    Got some time tomorrow, and hopefully I'll be finishing up this edition of the map. This portion runs into the hive. I'm pretty sure you guys will like the hive. I've embedded some annotations of Hera, Bast, as well as a little bit of Nancy. I'm not stealing, ripping, or using the said maps, just architecture, style, or scaling of the maps. Full credit given to original designers.

    For ideas about the 'clean theme' and appropriate lighting you could watch the film 'Moon' (2009)

    I put screencaps from that film here <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=112561" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/in...howtopic=112561</a>

    Yeah, I've tried ideas like that. However, I can never really find it in me to rip off someone elses hard work.

    Nice Map! Looks amazing! I hope it the corridors will be dark so marines need their lights. Any nice pictures or maybe a video?

    Thanks Dr_Cox1911, I won't be able to post anything tonight. There are some problems with my video drivers or something.

    Alright, I'm not too sure if it's just me, but my editor keeps crashing. I've updated my DX9, as well as my video card, and it still keeps crashing. After about ~1 to 10 minutes, the editor crashes on me, I can save, reload the program, continue my work, and then it'll crash on me again. Can anyone confirm this please?

    I'll try re-installing. See what happens. If anything, Thaldarin, mind sending me a copy of your common/NS2 folder? Maybe there's something up with the cache files.

    Re-installed, same things happen. Load up spark, work for a little while, and then BAM! Makes my video card crap out. It's a brand new one for pete's sake!

    Not sure if this is relevant in your case but I had this issue and it was my video drivers where the Beta drivers and where buggy.

    That's what I had thought as well Wolf, but I tried my old video card, and it still had the same effect. Even after uninstalling, reinstalling drivers. Maybe it's the editor?

    Any forced settings, like FSAA, multisampling and such? If so, maybe create a profile for the editor to have it all set to application preference.

    No forced settings at all. I put in my old video card, and it does the same thing. I've even defaulted the video card, and it's still bugging out.

    I like that. That door is nicely adjusted and lighting is really nice both side of door. Althought those rails, what you got middle of hallway, now looks wierd.
    Keep up the good work.

    By the way, I love WIP pictures. They give viewers something to think and feedback is more than "wow thats awwwwsome!"

    Thanks Varathar! I got rid of the railings, I was going with an idea that I had on my papers, but it didn't work out as planned. The ramp after that door is also being a bit troublesome. Let's see how this goes :]

    Small update... Nothing too serious. Finally figured out what to do with that giant empty wall in the main hallway out of marine spawn.

    Hmm. I noticed that those yellow/orange lights near floor are quite bright and they don't look natural. Try to make them a little softer.

  • UncleRayUncleRay Join Date: 2010-03-08 Member: 70881Members
    Yeah, I'm still at the stage of playing with lights in here. Sometimes I get lucky, and get a good combination, but this junction hallway is a pain in my ass! I'm thinking about deleting the lights near the cages, and replacing them with something a little something more subtle. Like pipes, maybe another light prop, or heck, maybe just get rid of them.

    I think you color choises are good and don't delete them yet.
    Actually I got one rooms lighting in progress right now and I have to ask help from perso, for getting it right..

    After that me or perso can give you tips for that.

    ceilings look plain in comparison to rich floors and walls. i like the feel of the hallway though :)

  • UncleRayUncleRay Join Date: 2010-03-08 Member: 70881Members
    Yeah I definitely didn't want to over do it in this portion of the hallway. Kept it nice and clean for the ceilings. This hallway is about 90% done.
