OK, so here are some (mostly) Max preview renders of some of the models I have transferred. I want you to be reasonably hyper critical, if you know what I mean.

Certainly anything that's more fantasy than medieval must be exterminated.

Also I want any thoughts on improving the textures, and anything else. These are the models mostly as is. Where there were no textures (like in the case of the tavern), there are still none. I don't have enough of a feel yet to be able to automatically know what should be made out of what. Also any thoughts on their use as game objects would be good too.

3. caravan (banished)

4. chapel (I LOVE this one)

5. gerzi house 1

6. HWUR1

7. outhouse

8. market stall

9. tribok

10. windmill

12. Tavern

(this one is mostly lacking textures, what would you recommend, esp. the walls?)

Simarillion · Craftsman

Generally very nice models.
3: doesn't convince me too much, neither in textures nor in construction
4: very good
5: very good, apart from the multiple chimney and maybe the windowpanes. Maybe using simple shutters instead..
6: from this distance fairly nice
7: nice biggrin

8: good, maybe a slight change in texture for the pots
9: looks good, not sure about storical accuracy
10: very nice, just add the sails (even rolled up)
11: don't think it's got anything to do with the period (might even 19th) (removed smile

)
12: nice model, again unsure about the multiple chimney. roof texture or thatched or shindles. wall texture dirty white (as a test). foundation maybe slightly larger rocks.

thanks for that. What is modifiable varies from model to model. I will keep posting these as I process them,as well as the updated ones. I look forward to seeing the tavern finished off.

BTW you did notice that the door seems to be missing?

thingfishs · Lord

well it's there at the top of the stairs, it's just not textured.

That's why I said seems wink

Here is a link to a collection of models, a handful of which may be suitable. Could you take a look and see if anything is?

With different degrees of reworking the following could be usefull:
Clermont, Darmstadt, Fire, Gutenbach, Hotel, Liechtenstein, Muslim, Piggery, San Jeronimo, Stuttgar, Tranfiguration. As for the Houses, almost any single floor longhouse could be adapted.
The Town Houses are lovely, unfortunately a bit too late.

great, thanks for that. Couchpotato sent me that link, asking to let me know which ones I want... I haven't even been looking at proper collections like that one, but she suggested it so who am I to question.

The good thing with "proper" models like these, is that they are more or less fully modifiable. I will send her your recommendations.

thingfishs · Lord

unfortunately the exchange didn't go as well as hoped, she only had two, but they are both spectacular.

Gutenbach Stutgar Berg

The hunt now is on for some of the others. I am going to have a go at rendering the Gutenbach one first, more soon.
