just long enough to let the player get their bearings back
Yeah you do have a point... an effect that comes from testing your own stuff I suppose. Was having some trouble with monsters not waking properly there so I was kind of worried it was gonna break again :E
Will probably leave it as it is timing wise then :)

Could use more melee action and less sniping though
It's only one fight, hopefully you'll get enough of a close combat fix from the rest :)

I can't wait for this map, zqf. It looks amazing so far. I haven't been this excited for a base map in a while!

No, not a quad shotgun, just a four 'shot' panorama

Wow

Mike gives me wood-ham. Tronyn, too. Cool that you finally seem to have made proper use of the sorrow scrap. Now I can delete it from my editor folder.

Omg

So many good maps coming out soon, and so little time to play them. :(

#7284 posted by Trinca on 2011/01/23 21:49:31

Awesome

That looks awesome, simple, yet very cool, it really makes you think that you are there. Can't wait to play that map...

mike: looks like a cooler moria. :D i love that the upper area is shrouded in darkness. makes everything look even bigger.

tronyn: the scale is insane, especially on those industrial shots. ;) i was staring at the first industrial shot trying to place it, and then i noticed these tiny little ogres in the corner.
looks like you will be giving arwop a run for it's money. :P

also, i can recognize some stuff in those somethingwicked shots. ^_^ glad you could make use of it!

Mike.

I need to change my trousers.

But Oh Dear.

#7288 posted by Shambler on 2011/01/24 11:08:26

Trouser fail, I now need a 3rd pair after seeing Tronyn's shots.

Great stuff there.

Tronyn

#7289 posted by nitin on 2011/01/24 13:20:46

nice styles.

Mike, that looks great.

The style in that Dry Sorrow(?) map is ace.

Nice Shots!

#7291 posted by generic on 2011/01/24 14:07:32

Mike & Tronyn! It's nice to see those scraps lit and so well put together. Can't wait!

Have you tried PanQuake?

Would be nice if someone made a nice modern shader based version of fisheyequake and panquake...

Playing With Coloured Lighting

#7294 posted by ZealousQuakeFan on 2011/01/25 19:47:50

A slight use:

Same area, more dramatic version, unsure about the colour combinations and positions though :(

http://www.zealousquakefan.com/images/arrival/zqftest03_construction51.jpg

Different bits

http://www.zealousquakefan.com/images/arrival/zqftest03_construction50.jpg

Thoughts?

#7295 posted by oh, that person on 2011/01/25 19:50:47

Shots 49, 52 = tastefully done.

Shot 51 = foul.

Shot 50 = unsure, but it might work well in game.

#7296 posted by Spirit on 2011/01/25 19:51:29

slight use: very nice! might be even more subtle I think.
dramatic: looks like Shambler's rearside

Make sure not to create annoying grunt sniping gameplay, See http://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/sickbase.html as a anti-example (sorry Ricky :) ).

Question On Strong Colour

#7297 posted by ZealousQuakeFan on 2011/01/25 20:09:38

With strong lights, is it generally the saturation, the position (which wasn't thought out, I'm experimenting so was just matching them to the texture of the light source :p ) or the clash of colours (eg would switching spot lights to white improve it etc)

or is just the whole theme of the lighting shit?

ta for feedback :)

#7298 posted by rj on 2011/01/25 21:18:35

51 just looks like 49 with the white light removed :P

too dark and saturated. the other three are all nice though.. the colour complements the normal light rather than smothering it

Correct Comments.

#7299 posted by Shambler on 2011/01/25 21:47:22

Subtle good, over-colourful vile.

#7300 posted by necros on 2011/01/25 21:49:44

google up a colourwheel for painting houses and use that to figure out what colours to use.

full red/full blue lighting next to each other = ugly as fuck.

First Shot

#7301 posted by jt_ on 2011/01/25 21:50:33

Looks amazing.

Had Another Go:

#7302 posted by ZealousQuakeFan on 2011/01/25 22:10:17

Okay, a go at making that big room darker but less urgh...
Dropped saturation, increased ambient again, but moved the lights lower:

Too dark? Blue too strong? :E
