WIP Beta released Dublin 0.31

Hello, and fáilte.



What you see is what you get: a LiDAR-based recreation of a small part of the city of Dublin, Ireland. This project is a serious time sink, so don't expect perfect polish. It does have AI paths and night lighting, though. The area portrayed is a good chunk of the real-world district of Temple Bar.

Spoiler: Credits

Thanks to @Ewanc for his lidar import tutorial, NYU for the perhaps the highest-resolution full-city lidar data available, and Allegorithmic for their wonderful texture authoring programs.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, people.

 

nice!!!!!!

 

neat

 

do you live in dublin?

 

"Time to break out the Guinness!"

No, seriously, can't wait! I finally get to drive on the left!

 

it is normal i hear some horn in background ?

 

No, I've barely ever been outside the US. Just some of the most high-fidelity lidar data available and Google Earth to make it look right. Ish. Anyway, I figured it was high time to see a well-done map set in the [former] UK, so this was as good a place as any to begin.

I've got one here Almost gone, though.

But yeah, this is a Miramar map through and through. It's RHD, small enough to fit into tight spaces, and nimble enough to throw around the tight corners.

Yup, same ambient noises as WCU. I had to reuse a few extant BNG assets, like the trees, curb material, and SFX.

 

interesting

 

Nice!

oh and also, I tried to look at the link in your bio, but it doesnt work anymoer, do you have an updated version?

 

nice to see
will inspect
and i will help you with this map, giving small minor detail ideas, and information about the city.

 

Looks very good!

 

Ah, crap. I should've read those emails I was getting from my web host. Nah, I don't think I'll bother getting any new portfolio stuff up anytime soon. Most of the more recent projects I've been working on are on this site anyway.

 

You did pretty good for google earth. I've been to this place and its very accurate.

 

@RetroKing, can you read the description instead of posing a crappy rating? There's a reason the description says it is unfinished.

 

It is as I told in my rating!

 

And Why you rate 1 star @Car_Killer mod

 

Although I believe his review was too harsh, I also believe that the reviews are there to report problems and shortcomings, and that the reviews section should not become an echo chamber for praise (as has happened in a few cases in the past). Thank you for your support, but there's no need to call RetroKing out.

You have a point in regards to the version numbering. Truth is, when I released this project (hell, when I started this project), I wasn't sure if I was going to stick with it. When I put "Beta" and "0.5" down, I guess that was me thinking that I wasn't going to add too much more. But it seems popular; there's a market for it. So I'll continue it, and when I get a patch out within the next week or so, I'll revert the version numbering and list as WIP (if I can).

 

of course - continue! The Dublin Setting is promising!
