...because someone complained about the lack of contrast in lighting.

the light doesn't fall off with distance? Use a different formula?

I think the lighting looks better in that shot^^

You might want to rotate the texture with the grey-ish brickwork on the slanted face just below the ceiling at the back of the shot by 90 degrees, it would make to bricks look like they have all been 'laid' horizontally, just a minor consideration which could be considered to add a minute level of realism...

V. nice texture theme and lighting work though!! 

does look better 

... of my current project: the outside is finished.. while missing monsters, etc... Tecture set used is HL / Doom3 / Nature / and rocks from Lunaran via distrans ;)

So is it so bad ?

No it is not. I think it looks great. 

I looked at speedy's photoshopped suggestion and tried a bit to make it work in the map itself. How's this for starters?

better! are you using fitzquake? other gl engines don't support overbrighting or whatever it's called so lighting may look a little flat 

it says "Wrote Tomaz34.tga" right in the screenshot :) 

I always use tq148 for screenshots and software joequake for actually playing Q1 

metlslmsmie: go map
plant: go fitzquake, take screenie again

Looking better and better. 

Thanks for the positive comments ;)

I'm currently working inside the bunker : new shots will come...

BTW, I'm looking for a base map big boss to fight for the final: any suggestions ? Maybe Quoth2 will have something interesting..

Wait and see.. 

Quoth 2 - ETA?

Would anyone care to say, dare I even axsk? ;-) 

Hey JPL, try Granito. It's in your mailbox! 

I made a new Quake1 monster. It's rather plumpy because of the odd angle it switches from back to front. It was my intention to make a monster of a elementary cube which comes alive.
But by making it wake up backwards, its walk behaviour has become rather drunk. Maybe I should make it wake up in front, so this strange habbit disappears.

before it should be...
it first has to be...

but thanks for the hint.

It hit me first with accurate placement and verticemeshes rubble.
I thought I furnished it with a decent attack load, still wonder how to avoid that nasty swing. 

So I started hacking around with Objective-C on my Mac and have come up with the basics for a Quake level editor. It loads standard Quake MAP files at the moment and has a barely functional texture browser.

It's more of a viewer, in truth. But I hope to add to it...

Thanks! 

nice work! any idea yet if it will be similar in GUI setup as editors that are out there already like gtkr or WC, or if it will be completly different or completly customizable?

i've been thinking of picking up a macbook pro soon and it would be cool not to have to boot into windows just to do a bit of mapping on the train. ^_^
