As I am about to enter the fine tuning stage of my map I am hereby looking to expand this solo team into a duo or possibly a 3 person team. due to past experience you must have some previous experience in modding and be dedicated. I have wasted far more time on training people in UE4 and bringing them up to speed to only have them disappear.
So if you are dedicated with a little modding experience and you think this would be a interesting project and future projects to be apart of please PM on this forum
Its been a while since i posted a proper update with some screenshots so here goes, the latest area ive been working on, This area has taken abit longer as i am not making it just to get it made with the plan of coming back to fine tune it like i have with all the other area’s
Do note I have just made the exterior for the cave, It has not been detailed so dont judge it by its rough state, There is plans for a small waterfall inside, with a river leading all the way from the top of the cave to the bottom exit in the swamp along with some ruins
Eek, that repeating/tiled texture in the cave looks atrocious, no offence intended haha.
Otherwise, looking pretty snazzy. That oasis-esque area looks pretty sweet, but that aquamarine colour looks a tad off or slightly too strong or something, not quite sure what it is it just looks a little out of place in some aspect.
what problems would it cause? I have had players on north west and south east at the same time building and playing ark without any issues and these 2 points is the furthest apart
Hard to tell. Especially since Wildcard did a lot of replication tunning on their own. Worst case they run out of sync. Something is happening on the server and it never reaches the clients. They mentioned that limit at least once on a livestream and since its called limit I would not go over it. But if no one has experienced issues so far you might be good.
ocd and lots of patience to be honest, the use of copy paste also helps although going through every single node to select amount and dino category is a pain, as it takes me roughly 12 hours-15 hours straight to get a new zone of dino’s working
Yeah i can see that took a lot of work So are you copying entire rows at once, and how many dinos are spawning for each, and how are you getting them efficiently into the right sublevel? You can see I have a lot of questions, but i’m really trying to learn this stuff so any more details would be great.
I have my dino spawns sorted by landscapes, so 1 dino umap that fits with the size of the landscape (As i have 5 landscapes i have 5 dino umaps) Maybe some day in the future il move them into their own grid but thats too much work to even be considered atm. And yes i copy paste a grid by 4x8 i believe it was, any more that and the copy paste took too long and it wasn’t efficient any more (i could be wrong on those numbers)
Everybody! I am pleased to announce that B1ueDr4gon will be joining my team. He will be doing exactly the same as I have and together the complition of this map is within reach, You can already check out his work on this map at the Island located at C8. Please wish him a warm welcome
I’m super impressed! Just, wow! Will there be any flat regions for very large base building? I’m talking buildings that are 20x20 foundations roughly surrounded by smaller buildings and houses. I’m all about huge buildings and would love to see more maps that can be very accommodating for people like me that build on a grand scale! I wish I was more comfortable with my abilities to navigate the ADK so I could lend a hand. My forte is organic modeling and animation.
