    Here comes the new screenshot ... I work hard but I know if I took the right road?

    hehe, yeah, I had to. Thats one aspect of ns2 I'm not looking to, finding a non hacked up server.

    pipi, something seems off with that room... the red lights deffinately look awkward. I'm just not feeling it as much as your previous work.
  • PipiPipi Join Date: 2009-12-09 Member: 69550Members
    The trim along with the red lights are somewhat the theme of the room, but I might remove some .. gotta agree that when I look at it, there's a lot of them, I find the ones over the hive adequate and give an evil and dark feeling about it. I'll check that out.

    Looks a little like a Kharaa ###### bar..

    Yeah, for some reason it reminded me of the Nar Shaddaa levels from the first Jedi Knight game with the greys accented with the red lights and the slopes leading off in the distance. Good memories tho, but I agree with the posted comments. I Definitely think that for an alien start it's lacking the ominous grandeur that a hive should have to scare those marines off.

    That elevator shaft looks pretty good with the soft blue lighting, but the other two feel too dark and uniformly coloured.

    That looks <i>really</i> nice, Yoda. You've got a lot of colors going but if the warmer lighting continues down that hallway and the cooler lighting continues down the other one I think it's fine. I wouldn't change a thing. I mean, I'd add ceilings, but I know that's on the to-do list :p
  • DelphicDelphic Join Date: 2006-11-02 Member: 58262Members
    @monkey: that elevator shaft looks awesome... but yeah other shots are a bit too dark.

    @yoda: I love that section on the right in the second shot, looks like quite a sharp transition in colours but I think it'll probably work, and it looks smexy.
  • PipiPipi Join Date: 2009-12-09 Member: 69550Members
    Yoda: It looks really nice. Only thing that needs work I think is the theme. I use to make theme of places, corridors and especially rooms. Like UWE said, you don't want to make a map all the same, and have a theme for specific places in your map.

    To me, it seems that there's a little of everything and miss something that really makes you recognize the corridor (and where you are) in your map. That is gameplaywise mostly. Other than that, it really breaths NS so keep up the good work. I wouldn't go for too detailed ceiling as I think the level of detail is just perfect as it is now.

    My opinion.

    You need a hard theme sure, but I'm with pipi that's pretty much like generic square. Although, the second shot, is eye catching and I do like.

    well these pics are a transition from themes/lighting schemes... I try and use the changes to help a player learn where they are and easily navigate.
    I'll see what I can do though to carry a few things over from one room/corridor to the next without getting too repetative.

    thanks for the compliments everyone.

    looks cool, it could be an awesome elevator going down the middle of caged shaft :D
  • SirotSirot Join Date: 2006-12-03 Member: 58851Members
    @Yoda: In the first picture, the first step on the stair case is way too tall. It does not look like it would be comfortable walking up it.
  • evasivemonkeyevasivemonkey Join Date: 2010-02-13 Member: 70555Members
    Thanks for the feedback guys, the elevator shaft was my favorite one too :)
    From now on ill add more light to my rooms, i can see what you mean by it being too dark i guess i was thinking more horror style then practical, hope to show you guys more screens soonishh

    just installed the editor, indeed; it's awesome.

    an hour of work, messing with: props, lighting, general usage, and other random things.

    test map:

    That looks like the bat-cave, which isn't a bad thing.

    @Polycarbon: great lighting and i like how its set out cant wait to see it finished
    @Pipi: your screens are always amazing and so professional, keep em coming :D

    1 hour 27 minutes of design (total).
    nothing much to say, other than: love the editor, sans crack or flaw.

    Obviously it's a Lerk cave, Lerkman would be proud (screenshot looks good as well!)
