Author Topic: A quick map, Landscape (Read 10741 times)

Well, I took a break from working on swamptime and made a quick map, which i named Landscape since i couldn't think of a better name. I may or may not continue working on it, depending on the response I get. (There is only one path so far, not to mention it needs more cluttering)

edit: the second download is the newest version, info can be found farther down

Looks good, hard to tell without more shots

I disagree. >_> It's just lacking a lot of simple detail. Like not having huge channels of water with completely straight edges that are made of grass, or having some kind of texture transition.

SS 1, move the flag so that the grey is only visible instead of the flag itself

Looks very boxy, try breaking it up with some angles and such...

Thanks y00tz, your support means a lot to me.

I guess.

Knack's got 56k?

I got 768k Roadrunner

Demo attached. Three words of advice:

Use the grid!

Also, the map is in rotation on the beta server.

Edit: I think I neglected to cover this in the demo, but on one side of your water, it didn't touch the wall, so you could see the warp effect.

SmackWaters · « **Reply #15 on:** July 26, 2007, 11:01:46 PM »

What does 'node with unbounded volume' mean? I've been getting this error..

edit: Well, I fixed whatever it was

SmackWaters · « **Reply #16 on:** July 27, 2007, 02:06:39 AM »

-beta4 out-

I tried to fix all of the things jitspoe mentioned in the demo (lots of little edges, and used the grid

), so this should be the final release. Although there are a few little things jitspoe might bother me about, so I renamed it b4_landscape for now.

Some shots of some of the bigger things I've changed and the map download:

Looks pretty good, I think that even if you're planning on making it your final release, you should still release a beta. i.e. newcave_b4 or whatever, and if it's the final release, we can rename it, or re-download it after you rename it and upload.

Time to go play :d

Very nicely done I'll download it in a bit.

Or, If it's not the final, you can rename it b4_landscape

Changed all the downloads to "b4_landscape.bsp"
