Quake3World

Hello

Can I control how my map looking in fullscreen and non fullscreen mode ?

Here how it looks like now, first in fullscreen:



then how I expect to see always in non-fullscreen mode:



I just want that the map look exactly the same as in no fullscreen, is this depend on user or map settings ?

It is because of r_overbrightbits 1. It doesnt work in windowed mode. Overbrightening is like HDR, but only possible in fullscreen mode.

Yes thank you, that is what I've meant, but overall number of maps looking better with r_overbrightbits 1, atleast all q3 standard maps, well I think I will have to force peoples to play on my map with r_overbrightbits set to 0 then

Since I dived into Radiant for two days I thought I could post my outcome here...
It's supposed to be another redesign of a defrag map for my upcoming df-vid (like rhv, some pages before).

Initial idea with the tentacles and its style came from spray (very good lvldesigner, known in df universe). When he didn't respond to my messages anymore, I took over his map and added the details I wanted him to add. Now it's kind of a mix of the tentacles idea and the still-frame map "estatica". A cutie white/green octopussy coming out of the map.

Very nice stuff, Bliccer. Lovely looking croissant in the final screenshot

Very nice! Does this mean you can't fall off the map anymore?

Yes, no space map anymore. There are only 2 small pits of death. (see 4th shot)

ffs give us the head map already! (screens look nice, but I don't like the q1 setting in general :/)

Very nice texture set, and reinterpretation of that map.

For those into a bit more nostalgia you might like to take a look at my (pretty old) nostalgia page comparing pre-release Q3A images with final ones. The above beta shot is also there:

• aeon's nostalgia - compare... quake iii arena (1999)

New Minecraft castle

My (read: cpu's) converter still needs to be updated for 1.6, and the current version is very buggy already. I need to fix a lot of textures and fine-tune it, but the basic structure is still there.

The map is also not finished yet. I need to make it a lot bigger... at least twice as big. Maybe I'll find a better inspiration than this crappy Skipness Castle.

I also intend to do lighting in Max, not q3map2, because why not?

And this current texture pack is not fitting at all. I will find a more grungy pack, because everyone loves grunge!

lol, does that convert minecraft maps to Q3A? Does it do minecraft terrain as well?

Love the look of this, the Q1 textures are great and the chunky geometry is spot on.

You can select chunks to export and it exports every block as a brush. At the moment it doesn't merge brushes, so there are tens of thousands of brushes in a relatively small area most of the time, which is why terrain is impractical at the moment.

Nice rain!
I've made a similar effect a couple years ago on a level (to be released, uh), where the rain makes impact with the ground as it hits, obviously fake, but combined with a moving stormy sky and some sounds effects, it actually looks quiet nice!

Edit: I used the fur-shader system to spread the impacts over surfaces.

Do you still have it ?
if yes, could you show it how it looks, i'm curious

That map is weird... I get higher fps on it than I do on other, seemingly less demanding maps :S

Completely wrong level - however that one did have rain and uses that fur shader to spread it accross a surface.

Yes, I know better now.

Time to post a little bit of an update, not quake though. I am working on this for school at the moment, using Rhinoceros 3D and Maxwell.

Nice! Good to see that you got the lighting sorted out and finished adding all the details.

Where's the power cable for that lamp going, though? Not sure if I like the satellite dish and AC unit out the window. This neighbourhood looks pretty upscale but the building on the left looks like concrete jungle.

Ha... the table lamp I suggested made it into the image, and so did the ceiling light

Yes, thanks guys for your feedback!

Good point about the building obsidian, I kind of like how it breaks things up but you are certainly right.. maybe I will find a better option.

I made the exact same suggestions...

What's going on here, cityy?
