    The promos make it seem tiny.... WOW.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    it can be loaded bit by bit, right? i don't have to load the entire thing if I don't want to? (my poor computer would probably curl up and die!)

    Yeah, he provided presets to just load sections of it. :) He also provided both Iray and 3Delight mats as well as standard mats AND high res mats for both rendering formats.

    Yeah, imo the promos definitely didn't show the full scope of the set - as it really shocked me how big it was when I was setting up the scene. I first loaded it and wasn't paying much attention yet, then added my character to the scene - and COULDN'T FIND HER. lol It was so big that she got totally lost. hehe

    One of the promos hinted at the scope of this, but I didn't notice in the promo that it appears t have entrance stairs on all four sides.

    Yeah, all four sides are the same - but you don't have to load all of it, you can just load one side if you want.

    Hey,

    Thanks all for the kind words.. yea, I'll be doing a couple of extra promos to show off the scale.  I kinda overlooked that - the perils of making content while worrying about the big PC anniversary!

    But glad everyone likes it :)

    You know...that would be one impressive hoard of brain eaters if it were filled to capacity....

    Heh it's funny you should say that.. one image I did think of when creating it would be a gang of survivors in the center, with a load of zombies clambeirng up all 4 sides.. (like that film, er, World War Z?)

    I used the "Absltn !Lights_Night" and a freebie HDR sky from Evermotion. (The first one I think.) :)

    I hardly ever post on DA - or go to DA for that matter. lol I do need to post there more often. 

    I often post new images on my Babes on a Budget thread though: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/86906/babes-on-a-budget#latest

    If you mean here, I never got it here either. :(

    Did your server block the two images in the original post at the top of the page?

    Can't wait to try this out.  I saw Diva's post on her thread earlier I think it was and am sincerely impressed with this.  I immediately thought Dragons myself lol.  Or Giants....  Going to get a lot of use out of this one.

    Awesome! I can totally see the dragons with this set too! It's not often we get sets that can really show off those larger figures and accommodate their sheer size. The scope of this environment can really translate to creating some truly epic art, imo. If I had one of the newer dragons I'd be doing a dragon piece too. However I only have the free dragon and the poor guy is definitely showing his age. (Although he does look pretty cool in @nattaruk's piece - covered in flames and the bright light of the fire). :)

    Haven't installed this yet, have to give it a go tomorrow. Much bigger and better than I thought it was — I'm beginning to get scene ideas already.
