I can vouch that it does, have witnessed this phenomena! Play Quake. Go into your Nvidia control panel and tweak the brightness settings. Go and play Quake again. Anyone tell me it doesnt affect the brightness? It does with FitzQuake for me! Im on an 8800GTS512 using XPHome32.
Lunaran, the Moon God
Religiously offending material to follow: http://www.chick.com/tractimages72818/0042/0042_02.gif I played on skill 1 after reading Lun's outpour. And yeah it's a bit forcing at places, even when I knew about it. Your architecture keeps getting better and better, but you keep pulling bullshit maneuvers with the gameplay
Sounds like Strombine - like the part where you walk into that big room and there are two snipers taking head-shots at you. I got killed - stopped playing at that point. you mean the ones that take turns firing once every ten seconds in the room where all the cover is as tall as you are?
The alternation was a tad nonintuitive (my fault), so I don't blame you for not catching on. It was designed to add some time pressure to keep the player moving around - the safe zones are always changing, but in a very predictable back-and-forth way. Two independent snipers didn't really give that away as obviously as a better-designed enemy might have (like a single helicopter in an obvious orbit or something). However, once you pick up on the pattern, it's actually pretty easy to clear that room without being hit a single time. A Gug in a room that size would have been reasonable. :) some textures were as if 8-bit reduced quality or something like this. but impressive lightning. and good level design. another good map that would go good in an episode along with "the hand" map and "sick base"...
i was stuck at the gold keycard, probably because had only quoth 1. the actual playing (shooting, monsters)... well.. decent. Just to repeat what the others probably said already: nice map. Good variation on the base theme with the DKT and whatnot textures. In most areas the conversion artifacts aren't noticable because of the dim lighting - colored lights worked well. Some areas felt a bit minlighty though.
Gameplay was ok on skill 1, a few quothisms here and there but it always worked out for me. No ammo or health problems. Found the upper RA secret by accident. I got stuck behind that girder thing in the GK room and between one of the outer walls and the rocks, lack of clip brushes there. You've expored the base theme very far - I'd like to see you try something else for the next map. ;)
