Please dont, thats an insult for all of us Brazilians

Its really lame talking about that part of Brazil, is like talking about 9/11 ( It happened but we dont like to talk about it)

I don't have problems talking about favelas, it's part of our reality down here and pretending they don't exist won't make them disappear...

Anyway, we're talking about amazon forest maps here so there will be small villas and towns, totally different from big cities favelas.

WRT texture palettes, I suggest we create at least one with some specific typical and very common brazilian textures, like rooftops:

asbestos: http://www.brasilit.com.br/produtos/telha_ondulada.php
backed clay / ceramic: http://www.telhaodeitu.com.br/produtos_telhas_barro.php
plastic: http://www.fortlev.ind.br/produtos/mate ... cd_site=13
zync: http://www.andres.ind.br/prod_5.htm

These would be reused a lot in most houses and buildings.

I found here some textures for rooftops, not sure if they're of good quality though:

How is slums in any form like 9/11?

anyway i thought it was the polices job to deal with the favela's?

hey folks this thread have nothing to do with favelas, we are on amazon forest, at least 1500 Miles away from Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.

I believe he tried to say that "Brazilians like to talk about favelas as much as Americans like to talk about 9/11"

back @ topic: The statics look good though dont they look a bit "urban" for the Amazon forest?

believe it or not there are some sort of civilization on the Amazon, we're trying to represent a village, or small city or whatever you like to call it.

the Map called Marechal Thaumaturgo, will be a mix of forest, city, village, so we need some "urban" statcis too.

Dont forget inside amazonia there a few "highways"

I see... I was under the wrong impression about the Amazon then

Many people, including some brazilians, think Amazon is a big chunk of the map populated only by trees and such.

if you need a beta-tester for the prod emm for the building just tell me.

I found some interresting textures, but needed of alittle work on it.

just a little update

not bad, not bad at all

yay new statics

you see these types of homes in the american mid west and south west.

what you mean? For me it is more enough detailed for generic houses, I'll make something more unique on the Churches and commercials ones.

I'm working on Corrugated Zinc and Ondulated fiber-cement textures, to give some variations, and a more characteristic visual.

Like I said its really generic, it may seem pointless wasting time on these buildings, but ME and China are far from any (south)western buildings.

Most of walls, roofs, crack/dirt textures are useless, since China and ME buildings are hundreds even thousands years old and have complete different architecture.

He means it looks good

first tryout of some sort of Ondulated Fiber Cement Plates

Fiber Cement Plates? Asbestos?



I wouldn't go over board on making too many custom textures thou making this one is acceptable if you need it, but your texture needs a lot of work since right now doesn't look much lie asbestos

Its going to be quite hard to make asbestos well without modelling it but should be able to get a good compromise with some decent normal maps and decent textures.

I think the best way to make this might be having to make a high poly model, baking the normals, textures and possibly AO maps too off of it and combining them into a texture.

I might see what I can do for you if I get some time which is unlikely tbh, got a shit load of jobs at the moment, would need you to confirm how much you plan to use this texture as well.

There is some textures here thou which you might be able to use, type Asbestos into the search: [CG Textures] - The worlds largest free texture site

These statics are going to be useful because they'd pass off for African too, and god ARF sorely needs these IMO.

Eh, good luck with those!!

are you gonna build some houses that you can enter too?
