Heck yeah, that's a lot of work there you know.

[Arwu]

seeing these complicated structures makes me sad.. Im never learn how to make something like this. : (

[Micky C]

Well I don't know how everyone else did it, but if you remember my version:


This is what it looks like in 2D mode, hopefully you can figure out how I created it.

Hell's gonna freeze over when William Gee finds out about this, you plagiarizer.

Don't get down, even a huge high-poly game model is just made up of loads of little 3d dots called vertices. Every vertice looks just like a little dot, like this: "." with the space between the dots filled in with colour.

So if you think about it, anyone can make a great game model. All you have to do is "." the same number of times that the people at Epic games have rung up the old cash register for Gears of War.

It's simple when you think about it that way.

Ok I'll admit it! I'm a fraud! The only way I could build anything remotely close to that quality was stealing from WG's maps

OK, I gave it a try... am I doing it right?



I'm rather new at this... I may have to playtest the map to make sure this works properly.


Edit: So I tested the map, and I died instantly! I guess I made it a bit too difficult. Will have to tweak it a bit. Here's the 2D map for reference... Maybe someone can figure out what I'm doing wrong.

[Micky C]

The player died because the map is so awesome.

If you tested it from within eduke make sure the green arrow is inside the sector by placing the white arrow there then pressing scroll lock.

Actually, even with the player start position in the sector, the player dies since the sector is extremely small.

I'm very proud of this particular piece of work. Not only did I match Hendrick's level of quality, but I felt really bold and managed to pull it off on a bigger scale! Man, I was really running dry on inspiration by the time I finished this bad boy up, but I think the fog pal makes it nice and snazzy and puts the icing on the cake.

Edit: Let's see you use the jetpack on your level Hendricks

Looks too brown and bland. Like a modern shooter. 0/10

[Arwu]

Achenar. player dies because you used too much brown brickes ! Also, delete some sprites because there is too many of them and theyre blocking the player

[Tea Monster]

Duke spawns, takes one look around, and just spontaneously combusts due to the shear awesomeness of the level. He just manages to shout "Not worthy!" before he bursts into flames and dies.

[Forge]

tried B_C's map. totally unplayable; the frame rate was horrible and my rig kept lagging

[Hank]

can't resist, before the thread goes super boring

a prototype boy/girl twin - evil nature - catch? No clue how to render this in Blender, and the Dogmaten Schuhe are lost. But hey, my true first try

[zykov eddy]

Pretty good model, but just take a look at what I've got. I started it a week ago, and I think I'm making a big progress. The model is being made exclusively for my new map.






Here's how it looks on the map. Also, check out the amount of spritework.

[Gambini]

This is so funny!!! I hope no one ever posts a serious shot again and all 2883 members come with their tile0 joke!!

lololol!!!

[Mark]

3DR stole my idea for that brick texture back in the 90's.

Amazing stuff, but you should disable texture compression for that model to make it look perfect!

Indeed, although the model still needs to be rotated to the correct angle. But don't bother, I'm working on a maphack file to fix it.

With the rate this mod is progressing we should find a marketing company soon.

[Mike Norvak]

Hey guys I can make a trailer showing what has been done so far, I'm planning to use this awesome track as background music.

[Radar]

So many modulations, chord progressions, and time signatures. I've never heard a more complex piece. Definitely put it in the trailer!

Make sure you make a game demo video showcasing dynamic and moody lighting and quality animations and then not put them in the final product. That seems to work.

[Jblade]

Normally I don't mind a joke, but I agree with Gambini when he says it's been run into the ground guys.

I am green with envy

Spoiler

My model is for real. The shoes and clothing were exported at a wrong scale, so when I opened Blender they got lost. (If I find a way to export directly from Lightwave to md3/EDuke32 I will toss Blender) The base is from Make Human, but the boy/girl face took a while to get it right. Still, the joke is on me, I've got more greens being silly ....

[Mark]

I agree. Time to get serious again.

I was going to post a shot with the tile 0 projected with a polymer spotlight, but luckily for you it doesn't seem to work. Apparently projections only work for tile 1 and above. I'm a bit surprised actually since if you don't want a projection you can just leave the owner as -1, therefore there's no reason for it to act the same way with owner 0.

But I'm sure Mark. can post a picture of something he's working on to get this thread back on topic

Edit: No? Ok, well this shot's been sitting on my computer for a while... it's an intro map for a certain episode which a lot of people should be able to guess.
