That first shot in particular is incredibly boss. I can see what DaZ is saying about the grey archways, although that kind of grey looks fine in the demonic head wall textures. Maybe an outer ring of trim in the green-grey metal would make them look better defined?
but where's that RL from? I'm assuming it some high poly version, but it looks surprisingly decent.
It's SP. Not many monsters yet though!
The archways change color now and then 8-) As you can see on the pic it has one color on the top and another at the buttom. I change the hue and color now and the to find something that fits better! Maybe a trim as Preach says! Release? Can't really say guess the map is 85-90 % done, and going fast these past two weeks, but things can easily change if mappers block strikes! 8-). Anyway Release is not that soon! Thanks for your comments! Probably. Or not. Maybe yes. Or not. Well, yes.
Quake 3 Arena. Aussenposten 08 http://www.creutzenberg.de/thomasc/thomasc4_01.jpg http://www.creutzenberg.de/thomasc/thomasc4_02.jpg http://www.creutzenberg.de/thomasc/thomasc4_06.jpg http://www.creutzenberg.de/thomasc/thomasc4_04.jpg Just a few nitpicks though.
1) I always thought those faked lens flares from lights in q3 looked awful :( 2) The sky is perhaps a bit busy with all those stars, but I suppose that is personal taste. Really like the lighting in the 1st & 2nd shot, what is down that brightly lit pit in the 1st shot? Looks interesting :) looks fantastic, I love the atmosphere. 2nd shot is money. Agree with Daz on the lens flares, but I actually really like the sky, don't change it!
Cheers!
I actually really like the lens flares, and I know some poeple won't... And the sky will be a reason to argue, too. The Starfield is moving really slow, but but there are fast moving clouds, too. Well, there is always the option to fastsky it ;) Looks great, man! I like the Quake3 levels that have that solid look to them. It's a "thick" sort of look and feel. The place feels like it could absorb rockets and not even feel it.
Playerload is about 3 to 10 people, the "playable area" is about as big as q3dm7, but much more vertical.
It is also very VERY interconnected. You can run in a straight line from one end of the map to the other end from many points in the map, you just have to cover height differences to do so. Still, r_speeds do not top 9800 in the worst spots (with geometric detail set to low). PS: I used an improved version of my old texture set from qfraggel3 with a few new ones as nobody seemed to use it and I can't find the time to do a new texture set ;p I did fill in the wrong textfield
Oh, and there are nearly no hallways in the map, I tried to keep it as open as possible. looks nice, maybe a bit too brown ;) Otherwise, I think i like the textures a lot. Need better shots/maptest!
The lens flares look weird, but i love the sky. Be careful with too many interconnections. After a few years of mapping on and off for Doom, I started something for Quake. It will be my second Quake map ever... and first in 11 years lol
This is what I've done today and I'm 95% sure I'll actually finish this one! http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh266/KJC1982/qmap1.jpg
