Task 6 - Prototype/Flythrough Build

My space station environment was put together and recorded in Lightwave Layout. Due to all of the pieces I created in Modeler being modular, I was able to copy and paste certain parts, such as the hallways, and place them in different locations on the station. 

Occasionally I had trouble with certain pieces clipping through each other, and hallway pieces not quite fitting together with the doorways.

Environment Assembly
 To start off the assembly of my environment I placed down the hangars and connected them with the wide hallway variants.

The next piece of the station was the bridge, which was connected by a 3-way hallway.

Then I created a hallway from the 3-way hallway which lead to a 4-way hallway, leading towards the canteen, the research room, and another hallway leading to the rest of the station.

The next thing I built was the dorm rooms and bathrooms. This was the hardest to put together, because there were a lot of objects in such a small space.

Then I made the narrow hallway that connects the dorms to the canteen.

When adding my dome-shaped rooms to the station, I had to place the hallways slightly into the room due to the walls being round.

Adding Props
Once all of the rooms were put together, I started adding the props into the map. The first props I added were the beds in the dorm room. I was only able to fit 3 beds in each room.

The next things I added were the benches and tables for the canteen. The tables were also used in the dome-shaped rooms and the research rooms.

The computers were mostly meant to be used in this room, but when I created the 2 different types of computers, I decided to use the wall variant in the research rooms.

In the dome-shaped rooms, I had the normal computer & keyboard resting on top of a table that was clipped into the back wall.


For the bridge, I also added the wall computers on the pillars inside the room.
