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.

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.

Shambler

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.

Where Is That?

Looks similar to places in Yorkshire.

Level Design!

#1830 posted by sock on 2012/03/29 18:48:30

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

Where's The Explanation?

#1831 posted by megaman on 2012/04/01 10:04:58

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? :)
