Quote from D3adsSystem Shock 2 owns Doom 3 when it comes to atmospheric PDA's...NP: Tomb Raider - Anniversary
Spent most of yesterday pissing about in Lara's Manor, finished it but I still can't get that final artifact where you have to jump backwards onto the slopes with the grapple.. far far too hard
lmfao that whole level was fun but it was so frustrating I don't feel like going back and playing that game
oh well
yeah its really a simple thing to do technically but getting them to look natural next to eachother might be impossible
you can try faking it by using regular lights, darken them and place them along the line of the bottom of the skybox geometry and adjust the distance they cast light etc until its sufficiently convincing, a pretty awful method but it'll probably work
adjust the angles on the light_envs

Also, if I were you I would play with 1) color correction 2) building textures or 3) lighting to try to match the map to a one or two color in order to kind of create a vibe and a mood for the map overall. You could leave everything just standard daytime, but I think saturating the lighting would give the map alot more personality and help it "glow".
Quote from SnipaMastaWhat else can he do with a structure that looks like 'one big block' of concrete in real life?
What kind of a goofball question is this? There is always detail to add, to anything.
If you can't see why detailing a large solid single textured cube is important I'm not sure you'll even be able to read this post. But I wont assist you in shitting up the thread either, if thats your goal 
This is a holy place.
Quote from SnipaMastaHow about actually answering it rather than dodge around it? It's a solid block of concrete with a slope - aside from a rail there's nothing you can add.
No buddy, no dice
You just said there was nothing to add and then two posts down changed your mind and added "other than a rail"... see why it was a stupid conversation to try to bait? Good.
I agree with his point but the dude was right, you never, ever attack the guy with the microphone
Now that we've seen night and day I agree with JP, night hides all the neat little details
system requiremensts:
1) NASA computer farm
2) Three terabytes RAM
3) Permission from God
on a serious note I better be able to run it 
thats pwnage I will admit but I think we all know both games will be equally, completely, unbelievably great

I'm very glad they delayed it.
There is an abundance of good games coming out and if the game needed more time, then they were smart to give it that time.
turn vvis off
Gears of war *swoon*
You map very fast and its a bit scary, but maybe... slow it down? Your brushwork and texturing while much improved from what we last saw could still use a bit of extra time on each building and some more thought put into individual areas. Like the foot ramp in this shot: http://www.albatros44.de/soviets/sov5.jpg which is basically just one big block with a concrete texture applied.
Just try to map like everyone else ;p Slow and steady. You've got enough maps, no need to rush-pump another one out. Take it slow and I'm sure you'll blow us all away
