I'm wondering if the light coming in from the sky might be too contrasting w/ the rest of the hangar or if it's alright. Of course, I'm still working on everything here, so there won't be a headless ship or a big gaping sky at one end. 

Very impressive... Concerning the sky, personnaly I would have used a "black with stars" texture box... Anyway, the hangar and the ship are really well made... It's a very good work... Just a question: is for a SP or DM map ?? 

maybe 3 to 4 maps, maybe 8 not sure at this point. 

It sounds to be a big project... Good luck so.. ;)
I hope to play the first maps soon.. and now go map ! :P 

It's gonna take awhile (I'm working on Father's Day stuff today first)... I'm releasing the soundtrack probably under Creative Commons or something. 

Yes, I think the light from the sky has too much contrast. I agree with JPLambert: a different sky texture would be better. If you choose one that's less bright, you can get away with having a lower light intensity from the sky.

Otherwise, it looks like the ship is well lit on the outside. 

I'll go with a grey or the purple sky maybe. I don't want to use the star sky since it's too dark, and the hangar isn't in space. 

What are the r_speeds in the hangar? 

It's not full-VIS'd yet, so it's like 2200. 

apparently, there's a not-so-subtle trend among mappers on this board...

Scroll to bottom of page to see neotic and scrotch's new impressive looking screenshots. 

regardless of the borked gamma, this has some kind of ut-ish solidness i quite like:

wonder what textures he's using 

And here we have the magic of not-yet-elaborate func_trains:

Unfortunately with lighting on, the trains are darker - when they should be lit :( 

remember that func_* models are always lit based on where you built it in the editor -- even if they travel around, they still are lit as if they stayed in that original spot. 

Nice ! 

Ok, so if I have a light near the train(s) it'll be lit no mater where it goes? 

yes
yes

I had a new brick texture on the map, but the new version isn't downloadable for the moment,
see the screebies on http://www.planetquake.com/here/lostchildren.htm 

I don't know if it comes from my PC, but the screenshots links just gave me a 404 error (not found)... :(
Could you solve it please ? 

but i like idea Here, I hated th emvoie but really liked the look. 

You owe me a new pair of pants, as mine are now thoroughly drenched following a spooge explosion when I saw that second screenshot. A Quake screenshot hasn't got me so horny for a long time.
