is this a map, episode or megawad? 

...Which is an upcoming jokewad for ZDOOM. 

It's certainly a mega screenshot ...

I love doom.

First pic looks cool as fuck, Killpixel.

oddly, shot 1 was started and completed in an afternoon. I wish all areas went by so effortlessly :(

all shots are very WIP, btw. 

 

I like them. 

Is pretty sweet also.

In the second shot the stripes of light are coming from the left? (outside of the shot)

The third one also has an interesting indirectly lit look. 

In the second shot, the stripes of light are coming from the top.

When I first started this map I knew nothing, not even that light had properties that could be manipulated (falloff, angle, etc) so I thought of this little gimmick to kinda get light the way I wanted it.

In shot two, you see a little bit of a white light texture in at the top, it's illusionary. Behind it is a shaft with a bright light at the end. This allows you to focus bright light into any shape you want, in this case, a rectangle. By moving the light closer or father away you can change the sharpness of the projected light.

It's a cool effect. You can have very controlled bright light in otherwise dark areas. The contrast becomes even cooler when enemies move between the shafts of styled light.

Now that I know how to change light parameters It's not my go-to way of lighting, however, I still use it for it unique effect in certain areas.

Here are some very early shots, the top right was the first use of the shaft light method.

I remember playing an old version of this... it was pretty unique. :) 

Good info :) 

Last shot reminds me of some architecture I used in the Monolith map in E.Y.E. Good stuff. 

The Rune of Black Magic is whispering dark secrets into my brain, Scoob!

bottom right shot looks so cool. Way to go. 

love those scooby-doo backgrounds.

I love how they light the nighttime scenes with shades of blue. I wonder if this was an influence on lucasarts adventures (esp. monkey island) which has a similar style
