"Ogres floating in outerspace is a good thing".
-Martha Stewart A few more shadows would help with the textures in some areas (too evenly lit).Lot a good ideas though. And I couldn't use r_oldwater 0 in my autoexec.cfg, the game would crash. Could not reproduce a crash. Did remove the fish.mdl from the pak file redundant in the Quoth pak0. I agree lighting does look a bit flat in some spots. Will work on that.
Found the problem. I resized nost.tga to 512 x 336 and titan.tga to 1024 x 1024 and all's well. It wasn't an oldwater issue at all, though it crashed more often using it.
Yeah.
The above shot is the entrance to the second indoor part. http://spawnhost.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/e1m1rq_outside.jpg In this shot, the bridge and the lift are to the right (the lift room is behind another of these arches). Crossing the bridge was turned into a mini-objective (without being called such) where you have to press a button to extend the bridge. Otherwise the route is the same. There is a second entrance to the nailgun area now (to the right behind the helipad) leading through some new areas. The base got more of an outside, but the route was changed very little. Preach's "Beatles" comparison is apt; if Quake is "Abbey Road", RemakeQuake is a tribute album. It's not the same, because the original is untoppable. So why not have some fun. And I ripped from ETQW, Crysis and even Doom3 here quite liberally, besides Half-Life. To me they're all Quake's children.
Pretty epic looking map! I loved all the intricate details - the grunts floating off in to space when the walkway blows up, sleeping dude and the quake jukebox, the ogre body, etc.
Things I would suggest: - in the blue room with the slipgate, it looked like I should have been able to pick up the power cube - I thought I was supposed to be collecting those? - the air ducts were confusing for me; I appreciated some navigation aids like ambient sounds, the odd voreling, but I still was not sure if I found the right exit and was getting tired of running around - overall I felt a bit lost, like too much of the map was opened up right at the start. - it would benefit from more monsters, I think, or at least having the current monster encounter spots be more of a fight. I can appreciate wanting to have a map that's mostly about exploring, but it left me craving more action :-) Here is a demo of my first attempt: http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/demos/Titanbeta1_demo_ericw.7z Thanks for the Demo
set skill 0. That's were the monsters are. Gameplay should be easy. I might but some arrows in the duct work for easy skill only. The cubes get placed by the teleport. You missed cube 2 and 3 Will setup more in game info about need to power the teleport. At the end of the demo the sign did say DANGER :) ..why so few people actually post screenshots ?
This should be a screenshots section instead I see mostly endless flows of words. heydan the community still active and small as have been in the last few years, we just don't need to post a screenshot on every room we make... it spoils all the surprise in the release...
There are some maps in construction, Quake is no more a game of young teenagers that don't have nothing to do, almost all of us have jobs and kids to take care... things come more slowly :) But we still alive and kicking... : ) Not sure about those ceiling lights in the corners. Something feels off about them, but I can't grasp why.
dawn necros, u were made to map :\
I will never produce nothing like you even if I map for more 30 years :| talent born with people... I don't I've even close to yours... i haven't touched it in a month, neg :P
as for floors, probably, yeah. this is more experimentation with CnP building so no floor details yet, but i remember what you said before. :)
