Super Mario Sunshine Level Imports - Games

Thanks for trying at least, I'll see what I can do with that. Also, I got the bottles into the map as ammo and (hopefully) fixed the spawns acting weird. Here are some things I have to do before i can release a beta: -fix the crates not taking damage from most weapons(only shotguns and explosives can break them). -fix the pool water not extinguishing burning players. -change spawns around to reduce the ability to spawn camp (possibly a blue boat as mentioned earlier?). -fix the tree leaves sounding like wood when walked on. -color the tops of the big water tank and flag pole gold. -make a cheap version of the ocean water texture because it causes major glitches on dx8.

bump- cant let this thread die

Holy shit, I honestly didn't think it would get this far considering the amount of brushwork having to be converted and new models and textures... Great work! Keep it up. I would love to see this completed and delfino plaza would be awesome.

[QUOTE=Karmah;36842721]I would love to see this completed and delfino plaza would be awesome.[/QUOTE] Delfino plaza might be a bit too much work though I reckon, although I too would enjoy it.

Oh wow, this is some amazing work. Sunshine has a lot of potential for TF2, too, for every gamemode I can think of, official or not. I can't wait to play this map, Sunshine is one of my favorite games and probably the best Mario game I remember. Hotel Delfino could make a good koth_ map. The outside at least. The casino also has potential, especially for Monoculus :v:

Here's the Blu skin for the boat: [T]http://i.imgur.com/VqeIW.png[/T] I'm still a little unsure about some of the colors though.

seems a bit bright

I would make it a bit darker.

Looks better but its just me.

Waaay better.

Oh my goodness gracious this is awesome.

Shit's gonna be good when this gets finished.

[QUOTE=Crazyhalo;36870879]I just read as part of a recent Tf2 update they updatd something involving dx8 water, does this tie into your problem regarding that?[/QUOTE] Nope. Here is what happens on dx8: [img]http://i.imgur.com/1wM34.jpg[/img] The water is the only real problem that arises though, aside from the boat textures looking a little muddy.

If I knew anything whatsoever about mapping, I would go to wherever your house is and help you.

i wish you good luck

What's your process for converting the levels? Are you importing the terrain from the levels into hammer and converting all the buildings and props into models and manually placing them in the map? Maybe if you post how you do this you might be able to have other people do other maps along side yours, maybe sharing resources such as the converted textures, ect.

I've more or less fixed the refraction problems in dx8 but now the skybox water turns black.:suicide: [T]http://i.imgur.com/rPyzk.jpg[/T] [QUOTE=Karmah;36913513]What's your process for converting the levels?

[quote]-Extract the packed map from the rom using Dolphin. (ex. airport0.szs) -Run the .szs file though yay0dec and run the resulting file though rarcdump. You can get yay0dec and rarcdump here: [url]http://www.amnoid.de/gc/[/url] -Find the file called "map.bmd" in the folder output by rarcdump and export it to a .3ds file (with textures) using bmdview2 ([url]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/54317910/BMDVIeW2.rar[/url]). -Import it into blender and remove useless objects (shadows, overlays, other small things) then break it up into separate objects which will be used as reference or in the map later. -Import a character from a source game and a character from the game you're porting from and scale the map and game character to get the scale right. -Strip the map to it's absolute bare basics (terrain, major structures, etc.) and export the striped version into a .smd file and compile it to use as reference in hammer and repeat for each structure in the map. -Build brush/displacement work around the reference models. -Export models that cant/shouldn't be made with brushes to be used in the map. [/quote] I'll be releasing the vmf and content once the map is more or less finished because some of the models/textures still need to be tweaked a bit.

It's been years since I've done any model work, but it seems to be an annual thing for me to use my summer time working on a map of some sort. Tomorrow I may attempt some of the first steps and analyze if it would be feasible to do a map or so. I would love to try delfino plaza. Assuming I can do that, I would probably just port the coins and use them as minor health kits, put trigger_push jump pads on the bouncy roofs and maybe some "rocket nozzle" jump pads as well. As far as making the map less taxing, I would probably just block off areas with invisible walls and make the areas outside of that be visible on the exterior surface and no collision. If at all possible, it would be great if we could share resources, such as converted textures for the water, however if it came to it, I could just manually extract and convert it, but if multiple maps were to be released, it would be more apealing for them to be consistent in scale and texture.

Here's a beta version of the map: [URL]http://filesmelt.com/dl/tf_delfino_airstrip_b3.bsp[/URL] The bug in my previous post isn't fixed yet but everything else should work fine.

Also here's a pic just to give people an idea of how many models are used in this map. [T]http://i.imgur.com/w3Agg.jpg[/T]

Needs all the attention-bump

Bump When will the content be released?

Re-bump, he has a link up, it's in its third beta I guess?

Sorry for the long delay. Here's the content: [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/airstrip_content.rar[/url] Includes all the models, textures, and sounds used in the map. I'd credit the creators of the skybox and water textures but I can't seem find their names anywhere.

Hey sorry to be a bother crazy halo but, What happened to the church of curlytology? I can't find it no matter how hard I try. Do you know the ip?
