Hmm 
Testing some inset floor lighting... y'know, watching interior design from time to time isn't such a bad idea.

Phait 
don't tease with such graphics or i'll spontaneously combust before I can ever play that!? 
Nice, 
I like those two wall textures imposed together like that.

you put your finger on something to think about; what do the real architects, interior designers, and landscapers have to teach us brush pushers. 
Headthump 
no, it's the other way around, brusherpush have to teach THEM! Some awful floor tex.. i mean tiling decisions i saw the other day in the new massive bus terminal. And they are more expensive than bad maps! 
Well, Lets Not Get Carried Away 
the standard between real world architecture and virtual is miles apart. Even the facade of my local supermarket (I'm actually tempted to film it so you can see) could rival something as praise worthy as CZG's entrance way to the Sacred Trinity map in design.

Architects have the advantage of dealing with a world that is analog down to the Quantum level. 
CZG Map

Where might I see/play that? Don't see it on his site. 
Oh My! 
Phait I love what you've done there, you've really created a sense of space! It's like a whole new room! Three words for you: FAB YOU LOUS 
Phait 
It's one of his maps in Nehahra (neh2m2). 
Ahh 
Never played it.

*cowers* 
Sacred Trinity 
To Quote Stewie 
Now THAT's the good stuff, yeahhh. 
That's 
shit 
Yeah 
Now that's a 1337 supermarket 
Uhm, 
just a few houses down from Orson Scott Card's house, actually. 
Though, I'm Not Saying 
the facade is an extraordinary piece of work. The standards for level design and physical art are different to a degree where sophisticated technique goes unnoticed when seen on a day to day basis in the world around us, but you defininately note a set piece when it is placed in a level.

As for architectural technique, some things that they commononly do to arrange geometry I have only seen in a few realism oriented games.

With the facade, there are two stores in the shop. The Supermarket and a Ballet Studio. The supermarket which owns the parcel takes up about four fifths of the front, but by a visual trick, it is seen as centered.

The column and arches on the Supermarket side are half the width of the columns on the Ballet Studio side, so visually they even out, and the store front doesn't look ajared. 
I Should Have Something To Contribute To This... 
having a couple of years of University Architectural studies behind me but I just can't be arsed right now. 
More WIP From Scrotch 
HOOOOOOOO AH!!! 
nitin - Nice shit! I would love to see that as a D3SP! Hurry and add them crouching door imps!!! 
Zwiffle 
it migh be a while. Scortch mentioned this over at q3w :

"its built into the side of a large mountain/cliff. Im trying to make the terrain in maya, but Im not too famliar with the program so it may take a lil bit to get the hang of things before I can add that in to the map." 
It's... 
a bit too monotone. 
Scrotchage 
Looks good, but those curved buttresses look a little odd to me. 
Fuck Yeah 
Looks really cool, nice to see a possible D3SP that isn't relying too much on D3's fancy gfx and actually has some DESIGN in it.

I reckon those walkways and shit could have good gameplay potential too. 
Huh 
Yeah, that's it. Monotone.


....


Not quite as asstastic as your work, I'll give you that. 
Why Do You Need To Be A Dick? 
I was merely giving my opinion. Those shots are rather generally green in hue and I find that boring.

Oh wait, I've offended or don't agree with The Great Mr. Fribbles.

Christ. I hate you elitist fuckheads. 
Fribbles 
Don't be a dick.
