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.

Love This Street

Reminds me of a cross between one of the maps from CS but also seems a bit quakey.

Remind me a lot the small Italian city named Dolce Aqua (i.e http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Dolceacqua38_-_Panorama_del_paese_vecchio.jpg )
Basically, it is a medieval city with this kind of small streets with alots of interconnections...

Indeed very quakey :)

to have atmospheric/lit control over fog like this in quake would be great too

Or, any engine even?

Yes.

I've never seen any game engine treat fog for what it is, which is the interaction of light and airborne particles. Generally the best you can do is hand-author colored particle effects to simulate the reality, which is lighter, more opaque fog near light sources, and darker, more transparent fog in the shadows.

NS2 does it I think (not sure if it's in the final game?) looks really moody.
