Penumbra in Sims 3

[eiahmon]

Quick update.

Kitchen/dining area is done, though it would be funny if I could find a saw to stick on the shelf there.


Doesn't that just make you wanna rush in there and cook yourself something to eat?


The floor and walls in the airlock area are taken care of. I need to add the ceiling tiles later, and at some point I need to tinker with the fog emitter and see if it has a command to fill the area up with smoke or something. The fog emitter is pretty cool and can be used to create all sorts of visual effects. I used it to make steam rise from a "volcanic" lake, and at one point used three of them to create a tornadic supercell thunderstorm on a lot. So I'm hoping out of its hundreds of different commands, there is one that will work for this.

Yet again, it's telling me that I tried to post six images. Someone really needs to teach the php bb how to count. XD

The library is in progress. The walls didn't come out near as good as I had hoped, though I'm not totally surprised. Even with bump maps and such, the Sims 3 is not truly capable of making walls look 3D, nor can it use lighting effects to make light and dark areas on walls. Soon, I need to go into Penumbra and get a good layout of the book shelves and their color. The silver sphere you see in the small room is a tomb marker, and once in actuall play mode (Instead of build or buy mode) it will hide that room, and it won't be visible until a sim actually walks in there.


:p I'm loving this. XD
