with a sky like that your shadows need to have a stronger bluish tint.
looks good. i like the terrain

it's pixelated because transparency (not opaque as you can see), the resolution is 512x512, not bad for a simple spider web. But the alpha usage makes aliasing, that's a norm.
i'm aware, i meant that you should use an alpha channel to make the lines smooth
-
you could also use that trick where you put a small ambient blue light in areas with large shadows.
Good job dude, on all aspects of the map.

Looking good i like the colored caves
Can't wait to test this baby out.
-
I think the colored caves look stupid.
Other then that everything is looking great to me
-
LOL i said green or blue, not circus colors. Ofcourse its gonna look sucking this way
-
It was just for fun
Whatever color you choose doesn't fit with a spanish mission in the XIX century. -

I agree with RD on this, It would look cool with subtle colors in the cave
-
lol, oh ok, you sounded a bit serious about it.
-
nice old school feeling! The terrain is pretty cool indeed.

amazing stuff like always. But just TRY for one compile to put in blue or green flares in the cave, even tho it might not fit the realism of the time, nobody cares when it looks amazing
RD=GENSI!

Small update here, I'm just adding a dome. Thought what kind of mission would be this one without a dome
In fact was in my early plans, but don't wanted to start it until I knew if performance could be enough.[Blocked Image: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7492/presidiorc00131wk.th.jpg][Blocked Image: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8868/presidiorc00126eq.th.jpg]
Soon will be added some paintings and other decals, hanging lamps and a prop that don't know the name, it's a big wood prop that is used to be placed just in the rear part behind the altar.

dude, do the wooden engraved cross like on that picture.
Better and better everyday man.
-
Yas, that engraved cross is so freakish that should be added
Meanwhile, some more shots about the church

I started to paint the 3dskybox mountains. The lamps have physics properties. And what do you think about the volumetric lighting? Maybe too much irrealistic? I should add some kind of decal as lighting effect to complete the effect.
-
This just keeps getting better and better
How did you get your mountains to be so interesting? They're definitely amongst the best I've seen in a HL2 map.
-
I love this, every map now includes a church/moastry or & cathedral in it.
Must be a classic style.
-
Mountains are made with digital elevation models as I said previously (there is a tutorial made by me into the valve´s wiki). The artistic part comes now, I'm trying to paint them to look similar as possible to real south western mountains (in the USA).

Catholic mappers maybe?
Churches have been classic in mapping always IMO, but most I've seen are europeans/gothic style, this one not.
