Everquest UT2004 maps

So I've started this year playing and looking back on good old classic fast paced shooters. Mostly playing UT2004 and also deciding to play some classic Everquest Project 1999 and I thought it would be a bit of fun to take the dungeons from Everquest and make them play or work as a classic arena shooter map.

So I've started with the dungeon known as Crushbone, which is one of the most famous newbie dungeons from the game.






I've kept a lot of the classic old school modelling in tact and fleshed out the rocks and wall areas with some ut2004 cliff meshes.

Age of Empires 3 mod

I spent of couple of days learning how to mod age of empires 3 and modelled some siege units. I decided to recreate Age of Empires 1 and have converted and created the units for the majority of the units using existing graphics.




There were no suitable existing graphics for the Siege units, priests and chariots.  So I decided to have a go at creating the siege units and have so far modelled and unwrapped the three siege units shown below. I decided I would use the original Roman word for classic as the title forth mod, which turned out to be classicus. Since Rome is one of the most well known empires of the ancient world and the main setting for the expansion "The rise of Rome" :)


As well as the 3D models and units, I've also began creating the first civilization but have ran into a few issues with the civilization I create being playable. Hopefully once I've resolved these  I can move onto creating the technologies and import the siege units for a playable release.
