Trinca: If it doesn't include DBSing through hundreds of hell knights, sent it over.
Willem: Who would convert a barn into a bus terminal?! A road diner would make more sense. I agree it needs more chaos - toppled tables and chairs, menus and napkins on the ground etc. The graffiti seems out of place, the toilet a little too worn down.

Work in progress! :) The place will be zombified, no worries.
 One Other Thing

the outside roof design looks strange in the 2nd shot. Not quite sure why but it looks out of place for the setting you describe.

 L4D2

Working on getting a feel for L4D2 levels and how buildings should be structured. First attempt:

Looking good so far, quite believable structures. Looking forward to whatever you come up with.
#6701 posted by Vigil on 2010/06/13 16:04:56
Amazingly enough, I could see orange as a very believable choice for a strong jazz club. Structure's looking good too, though I imagine the top level could use a few more windows (or skylights).

That looks like a really solid building. Wish I bothered to spend time playing around with cool shapes like that. Good show old chap.
 Some Progress

 Good Effort!

First thing I wondered was, why the pillar stands so close to the wall, as for carrying weight it should have some distance.
But that's just seeking needles in a haystack.
Most of all that gun in the second pix reminded me of my frustration in the original game (/) I could only use it once.
Tiles versus rock very good done. Keep it up!

re 6699: i thought that was the actual texture for the jazz club until i looked closer and noticed they were dev textures. :P like vigil said, it actually wouldn't be a bad colour to go with. you know, faded and busted up a bit, but still. :)
re 6703: been looking forward to this map for a while now. bricks and tile detail is good, lighting is maybe a little flat from sunlight, but there are some nice shadows and contrast now.

cool shapes.
jpl, why last map? 2nd pic looks nice.
 Last = Latest

That looks great, JPL.

that's a Malice gun, isn't it?
 Quoth...
#6710 posted by generic on 2010/06/18 19:22:49
Plasma gun ;)
 Did Quoth Invent The Plasmagun?
#6711 posted by madfox on 2010/06/20 23:56:22
I thought I saw it somewhere before that release.
(explaining my wondering I lost it after the cells were gone)
#6712 posted by necros on 2010/06/21 05:09:39
the quoth model and sounds are original. of course, there have been dozens of 'plasma rifles' going back to doom's rapid-fire gun which i'm sure everyone is familiar with.
the gun is supposed to be similar to quake3's plasma rifle what with it's rapid fire, medium damage and small explosion radius but more in-line visually and audibly with the 'phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range' from the original Terminator.
 Shots.

Willem I like that building outside, the curves look good, need to see more of that style, i.e. cool structures rather than just relying on textures/details.
JPL, looks good, Madfox has a good point tho...
 8 Bit Demo
#6714 posted by qbism on 2010/06/22 06:09:08
Not a map, but a way to demo maps online.

Will go out of my way for a rotfish, now, something about the sound.
 Whoah...
#6715 posted by metlslime on 2010/06/22 06:20:54
pretty cool... and you have transparent water too!
Is this a package that's easy to put together (given map x and demo y?)
Is there a way to set a smaller resolution (so you could embed it in a webpage the way youtube videos can be, rather than fullscreen?
 Geez
#6716 posted by necros on 2010/06/22 06:31:22
you wouldn't even have to download demos anymore, you could just watch them right in a release thread o.o
 FlashDevelop
#6717 posted by qbism on 2010/06/22 07:12:29
It's not too hard, especially after setting it up the first time.
A wad is made with the map, demo, and data.
An IDE called FlashDevelop combines this with the engine, which has been precompiled to Flash.
The view window can be any size and imbedded in a web page.
The engine is an enhanced WinQuake based on the Makaqu engine and ported to Flash. Can play some big maps but not quite up to Marcher yet.
