Pellape Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) Coffe MachineI slowly started to form the Dwemer Coffee machine that I will place in the kitchen and the pitcher is almost finished. I need to work a lot with the UV at the handle, but half is done and it sure takes long time to hand make a bloody UV. I want all parts to have 8 sides as they have in Morrowind really. ;) I do not know yet how the glass will look in game as I was forced to do it double sided, in case the player looks down in the pitcher and I have bad experiances from that when I last tried to make glass 15 years ago, so I might need to delete the inside... I will also make a machine and a funnel. Coffee IngredientsI plan to make 4 ingredients and I basically want to use them for poisons so the coffee bean will be suitable to use in alchemy with 3 different blends of coffee... I am not sure of all 4 types of effects at the 4 ingredients but this is what I know right now:Coffee Bean - Shock - Fire - Cold - Damage HealthMorrowind Light Roasted Coffee - Shock - Damage Health - x - xHammerfell Brand - Fire - Damage Health - x - xSkyrim Blue Java - Cold - Damage Health - x - xI might use some Drains as x maybe. The coffee it self will be flagged as food. Edited December 29, 2020 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) It does not look to bad in game, with the right light settings but I need the work some on the glossiness as flat glass is never fun to deal with... I will also try to find out how to make the coffee to actually look black Edited December 30, 2020 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 I do understand why those that made glass items, use so many curves, as flat glass looks terrible when it reflects light. I will try to add a glass with 48 sides, but slightly curvrd, so it still looks like 8 and it will be curved in z as well, like 8 bowls put together. I did lower the reflection in the normal texture file but instead of white reflection, I only got a dim grey one. It do not look normal or realistic. I also colored the glass orange.

DrakeTheDragon Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Hmm, I wonder what it would look like just with smoothed normals (no hard/sharp edges). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pellape Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) I have done both Drake, Smoothing everything, which made the other parts looking better as well and I made the glass curved but I wanted it flat, made a better normal texture as well and recolored the blue glass texture to orange/brownish, added real coffee texture, that I also will use inside the coffee cups later on... But I guess this will do really. I guess it is time to fix the UV at the handle now :D Edited December 30, 2020 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) It doesn't go fast. A funnel is added filled with coffee beans and the machine is slowly growing upwards. After I extruded a level, I need to move a lot of vertices manually... Maybe it is finished tomorrow, well max 2 more days though? I also need to fill the tank in the machine with water and add pipes in it and I most likely use mr_siika's pipes as they are maybe but pipes are fast and simple to make. :smile:The UV at the handle looks good now as well by the way and I think I will use that texture that is on the handle for the bottom plate. Why am I adding that spot where the machine is reddish on the right side? Well it is there the machine will be placed and I think I add 1-2 light sources there as well, to make it have the right colors... The coffee plant...will most likely be that same as Blackberry and the coffee bean as well I guess. I do wanted a plant from Morrowind, damn I forgot the name - It is all over the Vivec area and give ingredients that restore mana... A bush that are all over southern Morrowind... I logged in and checked -> The Comberry Bush Edited December 31, 2020 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) I think the Coffee Machine is finished now. the toå of the machine, became much smaller then I had expected, but I had to follow the curve that I made in small stages and it got very narrow at the top. There is a pipe inside the main water barrel and it is visible from some angles and not from others as that always happen when we put transparent stuff inside transparent stuff, so s*** happens... :wink:Suitable light? Well I added a Dwemer Lamp of course above the machine... :D Tomorrow I will make suitable traditional 8-sided Dwemer Coffe Cups on plates :wink: I might also add the pitcher as a Blunt Weapon, as I did in Elynda's Washroom for Morrowind, added a rusty Clothes Iron as a mace or maybe I did make all as maces? I don't remember but I can check as I do have it installed :D Edited December 31, 2020 by Pellape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellape Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 I am 100% satisfied with the pitcher and the funnel and the pipes. I am 53.4% satidfied with the machine. It looks as weird as this smith does really. I must try to do something about it. I will make a new version now and we see where it ends up as... All I can do is to follow the form upwards, but I start to delete a bit of the top glass barrel and make a new top. I will also add some rust at the bottom...

Pellape Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 This looks much better really. I deleted 2 top sections at the glass barrel, moved it up and added and reformed the lowered sections and also made new UV to them and made a complete new top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
