ah....good plan, along the same lines as the foghull, I hadn't thought of that.

I have the same problem in my map. What is foghull, will it make it work?

Yeah, that.
Or just have a nice greenish sky...

a foghull is just a normal cubemapped sky, only all the faces are monochrome (generally the same colour as the fog you want to use)

wviperw did a forest map with a foghull. here's the link:

Thanks seremtan, logical and neat solution:

lookin neat man.
I like the noir style a lot too

Im also happy to see a monochrome map I had suggested that as a MC map challenge theme but nothing really came of it.

Sky's lookin a lot better in that second shot.

I have been modeling for an application process for a school I'll hopefuly start attending after the next summer.

The request was to write an application, a resume, and to model a car with 1000 triangles at most accompanied with a texture map limited to 1024x1024 in size.



^^ two renders and an editor shot.

corsair, you should convert that to Q3Rally. Looks neat!

thats a neat idea, I'll look into that, thankyou 8D

Does anybody actually play that mod?

So far as level design is concerned, models are the future. Nice low poly model.

Hehe, I guess it was a stupid idea.

ever played Quake Rally? what a pile of poo

cant be THAT bad.. or is it..

It is.

I think Q3Rally had potential, but the maps really sucked.

QADEMZ beta1.5:
I hope it's harder, better, faster, stronger. Qademz map topic



jump'n'trickin'... basic actions




VISOR'S PEAK in alpha stage:



idea for jumppad peak - molten concrete, steam and smoke

Just ripped useful grid switching feature from tempest and applied to gmax. :icon26:

It's quite a shame that parent 3dxmax does not support this feature till version 8.
We can still use a grid object for this purpose, though.
But it means there always an unnecessary object floating around, which is a bit of an annoyance.

One of the maps I'm werking on for q3wduelctf mappack.

Hey! I did one of the maps for Q3Rally! Although that map was not great in the looks department compared to what I'm doing now.

Hey, your map was probably the best one. Sorry, I think I exaggerated. I always thought the gameplay was bad, but maybe it was more because of bad psysics and not badly designed maps.

I know that they had to make a lot of compromises with regard to physics because of engine limitations and average pc specs at the time. I remember there being a lot of issues with client prediction with 3+ opponents causing amazing slowdowns on average spec PC's at the v1 release.

TBH I'd like to see a new racing game based on Q3. With much higher machine speeds and the Q3 source availalbe there wouldn't have to be the workarounds and compromises that Q3R unfortunately suffered from. In terms of mapping there's a lot more that could be done now, given dotproduct terrain, projected decals, _skybox, lightmapped models, etc which just wern't around when Q3R was new.

hehe Amp. Might be a possibility sometime this year

What exactly is that Obsidian?
As in, what engine?
