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.

Same but with Guild Wars.

Although I still look back on it as probably the best game experience I ever had (Vanilla, GW Prophecies, that is - before they just made it a massive n00b-fest full of win-the-game buttons)

Give it some time, it's short and the second half is interesting.

i wanted to say: that guy shoots forest well, which i seldom see. But then, I scroll through the pictures, and yeah, EVERY forest shot has fog in it. probably serves to prove that you cannot do forest without atmo tricks.

When a dog is chasing a car, it's more fun when he doesn't get to sink his teeth into the rear bumper.

Fun for who, though?

Go use them.

You'll want to cock around with the colours/brightness/contrast as they will be too washed-out for quake as-is.

oh yeah, i remember those from like 10 years ago. I love the hand-painted style. They'd probably lose all their character at quake resolution, but if you packaged them as high-res replacements i think they'd work well.

Decreasing the brightness a bit and increasing the contrast and I am sure you can get it looking fine.
