Imperial mines, the remake.
2003-09-05, 2:57 AM #1
I'm currently remaking my imperial mines levels. Adding more areas, for example, this time you start outside the mine instead starting inside the mine already. I'm making custom scripts, sounds and cutscenes. Here's few shots what I have done:
This one is from the mine part where imperials have storages and small control centers:

Looks pretty good but it desperately needs better lighting.

I was going to add some spotlights near the shuttle, but in which parts I should improve the lightning? Should I increase it or decrease it?

Hmm.. I'd say increase; but my main problem with the lighting was merely the lights on what looks as an entrance in shot nr 3. Oh, and your rocky walls don't look rocky. Try to make them less flat (vertex editing, i.e.)

yes, the walls aren't rocky enough and I'm going to improve it. It's going to be something like the rock near the slime. And behind the shuttle, the rock is made rocky.

Very nice on the slime area overall. So is this just a remake of the first two (three?) or are you adding more as you go along?

omq. You're orange saber produces blue glow?? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/confused.gif] And as with the others, better lighting, no lightspots. Imperial bases (I assume this is one) usually are lit that way, there are only minor dark places.

The saber thingie is a real problem... I want an orange saber, but this saber is done by just renaming all the blue saber files in the gfx folder as orange... The another way to do it works,(the way AK piggot told at lucasforums)But it has this side effect that takes my music out after 2 seconds and plays the menu music instead. AND if I die, and haven't saved and respawn, the saber is then blue... I'd like to know what files give the blue color to the saber and blue slashing effect... And for the lightning, it's still under development, and if you would look at the kejim_post map, there's NO lights at the hallways of kejim... They used somekind lightning that is putted in the worldspawn...

Worldspawn lighting? Nope. They just didn't use shaders with it. And for the problem of a colorchange afterdeath, just make the player spawn in a checkpoint.

Nice architecture, though a little plain in some places, but dogibbles, some of those textures look wrong/out of place.. especially the last shot. Oh, and WHY is the officer's room Bespin-themed? It doesn't quite fit with the rest of your level.... Also, do the stormies wake up/stand up when you start fighting? And now tell me what those two... thingies in the last shot are (back of the room) [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Besbin theme is becaus eI lked to put it like... well... More elegant than the rooms of the other officers, and much better looking than the rooms of stormies. Just realized that the pillows are too big. I'd put blankets at officer quarters, but i don't think that stormies need them... Maybe. The textures over the doors at the last shot are out of place, until I find some better ones. I also just made a decicion this level will be guns only, and you can go stealthy or jus blast yor way trough enemies(which will be hard...)

It's the Special Edition!

"I couldn't achieve in my level series, Imperial Mines, what I really wanted to. I didn't know my way around Radiant enough. But now, with Jedi Academy releasing soon and my knowledge of Radiant better, I can finally get what I wanted to!"

Or something of that nature parodying the interview with George Lucas about the Special Editions of the trilogy...

I think the crystals give off too much light near the elevator shaft.

Hmm... If I remember right, I made that script to you... Though it didn't work fully... I'm going to add kitchen, and eating room too, and maybe somekind of small cantina. I also add officer quarters, which will be better places than stormie quarters.

I am glad you are doing a remake. The maps you made were okay, but they weren't natural/logical. Your new stuff looks a lot better.

Thanks for your comments. I myself firstly planned doing the fourth part, but then I realized how poorly done my levels were done... So it's like special edition, just like hard_driver said. The remake consist MUCH more areas, MUCH more longer levels, puzzles, cutscenes and etc. Thanks Xisor, bu tI had just day ago decided that I'll make this level as guns only... The guns only is because I want to make it so that you can go stealthy... with saber it's too easy to blast your way trough.
