Just a little sandglass I made for Quake.
Hi!
It took a while but progress goes on. As has been disscused, nature textures are very tricky. 1. They look better before converted into the Quake palette. 2. Low-res or high-res? I think I go the middleway. High-res background to low-res models could look interesting. Progress for now: . terrain creation . added trees, rocks and bushes . added ground vegetation . reworked some textures . destructable buildingds and assets . asset box for everybody to use next steps: . creating some more assets . cleaning up and finishing this map . creating a map as asset box . creating up to three maps in jungle style As said in the last step I'm working paralell on the first map. My plan is to recreate what I call the holy trinity of action shooters of the 80's Platoon, Rambo F.B.Pt.II and Commando. For now I can show you the presentation video of the "jungletestmap" and will come out as a mod where future maps will be added. video: https://youtu.be/sCz38TEmQAM Pics: http://www.quaketastic.com/files/gsh_adoria/jungle/jungle14.png http://www.quaketastic.com/files/gsh_adoria/jungle/jungle15.png http://www.quaketastic.com/files/gsh_adoria/jungle/jungle16.png http://www.quaketastic.com/files/gsh_adoria/jungle/jungle17.png Presuming that's you, nice hourglass! I like how the sand suggests the outline of the glass you can't render in Quake. And if that wasn't enough, particle effects to boot...

Well, I made skyboxes as static entity that used 234 frames and they turned out well. So this time I thought to use the same qc for this sandbox. Then in game the animation starts on 88 and ends somewhere in 180. I don't know why. It are the same scripts, but somehow they turn out different. sandbox Check your email. These are technically my first maps so they may not look great. I have been messing with trenchbroom on and off for the last year and with the 25th anniversary coming up I thought now is the best time. Im also using Progs_Dump btw

Congrats on your fist map. I'm sure you'll get some constructive criticism here once it's released. But at least you are taking the first steps.
You're straight on grid with textremely and brush. I would concern to use more corner brushes to get rid of the blocky look. And use flat lights at the ceiling to avoid clipping cause.
take a look at these for some inspiration and tips

that book was unrealized. This man could tell a lot of interesting things. Should to give a credit to the testmaps sources it created. This is an invaluable help for young and experienced mappers.
Seems to be this gem was lost in the time and buried by author. Perhaps it would be correct to post it to quaddicted?

I've spent many many hours since February mapping, texturing, creating scenarios and trying other dumb experiments I had in mind. Most of those experiments are in a scraps folder, but because most of them will be useful for me in the future.
I've never had a closer experience with game development or level designing before, but here it is, my first attempt at a release-able map. It's mostly inspired on DM maps, and the idea behind the gameplay is to "emulate" CoD Zombies with a quick button hunt. Here, have some screenies: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938300422225930/spasm0002.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938318578057226/spasm0003.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938322773278770/spasm0004.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938323704545310/spasm0005.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938326371860500/spasm0000.png https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464536104809398336/856938331883438110/spasm0001.png Yes, art is not my forte and on the Quake Mapping discord I got some recommendations regarding texture selection. It looks a bit better now, I'd say. So let me know what you think guys. This is not finished: any suggestion will be taken in consideration and any issues will be fixed asap. Nacht Der Un-Quake-n Just want to share this cool looking robot Bal is making:
https://twitter.com/BafuBal/status/1386059635824734210 It's a replacement for the AD "hunter" robot (previously from Rubicon Rumble Pack), which originally used a model from Malice. Always felt QUAKE had some remenicense with the lord of the rings, so it needs ghostrider.
ShadowRider It was more work than I thought. As it are two monsters in one it kept breaking the limits. But I felt there had to be a ghost rider, as there is a ring of shadows.
And yes.., it gave me a hell of a nightmare. Seriously. Oh yeah, that reminds me, You never fixed the attack with the Chasm skeleton. The chasm Skeleton's current idle pose is suppose to be a melee attack pose.
oh you did? I apologize. maybe I don't have the latest version. But the skeleton should have four attacks total. melee attack, two sword attacks, and a blast attack.
I started a map a few years back when I had a little time off. I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the maps in mapjam2 so I wanted to make something in the same vein. I got as far as making about 1% of what I had in mind.
screenshot 1 screenshot 2 I started getting frustrated since I couldn't come close to what I saw in mapjam2. I thought that skacky's texture usage was brilliant but I couldn't match it, so I started a DM map to try and get more comfortable with the textures. screenshot 3 I couldn't finish it before things got busy. I like the texture set though and it would be cool to see more ikwhite/ikblue maps. The maps in that pack almost present as a greatest hits collection. In addition to skacky's texture usage, I couldn't believe what mfx, Scampie, sock, and Tronyn managed to pull off as well. |
