New wallpaper: BZArt#28!

Saturos · Post by **Saturos** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 12:39 am

Here is number 28 of my BZFlag-wallpapers... in comparison with 27 it is crap - but nevertheless I think it is a quite cool picture which is worth releasing it. My main-concern was to experiment with Blender's particle-system (grass, shot)... the result is this image.
I hope you like it.

Can I get BZArt #27 and #28 in 1440x900?

I'm getting attached to #27... *in trance*

you can, just get blender, it took me about 2 hours of fiddling around in it and now I can make pretty cool stuff,you should try too

I like how you used the particle system for the grass - neat way of doing it, the grass looks very realistic!
The particles from the shot should have a more noticeable fade, though - and a bit of random color would make it awesome!

Could you show the .blend file? I really want to see how to make that grass!

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Jan 07, 2006 1:30 am

yes I would also like the .blend file

That will be a but difficult because 1440x900 has not the same width-height-relation. But I will look into it if I can get a good snap.

Here is the blend-file...

Yeah uh, go 404! I love the font Forbidden is written in! I don't know how you guys see a diference in number 27 though: It looks exactally the same to me! It might look cooler if you unattalisized "Apache/1.3.27 Server at bzflag.saturos.de Port 80" and made it small instead.

Yep, forbidden. My site got hacked by "mehmet", so nothing was not forbidden. Should work now.
