i like it, but the comm chair area looks a bit crampt, mebe making it slightly higher. And in the first pic mebe u cud make the red lights in the strip cast light.

Also are u using tex lights or just light ents??

Looks a bit dark overall. Try setting your env_gamma to a higher value. The second screenshot is the best. The first is a bit boring imo. So once again, try playing with your env_gamma <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Looks good <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I really like the use of textures you have, amybe some more architextural details, since you don´t have that high r_speeds in some areas and it will be great ^^

samejima

ent lights so far
theres a picture for you jez with higher gama tell me what you think

Kester

try using tex lights instead where u can, it will make the lighting seem more real (once u have the hang of using them)

samejima

played aroudn with gamma and texture lighting and this is what i got

good looking, but a bit open
maybe add some crates or somthing

IM me or PM me or whatever if you need another tester. And it's looking good!

I really love dark levels, so this grabs me straight away. I particularly like this recent shot of the industrial gritty looking corridor, it reminds me of old skool ns <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It would be cool to put loads of hidden vents and access tunnels around the level too. You could put a vent or tunnel in, which has lights far apart from each other, so you'd go through a dark bit, and then get to a light bit, and then go through a dark bit again, if you get my drift.

Anyway, you got a layout or anything we can see?

Kester

i really like those new shots, good contrast in the colors

samejima

yes i have a lay out but im quite lazy ill get it done before class and post it tonight on the other hand the vent system im have few vents personaly my style of mapping in my oppion every thing must have a purpose or be semi realistic like a vent going around the corrner for beter ambushing is dumb beacause they wouldent do that in real life i am adding vents but not a bunch i dont want a nancy system going on thanks guys for the compliments im gonna keep working on it

Olmy

From running around in an early version of this map, i can say it's looking really promising.

Starchy

Very nice screenshots, nice and dark!

Jezpuh

It has really improved from the first shots. Keep it up! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

i LOVE it, it's a really good darkish, evil, nasty, SCARY environment, just what ns needs, i'm a bit worried about the space though, i don't think onos will easily fit through most of those corridors =)

samejima

the onos fits through everything with out crouhcing some areas he cant jump very high but what does a onos need to jump for like when he jumps its basicly like taping crouch (fallowing statment only protains to the areas includeing cuved doorways)

Olmy

It's a bit premature judging onos movement space from screenshots alone <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->.

still working on it some comments please ( crystal is smaller now )

stylee

samejima plays the skinflute a bit too much. I've ran through the early parts of this map, was pretty good. Whoever said he needs more architectural detail needs to smarten up :/

stylee

And here's a picture of his <i>marine-god-damned-spawn</i> with the gamma jacked so you can see it's not <b>that</b> small.
