September 2012 Custom Content Challenge: Arabian Nights

[Legacy_Shemsu-Heru]

               @Rolo Kipp: Welcome back!



Now a simple ancient oil lamp; maybe magic, maybe not. like a 2d medium miscellaneous item:





I fell very happy with this challenge because there are very nice things for it, and many builders, even new, have decided to contribute. Many thanks to all of you.

               I know I said I was working on something genie related, but I got sidetracked and the switch from gmax to 3dsmax, and some improper modeling on my part too, it kind of got ruined. So no dynamic genies sadly! At least not from me... Oh well!

               @dusty.lane: why you don't try a no dynamic genie, maybe that could be easily. In my opinion the main role of genes is like a creature; characters, usually aren't genies. Because of that genies don't need to be a dynamic race.

keep up you always can add content to finished challenges, when ever you want, don't worry too much for the date limit.

How about something simpler, like expanding on the Djinni Tail that is on the vault.
One more Djinni tail would be a great addition.

               The docks are finished and I also added a few tiles to make raised city terrain possible.
I didn't place any doors or placeables in this test area. Just imagine there being wares in the
shop and a bazaar on the raised city terrain between the dock and the buildings, peddlars sitting on carpets selling pottery, etc.




The raised city terrain was made from tiles from the TNO tileset and the dhow is the one Asymmetric allowed me to add to my tileset. The crane is from the Bioware city tileset, but I made some changes to it to make it look better.

               Wow! A whole lot of really impressive projects this month!
As for my little contribution:

Ankus has been reworked a bit...



And the bagh nakh...



In two versions because I couldn't decide which one would be best. Version 1 has straight blades and can be wielded in either hand. Version 2 has curved blades but is two separate weapons - one main-hand only and the other off-hand only. Both include the optional bichawa blade as middle/bottom model 2.

               Agreed, great work phenix-rising '>

               Rolo I can always take screenies myself and send them to you, it's just I can only put them somewhere and provide a link for people to follow rather than them being displayed here. If people would rather I post a link in here I'll happily oblige.

Hey! I can write a tutorial about posting images here :-)
Caveat: a) I'm mostly messing with you Big TR and I really am much better reading tutes than writing them :-P

Step one: Open an album or project under the "my content" roll-out to the left. <nope. step one, take a screenie>
Right, so step two... er, three. Blast it bird! Stop that. Close beak.
Step two: Upload image to album or project gallery. Best to edit it to no more than 540px wide and can not be larger than 250kb.
Step three <four>: Grrrrr. Go to image and right-click on it to "Copy image URL".
Step 4: <5> write post and where you want the image to display use square brackets (without the spaces I'm putting in)

But don't stress about it. I know you fellas over in the old country have to tap out your internet on coconuts or something <that's monty python>
Yep. Learned everything I know about Britain from that great documentary series <*face-wings*>

<...a tutorial>

               Rolo I tried but it says to click the upload button... I can't see any upload button.

In the mean time here is a link to a mini gallery with the screenies, in my dropbox account.
