The Titanic Mod brings people at one of the most detailed and accurate free 3D recreations of the Titanic ever made. It puts the player in a whole new storyline for the game Mafia.
The grand staircase model didn't exactly fit the new corridors so it had to be corrected. Now it fits perfectly between the entrance area and the connecting corridors.
Also the stair landing has been changed to match the design that was recently discovered by the guys from Four Funnels Entertainment.
Interesting comparison, this is how the same area looked a couple years back in this mod:

Amazing details! Question: As you develop better modelling skills, Can you imagine that you might turn back from time to time to remodell areas over and over in the future thus postponing the release of your project? Harsh question, please don't get me wrong. I know how a project should be developed from basic form to complex. Best wishes from your old venerator, Máté
I get what you mean. Actually, yes, quite a few areas have been improved through time as my skills improved. For example, the reading and writing room, lounge, B deck stateroom, bridge and even the grand staircase have been reworked a couple times to improve the accuracy, optimization and overall modelling quality.
Obviously this did take extra time on the same areas that could have otherwise been spent working on new stuff, but I feel this is just as important to a certain degree as this will eventually affect the game performance and continuity of visual quality.
However at this point, other than the steam engine model, pretty much everything is improved to a level of quality I'm satisfied with. So the areas I named above won't be remade another time, because the mod's development time would then be neverending. A 3D model is never perfect after all.
Cheers, dear Rob!
