almighty, it's probably your skybox. the cars will take on a different cubemap in HDR than standard lighting. switch to a grey or yellow sky and see if it turns either of those colors.

OK, I tried that. Still the same blue cubemaps on the cars.

I read somewhere that you had to type "buildcubemaps" in the console, so I did that too, but no change. I'm stumped.

Have you even placed env_cubemaps? =)

It's a env_ent, try placing one beside one of the cars and then rebuild the cubemaps in the engine.

OK, so I put an env_cubemap with default settings next to one of the cars. What have I done wrong? :icon28:

Compile without HDR, I guess it's that. Do you have a valid HDR sky? And I'm sure that you need to be in real DX9 mode to compile HDR Cubes correctly.

Might be the only and last real physical change to this map, made the outside area a bit more interesting, I had doubts about it before I played the map at work and it were confirmed that the map is fun on "all" parts except for that area, hope this helps!

cant wait to play it

@ hipshot: I fucking love maps that grow out of an organic environment. Looks just great. Veray good Job.
Gameplaywise it would fit an Unreal-based Gameplay IMO. Keep it up though, can't wait to get my fingers on it....

Did you type buildcubemaps in the console once you loaded the map? Looks like they havent been built.

Yeah, I did that too. No change.

I think Lunaran was right though, it's the skybox that is doing it. I think this one doesn't support HDR lighting.

High polygon craziness. Stone wall that will be rendered to normal map. You can see the block primitives that I'm starting with on the top of the screen and the polygon pushing result on the bottom.

Still trying to advance my modeling skills, I found some concept art of this gun so I gave it a go:

Something like 1500 polies

I've always been a picky with gun models, but that does look very good Kaz

awesome! that's the "aliens" gun, right?

Post by **Turbinator** » Thu Nov 23, 2006 7:21 pm

Beautiful gun, and good gun designs seem to be a rare in gaming. It looks real world, and actually both functional and usable. The only minor detail to take care of is the end of the gun. It seems to not have any shoulder support. Would be a little unstable on full auto.

Thanks for the comments

Pext: As far as I can tell it's a gun that was supposed to be in Tribes: Vengeance.

Turbinator: Heh, that and a trigger as well :P

Looks like the gun in AVP2.

It IS the gun from AVP. It's a marine pulse rifle used in the second movie of the quadrilogy.

Entity or anything grouping by external clipboard utility.
I think this is a much faster way to load prefabs or any group of textures in a form of brush.
