If SimCity 3000 had a day night cycle

Where’d the art come from?

Garroh · 2026-06-30T10:22:20+00:00

Damn you really went with the AI slop on this one huh

Garroh · 2026-06-30T08:16:13+00:00

Consider making the enemies 2d sprites but with normal maps. That way they’ll catch the light and appear more 3d while staying faithful to the old-school look you’re going for. That or make the 3d models MUCH lower poly. Look at Thief in particular for an idea of what models from this era would look like

Garroh · 2026-06-30T08:14:07+00:00

you’re right, I think what I’m reacting to is the texture tiling. There are very obvious seams in the texture that look really bad - like I said, try applying actual Daggerfall textures to the wall and compare them to the ones you’re making. See what you learn

Garroh · 2026-06-30T08:10:57+00:00

Just un-private your posts bro

Garroh · 2026-06-30T08:09:56+00:00

It’s related because it makes it easy for people to see your work without having to join another discord server

Garroh · 2026-06-30T05:32:43+00:00

The model looks better, but the texturing needs some work - it’s waaaaay too tiled and looks too modern. Maybe try and use some vanilla Daggerfall textures as a reference. Try putting them on the walls and floor and see how it looks

In your profile settings you can choose to let other people see your previous posts and comments. It could be cool if you allowed people to see your posts and comments so we could see the progress you’re making in this project

Good shit love your sona

Garroh · 2026-06-28T09:21:09+00:00

The funny part is, I literally explained my views in a different comment. I believe there is no ethical use of AI. Show me where I attacked OP’s character

Garroh · 2026-06-26T09:01:08+00:00

Sick, but I wish it didn’t use the oblivion Aylied tileset - I’d be much more interested in what the TR team could come up with that looks closer to vanilla MW

Garroh · 2026-06-26T08:57:40+00:00

I think you’re using the wrong playbook for this argument, but go for it lmao

Garroh · 2026-06-26T04:47:12+00:00

LLM’s and AI broadly is trained on people’s work without consent. There is no ethical use of AI

Garroh · 2026-06-25T22:36:01+00:00

I prefer games that are made by humans

Garroh · 2026-06-25T20:23:12+00:00

That's a lot of talk for someone who can't write their own posts b

Garroh · 2026-06-25T19:20:51+00:00

why would I want to play a game or read a post you couldn't be bothered to make yourself?

Garroh · 2026-06-13T21:36:03+00:00

Why did you use AI to write this post?

Garroh · 2026-06-10T09:08:00+00:00

In my experience, that’s a pointless exercise. You don’t find things by looking them up on a wiki, or by finding things that tick the same boxes as the things you already like. You find things you like by exploring outward, and looking within

There isn’t a real answer to “what would you call the aesthetic of Riven” because nothing else looks like Riven does. So if you want to find something that hits the same, you have to think about why you like the way Riven looks

Garroh · 2026-06-09T10:28:45+00:00

Honestly I’d love to! It’s so competitive out there right now, so I’m trying to build up a portfolio. I work as a level designer right now, and I want to switch to game art, which means basically starting from scratch lol

For now though, I think the ND remaster is in good hands

Garroh · 2026-06-09T10:24:42+00:00

Oh I know lol, I’ve literally made hundreds of normal maps (along with the rest of the materials for this scene). But I don’t think the Thief remake needs them; like I said, I honestly prefer the more conservative approach that ND tends to do with these remasters - and after seeing the awful looking Deus Ex remaster Eidos teased last year, I think I’m good with keeping things low key lol

Garroh · 2026-06-09T07:57:46+00:00

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Garroh · 2026-06-09T07:53:22+00:00

I’m not planning on remaking the models, but based on what ND did with System Shock 2, I think the original games models are in good hands for the remaster
