Chainsaw someone in Gears of War. :P

I do agree though. The move towards realism has sacrificed the arty deaths that we used to see. I know that we were going to experiment with half animated/half rag doll deaths at some point. Haven't had a chance yet though... 

you should make sure the outer perimeter of your sprite is all transparent pixels, otherwise you get those floating lines and pixels you can see on the top of the flame and to the left of the barrel.

(also, in fitzquake you won't see the pink edges, but you'll still see the floating lines/pixels) 

They rock!:) 

ijed - you're right. At this moment I'm only trying to import the ZdoomGL models into Qmle, and so to Quake.
And as they don't understand a word quakes I have to make them understand that dooms isn't the legal arbitary...

No...kiddin, but it takes quiet some time to make them look right with all subroutines that I don't have had time to make the texture part.

I will try to convert the whole pack to Quake so they can be integrated just as the quake monsters. Point is I have to make decissions.
Doom models are, like necros said, split up in different framemodels fore the same monster.
So for the cacodemon and pain I have to relate to the explode scenes like hellspawn.

Fact is that they need some original subroutines what offers a lot of coding, like adding sprites to their acts. And something to make them divide to the costum monsters.

I tried to make a monster explode by tossing its fragments out of eachother, but experienced qmle always errors on not the same vertricecounts, even if they do.

metlslime- I haven't centered the sprite in fimg. In fact it's already a miricle to have a prog that handles these extentions.

A very strange feeling to see that doomguy in Quake.

Lighting is a touch yellowy, though: how about a bit of blue fill from the sky to offset the yellow sun? 

Hipshot

Fantastic ambiance there. The light pouring in and the overbearing structure built into the rock is a great looking setting.

If this is Quake3, is it possible to get some god/light beams coming in from the cliff edges? Would look amazing! Might be too much work in Quake3 though. 

very badass. can't think of anything to add atm, everything looks pretty solid. all the little plants and shrubs help push the terrain into looking very alive.

Disagree on this, the sky is yellow, so the ambient light from the sky would be yellow too.

Also, nice shots. 

"Disagree on this, the sky is yellow, so the ambient light from the sky would be yellow too."

Yeah, but then most of the scene is yellow. 

Well, the light is actually a bit more blue in the shadows, than orange. I had a version where the light was actually a lot more blue in the shadows, so it really stood out - looked pretty good. However, I wanted the art direction to be inspired by Quake(1), Quake2 and Unreal(1), so I decided to go with this instead.

About sun rays, I might do it - or not - depends on how good I can simulate the effect. I'm fairly sure I can make it look alright but not sure it will fit in the scene, with the clouds...

Although summer is more realistic 

(ok, too late. maybe next time, map seems cool, reminiscent of your speedmap, probably da r_speeds though)

Been working on this little map pack for a few weeks now, it will require episode 2 to run! 

When I think of combine oppression, I think of lens flare. 

but looks like an outstanding place to blow some shit up. 

not enough bloom.

Yeah I haven't been impressed with any/all Duke Forever stuff that's been released 'recently' (ie, in the last 2 years.)

I smell flop. 

...especially the part where because 3DRealms don't allow hotlinking, I had to copy and paste the url :P 

...I guess some of you old-skool quakers are a little bit biast. Which I can kinda understand, after the whole "Quake vs. Duke3D" media circus. Its like Blur v Oasis...

Fashion victims, sheep, trend-followers.....

hah! 

They just never finish anything.
