Helter Skullter

Hey all,

Didn't want you to think I've just been doing boring work......

Here's a section of the map from a new MJ mansion. And GASP!!!! yes you're seeing standard graphics. This is an experiment along the lines that Freddy proposed. A mansion that could be played either custom or standard. It won't be that big, may 40-60 rooms. And I decided to go WAY out on a female character. This isn't Jill, it's Shimi, daughter of Leia. No space based adventure but a futuristic Dune type custom side to Helter Skullter. We'll see...

Shimi. The colors look very good against desert sand colors and will help with edge fuzziness when I shrink her down to 64X64.

Wow she looks... okward...

Shimi. Hmmm. My husband may become an MM fan after all!!!!

[Wingy]

And... why is she holding a light saber? :-? This is MM, not starwars! So what if she's from starwars, but still, she's in MM now! :o

[samskelton]

she looks like a brainless zombie right now, I mean, she's staring into space! ...maybe that's why she has a lightsaber ;D

That model has huge... .. ...tracts of land!

Seriously, I liked the other one better. This one seems to be taking the Tomb Raider influence a bit too far.

Remember, this is not JILL. 3/4 of the detail will be lost at 64X64. I actually did her for a friend's daughter who is doing a comic strip project for school. When she gets put through the cartoon shaders a lot of the detail will go so the more you put in the better the final character will look because of the

hint

of detail or something like that. As soon as I can find the proper clothes for Jill I'll be doing a post of her. In a cartoon/digital reality/anime/manga world do you know how hard it is to find a non-sexed out female character mesh? I actually found one but the problem was the nose was WAY too big and other parts of her anatomy suffered from the same characteristics. There was another one that would have been PERFECT for Jack's aunt. Only problem was she was in a nurse outfit and I couldn't get rid of the stupid hat without screwing up the head mesh.

@ joeb

Helter Skullter does not ring a bell to me. Is that referring to something or someone?

The picture in your first post looks promising. Maybe just a little remark that was also an issue with Wingy's Volcanis. When there are rooms with a lot of lava, Jack is getting very slowly with older and slowlier computers. That is why Wingy made a 2nd version with less lava.
