Which flame entities did you try it with - yellow or white? I can't imagine small_yellow to cause problems if the inside of the lantern cages are at least 20-24 units high. 

So much work! It's getting close though. I have to fix the lighting on some of the meshes, especially in the third shot, but I'll lump that into my upcoming mega-epic clipping brush pass.

L4D city environments always remind me of Tony Hawk games. I wanna ollie on that pavement.

It's only missing the bums and destroyable fire hydrants.

Looks good of course. 

Lookin really good, can't wait to get my grubby little hands on it. It's scavenge right? Or are you going to turn it into a campaign or some such? 

Survival. I don't have anywhere near the time necessary to do a campaign. :) 

... does it mean your q1sp is cancelled or just delayed? 

"does it mean your q1sp is cancelled"

To be honest ... yeah, probably. I just can't work up the energy to work in Quake these days. It's too limiting and I find that I'm just plain tired of the monsters. Maybe I'll get that spark back some day in the future... 

oh well, good luck making bus stops! 

Nice shots - your rockwork has never looked better :)
Also the lava falls are really cool looking. And the whole map looks very organic - like it is falling apart. I'm only gonna say that perhaps the lighting looks a little bright. It would be very atmospheric if it was a little bit moodier and darker, with some dark shadows for monsters to lurk inside :)

Willem:
Also cool shots :) I would like to see more of a distinct theme, like a specific location. Although I understand that you are finding your feet with the L4D style. And I also kinda understand that "generic suburbia/city streets" IS L4D style, so, er....... I dunno. Just seems very well built, but a bit samey. 

orl, I really like the looks of those shots and am looking forward to messing around with those textures myself. I love it when people expand on quakey themes like you seem to be doing! 

Looks okay but I would prefer more visual hooks. I liked that untextured building shown before. I think with all the props and detailing and effects and shit, the importance of impressive structures can be lost these days... 

quake does more with less. 

Some screenies of VeniVidiFuzi in beta.
I am almost there.., as I use a "dutch" QuakeAnnivers of 2010.

looks cool 

the city street shot looks really nice. i like the variations of roof heights as it makes it look like more than just a sky brush on top.

i agree, however i cannot say the same about the rock-tops in shot 3.. they seem a bit uniform. otherwise very nice though 

Slowly but surely you are becoming an 'on grid' kind of guy ;)

Nice shots! 

Thanks for you're answer!

@nintin - crunching my first terrainmap. It was a big chunk of Quakers outmeal, before I had the hom undom.

@necros - I would like to make them deeper in the horizon to enhance the feeling of depht.
But this map is so large I can't do anything more or I hit warnings.
32719 clipnodes.

@rj - strange, I added mdl-rocks to break up the uniform structure. Someone else complainted about the severence of uniform appearance.

@generic - I'm playing my wits to get it done! 

Are those hand rails .mdl? Personally I'd remove the blue dots and just leave them black all over - the blue dot looks stretched.

The rocky areas could do with some green stuff - especially in the last shot there's green in the skybox whilst the terrain the player will be exploring is uniform brown. .mdl trees, moss, plants or bushes? Doesn't need to be much, would just be a nice tonal offset. 

and play it, see for yourself in the newspost.
My greatest concern was to get the texture of the endboss in the same value as the brushtes.

But as models are lighted different then plain brush texture I gave up. More from the point of vieuw that every engine has its own light specs. GlQuake suits more, Fitzquake less.
Telejanos blackens out, etc. 

i would say you succeeded, actually. i didn't notice anything until the thing started moving. :) 

when you know it is different. It gave me headaches to cover up the texture.

First I thought it would be just making a screenshot of the brushside, and take the same part on the model.
Then the shape of the texture wouldn't fit, the seize started to get smaller, and finally I ended up with a mirrored texture.

Strange that the colour of texture makes that difference on models or brushes. 

I even have it downloaded, on a handful of different machines... look forward to fragging Granito again. 

It looked great in DirectQ, my favorite engine of late. 

Just a shot of the ship from my map.
