Ive been doing some mapping of my own on Remnant Temple Part B. No definite due date has been set (as well it shouldnt be considering how long it took part A to come out) but I have been working hard. I managed to fix my compiling problem from 40 minutes to 5 minutes (so far its only 2 rooms/2 corridors not a whole lot) with the help of better mapping techniques and now im on a role.

These are the entering temple shots for Part b and I want the temple in a lot of areas to have that sithy/purply Mysteries of the Sith lighting. So it has to be kind of freaky but at the same time have things that give off yellow light like fire. Its been hard to do the lighting because of this. So anyway enough of my chit chat and heres what ive got so far...

edit if the screenies dont show click the links

WTF EVERYTHING IS GOING WRONG AAAAAHHHHHH.

NOTE: These are in no definite order in the level.
Im sorry if i couldnt get better shots because there are better looking areas but i didnt want to give very much away.
Comments? Suggestions? Cazors pants?
BTW Cazor i know i didnt respond to your thread but I do think it looks very nice. Keep up the good work.

I'll host them as long as this thread is active.

I like it, but I think some of the archi, like those big things in the first 2 shots, are a little overdone, and unecissary clutter.

Great job, I really like it. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

I just think the textures could be much improved in the sense that they don't tile that well. I also think it would do the level much justice if you make it a tad darker. That way, you would achive that dark and scary sithy feeling. Great job either way. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Sorry everyone. Ive been gone the last two days so I couldnt reply. And btw kirby thanks for puttin the shots up. Ill use a different host next time.

I see where some of you are saying the textures are a little repetitive and ill try to clean that up because textures are what keep hurting me on reviews.

The lighting I'm still working on because it has been a pain to get the purple dark enough with some of the textures. But still light enough so you can see the archi.

And jedikirby actually that room is quite huge. It is more of a clutter in the third shot really now that i think about it. Ill probably take out one of those columns. If you have a more intersting architectural idea for that area though i would be free to suggestions.

But thanks for all the comments everyone!

Perhaps strait beams going up, overlapping onto the top side of the platform above, and then a railing between each one of those, assuming there are more of those pillars behind the player.

woah im confused there kirby. Sorry. Its kind of hard for me to learn like that through text (probably why it to so damn long for me to learn richdiesals tuts). Maybe u could make a small little demo of what it would look like with the front and side views in MS paint?

Sorry if im being a pain but it sounds kinda cool and i dont know how to do it.

Actually he is right. I imported some of the JA textures from Korriban into JO. And is that so hard to grasp need help? lol.

And gothic, the last time i checked, Cazor was the leader. Unless Thrawn took over I have no clue about any of that.

No. Raven said you can use their textures from the games for mods/levels.

He's right. Why are you doing JO levels when you've got JA, anyway?

As said before, the texturing and lighting need a little work. Some of the textures look odd, like the right wall on the second shot. It looks like metal, but I'm assuming that you're going for a stonish look.

Personally, I'd like to see the level with the lighting more near the final version. It's got the potential to be really good.

it's the whole team's team. me and thrawn just lead it. if you want to get into 'ownership' which i try to steer clear of, dont bring it up in this thread, go to tmu forums.

anyways, keep... resuming what this thread is actually about. hope to see updated screens soon.

Because this originally started for JO and Remnant Temple A is in JO. I cant just switch to JA.

And Cazor, I might get some more shots in from updates but they might come later because ive already started another section and I cant compile the changes. Ill post more shots on a later thread tho if this one dies.

..You actually can, very easily. In fact, maps compiled for JO will open in JA
A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

Ok the decision has been reached. I obviously can't make Part B in Outcast with the textures i plan to use. It will be in Jedi Academy. And I will later convert Part A into Academy also.
The levelforge made me change my mind. http://levelforge.teamhuh.com/forgelink/viewtopic.php?p=2495#2495
