what make forests look a like forest.
Tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxqGoBP19dQ this how I make, this guy use white back ground for texture, I use same colour as texture is. White make white lines for objects.
2. Trees.
Unique looking trees, we have fir trees and basic trees.
Examples, use references and your imagination! Tree dens and that kind of useful trees are really welcome!
3. Rocks and stones.
Really big rocks too!
4. Dens.
Use your imagination, everything is possible!
Example how to design den:
5. Random stuff,
something what would be interesting to see, something special!
About 3D models:
They should be as low poly meshes as possible. This is online game and stuff what we use should be light. Using planes with leafs and branches is fastest and lightest way to make meshes. I can help with you if you use 3Ds max.
About textures:
Do not steal random photos for textures! All textures should be legal, best way is use own camera. Of course quality should be best as possible. If texture is swung or inaccurate, don't use it.
Here wolves can send pictures of interesting forest stuff pictures and let's see if someone would help to make them!
When your models are ready, send them to my email slsu@hotmail.fi
