█████▓▒░ UNCLE MUGEN'S FREE VN (OELVN) RESOURCES ░▒▓█████

[mugenjohncel]

Hey Mugen... Why don't you show off your real skills and show us a background of a floating city? Like this: http://www.superbwallpapers.com/fantasy ... ity-16301/

Because, well, I like being evil. *watches eagerly*

Sure but uh... That will cost you

Because, well, rendering something like that will take a while. Also I'm too lazy for something that detailed . *waiting warmly*

Also, there is this RSP project with LVUER that is slightly higher priority so I'd stick to simple BG's for the Uncle Mugen's Free Resources for the meantime...

And lastly but most importantly... The real purpose of the Uncle Mugen FREE resources thread is to have a place to dump the byproducts of my never ending quest to find ways to produce BG's cheaply and effortlessly with huge emphasis on effortless because I personally believe decent passable looking backgrounds for OELVN use doesn't need too much effort or be limited to talented individuals and with the proper tools and basic know how, even a layman can create his own BG's... this is what I UNCLE MUGEN aims for. To streamline the process enough to render an easy to follow tutorial.

Sure, Uncle Mugen does take request but like an evil (but handsome) genie whose lamp you have rubbed gently... and repeatedly... your wish would sometimes not come out the way you expected it simply because the evil (but handsome) genie thinks it's more fun this way

Pay? Hah! Like you need any more money, Mugen! I was just wondering what Sketchup's capabilities were.

[SakuraTommiko]

so, uh... Uncle, mayroon po ba kayong bg ng isang bedroom?
you know, something neat, and something a bit big fit for someone very rich? xD
haha!!! So I'm also a Filipino, and I got interested with this thread and got addicted to reading this from start up to the last.
And finally! I could add a reply after reading for almost 30 mins...

wahahahaha!!!
Salamat po!
Thank you!
Arigatou Gozaimasu!

I'm REALLY looking forward to how Mr. Mugen fulfills those last requests... Especially since I can't think of a quick way to make them on Sketchup.

Easy actually... just use the sandbox and paste a large texture of cliff in the side and fill it with trees...



The Korean house and BG's on the other hand...

It's great! Thank you so much *bow*

Uncle Mugen can I have a 20th century street like this please? http://www.mybrightonandhove.org.uk/ima ... 0wide1.jpg I won't mind mugen ads all over the place - I just really need to find a coloured 20th century background! Thanks!

... really lol'd on that one XD
Thanks for sharing your BGs btw!
I'll also be looking forward to your future projects/BGs as well.

Hey, Uncle! I really hate to be a bother, but I'd like to request two BGs ): . I need a hospital BG for a VN I'm making... I know you did a hospital BG already, but for this BG, I need it to look more like... the PGH. Like, dark lighting, gurneys/stretchers in the hallways. I also need a BG that's a small room used as a clinic. Very small and decrepit... Thanks in advance, Uncle, if you find the time to make them.

Uncle Mugen, your backgrounds are simply fantastic. I hope to be able to use these fantastic arts to their full potential.
Thanks for such fantastic backgrounds, I will probably use them :3

[lemonscent]

omg these backgrounds are amazing! +_+;
I'll definitely be using some of 'em, thanks!

[Kokoro Hane]

I-I was wondering, if you could please make a night version of the school hallway? That would be really, really awesome~

[ZeroExistence009]

Wow, these backgrounds are so awesome!!

I will definitely use these great background.

It is for free use right? Provided that I will credit you for those backgrounds?

I'm just new to developing VN and I'm amazed at these crazy BG's.

Just curious, do you have a BG of a typical living room with TV??

And a mall? Or a grocery store?

I think it will be awesome if you have some BG's of that to spare.

I will surely subscribe to this.

Uncle Mugen, we have a game project for our thesis and we decided to make a vn. I would really like to use your backgrounds but I think we are restricted to only using our own works and assets. Can you give us some tips on how to quickly make quality backgrounds like yours? We are using Maya and Photoshop.

P.S. And if it's ok with you, I would really appreciate it if you could give us tips/guidelines/suggestions in making a modern filipino-themed vn.

[Hasuko]

Hi UncleMugen. I'm grabbing some of your backgrounds as placeholders in my project until I can get my own art. Thank you very much!

[mugenjohncel]

It's been a while... I've been really busy and focused on my current flagship projects that I kinda neglected this thread...

No problemo... the pleasure is mine

Well... if you could wait for a bit... I'm currently working on this...
http://studiomugenjohncel.wordpress.com ... vn-aka-vn/



It is a recyclable school so you will not only have just a hallway but the entire school including time of day variations... it is almost near completion... regular updates that are too small for a blogpost can be found here...

Oh and if you feel like doing so... they are also OK to edit and modify

Uncle Mugen, your backgrounds are simply fantastic.

And cheap to make too...

Unfortunately, most requests will have to wait for a bit... it's been awhile since I finally got fired up and create a totally new OELVN (aka EVN) project that isn't a remake or a parody so I'm currently devoting all my spare energy to it since I am so close to having a working framework that can be released to the general public... do not worry... once I find sufficient free time I'll go through them one request at a time...

P.S. And if it's ok with you, I would really appreciate it if you could give us tips/guidelines/suggestions in making a modern filipino-themed vn.

OK... first things first... what makes a modern BG uniquely Filipino?... Quite frankly, not much... if you look at most modern buildings in the Philippines... assuming the setting is urban or sub urban, they're not much different from other places I've visited like Vietnam, Thailand and Shanghai... all have the same high rises, all have the mid sized commercial/residential buildings... they also share the typical urban clutter like above ground electrical wiring and traffic signals so the obvious thing to do is to focus on what's the most recognizable thing locally... In this case... the typical Tapsilogan might be the most obviously recognizable common thing that one can truly call uniquely Filipino... Yes... in Vietnam and Thailand they too have something similar to Tapsilog but they don't call them Tapsilog.



See this image?... It's just another modern looking building that you can found in most modern urban / sub-urban areas but you can definitely tell this one is Filipino by the presence of the Tapsilog Signboards...

My technique is pretty simple it can be viewed in a youtube tutorial here... (please watch in fullscreen)

Although I'm using Sketchup, I think the same output I produced in Sketchup can be achieved with Maya and use the same post processing to achieve the results I got... although this technique and software is quite old (Photoshop 7)

Thanks! And also, if you have the time, may I contact you for opinions? Since you are already experienced in making VNs, can i ask for suggestions in adding scenes for our story? We already have a story(high school slice of life) and I really wanted to put Filipino traditions and culture(to increase appeal to the panel/judges) but my groupmates are much influenced by japanese VNs. They only wanted to put traditional events in Japan like cultural festivals and such. Even the school uniforms have long sleeves. Your opinions would be a great help to us. Thanks again!
