I Love detailing since I'm terrible at finishing anything and I have no clue how to make a decent map. And being an architecture student helps.

All you detail guys should jump in on the orphaned projects subforum when it gets put up. Easy way to skip all the design hoopla and jump right into your craft. I kind of find both sides fun. Getting a good layout down and then watching it go from developer grayboxes to actual structures is extremely satisfying to me.

And ugh - I really don't like that radioactive ooze texture. :X

'Nother random call out for detailing!

The big brush work is sooooo tedious.

The big brush work is sooooo tedious.

but takes a fraction of the time and actually is far less repetitive. Interesting view.

I hate both

Love detailing, love design.

Don't like Hammer, or players

 

[grazr]

I prefer Hammer to UDK. But that's probably just because i'm used to the UI. I hear the UDK is supposed to be more powerful but my brief encounter with it just makes it seem way too fiddly and complicated than it needs to be.

The BSP tools are infinitely awful and you should use them as little as possible. Modeling ability is invaluable in UDK.

Got some work done on koth_numbers:

Am I doing it right?

 

[Nicknam4]

I don't have a ton of napping experience or anything but I find detailing in terms of placing props to be very annoying. I must be naive in the process of doing so because when I copy/paste them they seem to be placed in the most random of places and I have to move them every time manually.

I much prefer the basic structuring of the map.

 

[Tarry H Sruman]

You should practice napping then. Sleeping pills are always available.

I was also going to make a joke but did not

Just want to say I was there before it was cool

 

[Tarry H Sruman]

You truly are a cutting-edge connoisseur of cool. I tip my hat to you, sir.

Got onto my laptop today and presenting slight progress in dx9.

And a spectator cam on the train. I feel these are needed more often in maps where there are trains.

I think the exit sign is meant to be embedded halfway into the wall, since it's two-sided and thick as two bricks.

so udk is an inferior sdk --compared to hammer--that only shines when you model spam? huh.

 

[tyler]

It's a completely different engine so comparing them like that is pretty stupid
