— Joint Venture Nibor – Projects: Robin # 12: UU Room 3b —
Robin # 12: UU Room 3b
v00: Horo
- Initiated by: Horo. Date: 29 January 2006.
- Motto (by David): Due to the high levels of background magic
in the vicinity, a typical map of UU vaguely resembles an exploding
chrysanthemum and is usually only valid for a day or so. Some rooms
contain other rooms which contain the room you started with (especially
problematic for a conga line).
One of the most notable rooms in UU is Room 3b. This room
is not believed to exist, but a surprising number of classes are scheduled
there. In fact, at times of great celebration in the city of Ankh-Morpork
it is not uncommon for the entire faculty to be teaching there.
Since the contents of all magic libraries are in L-Space, it
is possible to enter a Library in one city and exit in another.
Horo created two L-shaped rooms with a square room in the center and
a door in each corner.

Alternatively, the scene was rendered as a panorama with the same settings
otherwise.

v01: David
- The curious effect with the ceiling grittyness was a bug induced, being
due to the fact that two surfaces were intersecting exactly. It took David
a while to track that one down but he did and lowered the ceiling slight to
prevent the collision and show things in a more correct and predictable light.
Due to this change he seperated the uppermost light to a different group and
increased it. The pillars were modelled in wings, David went for something
baroque. He applied a mottled stone effect materal and put in a bit of carpet.
He moved the camera to take advatage of this effect of semi transparent walls
in the way it «processes» the repeated images of the pillars.

v02: Horo
- Horo put on a panelling on the walls, gave the floor a stone material,
changed the pattern of the carpet and changed the haze of the atmosphere.
- Bryce Source File Size: 25.0 MB.

v03: David
- David changed the main ceiling material properties, removed all the existing
lights and replaced most of the central pillars with light tubes. He also added
a bookcase model with some books — the book and the bookcase was made in
Wings3D then put together.

v04: Horo
- Horo removed the three lit pilars in the middle of the room and also
removed the pillars at N, E, S and W to replaced them by lit ones. He put
lit pillars in the 2 L-shaped rooms at the NW, NE, SE and SW corners and
reduced the reflection of the roof.

v05: David
- David added a table and several lightning spheres, the main sphere
on an elaborate stand made in Wings. He adapted the lighting.

v06: Horo
- Horo put two opened books on the table, set a violett octahedron on
one of the bookshelfs. The carpet got a wooden frame around its edges.
Somehow, the violett light disappeared from the ceiling.
