On The Run
2004-05-14, 4:24 AM #1
A few weeks ago, I started working on Singleplayer project for Jedi Knight that has since grown into a multi-level series. Basically, you play the part of a mercenary who is taking some time off in an underworld cantina on a planet not unlike Nar Shaddaa. Unfortunately, you spilt a jug of lum on the wrong hardened criminal, and before you know it, every gang in the underworld is out to get your hide. You have to escape to your ship, housed on a landing pad miles above on the highest levels of the city.

These are screenshots from the first level, which should hopefully be released within the next couple of weeks:

One of the many alleyways in the underworld:

Another shot of the same alley, from a different perpective:

An underworld hallway:

One of the many bottomless shafts that pierces through the heart of the underworld. Conveyor belts are also quite numerous in the industrial sections of the city:

Another shot of the same area from a different perspective:

Another one of the shafts:

Same shaft, different perspective:

An exterior platform on the edge of one of the cities artificial canyons:

I'm still working on the lighting, some of the areas are a bit darker than I'd like them to be. Comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

JK SP + multilevel = Great.

The architecture isn't special, but who cares? It looks good. Even though I've started to dislike JK's textures, it still looks good and I'm waiting to see this released...

Nice.

I just love that effect you've created with the pipes on the ceilling in the third shot.

The music industry is a cruel and shallow money trench where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

I'll also probably need some beta testers once I get a working version of the level complete. So if you're interested, let me know. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Beta server?

Looks awesome. Dark and moody, good texturing eventhough it's the same old Nar Shadda set.

Hmm I suddenly got a tremendous idea for a sp level, to bad I don't edit anymore [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

Lookin' good. 3rd shot looks like a box and is mostly plain, from what I see. But I agree, those pipes are awesome.

Keep up the good work.

btw, you gonna use your conveyor cog in there? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
