"BOB" gone. School out. Work resumed.

YAY!!!!

Now, take a look at this steel.

Pity it's just a render. I doubt I could get it to look this good in-game.

Tons of school work, plus applying to colleges, and practicing for all-region band tryouts(bass clarinet)(I made 1st chair, honors band).

how about using a bump to get it to stand out ingame? you can do that, you know.

I've already made bump map for it(I used it in the render), and I'm gonna be giving it some reflective properties.

oh, and a bit of news...

A)Slightly better graphics card
B)Triple monitor setup
C)My laptop's dead again...First the hard drive experienced a head crash(all data lost), then a few days after I bought a new hard drive, my RAM chip died somehow. While I did have a copy of all my Facility work on my laptop, I had made very little additional progress on it, and I have 3 backups, each on a different hard drive.

lucky u have backups. Also wow 3 moniters?! all CRT's? cus if there LCD's im going to come and steal one, becuase i want a 2nd moniter, stupid dad and mom wont let me get a "FREE" 2nd one from a friend...

that ends my odd ramble of the day.

Cool texture. And what in gods name would you need 3 moniters for?!

TomClancey · Post by **TomClancey** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 7:10 pm

heh thats nothing my friend has quad moniters on a 2x2 square, he has the wallpaper on 2x2 stretch, and its awesome, i would only ever need 2 but meh, 4 is still cool.

Wow this is the best map i have ever seen...

I'm currently working on the railing in the final room.

render

[click for 3200x2400](I don't have the bump maps applied in max, in case you were wondering)
The textures on the stairs, supports, etc are the originals from the 64 version, and the texture on the railing is steel-light, none of these permanent. On surface of the stairs and the metal platforms, I'll be using a variation of the steel texture seen earlier.

That's a good thing your taking your time on this map. I went to fast on my runway map because I had to quit mapping. But I spent over a month on it and over 15 hours a day on it. I like your textures too on this map they look great.

stupid MC and his fat collision model...

JK-47 · Post by **JK-47** » Mon Jan 01, 2007 4:11 pm

This map is comming along amazingly

-Laser- · Post by **-Laser-** » Mon Jan 01, 2007 5:12 pm

amazingly this!

I didn't realize that the collision properties could be changed so easily in the biped tag. I was worried I'd have to go in and do something like edit MC's collision model in max or something.

(I just used the stair texture that's found on some of the other stairs. Again, it's not permanent, I'm just not in the mood for making textures right now.)

I believe this won't happen once I put some collision planes over the stairs

and I hoping this error will disappear once I put in some portals.

I slowed down the player by half(turned out to be a bit much), lessened his jumping height, and set the FOV to 58 degrees(the same as Goldeneye on the 64). Doing so made the level seem somewhat larger. By shrinking the collision properties, I also fixed the problem of MC barely fitting through the doorways.

I also raised fall damage to the point where people wont be jumping off the raised platform and skipping the stairs to save time.

And something quite odd. I found that as I was walking down part of the stairs, I hit some sort of weird something, and shot up 20 feet or so. If I could isolate this bug, it might come in handy sometime in the future.
