Nice and atmospheric yyler, I approve.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

I uh.. Errr... Uhh... :O

That is amazing lighting.

 

[Archanor]

I started this about a year ago, but I haven't gotten around to finishing it.
About 30 textures was created for the map, all with normal maps, self-illuminated lights etc.

Suddenly a wild Star Wars Map appears.

 

[soylent robot]

i think its a bit too grey, but it looks good

 

[LeSwordfish]

True. A few more splashes of colour like the windows would look good.

 

[Archanor]

I do have some colored textures aswell, but they were made after I created this first room. Those are used in smaller sections such as hallways and possibly in hangars.

I think I need someone who can help me make a layout for the map though, as I'm not really that great at map layouts for TF2.

 

[Sgt Frag]

so SUCK IT

lol. I did say no -one would even notice in game though

The beams make that room look x2 better. Skylights a great touch there too. Coming along nicely

Yyler: Wow, I don't know if it's because of lighting direction or a fundamental difference between Source and real life, but the lighting in your screenshot looks way better than the reference photo. Nice work!

Archanor: Those floor tiles are epic, but maybe almost too realistic for TF2.

 

[Kill_the_Bug]

ok for some reason my pics got loaded in another area - thought I was posting into WIP but whatever - lol

Some of you wanted lights, etc - don't usually do that till the end - but - I give you a sample fo what I'm working towards:

The Bridge over the canyon gorge:

One of the routes:

Inside the cave - there's a lake bottom left off the cliff - should get some water fights there

 

[Vincent]

Interesting concept. Learn to use subdivide, then tweak the displacements around and that area could potentially be quite nice.

Hopefully this looks okay because I've been thinking of it as done for a while now

And here's the little room above and beside B, hopefully spytech in there isn't too odd

 

[Vincent]

The lights against the wall in that second shot look a bit to bright.
Other than that I like what you're doing with the maps art direction. Great job.

 

[LeSwordfish]

I dont like the sytech walls with the battered computers. I think it would work better with the normal computers. At the moment you have a slightly funky red-and-brown clash.

EDIT: Can you slightly rotate some of the crates in the background of the first shot? They look too neat., i think.

[jpr]

Ohh, I like

 

[LeSwordfish]

Damn, thats nice. Will those be publicly released?

 

[Fredrik]

House or not?

Well, start by making it brighter... A house might be okay, but remember it gives extra cover for players to hide in and surprise others. But can also help people by providing cover.
