1. To start with I created a tunnel that I could useas a copy for most of my
project. I did this by creating a cuboid in modeller and I then hollowed it out
as well as cutting a hole into someof the sides. I did this according to my
design pack and I then got some of the different pieces and started to put
them together. To startwith I put each piece onto a separate layer so that it
was easy to co-ordinate.
2. I then decided to do a few moreof them. However in a lot of the larger
corridors I filled up some of the holes that weregoing to lead to nowhere
and I opened up somemore holes that I were also going to use. After that I
created a larger roomwhich was going to be my main place in the
environment. I created this by simply making a box and scaling it to the size
that I wanted.
3. After that I needed to link up the larger roomwith the corridors and this
proved to be a more difficult task that expected. FirstI had to decide the
width of the corridors and put them into place. Then I deleted the wall that
was whereit was going to link up and I selected certain points on the sides
of the walls. I then created a polygon where it was going to be and I
repeated until it was completely sealed in.
4. Then I had to create the assets that were going into my main room. This was
easy to do except for the chair. Becauseof the certain style of chair I
wanted, it was difficult at firstto figure out how it could be done. However I
finally realised that I could create a sphereand then cut some of it out to
create the effect that I wanted. The table and computer wereslightly easy
to do as they werejustsimple objects made out of cuboids and I then had to
texture them before importing them in. I got them in a line by going onto
each side view and lining them up. I then copied and pasted each row in
until the room was full.
5. Then I looked at my design pack and saw that apart fromthe other side it
was complete. I could have justmade the samething for the other side,
however I saw that it was a complete mirror and because of this I decided to
justcopy the corridors and pastethem to the other side. I had some trouble
copying the wall to the main area so I decided to justdo that manually. I
then needed to texture my walls. This was simple as I justwanted them to
be a simple colour which was a dark grey.
