moon cities

**moon cities -** 09-20-2006, 08:04 PM

I'm making a world called moon citeis it has the moon's template with some city terrians and buildings,cars,ships,etc but it might lag because right now I copied the ground 3 times (might change it lower or higher) and it'll probaly take awhile when it's done I'll make it so you can download it on this thread.(but could some1 tell me how to make it so you can download it here?)

Next time you type a message, scroll down below the typing window. Just down there, underneath Additional Options, lies a button called Manage Attachments. If you wish to submit a file, you can do it in raw .a2w files, but out of consideration for people on dialup, I suggest you package all items in a .zip file, no to exceed 15 MB. TTFN!

Thanks for telling me that Mr.Nemo. btw I'm not entirely sure exactly what I want in this world so I have no idea for all I know the sun might blow up and destroy the Earth by the time it's finished. And I know what you mean consideratoin for those with dail up one time when I treid to download something the estimated time said it would take days and someone will call between 5 days...*sigh*the horrors of dail up.

No offense intended but I think you may have taken a bigger step than you realized jumping right into Alice from video games. I recommend you also take a look at Pivot, http://www.geocities.com/peter_bone_uk/pivot.html. It's a 2D stick figure animation program that has a large and active users forum - which can help you get familiar with the basics before jumping into 3D - and also you won't be bugged by processor speed and memory problems. It's not lost time either - you can have a billboard with your stick figures running across your neat 3D world kicking butt or whatever (look at how they do the "FireAnim" special effect in Alice - it might work for your sun blowing up).

not really a game maybe once versoin one's made might make into one but mostly just watch for now (the only thing can move other than the camera is just move a object around).

Well it sounds like you are doing better than I am, I'm still struggling to get one of the fairies to walk.

Now this is gonna turn out a little cheap, but I've been trying to look at some explosion effects, and the best (and simplest) one I've found useful is just placing a high-poly sphere in ground zero and resizing it to some large size, like 10 or 15 or something like that.

Also, just a thought, import a texture of fire for the sphere for some kudos points.
