My working schedule was too hectic this month to have a realistic shot at producing anything worthwhile.

Sock, mind pushing jam3 to September? I'd like some time to recharge creatively...

Where The River Goes

If I was stronger
I could be a mountain range
If night was longer
Could I escape the day?

btw why the river goes rather flows

God I Hate These Textures

can�t get the light to look good, it�s bad..
Never should have started playin with them:)

Hrmmpf!

confession: I'm playing with them. decided to put my money where my mouth is. and, yes, they are - I'm finding I have to be real subtle with the lighting or the subtle detail in the textures vanishes, and using any other textures in combination ruins the effect.

So, I am learning, but I wouldn't build with these textures for anything other than a jam.

Well

#280 posted by mfx on 2014/07/21 18:58:17

I�m only playin with them too, don�t know if this ends up in a released map:)

I even scriptconverted the texures into some reddish Agba gate stone.

LOL

Shit script didn�t work so well, looks like Barbies palace.. Where�s Ken?

Excellent!

The only thing left for you both is a trigger_changelevel now.

#282 posted by Lunaran on 2014/07/21 21:06:23

build half a nice building, put the player start inside the changelevel trigger, and just point info_intermission at the building :)

Better Than Jam1_otp

And an automatic 18/20 from Tronyn.

Hmm...

#284 posted by mfx on 2014/07/21 21:34:02

maybe. An intermission map.. So i don�t have to struggle with gameplay? Perfect!

Ooops.

Never gonna get this thing sealed, detailed, lit and playable by friday. :O

#286 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/07/21 23:08:58

I kind of like that ... create a cool intermission map. Basically a fixed camera angle that the player watches from. Patrolling monsters going by or whatever ... might be an interesting challenge.

Challenge Accepted.

Ken is the guy holding the shotgun, on your screenshot, and he's looking for Barbie.

Lol Otp

to ensure the 18, some of the architecture has to be ruined though. that and fill it with ogres and ammo.

Okay, Finally Got Some Lighting Done

#291 posted by Tronyn on 2014/07/22 07:53:54

I may well still be overdoing it with coloured lighting. I'm not saying this lighting is finished. Suggestions welcome, the more specific (ie, light settings) the better.

I think the yellow light is too much on the green side, and that's effecting how the colors mix poorly. I'd try moving that toward a redder yellow, and tone down the saturation of the blue lights as they are a bit strong.

The exterior shot and the ceiling in the third shot look cool though!

Tronyn...

#293 posted by FifthElephant on 2014/07/22 13:23:02

That feels very heretic 2 to me. I dig it tbh

#294 posted by oh, that person on 2014/07/22 13:30:47

I don't mind the saturation on the blue lights myself, it really helps the ikwhite and the ikblue bits look good together.

The area from screenshot 1 just has to be another take on the "a narrow and desolate ravine" painting, doesn't it? Also it's a bit funny that I'm pointing that out in post no. 300.

Umm.

#295 posted by oh, that person on 2014/07/22 13:31:22

I could swear that I saw 299 before posting, not 293.

#296 posted by mfx on 2014/07/22 14:27:28

Looks nice, but too much saturation. Tone it down a bit..

#297 posted by spy on 2014/07/22 14:30:37

not a fan of colored lighting in quake
but those shots are looking particularly great

I Spot A Candle...

#298 posted by FifthElephant on 2014/07/22 14:37:35

Is this allowed? I thought it was vanilla only?
