WD Posted November 3, 2005 Report Posted November 3, 2005 no model for the stairs. the lighting sucks anyway... Any luck by increasing the lightmap size ? I think it will help. Quote
von*ferret Posted November 3, 2005 Report Posted November 3, 2005 increasing lightmaps for models wont work since its vertex lit. Lighting is swag, I love the overall look. One of the best custom maps for source so far! Quote
hessi Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Posted November 3, 2005 well the stairs ARE a displacement. well multiple displacements... so they should be lightmapped. i will try increasing the lightmapscale Quote
Minos Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 God, that looks hot. I'm afraid the map package will be huge tho, how many mbs of custom content you have already hessi ? Quote
ReNo Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 Sexy indeed, but like mino I'm worrying about the file size also. Displacement surfaces bump up file size a lot - there was a space platform map that was made out of loads of displacements, and it was 35mb or something crazy like that without even using screeds of custom stuff like you are doing. I think using displacements for detail like those stairs is overkill, but by god it makes it look good Quote
Fruchtzwerg Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 File size is not important in these days... Quote
KingNic Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 displacing to hell no model for the stairs. the lighting sucks anyway... The floor doesn't meet the wall in the lower-left of the screen. Quote
Deckaux Posted November 4, 2005 Report Posted November 4, 2005 I always admired you for your efforts in beauty and detail, but this thing just 'schiesst den Vogel ab'. Congratulations, you've just become my personal mapping hero, please just keep up the good work and make me come... Quote

alexroyce Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 Just to throw it out there: Displacements add huge amounts to the .bsp's size.. My guess is each is 400-600kb. Quote
General Vivi Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 hessi i do believe that people will forgive you if you just make those stairs brushes. there will be plenty of eye candy in your map and i think it would help keep the file size down a bit. :wink: Quote
Grinwhrl Posted November 7, 2005 Report Posted November 7, 2005 Its looking hella detailed hessi, Just dont go overboard Let me know if u want some playtest help when ur finished with the work. Quote
