[Another] Whipped up W.I.P.
2004-07-14, 9:58 AM #41
Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the comments, I'm just wondering if that last pic looks a bit bare and if it might need some more stuff added to it. I'm interested in everyone's opinion. Thanks.

The Hallway looks excellent. However my only suggestion would be do work on the supports with lights.

They are too small, and or far apart. You could make them wider and deeper. Then, after that add more seperation between the textures. They clash too much. Ot have the wall texture line up with the support texture.

I'm sorry, but could you rephrase that? What exactly do you mean by the "supports"? Are you talking about the stairs, because that's the only thing in that last pic with lights. Or are you talking about the walkways the spectators go up? Sorry about that, I'm just not certain of what you're saying. Please explain though, because I'm interested by what you're suggesting.

He's referring to the second to last picture with the water in the hallway. The support beams that have the lights on them.

OH CRAP! I just remembered I'm going to be gone for a month [http://forums.massassi.net/html/mad.gif] (not a bad thing -- just a tad inconvenient)
Agh... at least I'll still (hopefully) be able to work on my jk stuff

But still, chances are I'm going to miss this when it's released, I'll miss Stargate...
Well, that's life. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I look forward to the release (after I get back -- leaving tomorrow)

Wow, that is quite cool!

I especially love that curvy hallway. That's the kind of architecture I always wished I could do. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Actually Flexor, plugins helped me construct those hallways - there's no way I was doing that all by hand, it took me long enough as it was with the lights and all the adjoining I had to do. Get Bent is your friend. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Anyway, update and conclusion: I've more or less 100% finished. Now I just have to Beta test and tweak the remainders of the level.

Here's are two shots of the final room I did (it's the room where the host selects the weapons he's going to choose):

Anyway, I know of several things my level still needs, but I'll leave it up to beta testers to determine all that and more. Anyone want to Beta test? Please, post here and I'll get back to you. Thanks! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Beautiful. I love the technique you used to made the archi in the last 2 shots. It simple, but creates some truly breathe-taking results. I used the same method in the main hall in my last level... but yers is much nicer. I do look forward to this map, and many more from you... breathing life back into one of the greatest games ever made.

Thankyou very, very much Halucid, but would you or anyone else like to Beta test?

BTW, I followed your advice, Halucid, and used sector tinting throughout my level. I also have dynamic lighting, but no coronas I'm afraid.

Right guys, maybe we could all have a game together, maybe you could host halucid since Whelly and I both have a satellite connection which lags around 1,000+ ping [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I'm afraid I don't have AIM or IM, but I've sent an Email to both of you.

Halucid has agreed to host a game at 8:00 p.m. EST Since we're all in the same time zone, that works out great. Now Whelly and I just need your IP address, halucid.

Thanks for your support everyone. I just wanted to say, I'm going on a Mission Trip tomorrow, so I won't be doing anything else with the level now for about a week. Hopefully, the mission trip will go well, if you'd like a bit more info, check out my homepage at http://www.freewebs.com/vaderscorner/home.html

Well, I look forward to continuing (and hopefully finishing) this undertaking upon my return. Wish me luck!
