Nestled deep within the maze is an abandoned mine that leads to ancient wonders. Enter at your own risk!

Yes, that is indeed AI.

Looks good, but maybe add a bit more detail, such as jagged vace walls. Are there any more pics? Not exactly a vast cavern atm.

This is just a shot of a large pocket in it. There's actually many jagged surfaces in it that can be seen easier in game. I don't really want to show many more shots because I feel it will be giving something away.

Perhaps post some shots of other parts of the level then? I'm sure they've undergone updates lately.

May I be the first to point out that that is some NICE lighting. :)

would a dynamic light in place of the normal light work with those shadows?

Here's an updated area. This is the room outside of the giant pool table.

Stormtroopers are ancient wonders? :confused:

He's avoided showing what he's calling ancient wonders. Anyways, yes, a dynamic light should work, though he might have to recalculate the cleaves (The range of dynamic lights is based on their intensity).

Bah! Sorry about the subject of lighting (I was dead tired when I replied). That actually is a dynamic light, although the only 3DO there (other than the stormtrooper I guess) is the light on the top of the bridge. I'm using Sige's lighter plugin to get these shadows in case you wanted to know (though I'm sure most people know by now).

They're very amazing looking, especially in that last shot. Even better than Doom III in the sense that they're nice and soft.

Well, I do have some 16 bit mats in the level already, but I don't want to add too many more because combined with the size of the level the filesize is just a little over 15 megs unzipped and it's still not finished. As for terrain, I'm not experienced with it at all.

I've released one last beta for this level, which can be downloaded from this page. I hope you all enjoy it.

Is that the maze from purgatory? God I loved that thing.

Then taunting people when I got to the end and they didn't :D

Is the ai synced?

I'll have more things to say after I attempt to play through it.

The AI is synched, however there is only one AI in the level ATM and it won't attack you (figured I'd give people a break before releasing the full version).

Well, there is a secrets text file that is included with the .zip, but it hasn't been updated for much of the later areas. I'll do that sometime soon and give a link to its hosted site.

I've done everything now except find the pool table, or the "Two Paths" room that leads to it... Can you tell me where it is?

Try snooping around the first room with lava that you see. Using the light saber would be helpful too...
