Because Fox is a fucking idiot and no mod seems to be doing anything about his bullshit of posting huge off topic gifs in the Wieder thread. You have him to thank. It's acceptable to do this so here, have 200+mb worth of his gifs because hey, it's hilarious right?

DELETED GIFS

Your mistake was in thinking that a political discussion thread has the same value as a thread about creating content for Duke Nukem, in a forum that is dedicated to Duke Nukem content.

No, we don't particularly give a shit about what happens in the general discussion threads. On some occasions I have stepped in and removed his excessive gifs, but I'm not going to waste a lot of time doing that. But if you come out here and start fucking with real threads that have value to us, then yeah we are going to do something about it.

Delete the fucking gifs Dan.
And tell him to quit doing it.

Just because you personally don't care about a thread, it isn't ok for him to pepper it with 100+ mb gifs.
Thread that doesn't matter =3800+ posts , 100 000+ views?

It's not about me personally, it's about this being Duke4.net, a site dedicated to fandom and modding of Duke Nukem games. And no, political fights are not important to this site, no matter how many people are into them. If I'm around and I see excessive gifs I will remove them, as I have done in the past, but I'm not going to hang out in a political discussion thread on a regular basis.

If you're told about the problem, you don't have to be around all the time to witness/ remove the gifs.
You were told about the issue. Duke4.net has a general section, so...it's not 100% just about DN games is it.

Just delete/move the gifs and feel free to delete all of this crap about it too.

Haha, you are barking up the wrong tree now. If it was up to me I would fix that for you by deleting that whole section. Be content with the action that has been taken. I would delete this whole OT discussion here but since I have been part of it I will recuse myself and let some other mod decide what to do about it.

You should considering having consistency with all the shadows in the scene since it's taking place outdoors.

Very Keen-like looking cool.

It will actually be a very hard thing to do. These grass texture is not change it's brightness, and I have to make a separate texture for shadows. I'm actually thinking about making this map without any shadows at all (except indoor areas).

EDIT: If I will add shadows to the grass, it will look like this (see the attachment). It looks ugly. So I will either stick to sporadic shadows or not shadows at all.

What, are you using fullbright colours? I'd recommend you just use regular colours and change the map visibility to achieve the same effect, except you can then add shading to the map. Also, that wall on the far end needs a sloped shadow.

[Gambini]

I think his design aims at cubic geometry and lighting. No sloped shadows.

Thanks! (Y)

+1 for your nickname btw!

Nice to see you still mapping! Planning on including a self-written music track too on release? That'd be neat.

Heh, yeah... I can't get away too long from build/mapster I guess I left it for a while, but especially in August/Sept en this month I've been building a LOT Possible one of my most free/fun projects I'm making.

And yes, I've lots of own music in my mind, so 95% chance I'll record a music track for this. Main problem is, since Windows 10 I can't record as good as I used to... I can't record with cable anymore, for a nice clean sound... Anyone familair with this?

[Mark]

Post your sound card problem in the forum's Hardware thread with some details. There are a few people out here that might be able to help.

Typically, i'm not a big fan of space maps and the ones i do enjoy are few and far between but this map looks really good. Can't wait to see the finished product.

reminds me of baptized in lunar dust. Is that incidental, or are loke's maps as much of an inspiration for you as they are for me?

[Sanek]

The last glimpse of 3D platformer. I would probably abandon this map, since nobody can help me with CON code, and I can't write a thing. I would probably start doing something more classic. I have a lot of ideas lately...

[Danukem]

Sanek, if you can wait 4 to 6 months, I can probably help you with the code. I coded a Mario TC with a lot of good stuff in it you could use, and I'm scared of Nintendo these days so I'm sure I will never try to revive it. But there's a lot of good jumping and platform features in there which could be ported over. Also we had the ? blocks which you could hit from underneath and make spawn things. Right now I am working on other projects which I expect to be done in about that timeframe.

Thanks Dan, but I will probably find a right man much faster than that.

Heh, that's funny... I never played that map! Honestly, I've haven't been active playing new maps at all last years (the only thing I played was the new official Duke Nukem Episode). But I'm aware this isn't the most original structure I made, so it's not that weird I guess

And Sanek, looks fun! It would be a shame to leave it. Take your time & try finishing it (Y)

I don't know if that's the actual shots from the new episode or you just trolling us, but anyway - THIS GUN LOOKS AWESOME!
