Func_Msgboard: Inspiration & Reference

Posted by metlslime on 2003/02/17 08:18:34

I just wanted to know if people had any links to good websites for either level design inspiration (photos, paintings, concept art, etc.) or just for architectural reference. We had a thread like this on the old qmap, but we know how much good that does us.

Would be sweet if you could specify a design you wanted your own bones to be placed in.

"Could you arrange me in a sort of pile with five bones poking straight up? Make the middle one taller too."

It's not much to look at right now, but with a little more drab and less lighting it could be a pretty cool area.

If this doesn't look like a new FPS I don't know what does.

Really, really cool. Reminds me of Blood for some strange reason, possible the UI design.

Wow that's like a Quake level in real life with inappropriate lighting. Nice find.

Haven't read this yet, might be bollocks, might be good: http://altdevblogaday.com/2011/10/19/boss-design-tips-from-a-combat-designer/

Anyways, be careful with that link. There are multiple game design related posts by different developers each day and you can lose a lot of time.

#1735 posted by Spirit on 2011/10/19 21:28:15

read it and I recommend it if you care about boss monster design (should have mentioned the topic above). interesting tidbits.

I admire Giraud a long time. His strips are realy outragious, and cumbers on the edge of imagination.

Is it bad that I look at that Armenian church and all I see is the over done HDR?

MWH - Yes That Is Bad
