# makes no sense to change the tex as these are brick tile things
# no coloured lighting in this as the original game had none (next stand-alone map I think I may do something like Stark Monstrosity with coloured lights and stuff) # no, but thats a good idea # already got my ambient drip there # The detail in there is already much higher than the original game, I am almost tempted to *remove* some detail!! distrans, Kinn kind of got why I changed the texture, a couple of my maps have the brown texture go grimier and greener the more you go down and get to watery bits. It still feels very id-like and quakey while bringing some freshness to the texture use. Overall I'm actually looking forward to making some Sandy Petersen style maps most, they were weak on detail but had some toughness which I tend to prefer in maps.

DarkPlaces it is called, and yes there�s a port for OSX too.
@Sock, no more screens, we want releases!! (Looking too good;)) I'm playing with Quakespasm. Sock, will your little warrior thingy be playable on it too ? Hmm ? Don't drop QS !
@Barnak, In The Shadows will still work fine with any Fitz type engine (Fitz, MarkV, QS) and now it fully supports DP features as well. Obviously Fitz engines don't have much eye candy but the core gameplay/assets are still present.
@mfx, it will be coming out soonTM ! :) Anyone mind testing out my doom map?
Just add me on steam and i'll PM you the link. http://steamcommunity.com/id/Breezeep/ I made this nice room but decided that it was too similar in theme to the previous map textures so I gave it a lick of paint.

In the second one the repeated green vegetation pattern becomes very obvious
It needs less chunky and more detail, its the year 2014! :P
On a serious note, the lighting looks very flat and even across the room. Try to break the symmetrical torch arrangement by the doorway under the stairs. The banding of the textures looks too neat and tidy for the vertical space, the upper dirty bricks should extend downwards more and be uneven in vertical size. Feedback is feedback, 5th can easily just ignore what I suggested if he wants. I think it is better to comment than saying nothing.
Id's original level design already exists, there is nothing wrong with adding your own flavour to things, otherwise its just a perfect copy. The idea is "like id did", but I think there are areas which are similar enough to the game that I may get a bit of negative feedback about (and already).
I've tried to make the lighting as varied as possible to mask the large flat walls. But it probably needs a few more tweaks. Why not have the swamp bricks just along the waterline, like they've been affected by the water but the ones further up are dry. Could put some decals on the plainer parts of the wall too. Or even cage the torches off to create some cool lighting effects. The roof could have some lighting effects as well.
