Rain Barrel

Description
Just a small barrel full of precipitation - prop-like.

Hey folks, this is more or less some notice that I won't be very active for the next month or so. I have some thing(s) planned that I think some of you will like - but I'm going to try to put a real polish on them. It's also summer - and I need to enjoy a bit more time outdoors. We don't get a lot of warm weather where I'm at.

(Even if that means me wandering around town taking pictures of the sides of buildings for texture files :D)

Asset stats
Main model: 206 tris
Lod: 70 tris

Textures: 256 and 32.
All maps needed are there. No active colour map for this, however. It's a barrel. Making it red would be dangerous.

I might put up a house here and there, just because I do like doing that ... but this - this is a fine barrel. Please enjoy it.

So, again, thanks for the comments and encouragement.

@220hertz I know. I know. :P

It would be nice if dynamic props or textures were actually a thing. Just imagine how amazing clarifiers and pools would look. I was saying it more in jest than anything. Your barrel is really well made.

@landandskygirl - The barrel comes packed with a modest amount of rain. I hope it's enough. :)

Honestly, there's not a heck of a lot we can do to create dynamic objects – like, for instance, a localized spot of rain, animated or otherwise. The game really isn't set up for that sort of thing.

Maybe someday we'll get a utility to import custom animations. And then the gloves are off. But, until then ...

Aside from limited 2D animations on planar objects in props, (which for the time being require Ronyx's animUV params mod) – or objects continuously rotating around a single axis (also usually needing a mod), it's hard to make anything move the way you want it.

Nice! Would you consider making a rain prop? You know, for the barrel :3
