Alas, cannot get that stupid download site to work, keep seeing some error .

It should work now

ShadoW_86, that maps visual flare is stunning. Stuff like this makes me think "what if", like what if Q3 shipped with stock maps like this? Would be a totally different ball game. phantazm11, same with you, stunning work.

Looks great - Nice job!

What does "Stránka nenalezena!" mean? That's the error message I get when trying to download for free.... I suppose.

@AEon: Thanks a lot for the feedback. Fortunately I was able to catch most of what you mentioned before I submitted the map. And you might be happy to know that I replaced one of the Rocket Launchers with a Rail Gun

@o'dium: Thanks man.

Another shot of my competition map, Windsong Keep.

If you haven't done so already, I encourage you to check out the maps in this years competition. There are some great entries! As stated in the competition post, the mappack can be downloaded here: http://maverickservers.com/forums/viewt ... 14&t=16949

Your work never ceases to amaze me!

Ferrao - i fixed it. You should download it from my original post, not AEons quote.

... years at q3w lem tends to have drilled us all into thinking in similar ways, i.e. quality-wise.

Can you talk a little bit about your process for making those, Odium?

I usually have to put the lotion on my skin, or I get the hose again

But really, its a combination of masking, model work, render to texture and photoshop, its a long process lol

ShadoW_86,
at first glance I thought fDk was working on another map ... then wondered why don't we see such "anarchistic" and creative wall brushwork more often... (because it turns the map into something like space maps)... looks very interesting, refreshingly "unbound" to normal mapping.

i think people just got tired of the geocomp style and - as a countermovement; and with great success, i think (sock!) - focused on more naturalistic efforts.

still. the idea of following a primat of brushwork over texturing is bound to yield interresting results.

@Shadow: wow... i just realized this is done in q1 nice

woah, beautiful, great effect!

Got a lil bit more time on my hands, starting working on my level again.
The graphics are pretty much in place, I just need to make it a bit brighter I think, that's a hustle though...

...holy crap Hipshot... holy crap... the tiles look very smooth and realistic against the terrain. I don`t remember anything coming close to that before in Q3, even with dirtmapping, phong shading, and all the like. Just amazing.

First thing that came into my mind:
"Is this quake 3?"
Seriously, you made me think it's a Source map, or even UDK. Add some contrast to the lighting and you'll achieve perfection there.

needs more grime XD

What theme is that?

That is absolutely stunning Hipshot.

I dont think the brightness needs to be upped. Contrast needs to be added though.

Texturing is beautiful.
