Hi everyone!

I started my first project of editing that I will release for Jedi Knight, the first name for it is Jedi's Arena, but it can change in the future if you have any good other idea...

I prepared two screenshots for you but the editor's corner don't accept them, it says "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in d:\inetpub\massassi.net\ec\post.php3 on line 7". I don't know what to do... Please help me if you can!

To return to the level, here is the different areas that I will create for it:
1-Central Combat Area (With all the stuff, seats for people to watch the duels, a force field to protect them and a central area for the Jedis to duel)
2-Chambers of preparation (Where the Jedis do all the preparation stuff, like meditating)
3-Control chamber (Where you will be able to put down the force field, and maybe unlock doors and other stuff like that)
4-Halls of entrance for the spectators (Simply a place where you buy tickets for entrance, and where is one of the four entrance doors)

That's all for now, give me ideas/comments or help me with my screenshot problem please.

Oh thank you!

I tried some things this morning but none worked... I'll send the images half the size so that you can take them on the hotmail server.

Thank you again!

Excuse me Forsakahn, your MSN hotmail server is full, or there is not enough space for one image... I sent one image to a_person for testing, please upload it and put it on this topic.

I tried one last thing and it worked, excuse me a_person, you can forget the images! Here is the first one:

It's one side of the seats in the central combat area...

Are those seats? They're pretty freakin' big... and the textures aren't great. You should use some custom textures, preferebly 16-bit. Aside from that, I really like the idea. You can make a great level with that idea.

Ya I know there big but I will make 3do seats to put on the big crates... Please post your comments/suggestions!

Oh, excuse me, for the textures... They are not the final ones, it's just because I don't want to show you an entire thing with this ugly default texture...

I'll be honest... It's nothing. Please don't showcase 2 minutes worth of work. If it took a lot longer, sorry, but get better first.

Make a big 3DO seating, or something like that. A cleave out of big blocks ISN'T seating, it's a bunch of big blocks cleaved out.

Hi everybody! I advanced the level a little...

Okay, but the big crates aren't the seats! I have downloaded a big bench and I have it in the level now... I downloaded textures but they don't work (it's not that they don't work, it's that there all with little pink pixels...)...

I made a stair to go up on the crates, I made a new 3do barrier so that you don't fall, I made a hole on the ceiling and put a sky, and finally put some benches that I downloaded today...

Want to see the result or I advance the project a little more?

this means you dont have the right colormap for the 3do, which means do one of the following.

1) Change your colormap to match the 3dos.

2) Pick a different 3do to match your colormap

3) Make a seating 3do to match your colormap

4) Get permission from the author to modify their textures on their seats so it will fit your colormap.

Ok, but how do I change the colormap? I may have a preview when choosing the texture but when I put it, it's always with the pink...

I'm a little rusty with Jed, but I think I can remember how to do it without having to open it.

1) First change the global colormap. Go to Tools | Header and change the colormap with the text field and browse button or whatnot.
2) Get into sector mode, select all your sectors, and use the properties window to set their colormap to the same one you just selected.

Ta-da.

Hey when you need a Beta Tester.

Hi everyone!

Now I changed the colormap and the textures are good! You'll see them in the screenshots...


Here is the sky!


Here is a global view of the seats and other things... You may see the two new textures in here...



The REAL seats and a barrier...


And finally, the stairs...

Comments/suggestions are welcome!

P.S.: For the beta testing, I will send it to all the people who want to try it!

Cool looks better....

------------------
SpriteMod (JO 2003)

Infinitely better. Are you going to include, like, concession shops or royal chambers or something behind the seating? That was the best part of the otherwise crappy TPM game: The levels were always big and interestingly detailed. The Raceway level was the best for this reason.

-Put something behind the stands. Anything.

------------------
It's our All-American product. We got the idea from the Germans. The French hate it. It goes for half in Canada. The English have a version, but it's not so hot. There's cheap knockoffs in India. The Japanese are devolping a sleeker, sexier model. Made in China.

I worked a little on my level today, and I finished one side of seats in the central combat area... Here are the screenshots!





Everything is okay? Should I change something before making all the sides like this?

I thinked about the stands, maybe I will put a gun store for the jedis before they enter the arena... And maybe toilets and stores for the spectators... Anything else?

The artitecture and textures seem confusing to me. Temple textures with modern metal seating? Is there a theme or something?

I think you might want to use another texture for the stairs, or stretch/shift it a little so it doesn't show that dark spot twice -- it really doesn't look very good.

I also spy a stitching error on the lowest bleacher (unless it's the mipping)

Overall design is interesting, but I agree that something should be up behind the seats (like a team or advertisement billboard, or a scoreboard -- or maybe the scoreboard should be suspended in the center... you decide), and add some more decorations (torches maybe?)

It needs textures. Good ones.

I think you need a theme, looks kinda mix and match to me.

I know the textures aren't very good, but I will change them someday... Maybe if someone is good at making textures, you could help me? For the stitching error, I think it's just because I didn't put the blenchers all side to side...

The architecture is not finished... I will add columns and other little things...

For the theme, it will be an old temple all restored by the imperials for amusement... Like seeing wich jedi is the best or a Sith killing a captured jedi...

Ahh, that woyuld be my fault. I released that really bad 3do years ago.

Anyway, interesting design but the implemetation needs some work. Too boxy for a start, the textures clash, and the textures you do have need to be scaled up. If you don't know how to do that, select the texture and in the "U Scale" and "V Scale" boxes in the pop up box which appear when you press enter, set the values from "1" to something more like "0.5" or even "0.33" or lower. All in all, it looks promising but it needs more detail, but I agree with the people before that something behind the bleachers would look nice.

Well of course the textures clash! Its up against a DFLT.mat for crying out loud!

*ducks as full wine bottles fly from all directions*

I'll leave now.
