Actaully I have 19" LCD monitor (1440x900), that transmap might be one of those optical illusion's
And yes I to can see the people in the MUSE pic, but they blend in too well

Hmm... OK, this next solution might be a bit out there, but maybe the effect comes from whatever color your eyes are.
My eyes are blue, and I can see the illusion... are yours blue also? If so, I'm guessing that thecolclough's might be a different color...
If I'm wrong here, I'll give up on making assumptions :)

And yes, they are supposed to blend like that... I want them only to be visible if you are really trying to find them, like you and thecolclough have done.

Yay my thread is over to two pages! Thanks guys! :)

i agree that this idea is a bit out there, but hey, you never know...

Yay my thread is over to two pages! Thanks guys! :)

tanzim had a similar issue, but he didn't say it actually looked like it was raining.

as for your other question, eco, i don't really do swimming, but i'll come and sit in one of the deckchairs with a lemonade or something 8)

No, their black, I doubt eye color has anything to do with it, eye color is more to do with your heritage and genetics.
My guess is it's probably how we use your brains, according to this test http://www.web-us.com/brain/braindominance.htm, I use my right hemisphere, thecolclough probably uses his left, like most of the worlds population.
But we should stop with this off-topic-ness.

Your images are great :) I love the first one xD the city background adds so much realism. The timbers on the roof seem to have stretched texture maps ... Try using UV to make the texture face X, Y and Z co-ordinates :)

http://www.anim8or.com/smf/index.php?topic=435.0

check out this topic ... It has info regarding UV Mapping

i like the rain effect as well :) Very nice indeed. I know Terranim8or has a rain particle tool but ive never mastered Terranim8or very well. On the link above you will find a similiar trans and ambience technique to create leaves :D

Just go through the pages of the topic. Theres a few lol

Very good pics :)

You fancy helping out designing my game, CydoniaKnight?
This is to CydoniaKnight - what bumpmap did you use? I want to create a huge vast sea scape but my map isnt big enough

Tanzim, that brain test is interesting... I also use my right side more. And yes, you are right about this being off-topic. We shall stop now.

Thanks DressedForSucess, I'll read through that topic... I like lots of reading. :)
Oh, and for my water I believe I made and used this bumpmap:



It isn't very flash... Its just a blurry paint image, but under the correct lighting its looks alright.
You could probably find a better one on Google.  ;)

And, I'm sorry but I wont be able to help with your game. I have many other commitments, and plus my new school term has just started so I've got a few assessments to focus on. But feel free to ask if you need anything from me, I'd be happy to provide some things, but just not as a permanent addition to your team.

And Eco... looks like it will just be you, me and colclough at the pool!
I'll need to find another deck chair though... We'll need more than two for when we exit the pool :)
Unless you'd rather share... (I'm just joking don't worry :P)
Anyway, the lemonade is plentiful and the sun is high! Any more takers? Will be a good pool party! :D

I'm happy to help, DressedForSucess :)

And thanks almost cool... good word for the pool by the way. Nothing like a bit of gelatinous water! :D

MUSE fan? Yay! I knew there would be at least one here on the Anim8or forums... ;)

I like them :D

One flaw though, there's something weird looking about the shadows in the pool scene: they just seem too clean and well defined. I would have tried for softer shadows (blurred edges).

the main reason I'm posting here is the 'naval' scene. You say you have made that silhouetted ship, would you mind posting a better picture of that? I am trying to do a largish wooden ship of a similar style, and am curious to see how you did it.
