ok guys, i know what i am doing! lol (in terms of cover-up project)!! he thinks i am making a physical fallout project. SO! I AM. i bought an ammo box, some old photos, omg i have to take a pic to show you lol. so, ammo box, photos, an old coke bottle, a lot of bottle caps, canned water! etc. The water says its impervious to NUCLEAR FALLOUT YEEHAW lol. and with the bottle and caps, i am going to NUKA them. not sure what else is going to the box, but i know D.Foxy's poem will be in there annnd the photos, they are "courtship" "marriage" and "old age". I also picked out one that reminded me of the building that Andy made!! so cool got some kinda silver spike that reminded me of the weird things you find in the game. might make it into something. oh, and i got a bottle opener that says "Its Lucky to be in America" or something lol. I am going to tell him that this is his anniversary present and give it to him while we are at comic con, orrr...before we leave? i don't know. let me know what you think! i found all of these things today, shopped around. i found an old ammo box for $30 and went next door and found one for $15.

Here`s a video walkthrough of the entire area to enjoy, cluttered, optimized, navmeshed, ect, just took out the NPC`s for the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BU4l9W6Ms6Y

Just a few more things to do then its off to Attentater5 for the Dialogue and quest. Then back to me for a few final additions. Were probably about 2/3rds to 3/4 done now!

Is Attentater5 back from his trip yet?

Skykappa

I am on my phone so I can't properly reply but all I can do right now is scream and smile!!!!!!!!! Omg omg omg omg!!!! Lol. This is absolutely amazing and I cannot believe what you guys have Done! I Am trying to contain myself bc my bf is right across the table from me and he was singing the Plymouth rock song earlier. Lol he heard it just now and I said I was watching music lol. But I've never held my phone so close to my face and trying not to blink. OMg omg omg. .

Thank you guys again and again!! I am going to watch this a hundred times when I get home lol! Yesyesyes!!

Well, just got back from a wonderful holiday scuba diving on the great barrier reef, driving around Australia and jet-skiing around the coast, soaking up the beautiful scenery (and the beautiful locals )

Soooo... I'm ready to do my part whenever you guys are prepared to send it to me

well, sir, it sounds like you had an awesome time! i've never done anything that you spoke of. (except driving and scenery lol.) glad you had fun. was there an occasion? today is the 4th of july, for us, but for ME...i was at the work, Dog-sitting. lol. didn't get to see fireworks today, but yesterday we fired some up! and i made octodogs lol (google it hahah)

man. i want to see a REEF. lol.

If you ain't out mountain biking, it's this [shakes his head like a father would]
:D
I'm proud of you, son. Good to see you're taking those bites outta life.
:goodjob:
Q. Which area you live in? I'ld put my money on Brisbane or Cairns (to everyone outside of Oz, the "R" in Cairns is silent), maybe as south as Sydney, but I'm doubting it..


He's an Ozzie sweetheart, he doesn't need an occasion, just an excuse
We had an anual rock concert here on the island, it just happened to be on the fourth this year, so everyone was coming up to me and congradulating me on "the colonies" seeing as I'm the closest that they have to a resident Yankee around here...
off to see Ice Age 3D with my son, who has been hounding me for the last thre days about how well he's listening, doing what he's told and deserves to see the movie. Demanding even...
Later,
:D




Acolyte doesn't get to go to the movie house. People says Acolyte smells too much... and he drools.

You're pretty damn sharp, Andy. Brisbane is right, and I did indeed stay in Cairns during the trip.



We don't even need an excuse, mate

haha, that\'s so awesome (and thoughtful )!! i love the canned water; \"IMPERVIOUS TO NUCLEAR FALLOUT\" FTW . and you just happened upon an old .50 cal ammo box?? i want one too
if you want check out http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=981993&hl=. maybe you can make one of those while you are at it.


cheers
falcon

EDIT:
ps
i am going to my cousin\'s wedding in 2 weeks, so i think that is a good omen.

and nice work on the project so far guys. :goodjob:

EDIT2: fixt link

Link is broke for me Falcon.

that IS a very cool bottle reminds me of the Alien Egg I made one time, I lit it from the bottom, also. just, no liquid lol. http://www.instructables.com/id/Alien_Egg_for_Face_Hugger/

the guy who made the nuka cola/quantum, should put it on instructables.com damn. i should have posted that to him lol.

Hi guys, update:
Skykappa has it buttoned up for Attentater but ran into a navmesh problem and send it back to me.
Honestly, I'm kinda stumped.. It involves the landscape navmesh where the building goes.. somethings not right and it's telling us to fix the warnings before checking it in
whatever the geck means by that :shrug: it means in any case that the building isn't loading correctly, maybe even the entire mod... I loaded it up and trekked over to it, and it ain't there...
If I don't figure it out by this evening, I'm sending it on to Attentater and hope he can figure it out.
Maybe a fresh look might help..

Other than that it looks sweet.
Skykappa did a great job of turning my luxury interior space into a really sick environment, the bloodsplatters go really well with the chandeliers :goodjob:


Andy

Odd... the exterior worked fine for me. I`m sure you know all the usual, wait for the cell to update or start a fresh game, if you have visited that cell before and it has a saved state in your game file. Also,dont run any other mods that affect that cell? Im sure you know all that, but it`s all I can think of.

Skykappa

http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/728/aqabottle.jpg to put in the mod, maybe
the texture/UV still need work, but you get the idea.

falcon

Yeah, I was good. I'ld never been out there yet with my character, so I trekked it and nada.. :shrug:

Anyway, the issues with the navmesh seem to baffle me -there are supposedly a bunch of these triangles in the cell you mentioned that are n't connected and whatever (the bunch of warnings that you get when loading...) did the Columbo thing, jotted down all the warning info, looked at the specifically named triangles and for the life I haven't a clue what's wrong with them or what would need doing...
also, just laying down navmesh on the catwalks and balconies around the building exterior has become a lot more difficult due to all the surrounding landscape navmesh -> keeps getting in the bloody way....
:D
Hi, and how is everyone tonight? :banghead: Fine.. Nice to see you... So glad you could drop in.. :ahhh:
Lovely weather we're having, wouldn't you think?? :gun:
I'll be over in the corner.. :huh:

having a nervous breakdown.. :wacko:

trying to scraqe the scorpions off my skin..


Acolyte's a little worried.. where are th' scorpions?

A few more image updates to post.

If you say so.

I believe I was promised Candy?

That`s Kaiser Zuhalder, he`s the Leader of the Slavers Union, Like the name? It`s German for Lord Pimp, apt for a slaver boss, and very cool sounding, took me a while to think of it. lol. He has the key to Puffys Cell. Pay him, sweet talk him or kill him for it. Probably kill him... since he`s looking to kill someone today. lol

Skykappa

Edit: @ Andy, Well.. poo.. thanks for looking though. I knew it was something with the navmesh, But I had no idea either. Anyone know how to use FO3edit/ to to copy only the navmesh of a particular cell, then we can start that exterior navmesh from scratch?

Nice pic's :goodjob:


This is what one of the warnings looks like at the beginning when loading:

Pathfinding: Navmesh 0200af15 Cell 'EvergreenMillsEast' (00001113) (-17,-7) in Worldspace 'Wasteland' (0000003C) and Navmesh 0007d3e9 Cell 'Wilderness' (000010FC) (-17,-6) in Worldspace 'Wasteland' (0000003C) have at least one edge in common but are not connected. Are the navmeshes finalized?

So I went looking for this recalcitrant triangle and it looked ok to me :shrug:
Trying to save it says:

Navmesh (0200AF13) with 376 triangles in cell 'w' (00001127) (-16,-8) in Worldspace 'Wasteland' (0000003C) has warnings.
Please fix before checking it in.

At least it says please. As for checking it in, I thought it was carry on luggage :huh:
As in, not a clue what they mean with it.


I still can't find the freaking thing..

Oh, http://s633.photobucket.com/albums/uu56/old_andy/?action=view¤t=Whatbuilding.jpg it is

But if I can run around the exterior without any problems, then the warnings don't matter, right?




Acolyte know where that is.. That's right.., right.., uhh.., right there.

solve all problems pleez!!!


Kaiser is da pimp skykappa... well done!

Looks great! You did a really great job Andy. I think I picked a nice spot for it too. You can see from Tenpenny all the way to DC from there.



I was hoping that too. But, it needs to be professional and error free. I`m not sure what the problem will bring, but it cant be a `good` error. If it comes to it, I`ll delete the Wasteland World cell and start again. It didn`t take that long anyway, I just deleted some rocks, copy and paste, add a few markers, hit generate objects in the World LOD tab, modify the navmesh. All done.

Unless anyone reading knows which of the lines in FO3edit corresponds to the Wasteland Navmesh only so I can jsut start the navmesh again from vanilla.

Skykappa

Edit: Cheers Foxy!

wow, nice job on the can of water thats so cool

LOL @ candy inside! hahahah. and thats a good idea to write on his calender, wow LOL. great stuff! and HIM lol! wow, such a good name, ! omg. a red-headed slave pimp hahah. (great name!) on top of that, shawn loves german music and knows a little german. i took 5 years in school, and also love his german music. you guys are amazing!

i am so sorry about this problem that you guys are encountering wowow. super-svcky.

its so funny, hearing from andy and skykappa...I am like Andy and think "if it works, we're good!" lol, and my bf, like Skykappa, say "No, it has to be done right."

I am so thankful for anything and everything that you guys do, no matter how it comes out. even if he can only walk in straight lines, like retarded hop-scotch. this project has grown so much, that i can do nothing more than stand back with the ability to peer into what you guys are doing and think of it as... something huge. i don't even know what to call it. i guess that is exactly where i stand, also. i cannot fathom it!

i swear, once this happens, we are probably supposed to be joyous and cuddly but i am going to be like.. WHOA WHOA WHOA, i have to edit this into a cute video and show the guys, HOLD on the mush until i return. lol. *un-pause*

Ah, Puffy.
Curb not your enthusiasam or young love's folly
Hold not your kisses - they're part of the story
Of ALL of us. We, who are born and grow old
and sometimes...have hearts that grow cold
in winter of age, bring fire back to hearts this way
- in the reflection of love's zeal in others that stays
in our bones. Our flesh. Our soul that echoes yours
and through that transcendence, takes wings and soars
above the mundane, the pain, and the ache that claws
in many a soul from thirteen to decreipt -
But love's phoenix is that which bears hope's receipt.

Very nice.
