Looking very good, Text_Fish. Keep at it!

Oh, and going to be mapping in about two hours or so. Probably starting off with some Shape of Despair.

Sup 

A very quality start. Keep at it! 

Crappy fullbright shot. Just wanted to see how the scale seemed in-game. Admittedly, better than I thought:

Quake Mapping. Doom Metal (Mourning Beloveth). Starts in a hour.

here they are:

some of the blue lights weren't available in yellow, and vice-versa.

so I fixed that. 

Some nice variations.

Oh, and I'm mapping again today. In about thirty minutes. Monolithe is on deck today.

Thanks for the encouraging words everyone. Progress is going slow but but at least it's still going!

Ionous your streams have been great, I generally have them open on my second screen and try my best not to copy you. :P 

I've made the conscious decision to not start textures/detailed GEO until the basic layout is mostly complete, because I usually get bogged down in detail too early in a build. So while my progress shot isn't as pretty as TF & ionous', it's what I have

A couple ugly fullbright screens to show my bits of progress so far. For some reason I've been thinking a lot about the Oddworld games, and Rupture Farms specifically.

I don't think I've seen this use of crates in a quake Base map 

 

Shamblers gotta have crates full of meat! 

I'm going for sort of a slaughterhouse/meat processing facility thing. After all, a blood sacrifice works just as well whether or not the blood's pre-packaged. 

Danrul: Hey, whatever method works for you. It's certainly a lot more disciplined than my process.

Schnedwob: Yeah, I'd definitely agree you're getting the hang of things. A fine start.

Brush-laying and Triptykon.

Just a check to see who's out there, and at what point they're at. I'll start.

Um, half of one room finished? Maybe 20% done? Hopefully I can get back on track over the next two days. 

...Has been pretty slow. I have a heavy WIP outdoor area, as well as a half finished room and some other rooms I'm currently working on. I'll be going out for vacation this weekend, but I'm hoping to get this thing done in time (If I stop procrastinating). 

I have a 70% done map that I ran into some technical hurdles on. If I can force myself to remove some sections and shrink it up in places, then maybe I can release this behomoth by 8/11

I dunno, maybe 15-20% done with the layout? Certainly won't be as detailed as Ionous' map. 

I'll be lucky to get anything done this weekend because I'm contributing to a gov data hackathon thing. It's over 3 days :(

I have some fun ideas, but I think I will have to scale them back somewhat in order to meet the deadline. 

This is good stuff :) 

Literally nothing. As much as I enjoy playing on base maps, I find working with the assets quite fiddly and annoying at the moment. It's really put me off the whole project D:

Hopefully there'll be another map jam soon with a theme that better agrees with me. I love these sorts of things and I wish I had the gumption to participate.

Best of luck everyone!
