Does anyone have links to modder's resources with Japanese, Chinese, and Korean style buildings? If you have a mod using these kind of models and want to allow permission for me to use them in my Akavir Land of Dragons mod it would be immensely appreciated as well as help the mod finish faster. I've sank 8 years into my Akavir mod and feel like the only thing holding me back from really finishing it out is enough proper architecture models. Any help is appreciated.

Can anyone give me a description on how to use Annwyn to combine quads?

Well I got it into the game, and it retained all the details I wanted it to, only thing is that it's not 1:1 scale. So I separated the heightmap into 16 quads and that made it pretty close to 1:1 scale, but only the center 4 quads load. As I said in another post, BSTamriel is well over 4 quads, so it's possible to get this into the game, but I'm having to get help on the process from the guy who did the Tamriel map. It's going to be great having this in the game. Thanks for posting this thread TV, it's helped me out a bunch. I think you should take a look at the site I linked for DEMs. The one I used was a lot more detailed. Thanks again, and if you know anyway to get 16 quads working in game, I'd appreciate it.

I already said the DEM you suggested is the pic from post #41. That grayscale is just to show how much more detailed that DEM is compared to the one you linked. I guess I worded it weird. It can still be grayscaled, it's just the definition gets a little blurry. And is there a way to remove the hillshade effect? I saw that the Mojave Wasteland is 31, 31 as well, but that still shouldn't matter. I've made a mod that extends out past the map and it works. Check this guy Morcroft out: http://www.darkcreations.org/forums/topic/806-common-worldspace-heightmap/ That's well over the 31, 31 norm, so I know it can be done piece by piece. Here's the grayscale from that same DEM: See how it has the Stadium's footprint(That's what I'm calling it), roads, and the land bridge I mentioned?

Here's the tLandscape heightmap from my mod and a pic of the view from a hill behind my old house. The heightmap's extent is 31, 31. Is that the same as Capital wasteland or Mojave? The third pic is a real scale version of the phase two type one house model(minus textures).

I understand it will take a lot. On another forum, a guy did the whole continent of Tamriel for Skyrim. It's detached from the province of Skyrim, but it's still a huge worldspace. I think it's larger than my selected area. I would settle for a smaller part of what I showed you, and use this chunk instead, since it's what I really need for the mod: If you know how to get at least that section in as close to real scale as possible, I'd gladly accept the aid. Here's a google maps shot with street names if you want to look at the actual area: And here it is in the DEM I got from that Link I posted: You can see the roads, foundations, and the land bridge between Farb and the Youth Center(I used to live there). A problem I keep having with the DEM is that the hills are shaded and when you grayscale it doesn't work right. Also the scale, like you said. I separated the pic from my previous post into 16 quads and it's about right, the hills are too smooth and short though, and no land bridge or small elevation changes like the newer DEM. Thanks for your quick response. This is a personal thing for me. I made a WIP mod of part of the area I want to make for FO3 and it made me want to have the real world height map. Here's a link, the picture isn't what all was done, and the mod is in the tLandscape part of the game(probably wasn't a good idea): http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/12168 Now I've been trying to get this into FONV. I'm also modeling the old versions of the houses and buildings in the area. I really really want to get this mod made. Your help is greatly appreciated.

http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/194119-will-somebody-help-me-make-a-map/ I'm still trying to get this section of San Diego into game, but I can't get it in the right scale, or with the right amount of detail like my DEM has. Here's a link to the DEM I'm using: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/dem/squareCellGrid/download/3542 I need this one because it has the roads and foundations for houses. It also has all the minor land elevations I need for the military housing area I mainly need. I'd like to get all of this pic into the game at it's real scale: If anyone can help me get this into FONV I'd appreciate it.

Hey I like what you came up with and I think you might like this site: http://www.darkcreations.org/forums/forum/119-beyond-skyrim/ I'm trying to put together a group to work on the Valenwood province if you're interested.

Still can't get the grayscale settings to work right. Everything comes out spiky and distorted. I could really use some guidance.

Ok. I can view it in Geck, but in the render window, it's all distorted. I'm using photoshop cs5. VTB. Microdem. Why is the render all distorted?

Hey I'm trying to get San Diego county in a heightmap, but can't it into GECK using the tutorial. Can you help me out? I'm using Microdem and Photoshop. I can get it into a raw file that's 16 bit grayscale and 1024x1024.

Thanks LordFrostCraig. That's what I was talking about. I use Valenwood Improved, Skyrim Improved, and Elsweyr Deserts of Anequina mods and they all have a few locations beyond the normal map. I would love to get mods for Black Marsh/Argonia, Summerset Isles, Hammerfell, and High Rock too. You know, the kind that allow you to walk to those provinces from Cyrodil. If anyone knows of any for those provinces let me know please!

Well those mods aren't really what I'm going for. Would the Oblivion.ini file contain the map size? The guy who did the map that shows southern Elsweyr must have altered something to allow the map to go further south than it normally goes. But I also want to see northern Skyrim and southern Valenwood too.

I meant the in-game map, not the landscape itself. You know, when you hit tab and check the map, but it won't go far enough in all directions(N, S, E, W) to see the fast travel icons in Northern Skyrim, Southern Valenwood, and Southern Elsweyr. Know what I mean?

I was wondering how to make the boundaries around the in game map larger so I can fast travel to skyrim, valenwood, and elsweyr locations that are beyond the edge of the map. Also, I have tried combining several maps(all made by others) for a map of Tamriel that is in the style of the Oblivion Cyrodil map. Please let me know if you know the solution.

Okay, my questions are: 1. How do I get music into a certain interior? Like the strip joint in megaton. It has music playing inside it and I was making a rave club in megaton and wanted to know how to get the mp3s to play inside the club. Is there a limit to how many songs I can have? Can the loops of songs change? This answer will also help me with my Tierrasanta mod. 2. What programs do I use to make new buildings and how do I get them into geck? I need to make some houses for the Tierrasanta mod and I don't know what 3d modeling program(free) to use to make the house's outer shape. I also need to make the interior walls and stairs too. 3. How do I use a picture as a texture for a wall, carpet, grass, stucco, roof shingles, etc.? I have a bunch of old photos of the houses I'm trying to make and would like to use them to make the textures or bitmaps(not really sure what the right word is for what I'm thinking) for the walls and stuff. 4. How do I import a height map into geck? I have a height map of the part of San Diego that I want to us for the mod but can't figure out how to get it into geck. I've been trying to use the landscape editing tool in the geck but it's taking forever. I have tried surfing through the forum and the geck page but nothing really explains what I need to do in order to do this. Also, how do I make new clothes? I need to make some simple uniforms but don't know how to do it either. Any help would be appreciated. The mod(Tierrasanta) is a mod of my hometown and the general area around it. I want to make the five schools in the area, the shopping centers, the houses, and the parks and recreational areas for the mod.

I was wondering how to use real images to make walls, doors, windows, roofs, carpets, paintings, posters, grass, cement, sidewalks, roads, and anything else like that. My mod is of a certain suburbs in real life and showing it before and after it was remodeled. I prefer before. So how do I use photos of the area to do textures and skins for walls, etc.? I don't mind if it's just 3d boxes with skins at this point in time as long as it's my photos. Any one who knows how to do this simply and effectively and who can lay it out for me in detail would be appreciated.

Hey an idea came to me for Futurama related mods. The alien blaster looks like some of the guns in the show and I've always wanted a bender companion. In fact, the mod could just be bender and I'd be happy. Leela might be hard to pull off as an attractive NPC cause of her eye. Someone has already done Amy Wong. Zoidberg would be great too. You could take sound clips from the show like bender saying "bite my shiny metal ass!" or Zoidberg's noises. You could also have the professor there to give quests from the show so you could use his voice(always thought Dr. Lesko was Billy West's voice). So here's a list of what I would want in the mod: - Locations like Planet Express, Bar, the sewers that the mutants live in, interior of the ship, and maybe some others. - NPCs of Fry, Leela, Bender, Professor, Amy, Hermes, Zoidberg, Scruffy, Calculon(must have!), Wornstrum, Nibbler, Zap, Kif, Roberto(crazy robot with knife also must have), and maybe Morbo. - Weaopons like the lightsaber batons, ray guns, broken beer bottle(for bender or hell just for fallout), Roberto's knife, um can't think of anymore rite now. - Outfits for the player character of all the Futurama NPC's outfits, and some of the robots so your player character can look like them too. If anyone out there has the ability to do this I'd be grateful. Let's get this going.

Here's a better on showing the beach and downtown areas.

Oh yeah here's the height map.

I'm sure slof and the others would gladly help out.

Hey I really want some models done for a fallout 3 mod I'm working on. I need 3d models done for about 12 different variations of military housing that all have really basic design and colors. I can get you some photos I have and some textures I was trying to make. I'd really appreciate the help.
