Hey you, it's you!

I think you could put a subtle little logo if you wanted discreetly on the map with 'odium' or something, in the same way osp has that little icon placed on dm6.

Oh Drum, do you really think i could get away with NOT adding something hidden?

Hehe, it'll be like an easter egg.

did you decompile the old dm6 and import it? or are you rebuilding it from scratch?

Scratch, thats why its taking longer than 5 seconds. Plus this lighting is a bitch...

Hmm, makes me remember that I messed around with the editor the other day and apparently the default bsp mode doesn't optimize the triangulation like it did in doomedit.

With decompiling you'dl lose the lighting anyway.

I hope you achieve some nice lighting (and texturing) on your dm6 remake. Btw didn't you say you were gonna make a pro-dm6 layout? Shouldn't you call it OD4PRO-Q3DM6 or ODQ3DM6-PRO or something like that.

Afaik, he's building it from scratch, as mentioned in his other thread somewhere around

keep us posted with pics.

:icon14: :icon14: :icon14: damn nice work.

Nice work odium. It's kinda surprising when you think about it that they would do something like that themselves seeing as it was definitely a very popular map. It'll be fun to see it with some nice lighting too.

I'll say it again: Perhaps they tried to encourage the community to create assests like that themselves.

I think we got too little maps with Quake 4. I remember having more maps with Quake 3 like 17 or so dm maps and a load of ctf maps. Maybe they will make a add-on and load it with a ton of maps like they did with doom 3 resurction.

Well, Q3 was JUST a MP game.

Plus Quake 4 had "assault" planned but looks like it was canned...

Well guys, I'm happy to report bridge > rail is back.

Can anybody here tell me why the maps doing this? This isn't a curve, its just a brush...? (Those odd lines)

Did you enable show tris on just those 2 brushes?

Haw haw

I thought they were putting back dm6 just like the way they did with dm17 (longest yard)

Not that I want to take a stab at you or anything, but please keep the map at a graphics intensity that is reasonable. I think you'll get the most success from a port if you keep it as true to the original as possible. Don't go hardcore on the lights and effects.

Who said i was anyways, i a;ready said it was gonna be a detail-less straight up port.

In that case, carry on

Well, maybe a few things here and there. Remember that this is Doom engine stuff, so its not as easy to light a level as it was in Q3. Now you have so many different factors its not funny.

Looks good so far.
