I recently wrote a little post on this subject for my site. I know my writing may be obscure here and there but I think you guys can get my point of view. Any thoughts on this ? Specially from you guys from the industry ? How do you guys see the industry in, let's say, 5 years ?

That's not completely true. All the Resident Evil 4 level design was done in Maya as seen in the making of.

I'd rather play the ps2 version on my... ps2

aw the hud looks really shitty
The game still looks awsome though. -
Yeah I'm downloading Maya 7 personal learning edition now. I just wanted to hear from people who used both 3d studio and maya.
-
I've been considering a lot switching to maya to model props and eventual levels. Is that a wise thing to do ? I mean, what are the real advantages and what version should I get ? I heard the latest versions are kind of buggy.
(I'm not talking about weapons/characters but level design specific stuff btw)

hmm I think it sould be better if you used a lighter-gray color for the fog
I love that kind of environment, keep it up moroes -
Sorry for disappearing... it wouldn't be fair to release all these kickass maps at an "almost-finished" state, so I decided to extend the deadline for another week. That's right, the new deadline is feb 12. This will be last time I extend it so you guys better get everything done and polished by the end

This' being a kickass contest indeed, and I can't wait to test all the maps and prepare the map pack

Keep it fellas

Beta 1 of my map is ready but I'll have to recompile it to improve lighting in some places (some places are pitch black
). Anyways, I'm very glad I managed to finish this one, I had a lot of fun working on a hldm map again

I'll be posting a beta bsp as soon as I sort things out and recompile it (the damn thing is taking almost 4 hours to compile on normal vis)

we can always extend the deadline if most of you arent gonna finish your maps in time

The only way is to repaint it

Poop in my mouth has an article about that http://www.poopinmymouth.com/tutorial/resize.htm
