Grtahf 
Go white girl go! 
Grahf. 
You win. 
 
Thanks guys. Any critiques? like, is that grey wood plank texture overused as trim? 
Grafh & Method 
Looking sweet, guys.

Grahf: Really cool, strong and original theme there, I dig the textures and your heavy structures. Lots of supports, pillars and girders, very nice. Maybe the lights and monsters are enough to bring some splotches of colors, making them stand out even more. Fits right into Quake.

Method: Foreboding, forgotten, isolated, old, decayed. Hope you'll be releasing that texture set? Would fit right into HL2, too, I feel. It's got a good vibe to it, like something out of the dark, old alleys of an old European city. 
 
zommgmggggg Grahf welcome back ;)

look real good the map :) can�t wait to put my hands on it... 
Grahf 
Looks like something out of Thief: The Dark Project.

Especially the lit windows. 
Grahf 
looks great, I like that texture combination.

Method, that's very nice. Looks quite City of Lost Children-ish, which is a good thing. 
I've Got A Long Way To Go 
I should comment on method's screenies. I seriously thought it was a max/maya rendering, before he said it was D3. That level of mapping is so far beyond anything I could attempt. 
Grahf 
Thanks Grahf :) I'm planning on making a SP level in the future. Currently thinking of cool ideas for it and geometry.

Grahf 
That looks very solid - nice to know you're using Nehahra as well, it remains one of the greats.

You're going ahead with a full SP or you have grander plans?

Both good. 
Orl 
You got mail 
Whoa 
Cool stuff Grahf! Looking forward to that one! 
Yeah, Nice Goodly Stuff Here, Grahf 
Those deep shadows remind me of the first Thief game as well. 
If You Want A Little Criticical Eyeballing 
those trims could use some color variation. I'd avoid using the same color on the trim as you do on the dominate tiles. That one tile with the X cross I'd recommend whipping out photoshop and making the X portion a lighter tone so it doesn't look so flat. 
Also, 
similar to advice Metl once gave me, the wooden post and the brown brick in http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/1153/grahfsp00wi6.jpg kind of fade in to one another because they are almost the same shade of brown. Lighten the wooden post tile and it should bring out its material properties better in contrast to the brick's dark bulky presence. 
You Rock, Grahf. 
Digging the medieval vibe, must see more!! 
New Small Episode For Quoth - Deja Vu - Testers? 
OK people, Ive made a six map mini episode using quoth. I have sent a copy to kell. So far I havent incorporated skyboxes (but will) and it probably needs a bit of tweaking here and there. I need some playtesting done, but dont want to host a final version online yet cause obviously its not finished. If anyone thinks theyre up for the job, then please email me and I will send you a copy, or leave your email address where I can see it on this messageboard and I will send you a copy. It uses a base theme mostly, lost of quoth demons on the later maps and kell's fury texture wad.

My address: trowbridge.richard@googlemail.com

Jolly Good! 
How About 
a couple of screenshots to pique everyones interest Ricky? 
Bones 
I'm working on some new Q1 monsters, and so far all goes well. So I tried to get grip on the Q3 bones model, and it has touched me with its grey haze. Converting it to quake1 gave me a tough job, as animating frames all had to be concealed again. Made it some tougher, because it got rather thin, and then

Qmle showed up with a strange texture convertion, as well as a lot of vertice meshes, but that aside. I had the skin part right, but somehow a part of the texture keeps mirrored. I made three models now, but they all turn up with the same error.

Anyone knows how to avoid this nasty habbit? 
ScreenShots For Y'all 
Here are some screenshots of me maps:

I have now added skyboxes (evidently from the shots), and tinkered around with the ending a bit. But I wouldnt have said this version (which I'm not hosting yet) is final, cause it seems the more things I fix, the more problems I see. Took Three hours to compile the last map last night (Aargh!!!), and Ill prob end up doing it again tonight.

Mail me if you wanna playtest the NEW beta! (new from yesterday, that is...) 
Hell, Yes... 
...Mail info is in the profile!!!

check your surface normals in whatever modelling app you started the model in (I'm assuming you didn't build all this in QME...), make sure they're all contiguous and none of them are reversed. 
Lunaran 
I've chequed all vertices. It seems to happen when I export the model to a dxf file.
I've had 14 verticemeshes in each frame, so I went all the 87 frames, untill I counted my dry bones. One perticular vertice seems to be the error.

Is there a way in Qmle to make this surface triangle get back to its origin position?
Because I can't controll the outcom of the dxf files my am2000 is transporting. 
Meh. 
I'm making a Q1 episode for speedrunning right now and designing it as fast as I can to avoid getting bogged down in details.

The obtex map is a pain in the ass. :(
