MoonBase Mod by Sol666 + Ra Mod by Stromek

[RPG-BLOG.bot]

I have been waiting a little longer than originally planned for the presentation of the first mods that were submitted for the <a href="http://trackmaniarpg.blogspot.com/2010/03/introducing-rpg-community-mod-contest.html">RPG community mod contest</a> and unfortunately, due to seemingly very little interest in this contest, the following two mods from Sol666 and Stromek will be the last ones I'm going to present. Thanks a lot you two for putting the effort into participating in this contest!

There are 149 modified textures, the following are taken from Lunar Cross:
StadiumDirt1.dds
StadiumDirt2.dds
StadiumDirtRoad.dds
StadiumDirtRoadBorder.dds
StadiumGrass1.dds
StadiumGrass2.dds

Furthermore, I modified StadiumRoadGrid.dds from the original Nadeo textures to create my StadiumRoad and StadiumFabric textures.


Author's description:
<blockquote>As I am a science-fiction fan, I like to build sci-fi themed mods. In this case, I updated one of my old mods (Lunar Cross) which originally contained only dirt textures.
This mod is meant to simulate a moon base, so I used a lot of (rusty) metal textures, basically with the colors grey and yellow. I changed the light settings to very bright light and a dark sky, as the moon has no atmosphere. In night and sunset mood, there is a decent mip map effect on the StadiumFabricL: light is white in the distance, yellow when you get closer. I'd recommend sunset or night mood to make use of the changed lightmaps.
As I also wanted to use this mod for dirt tracks, which are usually very open, it is designed for closed rooms as well as for open scenery. There should be a lot of possibilities to use it in sci-fi based RPG maps, especially the outside atmosphere is very authentic I think. </blockquote>
