Building fast isn’t always necessarily a good thing. And building too slow isn’t a good thing either. If your client wants it to be faster if you are building something huge or decent size, good chance that they don’t really understand much about building. (If you build too slow people might think you stopped building completely) Using plugins could be good however it wouldn’t really improve how fast you build by much. So basically if your client wants a good quality build then rushing someone isn’t a good idea
If you really want to build faster then just hurry lol As long as they are satisfied at the product i am sure waiting awhile is a good trade.
if youre making something big scale, try dividing sections of the map/building and building the separate sections firsrt then joining together instead of just working on it as a whole structure
creating the basic shape of a structure or maybe a simple floorplan (it can be very simple) of a building helps before building. planning helps a lot, and that goes for almost anything you do
Certainly a bold question buddy, building is all in the passion, time and effort you put into it. The more time and effort you put in, the better the build looks and the faster it is done. For example, I can stay on my setup building an entire home store that’s completed with mannequins, tons of detail in 24 hours if I set all my time in one day. If you’re someone who isn’t so fund of building, and you give up after a few hours, this slows your pace. Overall, building speed is within the creator, simple answer.
Have a plan. I waste so much time staring into the screen (probably more time than i take to build) just thinking. Before you start building, have an image of what you want in your head, and then start building.
Also never get distracted. I lose so much time just being distracted instead of focusing on building.
If you are using buildings, models, etc that are nearly identical, use an asset storage map and organize it somewhat. Now, you have a massive area to copy and paste from, and all you’ll have to do is tweak them to create uniqueness
The time you take to build depends on what you are trying to build. If you building something small like a simple house for example you may be able to do it fast. However if you are building something bigger like a store it will take a longer amount of time.
But all together building is a long process and takes time to accomplish.
As others have said, it depends on the type of game you’re making. Personally I’m a fast builder but thats due to practice and I already know what I’m making. This may tie into how long you’ve had a PC for as the more you type, the faster you get. This ties into your mouse as well as you just naturally become faster at doing things.
While I could not play your game (it costs 1000), your assets seem rather detailed so that’s why you are probably slower. Different styles also change your speed. Low poly is faster whilst more detailed builds are more complicated and slower to make. If you’re trying to go faster then try to cut corners (especially where players will not see, out of bounds)
Just keep practicing.
Why are you taking so long, though? It’s hard to answer this question without knowing what slows you down. Is it concept creation? Is it something to do with your knowledge on building?
A good way to become a faster builder is by being motivated and setting a goal.
I personally found motivation to do GFX (I do build too) by looking at other people’s creations. I’m a lot quicker and a lot move motivated at doing GFX now just because I saw other people’s work that I liked.
This actually depends on your planning and experience. I have you have a decent amount of experience you’d know what to implement in certain cases.
Here are some plugins which are EXTREMELY useful:
List item
BuildV4
SBS (Studio Build Suite)
Resize Align
GapFill
Model Resize
Model Reflect
Material Flip
Brushtool
Sorry that I couldn’t give you the links to them!
I wish you very good luck!
Generally I tend to try build faster too, building takes a long time to just generally get the correct details and design you want. There is no good to rush builds, it would be better making them at least suitable for what you want instead of having to change the entire thing or certain parts later. Trust me, rushing it will just make the final project turn out horrible, taking your time is the best option.
