[RELz / WIPz] Immersive Interiors : IV - Oblivion

This is beyond cool: http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/4351/screenshot668k.jpg

this will work with open cities correct?

Yes, 100%. Everything being done is in interiors so it doesn't interfere with the outside. Though the layouts won't match for OCR cities. OCC cities will be fine.

Oh okay, I don't use that myself. Perhaps you have set some override through BOMM to cause this?

I just installed this and all I have to say is that this is an AWESOME MOD! I alway wanted to be able to see outside, and now I can! YEY! THANK YOU for it! :foodndrink:

I can't wait to see it completed and with Better Cities Patches

.

» Sun Dec 12, 2010 3:58 pm

Thanks for the kind words guys

As for Bruma I have to say that the upper floor window in the "Jerral View Inn" will provide quite a beautiful sight! I could never quite figure out as to why they put the rentable room in the cellar... making the inn's name somewhat redundant...

I haven't had the need to work with "Behave as Exterior" before, but thinking back to the Arena I can recall having lighting issues, unfortunately... however let it be known that it's only a very minor criticism, and being an engine limitation; a moot one!

One last question though, how many people are working on the mod at the moment? Just you alone?

I agree, Bruma will hopefully provide an awesome view

Yeah, it's a shame about the engine. As All Natural and Immersive Interiors are basically pushing what was originally designed for interiors issues will happen

And it's just me working on this mod. Apart from one or two beta testers who find bugs before release, I'm the only one working on the project

I don't know anything other than clicking yes to the update on starting it, and generating the notes/reports.

Sir, let me point out that all BOMM does is update the masterlist. You still have to use BOSS after updating the masterlist...either through BOMM itself, through the standalone BOSS.bat file, or via Wrye bash's icon.

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 2:28 am

Any news on this mod?

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 2:46 am

Any news on this mod?

Version 0.6.1 was released less than a week ago, which fixed a few bugs. Bruma's in the making at the moment for the 0.7 release. I'm working as fast as before, just I've not really got much to say or show at the moment. Expect Bruma in a week or so though

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 2:33 am

Keep up the good work man! You have brought new life to the cities of Cyrodiil! :celebration:

I know. I think you are confused with me replying to other people about updating via the website but not mentioning using BOMM to do it from your desktop (where I have the shortcut).

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 8:14 am

Hehe, thanks

You might have noticed that those screenshots look a bit "bare". That is that the real Bruma has snow blended in randomly to give the effect of the winter climate. As ground blending isn't possible in interiors, what I'm currently doing is putting the snowy tops of the rocks poking though the ground just enough so that it looks like snow is blending into the ground. It works quite well IMO.

I've admired all the screenshots, and of course installed the mod. And forgot about it... I've spent a lot of time in the IC recently which of course isn't done yet. Then I was in Anvil last night. WOW! :shocking: It's not often I exclaim out loud to my monitor (it annoys my wife and the cats) but my first view from an Anvil interior was one of them. Nice work!

I've got a question about your process: do you have to hand-place everything for every interior, or do you make a mock-up of the city in a spare cell and sort of cut-and-paste the objects around each interior?

Hehe, thanks. Glad to see you like the mod

In terms of how I do it, I create a mock-up of each city in an interior cell (what I call a "dummy" interior). As you can't have landscape in interiors I make the ground out of small mesh "grids". Because of this making the dummy cities is the bit that takes the longest as it's really quite difficult to do natural looking slopes when you're limited to squares and no texture blending.

http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/7021/scd.png

After the dummy city is done I copy the whole cell, including the collision boxes and black masks I use for later, and then add the dummy city into each interior cell. After rotating and matching up the interior with the exterior mesh (which almost always never match up, so some creativity is needed), the exterior mesh is deleted. I then tidy up the bits around the interior mesh to stop clipping and such, and then delete the bits you won't be able to see, in order to minimize the FPS impact. I then apply the appropriate collision, subspace and then black mask the areas around the interior. So you end up with something like this:

http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/3564/scd2.png

If there's more than one floor, I do the next floor in the same fashion. If not, I move on to the next interior. It's a time consuming process but the quality is worth it IMO.

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 6:34 am

Fantastic work, thank you SWG!!

» Mon Dec 13, 2010 6:13 am

Bruma "dummy" world completed, finally. Now to populate the interiors

http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/5742/brumaworlddummy.png

Shouldn't take too long. Two or three days at the most

» Sun Dec 12, 2010 8:03 pm

That's a pretty ingenious process you cooked up there. Even though you say it takes a lot of time, you're cranking these things out like crazy

http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/8517/screenshot661.jpg Yes, the views in Chorrol are my favorites so far. Especially during storms. You can hardly tell there's any issue with texture blending.

The only ingredient missing is actual particle based rain outside, one of the remaining holy grails.

» Sun Dec 12, 2010 6:19 pm

The only ingredient missing is actual particle based rain outside, one of the remaining holy grails.

Well Reneer made that thing that stopped rain while you are under something, so you could use that and actually turn rain on in interiors, but the big problem is it only owrked with vanilla weather and not with any other weather mods, and because you need AN for this (and are daft to not use it anyway) you can't use it. If he or someone else made an AN version that would be perfect.

» Sun Dec 12, 2010 6:16 pm

Reneer's mod is great for the outdoors. You couldn't use it in an interior though because the rain would fall through the roof of the building. Unless that's been improved since I last checked.

What I was getting at is more along the lines of hanging a particle generator outside each window that would create the illusion of falling rain and could be set to fire up only when needed. We already have script mechanisms available to enable/disable whole swaths of lights in the RL module. Adapting that to weather particle generators would be simple. It's getting the generators themselves that's hard

Reneer's mod is great for the outdoors. You couldn't use it in an interior though because the rain would fall through the roof of the building. Unless that's been improved since I last checked.

While it hasn't been improved per se, the mod would allow for rainy weather inside interiors - it would automatically switch to a weather type that was like the Rain / Thunderstorm weather except that it would not have a rain emitter NIF attached to it. Unfortunately I haven't had much time to devote to making the mod worthwhile as of yet.
