Ok, I decided to make pressure a tc map. Well, something between tc and dustbowl, but underwater ;)

Anyway, the shark is semi-done. I want to work a bit more on the texture, have to look how I get normal maps to work in source and spec maps... than we can start.

Now back to c++ for a while :D

Looks nice, I'd try not to have tooo much water in the map. The main rout is watery perhaps with a dry longer path to each location.
Nice shark, and I'm looking forward to it

There will be no water that where you can swim in. Like in Bioshock, you never swim too (only at the start lol). There will be water round you but you don't have to swim :) Just some water puddles here and there etc.

Hacky sorry :p NO LAZERZ :D

interesting. have the lay out planned yet?
Click to expand...

I have some ideas yes, but didn't draw a plan yet (that I will make this weekend). I just want to do some tests here before I start with the orange map :)
The map won't be red based since its an underwater facility of blue but red has some parts of the map too. Like if you played Bioshock: red(arcadia) blu(medical pavilion)

looking good so far, I like to tile texture a lot.
The side fin on the shark looks.... wrong, but the rest is great.
Are you using Max or maya?

Can't wait to see it in action.

Its uber normalmapped to see how extreme I can go. It will be more subtle near the final texture since im just experimenting :)
Shark his fin is wrong smoothing groups, maybe a bit too lowpoly too but that's a bit too late now to change innit? :p

I use 3DSmax :)

I assume that the sharks won't be a major feature of the map anyway right? I'm guessing you put them in either some type of aquarium or in some outside area that's only veiwable through windows and such.

I'm really excited to see how this turns out. I've wanted to do an underwater level as well. I was thinking of having two underwater biospheres (like in the movie The Abyss) with moon pools and everything.

Love the shark, btw.
