Recreating old IJ screenshots in TresEd

Post by machf »

While going through the concept art galleries, I decided to give another go at what I did several years ago...

Let's start with this image:

Image

We use the toolshed and trees as references and locate the proper coordinates:

Next, we hide the Albertosaurus:

And now we move the crane:

These are the settings for the three parts of the crane:

Voilá!

Now we look at this image:

After enlarging it to 640x480 and changing the camera orientation in TresEd to match it, we arrive here:

And likewise for this image:

We get:

Looking at that last picture, it appears that the boulder was moved a bit...

Placing it in its original location would allow to correctly locate this picture:

With the boulder in its current location, this was the closest I could come up with:

Also, using the previous picture with the Stegosaurus as a reference, I need to place that power pylon in its place... once that is done, I can correctly locate the other Stegosaurus picture:

And also this one with the T-Rex:

Incidentally, I created a new one by combining both of the ones we had:

And then there are these two ones which are probably from the same level too:
