That asshole sonofabitch. He's using my mural and claiming it's his. I actually sent it to him during the brief time when we considered merging Trespassing with his mod. Here is the original:

I didn't see any claims there about 2000 pixels, or an original image provided. Anyway - you can tell he is using mine, from a few specific errors in my copy, including areas of blur, areas of over-brightness, and most of all the red splotches along the big log - they resulted from my color-shifting the right half of the image to be more green, and then BACK to being more yellow after I determined it was in fact accurate.. resulting in some of the deeper colors in the log becoming red.

Anyway, I don't much give a shit at the moment, he's not worth my time. It's not like anyone is going to make money off of this.

Look around the raptor, the plantlife you added back into your mural is completely missing in his, due to his texture artist painting in the areas where the chairs are.

And he told me the details of his mural in an mp3 when he thought I accused him of stealing his mural:

If you think he stole it, then take it up with him at ModDb.

I won't be convinced until I'm presented with a copy of his version (at any resolution) that I can compare directly to. Anyway like I said, he's not worth my time, I'm a busy guy with better things to worry about.

I saw the mural on the model on June 21, 2007 when salvoraptor linked to Jurassic Park: Source in the thread about Jurassic Life in the Other JP Games section:
http://trescom.3dactionplanet.gamespy.c ... =45&t=5355

The failed deal to merge Trespassing with JP: Source took place on July 26, 2007. That's a full months difference, and I remember seeing the render at least a month prior to the post on the forums on June 21.

He had his mural before you made yours so how could he have stolen yours before you had ever even made it :P

EDIT: With a Visual Communications Degree to back me up, I spent 5 minutes glancing over the two and marked the differences that I could find.

Image

If he stole yours, he butchered parts of it, removed key elements, broke and blurred areas that were just fine, and fixed other areas. I doubt he would do all of that.

Well, that is a pretty good comparison (setting your mind to it, I bet you could have done just as well a year ago, knowing your eye ;)). However it is that he got the same red blotches, I can't imagine, but the most notable differences are on the bottom right of the image.. he's missing entire sections. Anyway, thanks for taking the time.. I'd rather just not hear anything about him.. ever.. Jesus, when did I get the ability to hold grudges? It will probably pass..

Ok, back to Trespasser modding :P

I'm sure some of you remember this unreleased Jurassic Park Series 2 Jungle Theme Jungle Explorer:

http://www.jurassictoys.net/database/ma ... temId=1449

Well, in my mod the explorers are in two separate teams of 4 (Exp 00-03, Exp 04-07). What if the first team of Explorers had a different paint scheme?:

Image
Here is Explorer 01.

Explorer 01 and Explorer 05 sitting in the open

Took a little artistic liberty on the tailgate since it's not shown and even if it was, based on the Series 1 Jungle Explorer, it wouldn't be very detailed anyway.

An overview of the two giving a good comparison of the hoods.

Very nice! :mrgreen:
Shouldn't the cruiser's numbers start at 01 and end at 08 in stead of 00-07?
Nice idea!

Well, in the movie you see the words "EXP 4 EXP 5 EXP 6 EXP 7" on the computer screen with only 4 and 5 being active, indicating that the four of them are one group, and thus why the first series, IMHO, would be "EXP 0 EXP 1 EXP 2 EXP 3"

Looking good. Very good. Again, yours and Remdul's are the reason I didn't work further on my Explorer.
