Loading Screens
« on: June 20, 2011, 09:37:54 pm »

Already posted here: http://forum.newfmc.pl/index.php?topic=247.0

I made some loading screends in original Fallout resolution (640x480 px). Feel free to use it on your mods or even in 2238 in future if you like it. Just remember wherever you'll use it, give me a little credits.







All stock photos are belongs to me.

Doesn't match current loading screen style.  All of the current loading screens are of an animated style, so this real-world picture stuff doesn't work for me.

pretty good though.

Yup, that's why I see it more in modifications than in general FOnline clients. Actually I've tried to do it in more ... animated style, but it looks better in photo-style. But thanks for the opinion anyways! :)

You took these yourself, or did you just modify a photograph that you found? Either way it looks good, but if you really did, how where did get military caliber bullets? Looks like .50 bullets.

And what is the fourth photo? The 13 is obvious, but what is it actually showing? A bag or something?

I really like those, but I prefer artworks for loading screen.

Dishonest Abe: I took this pics myself and of course modified too.
This projectiles are original 7.92mm bullets used in MG42 machinegun. It's just empty bullets. I mean without gunpowder of course. One my friend is collecting bullets, helmets etc. from world war two and cold war. He borrowed me some to make a photo for this one.

Oh and "13" is the flask from V13.

Those pic are really nice especially the bullets caught my eye. The flask is nice also. Where was the first one done?

Think that's a flask holder.  The flask in FO2 was an actual metal style one.  Still amazing pics and well done, you could even modify the 13 one to be a chunk of an old vaultsuit laying in the wastes.

Really nice Headshot, I've done some Loadingscreens in the past aswell and know that it's not easy to match them with the current style. Suggestions: the font for "Loading" you used is the correct one, but try to apply some small drop shadow (try it with 1-2 pixel offset and a small diffusion) - also the text is usually all in caps ("LOADING..."). If you want, you could also try to experiment with some filters to make it look more like the drawn original screens, could apply the fallout colour palette, or could even try to make some animated elements inside them (for example I did that here or here).

(btw - are you hobby photographer? These pictures look very good, maybe you want to post some of your works here too? :) )

Simply fantastic work. I took photography as a course in college but rarely managed such quality photographs as these (e were using SLRs)

Did you make the Vault flask yourself?

Last image is best imo, but still it doesn't fit to loading screen (Because of style)

Maybe this style is a bit similar to originals. ;)
