Buildings
« on: December 30, 2011, 07:45:05 AM »
i think that there should be more civilian buildings like new appartments with new accessories. also maybe some new rubble debris objects and new ruin types. i have picture that shows some damaged appartment buidings. i would like that clock tower thing as an accessory too. :)

also maybe some other building suggestions also.

Its a distant goal... currently we have limited resources, such as modellers, skinners, animators, OE'ers and most importantly a person with the knowledge of how to construct a fully destructible building for CoH.

Well, I don't really see where's your problem. BSS has a group of modelers who made few totally new buildings and objects. Couldn't you just ask for help or try to cooperate?

Well, BSS is a professional Mod team and I don't think they will lend us a hand. Additionally, they work on a Modern Combat mod, so we can't lend models from the because they wouldn't fit. They have enough work as it is, so getting help from them is very unlikely.

I spoke to Darkblade about this a few months back, he said that they still had to figure out how to make the roof collapse, or words to that effect. Still, I didn't see anything to suggest they've hat it figured in the Shoutcast they released, if they did they would have surely shown it off (being a CoH modding first, I certainly would have). Currently what they have is an already semi-destroyed building model that can be garrisoned, we could do the same of course but that would mean buildings would just crumble when they reach a certain amount of health, like Bunkers, instead of the destruction being gradual.

Still, as Maxi said, BSS is a professional mod group and is unlikely to help, so this doesn't solve our lack of modellers, skinners, animators and OE'ers :P

Apparently, they made it:

that reichstag on the berlin maps have a custom made roof. you cant see it across the battlefield same with the brandenburg gate, i was wondering if anyone was up to making an actual roof maybe along with other parts of the reichstag itself.

I want the Reichstag to look like this i hope other agree with me. And also you dont need an animation for the building to collapse since its superstrong, just a little building damage and such.
