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.

re: sidenote on the bottom...
I know Doom3 had dynamic IK for feet and I'm sure it wasn't even the first to do that.

Yeah, I'm sure plenty of games had dynamic IKs before Uncharted (Doom 3 is one of them). It was fairly rare at the time of Wind Wakers release though I think (which came out before Doom3).

Still that post is an interesting read.

Heh

Which Island Is That?

I'll admit my post was rather ambiguous on that point, but I will leave the riddle there for your discovery, as befits my whimsical and mischievous nature.

The Quake universe is real. Just look at this article, about the bloody Aztec sacrifices. Would be awesome to teleport there, at that time, with our rocket launchers and stuff, heheheee...

An aztec petroglyph I saw on Tv that depicted them piling up eyeballs and tongues, or something like that.

History channel, after a big battle apparently.

And there's always the bloodiest stuff related to Xipe Totec: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xipe-Totec
