I streamed most of the process on the woods map and I will probably do the same on the next thing. The in-game map also contains a lot of useful information such as tree density, markers for rocks, electrical lines etc. If I know what item that they based the in-game model off of I can google the measurements. Since EFT is based in reality all of the in-game objects will have real life measurements. At that point I know that the scale is accurate so I can lock the map in.Īfter that I build on that, using the in-game map as a reference in the background throughout the whole process. I then pull the in-game topographical 2D map into the scene (which is way too small by default) and enlarge it until the man can fit through a doorway on the map. The human model has the avg height of a man and is proportionally accurate. I pull a generic human model into the scene. Getting the scale right in the very beginning is the most important thing.

Here.Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore and realistic online first-person action RPG/Simulator with MMO features and a story-driven walkthrough currently in development by Battlestate Games. I posted a bunch of videos of my process on my Youtube page too. For this project I used 5636 screenshots as reference. It would help a lot with placement of vehicles and various debris. I WISH there was a way to see the map from a birdseye perspective. I seperate the map into parts and work from building to building / compound to compound. That way I dont have to remake that object & because it's using the same mesh data Blender will end up using less memory which makes life a bit easier when you have a scene with thousands of objects. I save all objects that I know will be repeated into an asset library. Apply that logic to everything and most stuff will look accurate. I dont know exactly what height certain items are but 99% of all 3d modelers go off of real life scale so you could guess that the BSG modelers use the average height of a door for all of their doors etc. I make rough blockouts of the areas I am going to make and try to get the height as accurate as I can based off of other nearby items and the human model. At that point I know that the map has about the correct scale & lock that in. I use the in-game map as the main reference for the building footprint/shape so first I place a human model with the avg height of an IRL male in the scene and resize the map object until the human model looks like it can fit through a door for example.

Regarding content flairsĭude how do you make these? Are you modeling 3d mock ups and carefully hand placing them based on other maps or using some tool in the game to view from birds eye perspective as reference? Your workflow interests me lmao
