Project Reality Forums

So i had this old church oon my HDD wich i made a year ago in SketchUp and didnt know what to do with it but then i saw this thread and decided to find it and make it PR'd
Here are the screens:








i only reworked the tower roof and made the holes in tower wich should be finished till monday

comments advices... are welcomed

Starting to look solid. Its going to need more detail later on tho

You should check how hard is it to port SketchUp-files to format which can be used in PR. Maybe Dev's can answer this one tho

i have it pro so i only need to export in OBJ.
@ cyber yes i know about the detail it will come soon.
thnx

EDIT i could use some refs for texture

lol I like the title of the thread

looking good, I wonder if it can be converted to bf2 though. Anyway it's good to see some intercultural stuff here

well its easely converted AFAIK so it shouldnt be a problem.
any advices what to do about details?

stones, brown bricks preferably, we build everything out of it as the sight of baked clay in rectangular shapes makes us happy.

I suggest you let yourself be inspired by real churches and cathedrals. try googling for instance "de nieuwe kerk" (the new church) Amsterdam, or "dom van utrecht" (... of Utrecht, really no clue how to translate it) or "sint jan, den bosch/s' hertogenbosch" (st. John). perhaps a fellow countryman has some better suggestions for smaller and more modest churches as these are among the most famous and perhaps largest churches, doms(?), cathedrals of the Netherlands.

It can be converted, but it may not be optimal, and errors may crop up in the transfer. I'm not sure how the import/export works out but it's probably the case that the only thing that will be retained is the model, without Uvmapping/texturing.

hmmm, I didn't know you could make sketchup objects and use em in pr....interesting! I could have some fun making U.S. statics now

EDIT
EDGES: 1560
FACES: 691

Looks ok for the most part, make an inside with benches, add more detail on the windows, make the tower climbable, so you can snipe from it. Can't tell anything more.

benches and stuff will come in the editor and ladders too so you can come on tower. will detail the windows somehow not sure how yet

I think that the count of tris and polys is needed more than the count of edges and faces. Just thinking.

PS. Keep working, gets better all the time

im not sure where i find tris and polys in sketchup
