Not teleports.

i still don't quite know what portaling is... anyone???

It tells the computer to render the map in little zones. Basically it try to render things outside your vision.

Great Map, I must say, the structures are what make it excellent, but, as usual, much like Blood Gulch, not necissarily a bad thing, but i would have chosen a different sky, or different ground bitmap, but still, i stand by what i said, great map.

By the way, how long did it take to Radiosity your map in Sapien? I have a similar map, and it seems like it is going to take days...

I got the sky from ..erm how to spell it "Gephyrophobia"

I dont bother with sapien to render.. I just use tool at 0.5 when I'm editing the map .. only takes a few minutes

oh.. so portaling is a good thing, to only render the part of the map that you are looking at, instead of the whole thing at once.. ? right?

This just keeps getting better...I think it looks spookier (read: Halo-ish) at night than like it did before. 100/10!!!!

I'm still tweaking it

I was close to being finished but then I looked at the interior of the the bases and thought.. bugger.. gunna have to re-do that so over the last day I've added a few beam emitter generators etc inside the bases just to make things look a little more active. Just maneged to sort them out now so I'm bound to find something new to tweak l

no-offence but the image in ur post doesn't exactly make anything clear at all.. and definetly not the hill structure or bitmap!

There's nothing about a underground passage.. or come to think about it anything else ...

I dont have a stream... I dont had a sniper post.. So I cant see the relivence of your post..

also.. there aint no map "team"... it's just me and help from the guys over at gearbox forums...

anyway.. enough n00b bashing..

HoboRockAssassin: It's called Plethora

You have created what seems to be a level in the midst of being great. Please tell me when you plan to release it. It looks awesome.

Griff · Post by **Griff** » Thu Jul 15, 2004 10:21 am

still tweaking.. currently trying to master portaling but it seems to give me errors at each stage possible

edit.. here's a bit of eye candy

This definately looks like a bombass map. Keep working hard and release it for us.
