Super Mario 64 Castle Bleck

[animalforest]

Hey guys... I've been retexturing Peache's castle into Castle Bleck!:naughty:

Here is my progress so far.

God that's hideous. Sorry, but the black and white layout just looks so bad for mario 64.

Also, Bleck's castle looked different than that. The Black is more predominant since the white lines are thinner. Similarly, there aren't that many lines, and those are mostly vertical with a couple of diagonal bends in it.

those tippi butterlifes look cool though.

[animalforest]

Yeah, this is my first project, and I didn't think it was the best either. I've still got alot of work to do, and one of the first will be to redo those ugly looking white lines.

[Datadayne]

Well it kinda does look like count blecks place. But I dont see my self ever downloading this.

[animalforest]

Alright, I redid the castle so the white is more subdued. Please tell me what you think!

the roof has tilling issues. Move to the inside of the castle.

[animalforest]

Alright, thanks for the advice! I'll come back to the roof another time.

[Elite Knight]

Also you stole datadynes tress thats not how you get attention for texture packs on buddie make your own.

those are datadaynes, he made them along with the trees

[animalforest]

Actually, those aren't his trees OR his butterflies. I'm new to this, but I would never steal somebody's work! I respect Datadayne and Super Paper Mario 64, whch is pretty cool.

Actually, those aren't his trees OR his butterflies.

Have you got proof to back up this claim? On first glance, they do seem to be based on Datadyne's designs from his pack. But I can, of course, be mistaken. :)

They aren't Datadyne's designs either. Remember that both designs came strait out of Super Paper Mario.

So wether he took them or not, the results would look the same either way unless one of them screwed up.

[mudlord]

hmmmmmm.....true..

[animalforest]

Okay, here is the proof:=]

Now, I'm going to start work on the inside of the castle. I'll come back to the outside later.

ripping textures directly out of games then posting them is "redistribution of textures" and is illegal.
So they would have to make designs that look like it; but still they would look SIMILIAR not the SAME.


Okay, here is the proof:=]

yours just looks like you desaturated; but I don't care, it looks a little different then datadayne's.
Sorry for "persecating" you.
My apologies dude xD

[animalforest]

Good point. The tree of mine is very similar, but not the same. Tippi is not from the game, but actually from a home made sprite that I clipped in half.

[UnaidedCoder]

Yes, which is what design referrs to. Saying he used their design means he is using a visual style similar to the material in question. How he got them has no influence over that comment.

Besides i don't think it's possible to rip textures from super paper mario yet, and even if it was, cropping the trees out of a screenshot would be much easier (and legal by technicality since it's not a rip).

That's okay, I know that at first glance, they look the same. Now, lets move on! :party:

well said!! if you need help with anything, pm me.

[jessman(reborn)]

Well, regardless, I think it's great that you're trying to contribute to the scene. Projects like these are always welcome. Thanks for doing something cool.

[animalforest]

Alright, I finally finished the outside of the castle!:king: Here are some screenshots:

370013700237003
3700437005

However, I do have 1 problem. As you can see, there is still some green by the waterfall and around the castle. For some reason, that texture won't dump for me. Any suggestions?

[Driscol]

looking MUCH better, but how would i know, cos WHAT THE HELL IS CASTLE BLECK!!!???

[Datadayne]

looking MUCH better, but how would i know, cos WHAT THE HELL IS CASTLE BLECK!!!??? He is one of the bosses in super paper mario. And good job on the castle dude. Looks pretty similar.

[Driscol]

cool, a boss castle

[animalforest]

Thanks for the feedback! And I think I figured out my problem, so I might release the outside of the castle as a pack soon.

[Driscol]

ooh, might actualy use this one, i mean datadayne's is cool but a boss castle, wow!

[Datadayne]

This just gave me a very good idea. Since my pack is based on super paper mario, and animalforest's is based on a boss in super paper mario, maybe animalforest can help me turn bowsers last stage into count bleck style.

Im not ready to do that stage yet, but when I am, if you want, I would like you to help me.
