@bluestrike, looks great specially the cave underwater parts (lol sounds dumb to say that), but I wonder if you coulda pulled that displacement trick on your temple ceiling to make it curve smoothly?

@BJA:

Is that what you´re working on going to be a whole singleplayer map (last shots (of those rooms) you made included)?

I really like the things you make.

Yep its underwater and its bigger as it looks, its pretty much the whole hammer grid.

The water shaders are killing the fps tough

Cool . The water shader looks convincing. Something else you may find useful is some light reading into oceanography. The typography of the sea bed is broken down into very distinct regions which are very different looking. For example the continental shelf is abundant in coral and fish. The abyssal plain (several kilometers deep) is baron in comparison. The abyssal plain can still be interesting though with underwater canyons and ridges. There's a drastic decline in fish and coral as you progress deeper beyond the continental shelf.

Something else you may be interesting in playing with is a night environment. Many things underwater are bioluminescent, even the sand when it's disturbed.

Really nice stuff bja. Got a lot of details going on there.

Just noticed the lower part of that brick texture seems to have the normalmap green channel flipped? just looks like its on the lower part as if the tiles are actually going inwards?

Anyhow sweet scene.

Fantastic stuff, BJA. While I'm beginning to dislike brown very much, this looks to be very high quality stuff. Could be very suited for a Silent Hill / Resident Evil style game. Maybe you've already answered this, but what kind of mod/game is the map for?

Great stuff, Bluestrike. Always good to see something different, too bad to hear the project isn't going so well though.

Thought about doing it on that http://hrp.duke4.net/ thingybob?

[Psyshokiller]

Algor: It's Quake4.

No because of several reasons; This is made to be an 8bit classic mode mod. Most of the content will be custom. The mod itself has nothing to do with the Duke3D universe. Therefore I won't be using, nor will the mod support the HRP.

[Thrik]

Would anyone here other than Quakis actually play a Duke Nukem 3D mod? Seriously?

Just wondering. General curiosity.

[JohnC]

There's a rather large and active community of Duke3D mods, around the 3DR boards and such.

Here? Well, it's not for Source...

[Thrik]

I know there is. That's why I asked about MapCore, out of general interest.

[JeanPaul]

Good lord Quakis, dont you think its time to branch out a little bit?
