really? i didn't like the way there were just contrived things there to allow you to reach places, like those thick beams and that suspended platform. 

just reminds me how eye-gougingly bad much of the brushwork is in episode 4.

Putting r_fullbright on in that room is the Quake equivalent of opening the curtains for the morning light to illuminate whatever happens to be sharing your bed after a particularly brutal tequila party the night before.

But in both cases, whilst you can barely remember playing with it, you just know it was fun at the time. 

necros: That's what I love in Quake. Screw realism.

Got some nice reference stuff using 360 degree camera points + industrial sound! 

interesting concept with the 360+sound.
it's quite immersive, in fact once an image loaded with my 'back' to some dudes and when i panned over to them it kind of creeped me out how they were frozen in time yet the rest of the place felt alive.
shame there is a very audible looping and some of the samples are extremely short (< 4 seconds).
also, it helps zooming in one mousewheel 'tick' because the fov it's set at is a bit high unless you a pro gamer. :P'
thanks for that link!

Nice. That'd work great as a level portfolio format.

I clicked a Shambler link and didn't want to instantly sear my eyeballs out with hot pokers.

Nice pic. 

needs to be mapped instantly 

needs more WIZARD METAL ONE TWO but otherwise that's an awesome use of the swampy wizard theme. In fact the transitions from wiz1_4 to wswamp2_1 work better than expected. 

Looks similar to places in Yorkshire.

It is not often I see modern day level design (block-outs and scripting) on forums and explained in detail as well.

i just see a bunch of screenshots of the scripting.

Also, why did he choose to copy the single most boring thing out of rage? :)
