Nice... I especially want you to focus on that subway level... good start there. BTW, in the level with the reflective floor... make the 'mirror' sectors darker, enough so that you'd just barely see the ceiling, if at all. Trust me, it will look far more realistic... when was the last time you looked at a heavily glossed floor, and was able to see the ceiling? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] The adjoining texture will appear less translucent the darker you make those sectors. Have fun.

BTW- You got my email, right? Enjoyed yer mission trip?

only had time to see the hanger which looks damn good with the reflection, but a few opinions:

The reflecting sectors need to be MUCH darker.
Dont use LEC textures. Make new ones.

then it would pwn
Code:
if(getThingFlags(source) & 0x8){
  do her}
elseif(getThingFlags(source) & 0x4){
  do other babe}
else{
  do a dude}

Thanks Ruthy, I agree with what you and halucid said - darker = win. In the meantime though, I'll work on my projects and you can work on the project. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Yeah, most of those are abandoned projects, I had so many ideas, I just had other things to be doing, plus I lack the motivation. Current;y I have to plow through Les Miserbales and I'm only on page 30. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif]

And yes, halucid, there's no way I'm forgetting about Somnolence. That is my most precious creation to date, and I intend on releasing it. I'll post some pics on the thread later with my progress, though not much of it is very noticable. I believe I got the email you're referring to. Thanks very much for all the good suggestions, I've put many of them to use. If you're referring to a second email, I'm afraid I haven't gotten it. I need some ideas for the spectator arena though, I've just lost my creative streak for the moment.

Again, thanks for the comments guys. I guess it's not that funny, it was just something silly I cooked up for a light chuckle.

[Edit: Yes, I had a great mission trip Halucid, check my main page if you haven't already for a few details, or Email me if you're interested further.]

Is that jedi knight or MOTS? I wasn't sure you could even do reflections like that in JK.

You can do it in both. It's not what it seems though. If you want to know the trick, send an email my way. I don't want to let the secret out here.

It's no secret. Just copy/paste the sector, it's lights, and 3DOs and then flip it all, adjoin the floor, but make it unpassable, then bring all the lights down by an equal number. Usually you can redo some detail to be less detailed, and depending on how tall the area it, you can delete most of the upper areas of the second copied sector.
