[WIP] Pawno's Emporium in UDK
polycounter lvl 7
I'm currently remaking Pawno's Emporium from the N64 game Banjo-Tooie in UDK, for use in my application to Swedish uni. I'm definitely a newbie to this whole "make stuff in 3d" thing, only done it for about a year, so any critique you can give me is welcome, but you're not likely to see any major changes before Dec 1st as that's my deadline - except of course, if you can suggest any props I should put on the shelves and such.
I'm well aware that the wood looks like... crap, at the moment, but I don't think I have time to fix it before the deadline if I want to fit in more stuff.
Thanks for taking a look!
For reference, here's Pawno's Emporium in Banjo-Tooie:

As @Anthy9986 mentioned, the eggs and feathers are a good bet.
It looks good, but I think the main problem is that you are not looking at your reference enough.
For instance, the brickwork is entirely different in Banjo-Tooie than your scene. And the table is made from a stretched version of the same texture, rather than the pale stone/wood that you have.
There are also beams on the ceiling. Although I like what you have done with the windows and I think they look better than the original.
I hope that helps, I truly love these games and can't wait to see what you do with the scene
I actually made a spinning animated version of it... but I have no idea how to get the animated version placed into the scene.
You can then change it's Physics to 'PHYS_Rotating' in the object properties (select the object and press F4) and set a value in its 'Rotation Rate'.
Hourences has a good explanation of animating simple objects such as this
Awesome, thank you so much.
The reason I'm not following the original all that much texture-wise is because many of the texture choices were made because of performance considerations - the bench texture is just a stretched floor texture, for example.
So, here's a little bit of progress. The beams really helped it:
I like the feathers, although they might benefit from being a bit bigger.
You could put some musical notes on the shelf close to the camera and perhaps the B-K logo on one of the storage boxes too, like this:
Keep up the good work!
