i don't believe i need to say anything else. 

awesome! 

is bad for the health. I enjoy mapping, but *my god* it's not doing my back any good. Starting to feel like a cripple...

Also staring at a screen for too long is frying my brain. Made worse that before July I was a factory labourer and guitarist - now I do admin on a computer all day, then mapping on evening. 

Heh, yeah after more than 10 years of mapping my body is a wreck. My back gives me pain, my arm/wrist are strained and my vision is crappy (although it always has been).

And still I map! 

In twenty / thirty years we'll all still be here mapping; wizened little Gollum creatures putting maps together . . . 

anyone seen this one

just get a proper chair/table
and you dont spend 8hrs/day mapping (like some people DO at work) 

Five hours stood up in a (supposedly 15 minute SCRUM) meeting listening to all the design errors you've made. And then be told you've done a great job. FFS. 

Its my crappy posture thats doing it!!!

Screenies tomorrow!! ;-)

One of the funnier dismissals of it I've seen:

http://duke.a-13.net/

I particularly like the Science and Technology section. 

is it wrong that i'm still excited about duke forever? At the least it means I must hate myself. 

the average net connection is 10 megabits nowadays...
But hey, maybe they can chalk it up to "the general population's ability of doing simple calculation in their head was lost" point which can be added to between 1997 and now.
Otherwise mostly quite fun! 

maybe more like 3 megabits or so, that's still 100 times more than the maximum possible back then! 

Did you get my last two emails? 

yes.

sorry for the slow response. I plan at looking at it tonight. 

i made a new dark ambient track:

say if it sucks or pretty good 

Would fit well with the later Nehahra levels.

Reminds me of a q2 map / concept I was messing with - 2 levels and the bottom one is filled with toxic gas (sort of volumetric fog), needing biosuits to pass through it without damage.

The pipe clanging could be a bit intrusive when exported to the Quake lower format - if you're going to use it as a sound inside the game rather than a soundtrack played from outside.

Is it for a map you're working on? 

I like it, although I miss a rithm section. At the end it is somehow oversounded.
But a nice ambience. How have you made it?

I won't do it easily, but here's something I made,
only simple guitar, base and solo.

...thankyou, just what I needed this arvo. I'm now officially a fan of your music, this one could've done with a more recognizable finish...perhaps some silent punctuations. Nonetheless, beaut!!! 

...tidy up the higher solo track and that one's a winner. Now go make a melancholy map (not base) so you can use it a ambient background :)
