here's my latest WIP which is a small underground barracks facilty (for JA) storing all sorts of weapons for the imperial army. There's a few secret areas and some light bump-mapping on the yellow panelling which you don't really notice but its there. There's pretty much all round yellow light and no ambient lighting at all. There's an elavator shaft leading down the the corridor in pic 3 and pic 3 leads onto pic 4 and 5. I was going to release it today but i'm not sure if its at its best so I want some feedback and why not use thses lovely forums! (and there's custom music!)
Any suggestions of new rooms i could add or perhaps small details in the existing rooms would be appreciated! :wink:








(yes...this is pretty much the same WIP post on pcgamemods.com and sentinent studios...)

Damnit, that's good

I like the wide-open spaces for combat. Keep that in mind.

Coool

i got some suggestions for a crane to pick up crates from the other forum...and maybe a loading area. I'm thinking about making those blast doors at the end open with a switch and you'll be able to look outside at a snowy sorta hilly place at night. It's been an idea in my head for a while... I'm not sure where i should put the crane idea or docking bay but i assume near the main hanger place...
In the second screenshot i noticed just when taking it that there's a pretty much bear wall...anyone got ideas to fill that up...but not stupidly

halfway up that wall you could run a conveyor belt which follows the wall, with support beams under it, and on it the player can see boxes moving in to one or more direction.

Oh and great shots!

good work

also... thank you thank you thank you for deviating from the trend of standard white lighting!

!! Awesome!
Just out of curiosity, though, are those all JA textures?

Told you that yellow looked better. On a sidenote: Where did my fog go? It looked so cool...

EDIT: Oh, and in barracks4.jpg, use a different texture for the upper trim.. This one doesn't look right.

Nice! Wish I could do that...
*starts up QuArK, can't find textures*
*starts up Radiant, crashes after 10 boxes*
*starts up Jed, runs into limits*

We have a solution for that.

Good enough to lick!

elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

i took the fog out cos it seemed to clash with the lighting...cos there'd be loads of random lights and it just didn't looks nice in my opinion. Thanks gothix and others for feedback...pity the constructive comments were lacking

The grating on the ramp just doesn't look right. Wouldn't serve any purposes that I can imagine, and trust me; I've been on a whole lot of ramps.

It looks fine to me, but it may look better if he used a grate texture with a more square design. And they do serve purposes outside of gameplay (shooting through grates is cool), like taking a leak through it and not obstructing vision.

ahh...the grating is FINE...you just need to see it in-game...anyone heard of design??? it looks tons better with grating and i dont use grating textures simply because they look too bad. Gratings should be 3d unless framerate is an issue in my opinion...

Those shots remind me far more of Aliens vs. Predator than Star Wars (and btw, in your level's case, that equals a very, very good thing!)

A little defensive... aren't we?

I simply say that the grating doesn't fit because a grate on a ramp is just a grate on a rap. Sure it looks good, but to me it simply looks out of place. A perfectly solid structure with a grating over it just looks odd. Were the ramps a bit thinner it'd feel more natural, but right now it stands out, to me.

yeh soz... i'm not sure...the grating looks ok when looked at in-game...it's just design really...

If i take it out it doesn't quite look right though... Possibly this'll be released in a month or so. I've just added junior lighting and a little bit of extra detail. I'm trying to find a texture to put on the skirting in screenshot two was it?

Very well done, but it doesn't seem very Imperial -- it would fit better in the movie Alien or some other scifi, methinks.

Wow. That is beautiful. I haven't seen a JA screenshot or even touched the game in a while.
