Comparing Castles

Today I was trying to make a big castle age, and after exporting it for the first time, I noticed that the textures were stretched, the towers weren't textured, and it was a bit too small. I then thought to myself "man... I wish somebody else could finish this age for me..." and then it hit me; Maybe they could! I could put the file up for dowload, and they could play with it, perhaps add some furniture, a celing, maybe change/fix the textures, add a sky, etc. so, I'm putting the blendfile up for download, and u guys can do what you want with it, just don't change the overall concept of it. whoever finishes it, pleese post the age here, so I can see just what you guys can do with it. It'll be fun to compare people's changes. Forgive me if this is a stupid Idea, and If u don't get wat I'm saying please say so :P here's the blendfile: http://www.mediafire.com/?bmf9idygg8t

I'll take a look at it Justin, for the fun of it.

I redid the castle and ground to be polygon-efficient and made an absolutely terrible parapet (I would've, in any other case, deleted it and started over--but I wanted to get this uploaded and keep my additions minimal :)).

Hope my additions are appreciated when this is a great Age. :D

Quick! Someone! Redo and attach my parapet! :)

Kewl :D i tried adding something like that, but yours looks much better :D I'll probably make two of those, and then make a Moat and drawbridge.

Well, I was bored. Thought I'd join in a little. a few simple parapets and a moat. :P

it was a bit too small


Have you tried importing an avatar from Uru to keep in mind how things need to be sized? I know of several people (including myself) who have imported Rand's avatar and use it in the initial creation of our ages to get a sense of how big/small structures in the world need to be.

Just a suggestion if you haven't already tried it :)

Mmm, nice texture. Mapped the turrets, and enabled lighting on the textured faces. ;)
