Caldera by Joacim "Grillet" Rappu

Done a first pass on the lighting. Noticed that the level is in general a bit too dark, so I need to brighten it up. Also might need to add some more stuff on the walls to break up the tiling and make them a bit more fun to look at.

Slowly forward. Mostly artsy stuff left.

Built w/ what settings?

 

Have noticed some spots w/ fast test gtk-radiant but these settings in Q3Map2 Toolz I don't get spots.

"[GtkRadiantpath]q3map2.exe" -meta -v "[levelpath.bsp]"

"[GtkRadiantpath]q3map2.exe" -vis -v "[levelpath.bsp]"
"[GtkRadiantpath]q3map2.exe" -light -bounce 8 -dirty -fast -filter -patchshadows -samples 3 -v "[levelpath.bsp]"
 
And I haven't even changed lightmap res. probably should though... Where's the settings for that?

Managed to remove the worst ones by setting the lightmap resolution to 0.25 and added _receiveshadows with a value of 1 and _castshadows with a value of 0. Still got some small spots in the picture, but they disappear when I do a more advanced build. Picture is Fast Test with Q3Map2 Toolz.

Thanks for the help.

    • [CS:GO] Shore
      One of the projects I worked on after I made de_austria.

      Yeah, I know the timing is really bad (CS2!), but can't change it... 🙁

      In general a lot went wrong during this project. Had a lot of problems with the layout, but I think I found a good compromise in the end. Also learned many new things. Maybe I would even be ready to create a really good map now after all, but I think that it's gonna be the final one. I really like making maps, but it has become too time consuming over the years for just being a hobby. Unfortunately I never managed to get a job in the games industry. So that's it. I hope it's a worthy ending of 20 years of making maps for me. 🙂

      Shore is a bomb defusal map for CS:GO that takes place on Lofoten Islands, Norway. (Also have a Hostage version of this that works well imo)

      I took some inspiration from this place in Norway:
