Wookie What I Got

Well, I decided to go back to the first level I ever made, and make it special. So, the special edition has commenced!

For comparison's sake, I will first show some shots of the original, and then I'll show some shots of the SE WIP.

And now for the new ones...I'm aware that a few of the textures are mipmapping and that there is DFLT.mat in places, so the first person who points this out obviously didn't read this sentence.

As I said before, this is a WIP still. So please keep that in mind.

I really like it. But your awareness does not save you from teh "OMG, I SEE DFLT". You might want to change them before you release it (really?).

Ooh. Nice use of the lighter plugin in the last two shots.

Not bad at all, though the coverings on those... shacks or whatever... look a bit funny. Maybe make the basic shape with archi, then flesh it out with 3dos?

Everyone makes mistakes with dflt, no big deal. I found dflt.mat in Spirals Laboratory :p

Q. How many testers does it take to change a light bulb?
A. We just noticed the room was dark; we don't actually fix the problems.

Or maybe it's the... dflt.mat?

*hides* :p

Very nice.
But dflt.mat can be slightly seen in the last two of your shots. I think you should fix that. :rolleyes:

What's with the seams in the wall texture?

SEXY lighting
2005-09-20, 4:38 PM #10
The seams are like that because the texture is mipmapping (which will be fixed shortly), and the lighting is from the lighter plugin (courtesy of Sige).

They're not seams, they're supposed to be there. GOD. What is with you people and your criticism? He's trying to contribute something to the community, and he knows what he's doing.

Yeesh. :rolleyes:

Alright, fixed the texture problem with some help from a fellow clanmate. So here's some shots of the updates.

The use of textures and the lighter is amazing
I'm not liking the color of the water though

Why is the answer to why always why? Why is there no final answer to why? Simply why not? Holy cow, this is pretty deep, meaningful **** I wrote. Glad I wrote it down. Oh man."

Your lighter work looks good and all, but your work still suffers from 2001 syndrome: This all looks fancy for 2001. Up your ability a bit and start giving that rock detail. Throw grass, pebbles, rocks on the floor. Make the rock walls leading to sky make sense. Stuff like that. Your levels, to me, are always just pretty boxy 2001-capable levels.

Does the water look better in the first or second shot of it? Cause I changed the surface to fully lit in the second shot so the ripples could be seen better. That may be it.

I like the original better. :p

I'll work on that some kirby. The only problem that I have with that though is that the textures won't line up well (and that's just a personal pet peave of mine). But hey, I'll see how it looks after I try it.

Looks excellent.

The only reason the water looks weird is because it's blue even though there's nothing blue in the cave to make it reflect that way. You should make it more grey or even brownish.

Those tetures are great, where'd you get them? The ground texture bears a distinct resemblance to the rogue spear 'rubble' texture.

I found one in Spiral's Haven MP map too. I think spiral is trying to... you know... do something to us, man. :eek: It's all a conspiracy from the government. ACK! DFLT.MAT... Must serve, must obey government! :o Spiral's an agent! 73H M47R1X0RZ |-|45 j00!!1

The level does look nice, but feels really empty. Needs some 3dos strewn through it. The walls look nice, but could use some details. The rocks are huge, but that may be what you're going for. ;)

It seems empty and somewhat boxy....

The lighting and textures look nice... but it seems to be lacking something.
2005-09-21, 7:21 PM #23
A few updates on the scenery. I'm aware that the walls are still flat, gonna get on that soon.

I think it looks great, but that double-tent thing doesn't look like it belongs. Neither does the flag. I suppose it's because the "room" is still a bit squarish, or something.
