Hello all, Im currently working on building the Castle at Masyaf in assassins creed 1. What im stuck on is whats the best way to create the lighting effect in the following pic: http://firsthour.net/screenshots/assassins-creed/assassins-creed-altair-masyaf-castle.jpg also, whats the best way to get that effect of it being built into the surrounding rock? cos if its by individual hand placment and cutting thats gonna be one huge job :eek: lol not sure is there was a good cheat to use on this. Any advice would be awsome.
Page not found on the picture, so its kinda hard to help you.
I see you like Assassins Creed :D I bet you'll like my new Saber hilt :
some of my friends have been asking me for a while to do this and so i've modeled it in a half hour
I've finished it 5 minutes ago now It just needs new UV maps and textures then I can release it
if you want to test it before the othe rpeople then PM me it would be helpfull if some people could actually hlep me with the bug finding when I'm done with texturing it
Same, that spoiler failed hard :P

well about the Rock thing there's a simple way to do it first you need an terrain generator for GTK Radiant like easy gen
then use easy gen to create a rock-like terrain
then save it as.map and import it in your Masyaf.map file you'll see the terrain as tons of brushes
now you just have to select your whole castle ,move it to the center of the terrain and click CSG substract
andf tadaa your castle is surrounded by the rocks you should add some misc_model entities with various rock models (dont forget to put them in clip brushes [brushes with the ''clip'' texture]) to increase realism
Hi, thanks for the responses sorry for the dodgy link :eek: this should work: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a157/chaosmalice/assassins-creed-altair-masyaf-castl.jpg Basically for the lighting i want to know the best way to create natural sunlight and have the sun/ light coming form the front direction, this should then cast the shadows in the court yard and such. AshuraDX: Thanks for the advice on the terrain, is easy gen quite simple to use? also id love to test out your neat saber hilt :bows: just a shame no one will make the model of Altier:Puzzled: anywho, hope that screenie gets the idea for the lighting accross.
