Today i'll be showing my version for water, new faces for the totem pole and a box
Have the GHZ map for reference:
So i wanted to make water based on the chao garden - it's useful for streams (512x512)
I tested it in opengl and it looked good
But i found it way too light in software so i needed to change some colours
making a variation for still water:
Here i'm making color variations for testing still water. On the left is more bluey, the middle has dsz's colours, and on the right i tried to have a "shadow" thingy effect. The colours for the left and right ended being too off in software (maybe due to the colourmap?)
I went ahead with the middle one with dsz's colourmap, since i think it looks closer to the og chronicles look
testing in opengl:
and in software
I also made new faces for the new totem pole, and added wings. (this has software water up close):
As you can see, i'm still experimenting with the right colours for it. What colour scheme do you think fits best? I'm trying to combine the teal, light blue and dark blue colours in some way... So far i picked DSZ's colours and colourmap. Thanks to that colourmap, the bluer variations turn purple and the like in software while looking good in opengl. So with DSZ's colours the water gets teal in opengl, and purply blue with teal tints in software. Maybe that fits Chronicles, i think? I'll still be tweaking the colours and colourmap of the water. As always, any suggestion and critique is appreciated.
Lastly, have this gif of new boxes:
