- hopefully, much of the island can be procedurally generated from existing
data sources - including roads, fences, plants, and some buildings - however,
there are numerous objects will need unique 3d models - hand-modeled or acquired:
- unique buildings, including hotels, the observatories,
airport buildings, and archaeological sites
- road vehicles and road signs
- boats and airplanes
- animals
- prioritized list of a few items to start with:
- feral pig, with animated movement, to be placed in forested areas
- United 747 or similar aircraft, to land and take off from Kona and Hilo
- 747 models are on the Vehicles
page, need to apply a "United" texture map
- a "tarmac staircase" for getting out of the plane
- a quick web search did not turn up one of these
- the Hele-On commuter bus, easy to move along it's daily Hilo-Kona route
- 3dcafe: no bus. assigned to an artist in 1998, a low LOD was
created.
- recreated in Blender in 2006
- at least one popular rental car, e.g. a Mustang convertible
- one offroad vehicle
- most of the Mauna Kea observatory structures
- description on buildings page
- status: built preliminary models (rough, 400-1000 polygons each),
will need better models in the future
- at least 1 hotel on the S.Kohala coast
- a sports-fishing boat
- a fish for the sports-fishermen to catch - e.g. Marlin, Ulua
- a cow, with brown/white or black/white texture map
- usable in a static 'head down' pose
- eventually simple cow motions are desirable
- possibly could use Animania! from
Credo for cow motion
- tour helicopter
- there are 3 types mentioned by the tour operators:
- American Eurocopter ASTAR 350, has 3d models available, two LODs:
- (VP4288) AS-350 Ecureui/Astar/Fennec, 474 polys
- (VP5595) AS-350 Ecureui/Astar/Fennec, 5169 polys
- Sikorsky S76
- TWINSTAR, twin jet engines
- any other unique buildings on the island
