Title: Some pic of my city
Post by: Underrecover on February 02, 2015, 02:44:32 pm
I decide to make something interesting. So I try make something like this. I couldn't think anything by myself, so i decide to just try copy something from real world. I hope i will make more villages around or even all country, if it would ever be possible. As much for now it just beginning of what i am trying to achieve. By the way, country name is Latvia. I cant make it 100% perfect as it would be in real, because first i cant get same house models as in real life, and second it would take more time to make everything more detailed. Most interesting is that if you use Oculus Rift it seems pritty good. I will update more if i will get things bigger. By the way house models are not mine.

From my experience, an accurate road and building placement is enought to make you fell that the scenery is based on a real world location, even if you have never been there. You don't need to go too much in the detail to make it feel real :)

Good luck!

Nah, it's the arrowhead (http://forum.outerra.com/index.php?topic=2992.msg31794#msg31794) rock :)

Yes it really is Kolkasrags, i am so surprised you guess that with out any problems, one thing is that there is no snow, mostly just clean sands and that's all, of course only on winter.

Cape Kolka, where the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Riga, a very popular place for swimming meet, although there are waves. There is a curious lighthouse built on an artificial island within 5 kilometers of the coast, and in winter they say you can walk when the sea freezes.
There is a small hotel, restaurant, shops and a cash,,,, but I see girls anywhere ... 8)

Some of the rocks randomly spawn, so i suppose they are not where they suppose to be. Even rivers and lakes are in different places or don't even exist, so i hope for the best the new updates will make chance to make rivers, hills, trees and much more. It would make things much more realistic as in real life.
