It looks sourcy. Not in a bad way though.

Looks really good, liked the ship-shot the most. Was Dear Esther an influence?

Dear Esther was one of my main influences along with tomb raider, 'The goonies' (awesome film) and a bunch of other stuff which I'll write up in the next few days.

The map is for Hl2 : Ep2, chose it because of its cave assets. I maxed out the displacement limit which I hadn't foreseen foolishly, which limited what I did with the outdoors. I probably could cut down on the displacements in some places but I think I'm done with this exercise now.

I remember this scene in the goonies, I had a crush for the chick and when she jumped off the board you could see her panties

are those standard textures for ep2?

[RedYager]

Only the texture used on the exterior rocks was my own, The custom meshes and textures were made myself also. The rest is all Ep2 content.

[Skacky]

That's some sick stuff you got there.

[Sentura]

what about the ladders and everything? the reason i ask is because i made something similar some time back and the reason i stopped was actually the lack of assets...

it's a given that it looks awesome. i'm also a bit curious as to how you managed to create some of the holes in the displacements, especially those that seem asymmetric. this was also a major problem of mine.

[RedYager]

The ladders and logs I also made myself. I've uploaded the vmf along with the assets for you to take a look at, its still validating at the moment so wait a bit.

Before i started the structures of the cave I had a look at what tutorials were available on them, as well as looking as other examples. I managed to take a look at the EP2 .vmfs and noticed instead of using one brush for say 6 displacement faces, they used 6 brushes which overlapped each other . I couldn't really understand why at the moment, but I followed the same example and realised why they had done it when it came to sculpting the caves. It made sewing the disps together and subdividing them so much easier, the only downside I found was view ports became a confusing mess. Anyway its rather difficult to explain so Ill let the vmf do the talking.

[Sentura]

thanks, much appreciated!

I downloaded UDK over the break and fooled around with some of the stalk assets. Ended up making a small little DM map. Decided to continue working on the flow but wanted to show you guys the big picture. This is about 3 days of work.

[2d-chris]

looks rad, somehow reminds me of a set in The Dark Crystal or Starwars

Something I've always wanted to do, is build a fantasy or scifi city into the walls of cliffs - could be so cool.

[Vilham]

yeah i was thinking starwars.

Something small to learn a bit more about the cry engine, before trying to do a proper level.
