<div class="IPBDescription">(temporary name)</div> here is a few screenshots of my combat map (some areas are not complete)

first screenshot of hive : Back wall of infestation is temporary untill i attach the corridor that is meant to go there.

I will add more infestation later.

second pic : hallway leading to hive (i will fix the texture alignment on the pipes)

Olmy · February 2004

third pic : another angle of the hive

Olmy · February 2004

I will add more updated screenshots later including pictures of the rest of the map. for now tell me what you think of the aesthetics.

VERY nice texture/lighting work. It does look a little narrow though, and that means easy targets for the rines. :/

Olmy · February 2004

Actually i was worried about the halls in the pics being TOO wide. Depending on what picture you mean, but the pictures of the hive are a little deceptive scale wise, its quite wide open.

<span style='color:gray'>O</span>nly problem I have is that you could use some more infested textures in the hive room, it doesn't really look <i>infested</i>. and maybe add some growth on the walls and stuff.

Olmy · February 2004

I said in the first post i am going to add more infestation <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />, but yes i will be putting vines and things on the walls.

Looks very good, only problem I see is that the ceilnig in the 2nd picture is extremely flat and boring. Break it up with some detail.

Olmy · February 2004

Will do. Was considering that myself. Honest.

nightdragon · February 2004

That lighting on those pipes look awesome! The ceiling on the second screen looks a bit empty, needs some filling up. Other than that great job.

Olmy · February 2004

Thanks for the comments. I'll be getting more pics up tonight i think. (i'm not happy with the ms yet)

MeanMrMustard · February 2004

The hive looks lovely <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />
The corridors look nice and spacious, ut like tequila said, the room looks a tad boring and dominates the pic.

Olmy · February 2004

Umm can anyone tell me where that vine texture is (you see it in eclipse command hive) . Y'know the one, it hangs from the cieling <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /> .

Exactly, those pipes look good, lighting is good also.

I'd suggest to you: use those pipes as a 'theme' apply them throughout your map.
So it would really look as if they're important or something, steam coming out would look neat too.

Jezpuh · February 2004

That's some very good lightning you got there.

Olmy · February 2004

Archon thats a plan if ive ever heard one. And a good one at that, also not too hard to implement... i think.

Coblet · February 2004

Very nice, the ceiling in pic 2 is the only fault I can point out so far.

Olmy · February 2004

Currently i am implementing the piping in the hive in the hallway shown on picture 2. I'll see how it turns out.

Olmy · February 2004

Here it is.

Cheese · February 2004

nnnnnnnnnice!!!

GhostlyPea · February 2004

*drools*

i think some steam from the pipes would be cool, plus the obvious infestation.

other than that its good

Olmy · February 2004

that corridor has one room seperating it from the hive so i don't think i will add any there <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

i'll try to add steam, although i'm not much good at the particle system.

nightdragon · February 2004

Dude these looks truley awesome, you've really got this pipe making thing licked...

Keep it up and we have us a winnar!

Sorted. Respect due.

Thaldarin · February 2004

Its very nice, but I see no variance. All there is are generic and repeated wall patterns with repeated pipe lines. The only thing that looks different from the rest of the map is the hive. Look at eclipse and veil, they use the same textures through out, but the areas look mainly different. We need some more of that kind of variance in there. Not knocking you, just trying to make you think, get some even better areas and quality squeezed out for this map.

Olmy · February 2004

There are different areas, i was just focusing on the hive vicinity which does have a set theme and which i think is my best work so far.

[edit] you can't judge the map when you can only see the hive and one corridor.

Bogglesteinsky · February 2004

You could call it co_pipe if you were looking for a name. It kinda appears to be a running theme in the map...

Olmy · February 2004

there is alot of pipes in my map. that name sucks though lol. jk

[besides] what kind of facility would it be without a rediculous array of pipes leading everywhere?

Legionnaired · February 2004

Incredible lighting. Absolutely incredible.
