A much needed tool!

Quote from DaanO

I like the second photo best. It's a clear, pretty picture but it doesn't really keep my attention for long. The rest of the photos lack a good composition in my opinion, too much noise / details on them

Agreed, but it wasn't really a photo shoot of sorts. I was down town with two other friends and they sorta hurried me along. Next time I'll consider my shots more carefully.

Quote from RD

already have itPlaying boilingpoint more tho

But surely with a pirate version you won't be able to play online, which is kinda the whole point of the game? Good for getting an early taste though.

And how are you finding Boiling Point? I'm just getting into it.

Quote from GrayFox

Looks quite cool but:

Oh, they're only digital. :roll:

Happy days! Really looking forward to this, we should all get together and make a Mapcore force (Chinese, because Communism is king) to rule the world.

Took these on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday; no idea why but the sunshine did wonders for the focus, and I definitely got lucky with the composition on occasions. I haven't bothered making any grayscale either, the colours are too vibrant to throw away and level-manipulation didn't pay off.

Not my favourite Beatles songs, but something like Eleanor Rigby, or Hey Jude or even Strawberry Fields Forever would be considered the best, seeing as naturally they're the best band in the world.

I've since discovered that I find cartoony stuff much more difficult than realism since you just can't copy a photograph and call it done - a lot more "thinking" involved. Ideally I want a cross between Jet Grind Radio and World of Warcraft, but my art skills aren't really up to snuff.

Shade my eyes, that looks great.

Detail textures were superceded years ago by bump/normal/specular maps. Get with the times, grandpa; details make stuff look like papier mache.

I'd laugh if you kept pushing and your PC melted.

On second thoughts, I'd cry.

Good to have you back where you belong, lad.

Especially look forward to your future HL2 work.

Sidenote: I noticed the URL 'nude-soiree'; since there's a distinct history behind that title which I was a part of, I take it Anderval is part of your NS clan? I used to play with him and a bloke called Confidence/Flint Paper/Twoflow years ago.

P.S. You broke Bast.

That solves the first issue, but you're right, it's a stupid idea to have shite .wavs and .mp3s that just don't belong rammed down your throat.

Massive improvement, I'd mess with the levels though to make it a bit darker.

Those other threads, the way he takes the identity of MagicTMP et al...

Stupid fucking cunt.

Quote from Nazul

F5 btw a joke ? no i was bored ... it was 4 am and everyone was gone so just made pics with my phone , I think it looks nice

But compared to a full-quality screen capture? Little tiny pictures like that unrealistically hide any flaws in the map.

Ive been messing about with a few map generators, none of these maps will be finished, theyre just bleh

:roll:

It looks absolutely Godawful.

It won't be out at the cinema here for a long while (), but yes, Firefly is spectacular.
