WIP in WIP, post your level screenshots!

[Deckaux]

good stuff Deckaux but some of those textures gotta go...

Which ones?

[von*ferret]

this is the kind of crit that needs to be described like klein says. If you see something wrong, dont just vaguely point it out. Go into detail and we can have a conversation about said critique.

[Deckaux]

Yes, however.

I think I finally solved the problem. At least everything was fine after the last compile using FAST vis & rad. I'm currently doing a FULL compile and see if it's okay now, too. Although it would be very strange if the map was slower with a full compile than with only the fast settings...

If I'm not winning the contest, I'll release this for HLDM, although the gameplay won't fit that perfectly. But I just can't wait to hear your feedback after playing it.

[Crackerjack]

HEY! so its been about a year sinse I have really shown any of my work or done anything. Well thats because mods like to act like game dev companies which i believe is bulllshit. So i left them! And took my work with me. hahaha. This map is pretty small not sure if want to release it as a DM map or what i am going to do with it. Also there is another map I have to show but unfortunatly I deleted all the pictures so I will have to take more some other time. Anyways heres October.

[von*ferret]

very your lighting, right now its kinda bland lighting wise.

[Crackerjack]

those were my intentions actually, its supposed to be one of those despressing cold, bland days.. those days when you look outside and say the weather sucks.

[von*ferret]

make it moody with color variation

[insta]

Looking good, crackerjack. Will it have any buildings/interior sections, or is it terrain only?

[Crackerjack]

probably some interiors so the i dont kill performance with dysplacements... unfortunatly they dont block vis .

[von*ferret]

put in occluders man.

[Crackerjack]

those block statics and models... not other displacements or brushes.

[von*ferret]

there should be an optimizatino tool that allows you to block faces, unreal's occluders blocks polygons period.

[Bic-B@ll]

err nodraw?

[ReNo]

Aye, get some nodraw blocks in behind any significant displacement work that would block VIS if it could block VIS, if you know what I mean Tony nit-picking suggestion; use different plank textures on one of the two double wooden plank bits you have going over that rock (ie. shift the texure on the x-axis so they don't match).

EDIT: I have absolutely no bloody idea what "Tony nit-picking" means by the way, I think that was the worst typo for "totally" ever made

[von*ferret]

its that kind of texture attentin though that makes something polished.
