Micky's using sprites with the blend function, utilizing the additive feature Helixhorned added a while back that you can create with the LUA build of Mapster32.
What are you working on for Duke right now? "Post about whatever Duke related stuff you're doing"

Wow, this technique rocks =P
I think a blend table of division would be great for accurate lightmap simulation, because the simple additive blend doesn't actually light up the underlying texture. Just have made one for testing...

Being able to do that would be pretty sweet, I haven't really messed around with the functions Helix coded but perhaps it's possible to make one using that.

Still working on a map. Must to be honest, I am inspired by "Slum Noir".

Glad to hear that it was a source for inspiration!
If you want some of the same look, something I used a lot was PAL24/21 with low brightness, then it won't saturate too much and makes some textures look instantly more rusty and decayed.
Some textures will need a REALLY low brightness or they will look way too bright red.
Although using it often makes everything look very red'ish like in my case. And it will mostly work well with dark areas.
I can only imagine how a properly glowing neon would look in polymer.. That is something I kind of want to experiment next with since I wanted to have more visual ambiance.

Yep, I use PALs which u advised. Unfortunately I can't add polymer cos it doesn't have effects which I need (even neon with polymer in LA would be kickass).
The one difference between our maps is that my map is dark.

After 4 months of doing nothing I've returned to work. It's a spiritual successor to my Locked Up map, focusing mostly on puzzle-solving.
However, it's going to have a proper storyline and will be released as a rather small episode. Also, this is my very first hi-tech themed map.

Cool, that wasn't in the original N64 game was it? Would be cool if it had the same effect on enemies as the gas grenades in SW 'cause I've always loved that effect.

The nature of my site's content demands that I have immediate and complete control of the entire design and PHP files. I have no need for anything WordPress offers, and frankly I don't want to mess with the install.

Why would Hendricks need a giant potentially unsafe piece of third party software which requires external plugins for most functions attached to his small personal website?
That's just dumb.
When someone says, "How can I tweak this stylesheet to make it more pleasing?" the correct answer is not then, "Install third party software that potentially limits your style options and then redo from scratch based on it!"

It reminds me of the gas grenades in Zero Hour.
Yeah, they were scrapped in DN64, but I'm glad they added them into ZH. Great weapon.

Doing a second version of the textures folder in my mod for slower machines.
HR Folder is called "Model"
One with low res is called "Model_low_res"
Example So to use it you change its name to "Model" after changing name of high res model or getting rid of it.
The HR texture model for my mod is high res /detailed textures.
But I'm making another model with lower res textures (for people with slower machines)
In the folder I load very large textures, shrink them by ranging 25% to 50%.
And it reduce its size "in bytes" by 1/2 to 2/3.
Example textures of a sprite work boss takes a total of 24.5MB, is reduced to 9MB.
So people with slower machine can play my mod with no massive lag spikes from HRP textures especially animated textures.

Did a fun trick.
It has to do with hydrazine.
Not the medication but one of the ingredient to make Astrolite G.
And other interesting things in my mod.
Spoiler warning, well not really spoiler cus it still doesn't give a clue what is about except if we play the mod :0

I don't think we will see this mod get released because the FBI/Police will end up raiding Zaxtors house because of "terrorism"
#6178 Posted 07 October 2014 - 02:23 PM
There is no terrorism.
It doesn't show the instructions how to make it.
Just shows stuff lying around.
These 3 browsers. (on the computer on my mod)

Just a picture.

Tribune is a news site.
No instructions to make bombs.
So is not terrorism.
In movies we see people making bombs (no instructions or little)
