Your maps at LvL rock.

Congrats to the fury. Evolution is one of my all-time favorites, btw.

@Eraser: I think they just want a square brush that pushes the player away that is "roughly near or around" the pendulum while it moves. (If you look at it from above it only moves on one axis as well.) Since it's invisible it doesn't really matter that much I guess.

They're getting a tiny bit megalomaniac over there at Adobe it seems, lol.

The path is <Quake3>/baseq3/textures/ but as Obsidian mentioned the pk3 files are also read. The path may not even exist in your Q3A installation if you never made a map because everything is distributed in pk3 files usually. This means that if you have a pk3 file (e.g. a custom map file named somem...

I agree with obsidian and my impression was exactly like his: ad needs to go or at least get desaturated a lot (no matter what id did).

Don't get me wrong though: I think the ad itself looks great -- but it doesn't fit into the map. (Maybe it could if it at least fitted the color theme?)

I can only tell what happened to me. They deleted all q2w level design videos without warning and with the message "No gaming videos allowed" and linked the page I linked in my last post. Maybe you're lucky and they don't spot yours or they have decided to handle their policy less strict s...

Architecture looks great and the skybox is spot-on, I'd remove the purple light (?) on that roof though.

Video is sweet but will most likely be deleted soon because vimeo doesn't allow gaming-related videos . They also deleted my Quake2World videos even though I explained in the comments that this is a free indie game project I'm working on, not just a video of someone playing a random map of some game...

Defrag has checkpoints.

I played it and liked it, didn't really find any issues.

Wow, that looks great! @Peenyuh: Maybe, but I guess at least many of the mappers here do what I do when I start a map for the 1st time: run it without bots and just walk through it like a tourist. Without picmip and at full details, ofc. And one can even tell the difference in screen shots where mov...

@HipShot: I always wondered what it is that gives everything UT that ugly UT look & feel. Maybe you're right and it's the lighting. It's definitely about a feeling of scales and proportions. To me the whole game always looks like their character models in those battle suits if you know what I me...

That's even better, thanks!

Cool stuff. Couldn't find a readme in the pk3, so which license is this released under?

I'd rather waive the window.

But thanks for the clarification.

Hey Shadow! Great that you made a map for Xonotic. I also considered that a while ago.

Do you know what texture licenses they accept for maps?

EDIT: Wow, they got a preview release with binaries now, no more messing with ugly git and having to compile it yourself!

What is _blocksize and how do you reduce it?

Holy christ O'dium, he wasn't unfriendly at all. But about the green light: go for it!

But seriously: I like it & I'm also looking forward to seeing the game.

I've also had this problem a few times, quite annoying. @Noruen: Could you give an example on how one should place those hint brushes? @obsidian: While that is true logic is not important for many things in level design imo. And if you block it out (that's what I always did to "solve" this...

Why not, it's good!

Wow, that looks great! I'm sure we'll see some sexy maps with these assets.

For me it's exactly the same as for Eraser: I don't play enough to warrant a pro subscription. If it was like $10 once I'd buy the game. It's Quake 3, it's not really fresh and I already paid for it years ago but ... there is nothing better out there the match making system is really worth it imo. I...

Hi,

I'd like to know how many of us mappers pay for their Quake Live accounts. If you play Q3A or QL online, please vote (if you don't play at all it doesn't really make sense to answer I guess).

@Mods: Please don't move this to GD or elsewhere, I'm asking it in LEM on purpose. Thanks!

No need for picmip screenies imo, the people who really want Quake to be ugly can just use normal screenies and crank up their monitor gamma to highest, invert colors or something.

I like the pipes btw, they aren't shiny metal pipes so I don't think they really clash.
