I'm going to be controversial here and suggest that the lighting is predominantly green because it's an outdoor scene and the colour of the ambient outside lighting is, well, green.

I Think It Also Depends

on your monitor. I just checked on my Mac and while it's still green, I see other hues in it. Whereas on my PC's LCD, it seemed like everything was green.

#2378 posted by Zwiffle on 2005/07/24 08:45:38

I don't mind the green in the shots, for a few reasons.

1.) It's better than black, which has been overused in Doom3 as of today imo. :D
2.) It's still alien and claustrophobic, so while it sets a completely different vibe it still retains an alien feel.
3.) It's better than some bright neon purple-pink like some faggy Quake 3 levels.

I won't say it's original lighting, but it's good imo.

Go Frib Go!

Huh...

...this is sooooooo obviously a Q4 level I don't know why skrotch is even considering wasting it on D3.

Hmm. #2360.

good to see sacred trinity again. i still remember walking around the corner the first time and seeing that front shot aguire posted. =)

possibly one of the best Q1SP maps ever made!

one day...i might just do a review of nehahra, just for the record. would be a lot of work though of course...[just ask shambler].

Just make sure you use an updated engine when playing Nehahra to get rid of tech problems.

Would There

#2383 posted by aguirRe on 2005/07/25 10:56:59

be an interest in me uploading a couple of more Nehahra shots?

Absolutely

#2384 posted by HeadThump on 2005/07/25 13:02:17

I need to download the packs for Nehahra again anyhow.

#2385 posted by aguirRe on 2005/07/25 14:35:37

Heh

Yay for pimping Nehahra aguirRe ;D your shots look a tad bright on my machine though.
By the way, your nehahra engine is pretty nice (and I never said this before, but your compilers rock, thanks).

Thanks

#2387 posted by aguirRe on 2005/07/25 17:35:06

Yes, I noticed myself that the shots are a bit bright. They are from late 2004 and I think they got the standard gamma correction I usually make on shots. I believe it's better to see everything clearly in shots.

Especially neh2m3 suffers from the brightening and some terrible fog banding, possibly worsened by jpg distortion.

It looks better in-game where you can adjust gamma to your liking.

I Guess

#2388 posted by HeadThump on 2005/07/25 20:01:40

it is safe to infer from this

(and I never said this before, but your compilers rock, thanks).

that Bal is mapping again.

Another Nehahra Shot

where to get this level?

Finally found a working FP link to Invein at RetroQuake: http://dynamic.gamespy.com/%7Eretroquake/blog/?p=101

The map was featured on PlanetQuake: http://www.planetquake.com/quake1/features/lotw/sp-01-08-27.shtml

and reviewed at TeamShambler: http://www.planetquake.com/teamshambler/rev010724.html

The last two sites' d/l link doesn't work though.

I Forgot

#2393 posted by aguirRe on 2005/07/26 07:15:03

to add that Invein is one of those Q1 maps where you might want to disable idgamma, as the textures are bright and a lot of the patterns get saturated and lost.

#2394 posted by Vondur on 2005/07/26 07:21:38

thanks, bengt!

I'm Thinking..

That this is about the level of detail I should stop at, else I tend to get carried away.

Looks interesting, although quite confined. Not a bad thing in small amounts though. I really dig the texture set, best industrial one I've seen.

How Close Are To Completion

#2399 posted by HeadThump on 2005/07/26 22:10:53

Phait?

Also, what is that weapon removal console command again? I'll put a few shots of what I'm working on.
