<div class="IPBDescription">What does EVA stand for?</div>I don't have any special introduction for this, so I'm going to cut straight to the chase and post some pictures.

As seen in one of the pictures, E.V.A. stands for something, but what? I don't know. So I'm going to let the community decide what it stands for. NS_Eva takes place at a mall/resort/hotel like place inside an asteroid. The name E.V.A. needs to have something to do with those things.

NS_Eva is a Japanese/English hybrid ship. And please, don't expect this thing to be decked out with Anime. That's not the goal for this thing. The only "anime"-ish thing you'll see is the logo and most likely an Anime/Manga store. But that's it.

Anyway, onto the screenshots!

I also have a lounge type area I'm working on as another Tech Point. The layout I'm going for is the 5x7 Triple RT (5 Tech Points, 7 Resource Nodes). I currently have the layout drawn out in the Editor, however it is very sloppy and was only placed for walking distance testing. Here is the layout for it:
<img src="http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/8174/5x7.png" border="0" class="linked-image" />

I have a back story thought up, and I may get around to writing it down some day. Also, what kinds of shops would you like to see inside a mall? <i>Appropriate</i> shops that is. Nothing sexual :P
The stores will be spread out in the map so don't expect them to be put into one big area.

In the future, I will be asking for a female voice actor (preferably someone who can speak both Japanese and English fluently) and a modeler to do some small custom models (Tables, chairs, signs, shelves, etc.)

Let the comments commence!

    I think on that last screenshot you should put the fan blade proped up against a wall with some tools open.
    Get rid of those two orange pillars with the lights and double up the model in between them so you ave a noice encasing the logo then put the double spot light model center to it attached to the celing point to that wall with its logo.

    Perhaps one of the stores could be a "kharaa sushi shop" where they serve up skulks in a sushi roll.

    Also, how about

    The generic Hallway is a little too repetitive. Try cutting out somewhere in the middle, and adding some small and no-where going hallways in between. :]

    Eva stands for Eve, the Eve from Adam and Eve?

    I cut out a giant hole in the wall right there and now a small store is being added :3

    It'll probably be a TSA sign-up booth or something.

    built within an abandoned space station in the midst of the dead Virgo constellation.

    It's a Japanese/English hybrid type mall place built inside a giant asteroid that's floating around a planet.

    Actually, if you could try to come up with an acronym for some kind of A.I. that would be cool too. Because then I can do some really interesting stuff with the place that revolves around some super A.I. computer thing that runs the ship.

    How about Epideictic Virtual Avatar

    Blatant use of synonym finder but epideictic is something for show or something to display. So it makes sense in a way, A virtual AI thats mainly for show ^^ but would perform function like locating shops or ordering a space taxi or something.

    Been doing some custom texture work. It's all shiny because I am having issues applying specular maps to my images.

    Comparison to old hallway:

    So, got the first shop put in place. What should this particular store sell?

    <img src="http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/1600/store1.png" border="0" class="linked-image" />

    Try to come up with a funny name for it too. It can't have the name of a store that already exists.

    both?


    You could have a locker rental. You don't have to have only stores.

    A locker rental would be a good idea if I add in an in-door swimming pool or a spa or something.

    That's a good idea!
