Taintacreage.

I decided to give this competition a shot. Sooooo here's Taintacreage.

This wet canyon was once clean and teeming with life, but now an infection
is spreading through the canyon. Get out.

Water surrounds both bases and pools in some parts of the map. I tried to make custom ambience and rain but the programs wouldn't let me do it.

Covie weapons are skinned with a whitish mold that is growing on their surfaces while human weapons are covered in moss.

The Warthog is skinned with moss, the Ghost with mold, and the Banshee with light moss.
All trees have full collision.

MC is skinned too.

Rocks are skinned and have custom bumps.

I believe the smg and magnum have new sounds.

New sky.

Cliffs have custom bump maps and so does the banshee and ghost although you can't really tell.

A bunch of small things as well. I threw this map together quickly so I think there are a few bugs.

I had fun making this, I hope you guys like it.

Yes I know the bitmaps for the hogs tire and chaingun are fuxed right now. I'm uploading a new patch that has them fixed. My map has this nasty cycle. If I fix the bitmaps for the hogs tires and gun, then the sound for the smg and magnum goes to complete hell. And if I fix the sound then the bitmaps get screwed up again. So my suggestion. Don't fire the magnum or Smg. Sorry. That only goes for the second patch. First patch just has messed up bitmaps for the hogs tires and gun.

This download has fucked bitmaps for the warthog tires and gun. But the sound is fine.

This DL has good bitmaps for dat hogs tires and gun. But DO NOT fire the Smg or Magnum or you will hear a very unpleasant noise.

We don't support HTML here.

However it does look like a decent skin, good job.

you ruined it with the vehicle and biped skins. the level skin is good, i don't like how soon the grass cuts of into the dirt. and the bump mapping on the wall texture is too hard.

I agree, but it still is a good skin, just needed a bit more work.

Are you saying I should have made the vehicle skins better or not have done them at all? And what do you mean about the bump map being too hard? Thanks for the CC though.

You shouldn't have skinned the vehicles at all, unless they look really good. But the ghost does look good.
