I like how you made the building using many different building models. Only thing I hate about the building is the ziggurats that you placed. They stand out too much.

I've done this on a Barrens map, and I just need some feedback as to how it looks and what could be improved.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to be the worst poster ever - i'm gonna get flamed for this I know, but I did try to search, still couldn't find it so here goes. I'm unable to make the bridges look natural or even fit them inn in any possible fashion. Is there a tutorial somewhere that shows how to place bridges so they don't look - erm - messed up? :p

Sorry for this post :p

There is no problem with that post, so don't worry.

To make bridges fit in better, you could click on them and hold CTRL whilst pressing Page Down to lower them into the ground. You can also use Page Up to raise it, if you need to.

I was under the impression that Ghostwind WAS Void. It's not the first time he's posted images under that name. The watermark in the top corner is a dead giveaway, and I don't think anyone is dumb enough to pass it off as their own when there's such an obvious giveaway of the author.

Anyways, that's an awesome picture. Nice work!

Does anyone have any links to some good resolution rock models? I can't really find anything decent looking on the hive.

Experimenting with Lighting and other stuff. Initial goal was to make moon light reflect on water. But gave up. Comments?

I hope this light is not supposed to be the moon. Weird speical effect you used there. The light is also in front of the mountain, kinda weird...
The ghost itself in front of the lightning looks cool.

Always check the uber clouds after you placed them, they are often too small, like in your case. The larger one is cutting the mountain at the left edge of the screen and the other one is so small that you can actually see the circle/edge of it.

Yep, I need to fix the front part up first. I just want opinions on it currently.

Looks good Blackrose! :thup:

I would consider adding some vegetation to the front field. Maybe some boulders.



I'm considering posting some terrain...

    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
