I Was Gonna Say 
Put some rubbish mapobjects in the corners - rotting wet newspaper, piles of ash and stones, maybe a scorch mark here or there. 
Indeed 
Very nice ! Add details here and there (crates, pipes, barrels, etc... ) and it will be top notch :) 
 
Kind of has an Unreal Tournament kind of feel to it. I forget the name of the map, but I'm thinking of the one in the parking garage... 
From Yesterday EVEN BEFORE YOU POSTED HERE HARR!

2009-09-08 00:39:36 (@megmn): kaz's latest stuff looks nice
2009-09-08 00:39:40 (@megmn): so solid
2009-09-08 00:39:41 (@Zwiffle): that's pleasant
2009-09-08 00:41:12 (@Fjoggs): looks rctw'ish
2009-09-08 00:41:18 (@Fjoggs): *rtcw 
Be Careful 
with the details though. i like the general sizes of the larger brushwork-the solidness-but the details have a bit of the 'brushes that don't look right' feeling. If that makes sense et all. 
What Texture Set Is That? 
reminds me of a cementized version of q1met. :P 
Thx For The Replies! 
The horizontally ruled cement is from ET, the wood is from RTCW, the rest are mine. Anything not mine will be replaced before anything is re-done before I release anything, I just need placeholders because texture stuff is tedious! :D 
I Can't Type 
"will be replaced before I release anything." ..... 
Thanks For The Vis Explanation Way Up There ^ 
I'd always wondered why it was such a cause of pain. 
More Wood ... 
Sock 
u rock btw, awesome warm looking woods and pro shading 
 
The second shot is -spectacular-! 
Now 
That's nice! 
How Much Of That Is Modeled After Reference Photos? 
 
Woodwork 
Started with a lift shaft and a junction room and merged them into each other. The woodwork design is based on my memories of wood beam structures in cellars and under floor boards. Took me a long time to find the look I wanted and lighting, many versions. I know it is not perfect, but it is interesting enough for a connecting space. 
I Can't Find Any Fault With That 
Except maybe having a hanging lamp type thing in the centre. 
Lovely Lovely Texturing There 
 
Another Puzzle Room 
Something For Fun... 
http://necros.quaddicted.com/downloads/ne_qep1.zip

did this on saturday, it's e1m1 -> e1m7 glued together in one giant map (minus e1m8 because it would have required a mod to get the gravity to work).

i kept my own mapping down to a minimum and only built two very small areas to help connect the maps together, but apart from that, the exits from previous maps connect directly to the entrance for the next map.

in particular, it's cool to be able to run all the way across e1m2 to e1m5 and back.

eventually, i want to paste the medieval and metal DM maps in as well and connect everything into a very non-linear single map and basically double up on monsters to bring it more in line with modern difficulty levels or something, but i wanted to put this out first in it's original form.

have fun. :P 
Necros 
Should have required a dedicated news thread !!! 
 
well, it's nothing new as it's just the maps we all know. i just thought it was cool to be able to move freely about between them, but i guess it's less cool to everyone else, lol ^_^ 
Dang! 
Looking forward to play this!!!!

But I'm @ office and Fruitz Of Dojo's Gl Quake crashes badly. Fitzquake 0.80 the same.

Can't wait to get home! 
Yeah 
you'll need fq 0.85 atleast :(

goes over quite a few limits, clipnodes, edicts, faces, etc...
the funny thing is that it only takes 7 minutes for a full level 4 vis (the whole thing is about 7300 brushes). just goes to show how huge a difference it makes when you have maps designed like id vs maps with outdoors or terrain or whatever. 
*gives Necros A Facial* 
haha this is really cool necros!!! i played up until the third map, got kinda boring - same old thing we've played 100 times already. but it was neat seeing each new map joined up. goes to show how far we've come that we can glue an entire id episode into 1 map!

if your joining more up, you should do a mass find/replace on the textures and replace them all to more modern textures. that'd look cool. 
Noticed A Few Bugs... 
perhaps these bugs are actually in the source .map files as well, but i noticed a couple of wrong textures (e1m1 first platform down, floor of e1m2 hallway with quad) and some misalignments (e1m1 slipgate front.)
