Thank you for that excellent reply.The reasons why a thread gets few responses could be either of these or a mix of these:
a) People aren't online - probably at work or somewhere else.
b) You have already been given the answer so no more was needed.
c) People may not know the exact answer to the question.
To answer your question about how long it would take me:
To build the street - if I do it the easy way, probably a minute... (that is, without any cracks or special effects or textures).
To create the buildings - assuming they are just cubes with the wireframe just as seen in the video, I could make them in maybe a day though for the more complex ones (the one in the front) I'd say a week if I'm lazy enough. Fully textured? I'd say 3 weeks if I'd need to research other stuff to make them look that realistic.
The carrier? With all those details... I'd say maybe 2 weeks (non-textured) to a month (textured) and rendering it would probably have me sleeping next to the computer if it would take longer than my solar system scene. X_X
I am sorry to hear about your health problem.Thank you for that excellent reply.
That's what I was looking for. I have no frame of reference because a) I don't have a fast computer and b) I have virtually no real training or solid working knowledge of how that is all put together.
I doubt I'd ever be able to create a carrier ... ever, so its very impressive to me that anyone can do that to begin with, especially with respect to the time frame.
Thanks again.
Not real type. That's just non-textured, I've even written that it's without anything on it (no cracks, no realistic shape), just for something to be between buildings for the sake of it.I feel your pain and please do not take what I said the wrong way. To make that on your own...have a look at R.O.S.A I believe that took 12 months or more solid by one person. No offense...but if you have a terminal illness (depending on severity) then maybe you should just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others labour watch a film or 3...paint...fish....do something f*****g crazy.
Silver...are we talking real type streets? Unless you have a library of assets this will take more than a minute? surely? You have kerb profiles, pavemant etc etc Im curious now.
Cheers bullet
Now I feel like I really want to try and make a realistic street (just one road and an attempt at making some realistic buildings since I have made a whole city of glass before in 3ds max and a normal city). I haven't worked with bumpmaps from the day I've made that 3D earth model.Oh sorry mate...Im a Surveyor and I though you meant roads etc...sorry mate. I do believe wizard, there is a program (prob not free) called city scape or something? pretty good by the looks of it, seems to be a Speedtree for cities?
