Oh Man

if it has to be a base theme, I think Colony is by far the best example of a base map with a "good strong theme that didn't get explored/used much by other mappers."

Lunarans Doom Style Textures

#24670 posted by FifthElephant on 2014/08/07 20:03:32

Have barely been used!!

NOOO

#24671 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/07 23:24:40

they're shit

if you're going to do that just use the actual doom textures

#24672 posted by necros on 2014/08/08 00:11:48

why are they shit? i like them, they have more grit on them then the stock doom tech textures.

the real trick is converting them to quake palette well. i didn't like czg's attempt as they turned really teal.

#24673 posted by FifthElephant on 2014/08/08 00:51:20

Those textures are great. I will make something with them eventually :)
probably a quoth base map

#24674 posted by Lunaran on 2014/08/08 03:37:53

That grit is just visual noise. It looks like looking at concrete but really really close. The panel edge highlights are stupidly intense as well.

The whole set just looks messy and cartoony to me now, and I can do far better.

#24675 posted by necros on 2014/08/08 04:15:05

Maybe because I saw the in Q1 first... but I find the noise works better when they are at 50% and without texture filtering.
I still think you are selling this set short though.

Or include the 24bit ones as external tgas... like that one doom map that someone did.

#24677 posted by necros on 2014/08/09 05:05:44

haha yeah, that's always an option. :)

I think i'd still scale them down 50% so that the pixel density matches the rest of the game, but kept the original palette.

Aftershock Textures?

Those noisy purple bricks should look stylish on something.

Not if you are looking for mapping discussion.

#24686 posted by oh, that person on 2014/08/10 13:38:05

Absolutely if you're looking for mapping discussion, there's been plenty of fresh and intelligent discussion the past few days following both the jam1 and jam2 releases.

Yea, I thought that discussion were also taken on some irc channel by people on these forums =)

My earlier "OK" was directed towards Spirits answer, but your post got in between.
