Func_Msgboard: MapJam 8

Posted by Shamblernaut on 2016/09/13 21:57:01

Cool jazz slides it's way into your eardrums, your companion draws in her cigarette, letting the smoke curl out slowly from her mouth. You take a sip of your vermouth and realise that it's time to get your black and white on.

This jam oozes sexiness and grittiness.

The rules are, greyscale only (fullbright color highlights are allowed). Being that making textures may be required, the deadline is Saturday October 8th.

The maps should be designed for or compatible with ARCANE DIMENSIONS https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/ad_v1_42final.html so get with that shizzle yo.

For your consumption:

Have fun mapping!

If it works in id1 then it should just work fine in AD...I think?

I tried to use a sky texture on a func_illusionary with an alpha value set to it around thigh height so it would look like a low layer of creepy fog....

it just renders as opaque and fullbright :(

why not put a water texture on it instead?

Its Not Bad

#57 posted by Shamblernaut on 2016/09/14 20:43:08

but the sky texture with the continual single direction movement looks better.... the water looks a little odd.

no matter... thanks for the suggestion :)

Or pit the sky below the floor and make the floor texture semi transparent

Noir? Sorry I'll Pass. Good Luck Silhouetting!

I'm gonna be honest... this theme sounds about as Quakey to me as military shooter or Steven Universe. I'm sure the talent involved will produce some good maps, though, so I'll be following the thread!

Btw

Textures

So I want to use BW knave. Mostly for wood and organics. Tried it myself. Not happening.

Any Good Samaritan have the will / time to convert them?

#65 posted by Mugwump on 2016/09/15 21:54:08

Holy shit! Someone has to make this into an actual texture for shamby!

I'll Get Onto It Ionous

Thanks Shamblernaut

Will check it after work. Probably seven hours or so.

These Are Exactly What I Was Looking For.

Thanks man. Now I HAVE to finish something.

#70 posted by Shamblernaut on 2016/09/16 08:20:12

let me know if you need any others converted, the workflow is pretty quick now.

Progress Check!

#71 posted by Shamblernaut on 2016/09/16 22:23:04

Post a screenshot if you have one. If not, no worries.

Here's some stuff of mine, very preliminary, unlit... you get the idea though.

Looks great shamblernaut. Not much progress on my side for now, only a little scene. I've been pretty exhausted lately for some reason.
