Well I dusted off my JK cd to celebrate the new JK:Arena project, and for kicks I went on my ancient computer and pulled off Jed and my now obsolete projects. I opened my most treasured project, Hydrometry, in Jed. My fingers somehow knew what to do. I pressed shifts and numbers and pluses and minuses... all without ever really remembering how to do anything. But anyway, I touched the level up a bit, and although it's not the most visually pleasing by today's standards, it's a lot of fun to play, and I think the design and gameplay are pretty cool. So I decided to take some shots and put them on the showcase forum like nude whores selling their wares on the street for you to gawk at and make rude comments at.

Pretty impressive. It's good to see old school sights.

And the waaaay of the JED will never leave us.

I know what you mean. I dusted off JED a couple of weeks back, and everything was in here *taps skull* all the time. Of course, some parts was clouded, but I still had the "JED twist" left in my fingers.

He has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries."
-Robert Jastrow

Looks fun! It's too bad I sucked with JED in the first place, but I've considered reading tutorials and giving it another go. I always regretted not finishing anything.

Anyway, the level looks interesting. I'd like to play it one day.

Thanks everybody. And I couldn't let this shot be forgotten (can't forget Slug's fishies):

Looks like a great level.

In the second shot you posted, there's actually a quite obvious texture misalignment along the catwalk above.

Jed is like riding a bike. Its hard to learn but once you get it you dont forget it.

hello.
go to www.nigelsjkprojects.uni.cc

I SEE A DFLT!!!!!

But seriously, it looks pretty good. my only complaint would be the textures. There are far better options out there than the old LEC mats, but thats just my opinion

------------------
Americans call it "Tuna Fish". Canadians call it "Tuna". We just assume that it's a fish.

you know, you NEED to have it be visible to call that..

I would disagree, when the LEC mats are used well, they look great. And Archimedes has certainly used them well.

Yeah, i agree. i use LEC mats all the time. it's hard to come across really good custom mats if you don't know where to look for them, and it's not easy to make your own mats if you don't have the right programs. sometimes the LEC mats are better than manny customs. in fat sometimes some custom mats are the same as the LEC mats except for maybe one little pixel and a name change. it's silly.

Nice level btw! looks so much better than anything i could ever do.

Floor textures in the very first shot need to be different. Other than that, good work, looks like its very close to being done.

Looks awesome.

When I dusted off Jed to make my JKArena level, I had some trouble remembering the texturing keys, but I was quickly able to get back into the flow.

I agree: the textures ARE used well, but i just don't like the LEC textures

(and the DFLT thing was just a joke )
