Title: Skydome Pack #1
Post by: Enceladus on June 02, 2008, 12:56:58 AM
Skydome Pack #1

I ahve created a pack of 3 skydomes. They are availablein the EAW and More Member's Only Section for download. http://eawandmore.freesmf.org/index.php
The download includes the models and skins (and the hex editing is done already). THERE ARE NO XMLS INCLUDED. YOU MUST CODE THESE IN YOURSELF. On this note remember that these are secondary space skydomes, not primary. They are nebulas. If you are to use these in a mod or map you must credit me Enceladus. You must also notify me via PM or email at Enceladus_life@hotmail.com .

Note:
Just a note on the first image, there aren't supposed to be any stars, that's just an early image I did with stars in my graphics editor. Then I realized secondary skydomes don't need stars. That's what the primary skydomes are for.

Here are some previews(watermarked for a good reason):

First one looks good, but if I'm being honest the second and third look very 80's.

hmmm i have to agree with arb. the first one looks like space, and the other two look like an acid trip....too much yellow in the 3rd and too much red in the 2nd.

I agree about the second two. I was still experimenting. But here's a preview of some new ones I have created.

those are better, but i think there should be more black space. the secondary skydome shouldnt dominate the space background, it's just supposed to make the background a little less boring.
i say a little less of the nebula and more of just space, that makes it seems more realistic. but thats me.

the second one is the best from these new ones.

The main issue is most of them seem to lack starts.

There is a reason there are no stars. These are SECONDARY skydomes. They are only supposed to be nebulas. Stars are the purpose of the PRIMARY skydomes. Ingame shots:
