Platinum Arts Sandbox - Free 3D Game Maker Forum

Just wanted to show my map for a future adventure game. I started making it to show the kids how to properly implement what we taught them, and how to make a storyline without having to do quests or attacking (we couldn't teach them either)

You wake up in one of the beds (they bounce! ^^) and your sister explains that tereasa needs some help. If you're nosy you'll discover the book talks about a legend regarding people who live in the mountain and control the creatures.

You'll find tereasa in the garden, where the explains she's being overrun with rats. You guide the rats right into a lava pit (gotta explain that one better sometime...haha) When you go back to check on the garden, there is a small shiny objecy with an inscription - you must journey into the mountain to help the mountain people (Crax) and restore order to the creatures.

There are caves with bears and other false-alarms, and then you discover the main path. Unfortunatly the path is guarded and you cannot pass. Luckily, there is a gathering of "Crax fans" who say that "That guard is so spacey you could walk up right behind her" You get the idea and find old stairs covered in thorns behind her. You climb up and whaaalaaa you are up on the mountain!

This is as far as I've gotten, but more is already planned



The house you wake up in:




The attic:




Outside of the house:




A pond:


The mountain as viewed from the house roof:

Wow. That map looks incredible.

This looks awesome!! (except the geometry errors in the last screen ). When do we get to play this? I want to run around in it Also if there were any particular cool/neat/warm moments with the kids, I would love to hear about it in the warm fuzzy section. That area needs some love! I should post some myself. Take care!

HEY!!! This shows true talent! Its awesome!! But you should make a download link for it. This is a nice map it gave some good ideas for my new map.

Thanks

Wow, thanks, everyone! Yeah the geometry errors on the mountain really make me mad. I can't decide if I should start over in some areas or try to repair...I takes SO LONG to repair the errors, yet redoing part of the mountain might mess other things up - so I dunno.

Yeah I'd love to make a download link when it's a little closer to being finished...I think I might submit it as custom content if you guys like it so much.

I appreciate the support, now I want to finish haha

Depending on the size, you might just be able to stick it in an archive file and then upload it onto the forums.

This is amazing, great work!

To fix geometry errors I either use heightmap mode with a big grid size and modify it or use the third mouse button to fix the angles. I believe shift 7 will show you what gridsize it was when first made so you can use that gridsize to fix it. Take care.

Nice job! I'd give this an 875/1000 . Keep up the great work.

Any updates on this? I can't wait to see more!! Take care.
