Key of Ethios - Demo Town

Lord McMutton · Dec 2010

After getting some stuff implemented, I've started crafting the town you visit in the demo of Key of Ethios.

Rough map of the place:

Textures thus far:

In-game + fences

Said fence:

The river:

(Badly done right now. Haven't figured out how to make the texture scroll properly. Dunno why the bridge is messed up, either)

That bridge:

I've got this forge here:

I'm not sure how to texture it, though. I was planning on having it be mainly wood with a hay roof, but I don't think that'd be a good idea for a forge. What do you guys think?

I feel like the color range of the bridge is too vast, its almost distracting...kinda reminds me of Reeces Pieces.

The walls and area around actual hot zones should be stone, further you get from the heat source, the more wood you can use, and i'd discourage a thatched roof for a forge.

Fixed up the wood textures. Howzat?

More on the forge. Got some stone in there as advised by Re.wind

The wood is looking better. you can actually darken the tops of the beams a bit, they stick out a bit much right now. paint the edges of the wood so they have a little highlight/wear.That will help the shape tremendously.

Edit: Also what's up with Zelda?

Is this in UDK? The grass tiling needs to get fixed. That's super easy in UDK.

Throw some bolts, nails, whatever on the bridge! It's gonna fall apart.

I would steer away from the current level of saturation you have. Tone it down now and increase it after you get lighting in.

The wood is improving. Though the ends of the need some more attention.
