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

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.

That looks good!

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)

[Gambini]

[Sanek]

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!

[quakis]

I'm gonna be the negative nancy here but feel it needs to be mentioned - I think the weapon is taking up too much screen space, which reduces available field of view for players and a reason alone to avoid using it over other weapons; the scope is probably its biggest culprit and stands out with its density compared to other parts of the weapon. As a personal rule concerning weapon graphics; no bigger than a 1/4 of screen space.

[Gambini]

Thanks for the feedback, im not nancy BTW. The size is yet to be defined, but it will be on the lines of that because i like beefy weapons to stand out.

What about this: the weapon looks a bit different too:

[quakis]

Definitely a better size and loving the recent touch ups.

Good catch on the first one, specially because most of the inspired part is not visible. The second one is only simlar.

[Sanek]

Good news: I find the man who will do the CON work for my project. If you follow my mapping history, you probably already figured out who this man is.
