Oooh Classic Idmetal

H Y P E

can we get a nicer screenshot? :D

Thanks

#11599 posted by ionous on 2014/08/28 23:42:32

MFX: Thanks

RickyT23: Startlingly obvious, but it never occurred to me once. It feels like my mapping window has doubled in size, which is hugely helpful. Thanks.

MFX: Discovered it while browsing the <a href=http://www.noevdia.com/news.php>NED</a> website for new releases. The name stuck in my mind (didn't hurt the I liked the <a href=http://aluktodolo.bandcamp.com/album/finsternis>album</a>

Fifth: Thanks

Daz: There is no nicer screenshot. It's mostly wide-open areas that are only partially complete. This is one of the few places cohesive enough to represent the map in a positive light.

Looking good. The final arena still needs a bit more ammo, I think.
There could be more monsters given the large spaces... Maybe spawn in reinforcements when you hack the computers? (totally cliched of course.)

Don't know if this link will work but ... messing around on the long weekend. Coding...

Gore Is Good

Knave is done to death i heard someone saying last time around:)

Prove him wrong!

#11604 posted by oh, that person on 2014/09/01 11:42:45

Whoever said that is an asshole, Knave rules.

Is that a Knave and Zer combo? I always wanted to do just that.

#11605 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/01 11:49:55

The gore fountain is indeed inspired by Zer, but it's my own code...

Sweet

new willem map!

Dat Font Rendering!

#11607 posted by SleepwalkR on 2014/09/01 13:34:56

Also nice level ;-)

#11608 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/01 15:12:40

Right? I can 45 degree with the best of them...

#11609 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/03 15:58:39

So I got my OBJ to MAP convertor thing running .. you feed it an OBJ file and it places the MAP formatted text on the clipboard, ready for pasting into Trenchbroom. This SHOULD alleviate a lot of the issues I was having with trying to get good looking rocks and other shapes.

We'll see. It still carries with it all the Quake weirdness with plane accuracy and stuff. It works OK with simple edge bevels but trying to do something even slightly complicated and the planes start sliding off just enough to get misaligned certs where shapes meet...

... actually, SleepwalkeR : Does Trenchbroom use the grid size at all when handing pasted MAP text? Maybe that's why the planes seem so wrong sometimes. Probably not but it's a long shot. I'll try setting the grid to 1 next time I have a problem and see what happens.

Obvious But...

#11610 posted by ijed on 2014/09/03 16:35:43

Did you snap the geometry to grid after pasting it?

edit/actions/snap verticies

It has crash problem in TB1 when snapping large amounts of geometry, like entire levels, but thats probably just a memory issue.

#11611 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/03 17:12:45

Oh yeah, I can fix it by manually twiddling verts and such in Trenchbroom but I'd rather not. A clean paste is my goal. Heh...

Nope

#11612 posted by SleepwalkR on 2014/09/03 18:44:20

TB parses the pasted brushes just like it would parse them from a map file. The grid has no effect on this. I suppose that either you are snapping your plane points to integer coordinates, or that the process by which you determine the plane points is not accurate, or, finally, you're seeing the inherent imprecision of the vertex generation algorithm that TB uses.

#11613 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/03 18:52:15

Yeah ... OK, thanks for the info! It's close enough for what I need so I'll probably move on. :)

Ye Olde Screenshot Thread

1 2 3

Not much texture in this, mostly column01_3 with some runic addons:) What do you think?

#11615 posted by negke on 2014/09/05 14:26:48

Very nice.

Very Nice!!

#11616 posted by generic on 2014/09/05 14:27:15

You and Sock should conspire to build an episode ;)

Very Nice!! [Edit]

#11617 posted by generic on 2014/09/05 14:29:17

You and Sock and negke should conspire to build an espisode ;)

#11618 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/09/05 15:06:54

Gah! Really nice mfx. Love the architecture, wow...

#11619 posted by spy on 2014/09/05 15:18:16

You and Sock and negke and CZG should conspire to build an espisode ;)

I don't like these whitish textures though

How Could They Be Improved?

#11620 posted by mfx on 2014/09/05 15:27:27

Or just more variety overall?
Have the same issues, all looks alike..

Sauber :D Looking good. What I always wanted to try is make a textureset very specific to a level.

One of these days, once I got more time and am done with my other texture stuff I would totally be up to doing that with some people on here. As in you people map stuff, plop on placeholder grid textures and I check what the sizes need to be and make specific textures to fit what was made. /me shakes fist at time!

Negke Should Make An Episode.

#11622 posted by Drew on 2014/09/05 16:13:42

By himself.

The shots look nice. The silver key cathedral in particular stands out, and looks finished.
I wouldn't say that same-ness in looks is particularly prominent to me.
Maybe the ceiling textures/ architexture could be broken up in shot 3...
