Hiya. I've gotten mapping again (bit rusty). All brutal opinions of the following are welcome:

Get rid of the minlight and make all those lights brighter. If you're going to bother making architecture, you should bother to light it nicely so it looks decent.

Other than that, looks solid.

the brushwork looks fine, but the lighting needs work.

the first shot is almost completly dark to me, the second has no contrast at all and the third is the same as the second.

Looks Like A Cube Map

I like cube and everything, but that was not a compliment.

There's no minlight... I was experimenting with radiosity. I'll try relighting normally, then.

Thanks guys.

maybe decrease the amount of light bounces then?

Try experimenting with gamma correction.

Boo!

Hey!

#632 posted by - on 2004/02/18 18:30:48

that looks totally cool :D

Yes

#633 posted by R.P.G. on 2004/02/18 23:43:30

It looks like something I would do if I would just follow through with my ideas.

How come I see Q2 weapons?

#636 posted by - on 2004/02/19 08:31:59

perhaps becuase it's a Q2 map...?

Yeah

#637 posted by Maric on 2004/02/19 09:22:20

It is a Q2 map as a matter of fact.

He's finished his first Quake map but since then has gone back to his 'comfort zone', which is, surprisingly, Q2.

Looks nice too

Phfffttt!

#639 posted by Maric on 2004/02/19 11:02:00

which is, surprisingly, Q2.

I reiterate... Phfffttt!

Okay!

Hm...

#643 posted by necros on 2004/02/19 15:29:27

i really only like the last shot. the first two are rather uninspiring... although, there is some nice vertex work on the computer terminals.

I always like it when there's clips or supports or something around the glass so we can see how it's held up. It makes it feel more solid.

#645 posted by LTH on 2004/02/19 16:19:54

Yes, I was thinking about that. Then I was thinking 'god damn that would take some effort'...

#646 posted by necros on 2004/02/19 22:56:24

effort is what makes a map good.

#647 posted by LTH on 2004/02/20 06:21:05

So I've done it, already...

Ok, Yeah, I'm Dumb

#648 posted by H-Hour on 2004/02/20 09:41:11

For some reason I thought "your comfort zone" was just that style of map, with the rock floating in the void thing. I get it now.
