A bit cheesy and on the melodramatic side but nice brushes I guess

Another update!

Update!

I have been playing around with the Unreal Editor and it's one of the most amazing stuff I have ever touched ever. I assembled my scene in the editor and after learning the fundamentals I played a little with the lighting.

I'm so used to Hammer´s measurement system (128 units = 3 mts) that working on actual cm units would implode my head

hrhr that green fake info_player-start i make one of those as well .. always

lol yeah. Unreal's player height is different so I got rather lost in the beginning.

I imported the scene into UE3 last night by the way, first experience with the editor and I must say I'm impressed at how professional it is. Been having some troubles with lightmaps and hotkeys but I hope to get them sorted out tonight and finish the blockout asap!

Happy BD man

Quote from Skjalg

After reading a thousand reviews on which pc monitors who are the best (I needed something affordable and great, after my 1k$ 24" dell monitor got ruined), then Samsung syncmaster received great reviews everywhere. After about 6 months use I gotta say that I think Samsung bought and paid for every single review.

Benq 24" ftw next time, got one at work and its superb for the price its beeing sold at.

I have two Samsung T190 here at the office. Image quality is damn good but their weird touch sensible power off button turns the monitor off every now and then... It happens in a daily basis to another 2 people here so I'm not sure if it's a faulty batch, a design problem or just bad luck

I´m glad the one I got at home has an old fashioned power off button and won´t turn off in the middle of a mapwars playtest

Those are all ep1 textures ;o

Hey guys, decided to participate in the scene from a movie competition at GA.net picking the bar from Fight Club.

I`ll be doing this by myself because I want to work on all aspects of this scene and because my schedule has been very uneven lately. It's the first time I'll be using the Unreal Engine editor so I'm really looking forward to this one.

Here's my moodboard:

Spent last night blocking out the main building and will do the surrounding environment today:

Crits are welcome!

Nice stuff seeing a mapwars map becoming a proper fleshed out map. The goldsrc version had a very sweet layout, will give this source version a try!

Editing: Just checked the map ingame, cool stuff! I found a few visual glitches but nothing to worry about. Did you use a func_water_lod? It seems that you also need a shadow_control entity. The indoor lighting also needs some work, it's way too dark. Make the light_spots wider and stronger!

Just got myself a cool 22" lcd monitor, it's not the prettiest but its performance is far better from similarly priced ones

Irfanview's batch conversion tools are what you are looking for

I'll be there!

I too got new sneakers

Is that Tengoku Gold or something like that?

Looking forward to the DSi but I won´t be getting one so soon.

Hell yeah

Here's an study of something I want to work on more. The building shape and the dude are boring and uninspired but I finally got myself an efficient workflow to paint this kind of stuff. Perhaps it will become my first full digital painting ever??

yawn, special effects like this really don't excite me anymore at all, there no soul or charm or sense of wonder in it, or the exitement real stunts have . Am I getting old?
