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.

Asian Reference

Welcome to www.orientalarchitecture.com, a photographic survey of Asia's architectural heritage. Here you can view over 6500 photos of 462 sites in seventeen countries, with background information and virtual tours. This website is a collection of photos from many different contributors.

Lots of great reference there. The only down side is that the images are all roughly 600x400.

Hmmm Mebbe I Should Up Some Photos I've Taken In The Past That Have In

I remember the program, 'Making Their Mark' iirc; each episode followed one artist as they created an image specifically for the program. I held on to that particular image and used it for...oh, you know.

Maybe some people have links to good articles on leveldesign theory ?

For example gamasutra features, like http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20030603/licht_01.shtml

useful articles like that are hard to find, the ones on the TeamShambler site spring to mind though

Shouldn't the curve be flexing while the spike is piercing it and not before?

True, but this looked more jelly.
wanted a spark in it, and more rushy...
with the id comes the others.

I posted a bigger one, but the same name
returns me the stamp folio-size.

I'M SO INSPIRED!
