Belgarion

Revisiting the "Eclipse Redux" idea...

Yaaaay. That looks a lot better than what you first posted. I knew you could do better. :wink:

very wip

But very cool.

good question.

I've always wanted to work at Valve or Monolith. Ever since I got FarCry i wanted to work at CryTek. I bet Raven would be an awesome place to work too. Working on the JK series... yessss.... I'm sure there are others, but can't think of them... KFS, give us JK4.

i think what you see is how the boots seem to end the taper abruptly, and end up looking slightly like shoes with socks. make the boots more gradual as they aproach the top. looks great so far. far better than I can do, that's for sure. i suck at organics.

way to be constructive...

anyone seen the newest CAD episode? it was uhh.. lol. different, but still funny. I'm not sure I like the animation thus far, but I'm willing to give Blind Farret time to grow into their role. Given another year or so I think they will clean it up. thoughts?

holy frick that is creepy

I've never seen any FPS with realistic bows. The "only" problem with such ideas would be animating and coding.

This is it, it's just my idea and what I'd love to play/work on. If it's innovative or not fuck it, I don't care. I fucking hate these stupid japanese games being labeled as "genius" just because they feature some random stupid ideas.

theif..

just work on it then. you don't need anyone's approval to work on something you think will be awesome. do it man.

i actually really like that trees vs lumberjacks idea. you could fling pinecones at the luberjacks trying to cut you down, or swipe them away with your branches when they try to climb up you. that'd be really sweet.

i don't suppose you could add spawns and pickups to that FC map and put it up for download...

congratulations on completion! it really is a spectacular looking map.

OOOO! I got my 20D! The simple smiley face does not convey my glee, but that's ok. Text is rarely capable of properly conveying emotion.

I took the cardinals with a 105mm lens. 100% crop.

the robin.. well.. it was the only bird i could get to pose for me today after driving to a friends house and borrowing his 70-300. these pics are all 50% crop or less.

and my new sig is a string of three pics I took with my 20D also. sadly, i don't own the software and am too lazy to find something that doesnt brand gifs.

hey that's really good

that's a really good idea. people should make more sets like this. heck, if someone can think of something like this they want I'd be willing to do it. good work vivi.

shots 1 and 3 are brilliant. the last two, however, are somewhat of a bore. the building, for instance, is quite bare. put something on it to make it a tad more interesting. snow drifts or communications equipment maybe? it's just completely uniform all the way along it. something needs to break the monotony. that said, looking forward to playing this.

Awesome

lol. such happiness at death.. makes me wonder.

nice shots. sad subject.

haha i'm blind ignor me

yeah. I came here trying to find a "They let me release it! yay!" kind of thread and was slightly dissapointed to find none..

Images are sharp but you really need to think of your object placements..

care to elaborate?

again. This time I used my uncles D60 and a Tamron 28-105 2.8 lens. I used the camera for three days before I took these shots. I LOVE this camera. I can't wait till my 20D arrives on wednesday.

it's an excellent book for car trips. i keep mine pressed between a large encyclopedia and the shelf with a clamp to make sure it doesn't get wrecked durring the summer (it gets a little humid in MN, and the power goes out occaisionally)

Made this for someone in the HL2world forums. 420(rawr! reduced to 344!) faces right now (without the phone). I have no idea how good or bad that is. This is my first prop model (well, very nearly), but I think it's pretty optimized, though I admittedly am very new to modeling.

:edit:

:edit:

finished. I think. 430 something faces I think. Plus or minus 15 faces. Did it all in one day! Woohoo!

Besides, what are you guys gonna do with all the bsp's now?

no kidding. just release them and say "they're pretty. look at them." It'll be a tribute to NW that the hardcore fans who've been following it for a long time will really like. Release them as a bonus with the finished mod later, or if that never happens.. just throw us the bsps as they are without even making it a mod. just give us bsps wads and models.

i won't touch anything but Gtk 1.4... then again, I havn't touched that or Hammer in months.. sandbox is the only map editor i've opened in a very long time, and that's only in the last few days.

Looks great Belgarion. But isnt the environment lightning to bluish and cold?

Well, those were the default settings. I think it looks fine. Maybe i'll toy with it later. I've been making an oasis map which.. eh.. looks borring. again, the environment settings are what need tweaking.

quake 3 BOOOO

<3 Quake 3

It looks very nice to me, though some of the textures are a tad streched. and it is a little blocky, but since you're focusing on gameplay that's fine. I like the feeling you've made though. Unusual for a Q3 map.

Yaaaaay. A FarCry map. Decided to pick up Sandbox again yesterday and almost finished with this today. I know it looks like just about every other FC map in existance, but it's the first time I've made a FC map I'm actually proud of, so boo.

No gamma adjustment.

<3 FarCry, CryTek, CryEngine... and those aaaaawesome waves in FC:Instincts Predator

yeah.. i agree. I would rather see a HL-engine release than source. they did so much work with HL, why not just see it through? I think I enjoyed HL engine more than Source anyway..
