Title: Non-rendered FS art!
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on July 04, 2002, 12:49:55 pm: I've talked about this before, how I made a scene using only FS2View and PSP7, much like Stealth did last week, here it is.

Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on July 05, 2002, 02:58:46 am: Well, I have started doing renders, but not FS based, its because you need 3Dx, right? But I don't have it.

Post by: Black Wolf on July 05, 2002, 04:33:33 am: Get yourself a copy of the Glitterato plugin and make a new background. Also, use something like Axion for some engine glows and suns (this does cost money, though I'm willing to bet that there are some similar free ones around). Thunder has a nice tutorial for this on SOT. Beam weapons can be done with white lines and the drop shadow thing, though this does take practice, and I have no idea how to do primary weapons fire - I really do want to know how, so if you know (and I know you do) please tell me! I've got one of my own PSP made images floating around - check that out and you'll see what all these plug ins and things can do to your image.

Post by: vyper on July 05, 2002, 09:21:08 am: where d'ya get Glitterato?
BTW Use Modelview32 it supports AA and u can also change the background and therefore get better captures.

And, BW, I think the Axion stuff you refer to is now FREEEE! ;7

Post by: Black Wolf on July 05, 2002, 09:25:30 am: It better not be free :mad:

Anyway, Glitterato is flaming Pear stuff - the demo of that is free. I can't be bothered finding a URL, but run Flaming Pear Glitterato through Google - you'll get it in the first link I'd wager.

Post by: vyper on July 05, 2002, 09:49:29 am: After a brief experiment I feel Glitterato is overkill in some areas!
But anyway, this was done in PSP7 with some free stuff:

Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on July 05, 2002, 01:44:00 pm: That's quite good, better than that one of mine, leastways. Still, your lens flare has a sqaure border to it, I don't believe that can be right.

Post by: vyper on July 05, 2002, 06:04:57 pm: Bugger! Thats my damned gamma-correction not right again - I didn't even see the square! :doh:

Does anyone else see the square???
