Lol google, good idea searching there for textures and such, I never thought to. Do you have a tutorial on making your own textures how to import them to GTKRadiant? I can't figure it out.
Just put an jpg or tga (or png in further) to base/textures/<foldername> and enjoy.
@ odin: kinda reminds me of uncreation in a weird way. looks good though. i love uncreation, but everyone always nextmap votes when it comes up.Actually that was the goal of my project. I did an alpha gameplay test with }MG{ a while ago and it seems ready to release. It is called "Abyss".
Only the work of Hydra and Ingar looks above average, the rest can join the big pile of mediocre work we already have.
@ Gareth is that brick texture selfmade, taken from google, or did it come from another map, ive yet to see it.
Quote from: "DoDFlux"@ Gareth is that brick texture selfmade, taken from google, or did it come from another map, ive yet to see it.
The brick texture was made by me (Gareth, correct me if I'm wrong :wink: ), I gimped it from a picture of the wall of my parents house.
I've put it a pk3 file here:
http://users.telenet.be/ingar/tremulous/files/ingar-textures.pk3
It contains the bricks, some concrete and the glass shaders I use.
From time to time, the glass shader can causes clipping problems,
so if you use it, make sure your windows properly block players.
Free encouragement for everybody!

Looks really nice those maps. But I really have to say that you might want to put the roof down a bit, cause to me it seems like jettard haven.
LOL, not all jettards are noobs at it. I kinda a jettard at times, use to always be when I started, and my death ratio in the air is 1 death for every 10 times I go out flying. And if you shoot cautiously your ammo can last you a long time.

The map's called Hideout, and it's supposed to be a secret underground human base on some planet. Don't worry, It'll get improved, as this is a very preliminary shot :)

Reminds me of halo...
looking good trak, i like the idea that it is an actaul place rather than just some random industrial base.
heres a wip im working on.
Its a secret government base, created in case of nuclear war, but that is 1000s of years ago now, it has been infested by aliens since then.
the water for the facility is purified from underground rivers:

Oh, god, Kaleo.
That looks like..
SOKOLOV'S SPACE
Quickly, delete that map and start over, or atleast make sure it's balanced. That's one thing Lava seems to have a problem with.
While Sokolov may look nice, it plays like absolute shit, the same can be said about ATCS3.
I honestly don't see how Lava has made a respected place in the mapping community
if he's only good at texturing, and flaming new mappers because their work will obviously be more playable then anything he's released.
Now, let us discontinue this particular argument.
Why, I'm referring to Paradox, Xiane's ports, and other mappers you've discouraged.
I've talked about fcp longer than he has about fusion :roll:
Infested pumpstation is a great map, what's wrong with it?

Maltagearion: Yes it is. By default that is how dark things are for new users. You have to change your gamma to default when you test maps.
Or use the -gamma argument for q3map2.

This is a preview of a map I've been working on called 1984. It doesn't fit at all with the tremulous theme, but I'm mainly just having fun with it and trying to do something different. Still a WIP, probably about 30% done.

Aurora is the future of Delta Labs. Didn't you read the news?
Very nice Gareth,
But since therse are bricks and stones, why not breaking a bit the symetry like making half-destroyed columns, a decayed stair (still usable) ? This would give some cool look to the map.
Uhmmmm.... this makes me think about some really DIRTY map... not all those straight lines, clean-room quality floors and general sterilisation of the map ))
no, really. Looks great, cant say anything really bad about the quality. But the Trem. theme of cleanest maps ever is a bit tireing already :(
Look at least at WolfET maps, they are a bit more dirty, even the 19** map (cant remember the name) looks like old CS map, and no where near the actual WolfET "dirtiness".
It would have been great to see a map done in the style of WolfET, but not nessesary about WWII, any time, just same style of brushing/texturing/lightning.
DUDE!!! WHATS THAT LAST ONE!!!??? KAREO WANTZ!

No, fog cannot be turned off in Quake3.Which is kinda my point.. it could make problems.

Wait for me to code up an ability to use different models for buildables/players and you will be able to adapt the models to the map as well.
(meaning that the mapper will be able to SET the model of a turret, for example, changing it from the default one)

Someone's been playing Station15 too much :P As far as I know, no other Tremulous map has such a terrible skybox as my attempted planet render.
Just use whatever looks best for your purposes.
Shader lights aren't always the best way to go. Unless of course, you make your own shader lights. :P Because sometimes they appear to bright/off-colored/dark etc.Shader lights should be used almost all the time, mainly because if you know how to make them, they usually look much better than point lights(and more natural looking).
I use point lights too... in most places, unless the shader lights have the right effect that I want.

No, sorry, it's merely for decoration. It would be a royal pain in the ass to make it ridable.Just make it a simple func_train that teleports from end to start, so that players can see it zooming by through a window or something.
Although if the developers made func_trains able to turn corners...

Ban Box Maps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_geometric_shapes).If a map was made on an octogonal grid, for instance, Corridor A might be 3 humans wide, but identical corridor B would be 2 humans wide. Similar stuff happens on hexagonal and triangular grids.
The problem is not in the shape, but in the layout.The problem is the simple, empty box-shaped rooms. Hence why it's called a box map.

PK01 - Quake IV texture set by Philip Klevestavhttp://xreal.varcache.org/base/textures-pk01-20070707.pk3
www.philipk.net | philipk@philipk.net
***
Howto install:
Simply unzip to your q4base folder where your Quake IV install is located.
***
This set was meant to be larger but due to lack of time and a bit of
lost interest for this set I decided to release it as it is now.
Some stuff should have been tweaked more but as I said
I won't and will just release it in it's current state instead.
I sure will try to release more sets in the future tho.

Feel free to edit the textures and make additions in any way that suits you.
Have fun.

@Odin: Are you using the normal maps provided with that texture set to make use of q3map2's 'bump-mapping' feature?It would probably be unnoticeable due to how low-res lightmaps are. To get anything noticeable you need to put _lightmapscale 0.1 on everything.
If not, give it a try and see what the effect is!
And given Quake3's crappy 4MB(?) limit for lightmaps, that's impossible.

@Pete: Since this thread is already heavy on the images, please do not quote them.
You could make trem load external lightmaps(XreaL does this) if they are available(and make q3map2 not save them in the BSP). That way, old maps would still work.From what I know with jdolan increasing Quake2World's maximum lightmap size to 16mb, it's a simple thing to do. It does create some huge fucking BSP files tho, obviously.And given Quake3's crappy 4MB(?) limit for lightmaps, that's impossible. Too bad :<@Odin: Are you using the normal maps provided with that texture set to make use of q3map2's 'bump-mapping' feature?It would probably be unnoticeable due to how low-res lightmaps are. To get anything noticeable you need to put _lightmapscale 0.1 on everything.
If not, give it a try and see what the effect is!
@all coders: I think you can safely quadruple the maximum size of the lightmap without breaking backwards compatibility. Maps using the bigger lightmap naturally would not run on a 'unmodified' ioQuake3. *WINK* *WINK*
Would quadrupling the limit be easy or would it mean to completely remake the handling of lightmaps?
The point is that old maps will continue to work, since they will not interfere with the increased maximum size of the lightmap, and certainly not exceed it. Loading external stuff just for higher resolution lightmaps is not worth it in my view, unless you load external files like Darkplaces' .rtlights files, which contain 'static' realtime lights, to greatly improve performance when using realtime lighting and shadowing.You could make trem load external lightmaps(XreaL does this) if they are available(and make q3map2 not save them in the BSP).

Troy, is there going to be an underground part to that map? It does look very Wolfensteinish, which isn't a bad thing. Anyone up for porting BaseRace?
Troy, why is the FPS counter censored? ;D
I demand plants I can smoke!
We love Stannum! :D
Taiyo played too much DOOM3!Aww crap, I can see the glaring similarities now you've said that.
I'm still surprised that I managed to finish it...Wasn't as hard as E2M8 was the first time I played it :(
Final boss was worth it though.

One of the prefabs for future use..
Yes but as Troy says; He focuses on imersion and not gameplay.Which is the right way to go about mapping. As long as it looks stunning, you are doing your job.
@==Troy==: Second screenshot looks nice, got a much better idea of the map now. Will people be able to enter the skyscrapers at certain points?
You could for example add something like acid rain, that starts to fall down every now and then. This would be a good, not-controllable-by-players way of making Jetpacks not perpetually camp against the ceiling of the map.@==Troy==: Second screenshot looks nice, got a much better idea of the map now. Will people be able to enter the skyscrapers at certain points?
At some point yes. But as I said, my main aim is to see if humans are not going to be overpowered on the city streets. After testing the map on Fun-Zone (and it is up there for a vote "zerocitytheme-fp1") I was surprised to know that aliens actually had advantage over humans, but mostly because the skycrapers were just boxes and there werent so many places to build base.

You know, the kind that shoot bullets.
It's very shiny, but it doesn't quite seem "Blaster-y", but instead "Magnum-y"

I actually loved the new MD, even without textures.
Haha. That's what a mass driver does. It fires a metal projectile with the help of a high-powered magnet.I actually loved the new MD, even without textures.
Md looks sex. The only problem I have with it is it seems to take bullets. Moar batteries.
A coilgun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coilgun)?Except the MD from Tremulous is nuclear powered, which is why it has the nuclear fallout symbol.
Looks more like a railgun (http://www.powerlabs.org/railgun.htm), or at least it has parallel rails.

Did you do that on GTK :oI used Shinytrem(my mod) to get the models to look like that.
and what do you use for your textures :o
And are you using wierd lighting or something, because i swear it looks alot better, the turrets and medi look brilliant...how?
and whens it released...
and why are you so good?
I used Shinytrem(my mod) to get the models to look like that.
This map won't be released with those types of graphical effects(they are far too slow for the average player), but I will update Shinytrem to include them.
Bloom (aka "Glow FX" in some games) makes lights look more brightthanks.

Your mistaking display colour depth for gpu colour math.
spry.bsp was an awesome Deathmatch map in the Quake II-based game SiN (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SiN). It basically was like all blowup maps, in this case a huge living room, with a mousetrap serving as jumppad. If done right, and with much more attention to detail than what nukcake shows at this moment, such maps can be awesome.

eew, looks like Halo.
Quoteeew, looks like Halo.
Or the ugly Quake version of Halo.
But, saying that, this isn't Halo, and I have no right to even say something like that, because I could never make a map like this. And it takes balls to make a map in this proprotion. Tress, tubes, fortress like base, water, Zyrion-like architexture, I love it. It really pushes the limits of what other mappers tend to do, it might need a few fixes here and there, but it looks great.
I think I'll play Tremulous right now to test this nifty map gameplay-wise, if its out that is. Where is the file for this map nubcake(Yum, nubcake.)? Or, where is the server hosting it?
it looks really nice, but change the tube texture, it looks blurred.

Remember this (http://odin.mercenariesguild.net/tremulous/base/screenshots/shot0638.jpg)? Sadly, we had to remove it from Datacenter because it was just far too slow. It had a ridiculous amount of tris and was just horribly slow. I did save it to a prefab in our project so it may return if we can figure something out.How many tris is a ridiculous amount?
I think it was somewhere around 22k, even after an optimization that brought it down from 30k. Patches helped but it was still too much for one room.Remember this (http://odin.mercenariesguild.net/tremulous/base/screenshots/shot0638.jpg)?

:o that looks amazing! Doom 3 Almost!Unfortunately it brought down systems as much as Doom 3 did in its hayday.
Looking good there nubcake :)
There's a few little things I would change based on what I can see, though:
The outer walls (the rock) of that outside area need more height variation to escape that box-room feeling, especially because the area seem to be roughly square in shape, which just adds to that impression.
Some detail elements look like they really should me made with a smaller grid size, such as the railings on your walkways, which look a little too blocky at the moment. I' suggest making the vertical parts less thick than the horizontal part. Also, making them less thick altogether might be a good idea, 8 units(I think?) is a bit too thick for that kind of thing imo. Same thing goes for the girders, like those in your second shot, above that cave entrance. The uniform brush thickness looks odd.
The lack of 3-point-clipped detail elements is quite obvious as well. I'd recommend bevelling some edges, although this is entirely up to you.
Overall, looks like it has potential, keep it up, you're definitely improving :)
Have you noted the judges that you and Jake are working on that?
What's the theme of that map, Ame?
I should stop posting non-trem stuff hereI should
Nice, but if you want to censor fps you should use cg_draw2d 0 :angel:
It looks nice, but I think the more stuff you add, the higher advantage you give to Dretches and the like. There's a million places to hide and it'd be suicide for an unarmored human to walk out of the base. Unfortunately your map may become a total campfest for the humans if it gets any more cluttered with stuff.
well he did white out his fps. is the map even close to playable
Nice, but if you want to censor fps you should use cg_draw2d 0 :angel:
HAHAHAHA you caught me out. I was getting 35fps @1024x768 on a 1.8ghz celeron laptop, 1gb ram, Built in 64mb Intel gfx card :laugh: Also i havent made any of the walls structural cept the bounding box/roof so i hope to get 50 - 70fps which for comparison, i get 33fps on transit on the same settings :)
That shall be done today when I'm through with life. :)
Is that statue an assortment of brushes or a model? If it's the former, good job.
fricking awesome. how much affect does it have on FPS??
fps is overrated rain is fucking awesomefricking awesome. how much affect does it have on FPS??
As of right now your FPS just dies for the most part, lowest i got was 19 fps but that was with a finer use of the shader.
If i toy around with it i could probably make it more fps friendly.
Actually mostly quad-soup, with tri-souped bits to turn corners and the like.
Ohh, looks nice. I personally think that your skybox needs to be a bit more overcast looking, and maybe have the clouds moving the same direction as the rain. ;)

30fps on a built in 32mb intel video card on laptop :) from a thread i made on tremwars
Intel core duo 1.86ghz celeron laptop. Built in 32mb intel built in video card. 1gb ram running on vista.
Minimum FPS:
Rain map (with rain)
640x480: 52 1024x768: 20
Rain map (without rain)
640x480: 90 1024x768: 75
Transit (comparison)
640x480: 56 1024x768: 27
Jake has similar specs but a 9800GT and gets 90fps at all times on any resolution. So its really down to video card

trak please map for tremulous again.
As soon as I get unbusy enough to port the xreal renderer to tremfusion! ;DXreaL's renderer has various client-related things that make it incompatible with ioQuake3. Porting the XreaL renderer to ioQuake3/Tremulous would break compatibility.

This really makes things interesting.
no it's an entity.
no it's an entity.
so would it be a pre set model?
When I released the map I noticed that the .pk3 has missing textures, I updated with textures included inside .pk3 and still missing textures.Be sure that all JPEGs have no 'progressive' flag. Only plain JPEGs and TGA alowed. Also use only textures from your PK3. Its always best choice. And check all your shaders - may be you have errors there.
Most of the time I prefer creating multiple brushes and manipulating them to form the shape that I want. I find it offers a bit more control.
Well, I wasn't very specific in that post, but I use that approach for windows and doorways, mainly. Places with holes. Otherwise, I may start off with separate brushes, and merge them later.Most of the time I prefer creating multiple brushes and manipulating them to form the shape that I want. I find it offers a bit more control.you can have a N-gon with 3 point clipping from just one brush. And there is no way to make it out of a box by dragging the edges/verts. If you are going to make the same out of several brushes you are increasing vert and brush count, which is always a bad idea both for render, memory usage, and having a nasty limit for those things in q3map2.
Not sure about the textures on the pipes however.
Though Kaleo has a point - the pipe looks like it's made of asphalt.
I hate to say it, but I'm not liking the brushwork. Looks a bit amateurish in my opinion.

I think he was talking about looking at all the photos in this thread.

ok, no more plants on snow:
Hi, after all this time with trem I decided to try mapping. D:Not bad. One thing i notice is the blandness of the floor. Give it a trim or lower the middle section.
So... after about 5 days of learning radiant. (Not 5 whole days >.> ) Here I am playing around with a few concepts/ideas.
Hey TraK, you seem like a fairly decent mapper.lol, i agree, TRaK you should make some moor maps for tremulous, although I love your current trem maps :)
I just discovered this cool new game. It is free and is called Tremulous. (http://tremulous.net/) They are coming out with a new version soon. Anyways, they have this mapping program which you can make maps for tremulous and try it out! I think you should map for tremulous, it looks cool.
P.S. Mods, please ban TraK from forums if he has not made 5 perfect maps in the next week.
:F why they don't want to add parallax mapping :( You will never get that kind of graphics with current outdated engine
Looking good, you two. I see moose is going for the arachnid approach. :)

ill help too if you like my first map which i finished but for some reason it doesnt show up in my game after i put the .pk3 in my base. but yeah if you think its any good ill be willin to help

I would never laugh out loud at my OWN map.

What. Why would you post pictures of someone elses map. ???
Because I can. What's wrong?
I always post stannums shots, both of weapons and of greenhouse. He never gets around to posting them.
All looks very nice, but what's with the lighting in the first shot?Some shaders need tweaking.
Brain made the terrain model and core beam. <3That rockwall .md3 isn't quite textured as nicely as it should be. It was a quickie to see how .md3 terrain worked out. (so far its awsome)
hey yourface+brain, include all the smexy shaders for core beams and cool lighting in the blackout thingermabober so it shows up on radiant and mappers like me can steal it, thank youz.I believe that all the shaders and textures in blackout can be easily found and used, also the .map file is included so you can see how to use them. This new map is in no way related to blackout, however it may or may not use the amp entities.
Seriously though, PLEASE!

Plus, I may switch out those textures...
I wouldnt say that its just slightly ew, but isnt brain and face working on something similar?
those trees look like a shroom
Looks Odd How?
How would I make Patches "More Organic"?
You're using like 5 textures...
Not including models. I would work on improving your detail/texturing/brushwork, not just hoping models will beautify it.

Radioactive glow is rather soothing.
I hope the fps will be a bit higher than in "Insanity". Looks great though.Insanity's vis was a piece of shit. However, I am at a sort of mapping 'disadvantage' because since my system is rather powerful I don't have many FPS drops compared to other people. This sort of hides potential vis problems as I don't see the fps counter drop from my com_maxfps often.

You could pull up Virtualbox and see how fast it runs in there. They have working opengl support now. I played a session of Trem on a Virtualbox instance of Win7. FPS dropped about half.That doesn't simulate an NVIDIA Geforce 2.
your pipes in those pictures.... they're flat.Care to explain?

You said your gfx is too fast, I told you how to slow it down.. Or you could just use scrap parts of your old computers and build a crapchine to test low end configurations.
I like the hand drawn plan. :DHaha, yeah, that was my sketchup, Duck wanted to see, so I uploaded it lol
Why are all the best maps only made for amp?
guys, i cant be bothered to make a new thread, and i wanna show off some screens of my AMAZING map.
Umm basically i upgraded to vista, and the screenshots dont write to anywhere. When i hit f11, it just say "wrote to /screenshots/shot0000001" or something along those lines.
HALP MEH!
@Knowitall: Looks nice overall, although a bit too bland, I'd like to see some more variety in your texture usage.
exccelent brushwork, but the grey maps are grey (boring).

Screenshots are by default written to your /Application Data Tremulous folder, in /Application Data/Tremulous/base/screenshots but you could also just use a screen capture key shortcut, like Printscreen.
EDIT: @Winnie: I thought you meant maps which had been released, but in that case it just depends on who is making the maps. AMP doesn't do anything to change the looks in any of the pictures you've seen.

Run -> %APPDATA% ?
@Moose: I just mean that a lot of these purty maps are destined for AMP and not vanilla.And is that a bad thing?
In regards to my gray texture choice, someone rig up a HUD that puts a large transparent coloured square over screen. That'll solve things :D (Sepia Tone anyone?)There's one that features a "full screen boost bar" (which I hate).

I second that.
A modeler and a mapper? Well, well.
Lightmaps are just too low quality, and shadows are not calculated as well as they could be. You can fix this by splitting the surface this happens on between the light and dark areas.How do you mean?
Or by using angled brush joints...Yeah, on a psuedo curved roof? not likely gonna happen.

Finding textures for a brush made train is extremely difficult. I literally took me about an hour to find a dark cast iron texture.... If it were a model i could just find a single train texture and apply it.
Yes rep, I think i will use the red and yellow for a train station, hopefully there will be more textures available to use

And I don't mean you need 50 different textures, but the cylindrical part of the train should have a different texture than the conductor's room behind it, and the base underneath it. It's also a good idea to have the detailing be different too.

Does it still modify the alpha channel of the specular texture(nowadays called a specular map)?
I intend to make map that prefers “nonbattlesuits” and “nontyrants” but is fine for all other classes, making it easier for both teams to go out, the narrow and rather twinkled paths should discourage the use of flamers and lucis, but all this (and if it is useful) will be shown during gameplay tests, at this stage, I am still struggling to find enough time to actually map the whole thing ;)

Make the hanging lights out of brushes, or use patchshadows (not advised).
You can see quite clearly that they leak through and light up the entire ceiling. (IMO very cheesy looking.)
By the way, you should try using models, they are great for spicing up a map.
Various models/textures for xreal-based projects:
Just test scenes, lighting/geometry are not final.
It depresses me to see your work and know it's not for trem :-\They are assets that could be used to port trem to a somewhat less dated engine (i.e. XreaL). It's not like TRaK has implemented an anti-trem DRM scheme...
fact: Trak is plotting against trem. He posted untrem screenshots in trem!

Two things. First of all, this is development shots, but if it's going to be much nicer in a few days, coudn't you just have waited to show us then?
And second I'm not seeing a lot in the way of 3 point clipping, stuff like that that really steps maps up a level. If you want to make a highly detailed room you will need to take advantage of these techniques.
Looks very interesting so far, a nice start.
I don't see why you work on 1 day maps when you can do this
That entire room uses 3 point clipping the whole way around...
The map will be made using entirely standard trem textures too.
Just think, without gray, the world would be a very colorful place.
We could also use more FALCON PAWNCH (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lly6rCcp09E) color.Just think, without gray, the world would be a very colorful place.
Funny. I think grays (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0fHJqBvGpg&fmt=18) are what make the world so colorful (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6LkR2R-Uug&fmt=18). Of course moderation is a must, as with everything else. :P
First picture is very nice, better with out the fog for sure.
The second one is a bit.. yech though.
I don't know what purpose you could think of to stick floating bright blue squares in your map, but it looks very not appealing to me. And secondly, you should trim, or adjust the texture on the wall in the top right in your second (different room) picture, it looks rather cut off as is.
The additional lighting around the top and bottom of the central column-thing looks good, I'm not entirely sure about the green band running around the middle though.
Since you claim to be making the "most detailed map trem has ever seen," I feel that I have the right to critique it... rougher than usual. Firstly, if you are going for "the most detailed map trem has ever seen," you have a serious lack of details.

Well this thread is titled random DEV shots isnt it? Please critique what has been devloped as opposed to what has not. The map is still being developed hence why im asking for tips to make it look nicer :)

It's fine. I just can't stand people who have such enormous egos. Hendrich's right, keep up the good work, and just don't set huge, egotistical goals. ;)
But why waste my time on a map that will in all likliness rarely get played like other custom maps? Out of the 160 servers shown, 13 had customs maps, with a total of 8 players on them. May as well make it for fun. Thanks for tips all, ill try and work on the texturing and making some more natural lighting rather than blue/green :) Btw I have only made 1 room and 1 'hall', so i will try to break it up over the course of the mapPatience. You have some good stuff there and players remember the good stuff. 1.2 will solve the download problem.

You could get some spark-like particle effects (don't ask me how to write them >_>) and toss them on or around those rings.
In the first screenshot, are those beams going across the open roof wallwalkable?

Looks, great, the brushwork and stucture are amazing. But you texturing is lacking, you really need to get some colour in there. And by colour i dont mean bright pinks and reds, i just mean other colours than grey. It looks thoroughly monotone and thus dull.
I cant really give advice on how to do this, as its a vast job, and its kinda of a skill to mix textures which arent of the same colour.

Seeing as i cant post ingame shots, im gonna do the taboo GTKradiant shot. A map im currently deving and hoping to finish, however, ive ran into a few problems. My simple patch meshes allow buildings to fall through them :S If anyone could help?That happens sometimes. Just treat the patch meshes like models, and clip them with some caulk brushes.
Like the concept :P?
[img]http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k320/amz181/disco.jpg[img]
Its not finished but i needed to sort out this patch mesh problem. You see that out of place tremor texture? The curving counter(out of place brown) next to it is an example of where buildings fall through, if i build ontop of the counter the building will fall through onto the floor below.
The same is true for any other patch meshes ive used on the floor, e.g below the curving silver railing, there is a patch mesh, buildings sink through that.
What seems to be the the problem with taking screenshots? Are you using the Print Screen key or a bind?
im pretty much a nub in radiant. Could you pwetty pwease gimme a step by step?It's pretty simple, really. Just fill in your patch-mesh areas with caulk brushes. It doesn't have to be perfectly aligned.
Amz: If screenshots in trem are not working, than use a screen capture, either your OS's default key-shortcut, or some external program.Fraps, x-Fire and Steam are all good alternatives to in-engine or OS screen capturing.
Try switching to grid256 and hitting ctrl+G with your satellite selected. This will fix everything. Otherwise, you should really make that into a model.lolololol You mean Grid0.125? Cuz with Grid256 it will just break or disappear. But even with the smallest grid, you might need to be careful, or do it part by part, and make sure all brushes are fine (no missing vertices) after it.
nubcake, change some of the map geometry to fix those ugly shadows on the ground. I suppose patches don't cast shadows, so it's only those brushes on the patches that do (and it's hideous).

Are Taiyo and I the only people making maps?? I would love to see more dev shots :D
Too clean... I expected dust and blood covered floors
And its A-Ehm-Zed ill have you know.Alphabet fail! D:
This is a pretty basic thing, but a lot of mappers seem to forget about things like this. Your fence just goes up until it meets with the ceiling, and down to the floor. Instead, have a metal beam be covering the area where it meets the surfaces, because otherwise it looks really unrealistic and bad. When you have a nice brush that follows the fence along the floor or ceiling it will be much nicer.Except one case - fence can be not connected to top and bottom beams... =)
FINALLY A DIFFERENT TEXTURE SET!Its already was used for trem maps. Its was used so rarely just cauz it dsnt really fit tremulous theme. =)

Getting other textures in your map = HASSLES, thus people are lazy and just re-use textures.
I'm a mapper, so I count as a person with an opinion, right? Don't answer that. No, shut up. Don't answer that. Stop your chuckling, STOP YOUR CHUCKLING. I COUNT AS A PERSON.

@ Other malinformed nerds: Shut up
Looks like you regenerated models from the texture heightmaps, looks pretty neat. You might want to run over a light specular shader in very subtle form and fix up the lighting. Looks great, keep it up :>
@ Other malinformed nerds: Shut upLooks like he just did the height manually. If there was a way to generate geometry from a heightmap, I would like to know as soon as possible.

IMO it is photoshocked
Lighting is executed brilliantly, but some coloured lighting on the walls wouldnt go amiss. (low value lighting)
You also may want to use the Surface Inspector to rotate and move a lot of those textures, especially around the core (bottom, middle, and top parts). Also, as amz said, you may want to make the lights different colored, white lights on gray is boring. Try light green or blue.I’ve had a shot at rotating the textures on the core but they never seem to line up. I suspect it’s because the problem-surfaces are 3-point-clipped, I can’t get my head around how textures are mapped in these situations.
Much better, looks awesome.I'd only change the stairs.
what stairs? if you mean the LADDER, then i'd agree, ladders ive been on, are generally alot more cylindrical.
I'd have to disagree with lowering the value of the white lights against the walls. I think that the slightly stark contrast is good and that lowering the value might leave it looking rather washed-out.
Click image for larger version.I want your babies.
In this thread: one or two people actually contributing, 10 people criticizing.
Double P.s if you want your maps to be played, UrT LOVE custom maps, I would recommend porting once you have finished it for trem.
What do people expect by posting their WIPs here? People post their dev shots here because, a) they want to show off their work to the community, and b) see what the community thinks about their work.
I always thought you were egotistical, but posting your pictures for the sole purpose of showing how oh-so-wonderful you are, and not to take criticism is ridiculous.
Many people gave Draeke good advice that will help make his map better, and judging from his progress, it definitely has helped him.
Nice, although that little red light looks a bit out-of-place to me.
why is there a random lickle red light?
Looks too much like a fan for a pc case to me. Especially the three bars/structures holding the center piece of it.

Maybe the map takes place inside a computer? Did you ever think of that? No, so don't be so critical.

You aren't _meant_ to be making trem maps? Uh, what... I fail to see the logic.
Are the fish animated? :)
not bad, althought that texture on the left is waaaaaaay stretched out....+1
Nubcake, thate actually looks wonderful!
Expose more of the map to the water like the first screen (if you havent done so already), because it looks absolutely AMAZING.
Is the church kinda thing accessible? If so, having the stain glass as a patch mesh, which on the outside is stain glass, then add another mesh(orbrush), on the inside which is glass, just an idea. (or get a proper stain glass shader, if its possible :P)
For the water exposure comment, im thinking aquarium. (in structure)
really looks mazing nubcake.
What are those arms, exactly?
Kraken went to church.
Try an concentrate on gameplay aswell nubcake. No offence to you, but though your maps are usually smexy, you usually dont think about gameplay that much :PThats true. This time around ive developed the map first, then the scenery 2ndary

Nope, because the textures havent been image dumped, they were recreated by pixel artistsHow does that make a difference if they are pixel-for-pixel recreations?

Laser turrets from the '50s...
Updated it last night. I really like the fallout-ish theme... The 1950s dam covering the old nuclear silo. Humans find it as there last hope of defeating the aliens, working feverishly to get it working again
Getting back into the mapping groove, hmmph.

Besides, i'm focusing more on gameplay, rather than textures. That's the most essential, ain't it? :)

(generator pic)take 2Nice. But I'd suggest that you place like 10 point lights around the central thingy of the generator so that it appears that the light is bleeding onto the shaft of the generator. Right now, it looks a bit weird. The concept is: "Here, it's full bright!" But it looks a bit like a whole different texture. If the light were bleeding a bit onto the shaft, this would look much better I think.

The floor is also that shiny shader by Ingar so it's somewhat reflective.
You're right, but it does somewhat give the impression of being reflective. :pThe floor is also that shiny shader by Ingar so it's somewhat reflective.

knowitall66: I like the hard landing WIP, and the bsuit production room is an interesting concept and the area is gaining detail nicely. I hope the lightening effects turn out well as it'll be good to see animated lightmaps used for something other than flickering lights.

Looks very cool but... what is it? ???

Ice cream.
Looks very cool but... what is it? ???Originally I was going to build an entire map around that structure. Basically players would navigate the structure via walkways and jump pads connected to its side. I didn't like the idea in the end so I never finished it. The structure itself was designed to be overwhelmingly large, so I guess it could be something along the lines of a shrine or a cultural icon.
Draeke: that looks pretty nice... and unusual ??? Could use some sort of background tho. If the angles are <= 45 degrees then you could make it into a jump puzzle :oYeah I was definately going for a unique feel. Funnily enough, trying to wall-jump to the top as mara was one of the first things I did after getting the main geometry done (the whole structure is walkable/wall-jumpable besides the top bit).
The map is called Antares.Lol, that was the name of my map! I was doing it like a year ago, though stopped due to lack of inspiration and bla bla bla. IIRC it was a some big star or something

Not too bad but it would look better if that texture on the piece you're looking at in the first shot was straight.Mhm. Far as I know, there's a button for texture lock. Make your piece straight, click that, then rotate it.

Just choose one face and play with 'angle', Firstinaction.
sooo i wanted to make a spaceship-like map... so i made some concept, what do you guys think? other than touching up the lighting since it was kinda messed up.there are lighting, and texture stretching and resolution problems, but other than that, I think you've got a pretty original look to those shots.

2. Wall guideway hole
3. Small space for bottom side of door. Germetic lock? )

as soon as i used that texture set everyone started playing with it :PYou gonna laugh... But im using that one too, lol. Gloom texture set (some parts of it) fits that new texture set very much.
that looks really nice, though I can see some areas that could use quite a bit of work texture-wise. :DThanks. Like the lighting is dark around the map(ON PC). When I exported it from PC to a mac it made it full bright in-game. I really dont know what the problem is. Last time I had to apply ingars packege to net radiant, and it worked. Now I dosn't work.
also, what's with the lighting? it's fullbright. you need to learn how to make detail and structural brushes.

i'm a joker CATAHA :P i didn't mean it.
and there are two different themes to the map, the bridge seperates the open factory area and the small maintenance halls

maintenance halls
O.K Imported back on PC and then exported to tremulous on my mac for better quality. Here is my map COLINARY -Mass corporations. About 82% done. Im trying to get help with some of the advanced parts(FOG/particles/ etc) Now With better lighting this time. On the video I had exported the map from my PC to another mac somewhere else that I compiled out of Net radiant so The light was just retarded.(http://dtrem.com/files/picture4rs.jpg)
Please feel free to post feedback.

I need to know but Does this map have potential?

I need to know but Does this map have potential?It does, it needs some extra work but it does. I like blue and grey so I won't comment on that.
Thanks. And You can say that Ramp leading all the way up to the top is just a concept of what I will put.I need to know but Does this map have potential?It does, it needs some extra work but it does. I like blue and grey so I won't comment on that.
imho, the thing that needs work is the ramp in the second screenshot. It feels like a boxmap
ramp and if you make it look 'believable' it would greatly enhance the room.
Thank you Creature and sorry cecil. Or swamp. Or swamp-cecil.Isn't that a Halo map?

i removed the "Fucking"
Oh yea that map(Sword base) Yea I had an area that resembled that map on the side of my map colinary then I just decided too just delete it because there was no point too it. And it was too big. AHHAHAH what a coincident.Thank you Creature and sorry cecil. Or swamp. Or swamp-cecil.Isn't that a Halo map?

Reminded me of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-Otpi5K1-0) map but contrary to my memory they're very different.
Make a simple axis aligned box/cube shaped brush as part of that door entity covered with origin texture, with the center of it on the line around which you want it to rotate (same as defining that point with origin key). Then just choose the right axis for rotation in Entities window (if not Z), enter the rotatorAngle etc.
textures/common/origin
{
qer_nocarve
surfaceparm nodraw
surfaceparm nolightmap
surfaceparm nonsolid
surfaceparm trans
surfaceparm origin
}What "seethrough origin brush"?
Yes.
Put the origin brush where you want the hinge.
Can this topic be sticky? =}
I like what you've done with the place. :)
Nice work. Is it all the same map, or is the last one a different one? If so, that sci-fi blue-ish texture above the doorway looks a bit out of place.
Ah ok, then I think the wooden planks look a bit out of place. Other than that it looks great! If you wanted me to get really picky, the tiles merging with the sci fi floor texture looks weird too. :D
OK nubcake. THat is badass. I didnt know you had it in you...

good work Catha!
Here goes my new map im working on. There is only 1 room and two corridor bits at the moment. It is going to be called Terminal or TheTerminal because it is based on a modern day airport. I have attachted them as I do not know how to put the images in normally. (id appreciate it if someone posted how! xD)

Please refrain from posts like this. Public message to everyone. For one thing, if all you could be bothered to type is two characters, don't make the post, it's stupid. But vague criticisms can do no good while possibly making people less likely interested in sharing their work. If something was obviously made with no effort or thought and you don't like something, you can tell them that, but try to be polite, and anything specific is infinitely more useful. There are plenty of places to diss people out, but I'd prefer if this wasn't it. Besides, no one is free from criticism, and that includes you.
As for swamp cecil, "this" posts are probably one of the stupidest things to say, but at least he gave a specific problem he had with the picture.
Harumph.
ewthis
the problem is its too plain and the sudden texture change from gray to red is ugly.
As you can see there is part of the giant rocket/missile in the center. Something went wrong with the origin brush in the func_train and so it spawned at 0,0,0.
Hmm, quite nice. Looks like you have decided to get some more color into the map :).I used light entities. How do I do light shaders
On the screenshots it looks a bit dark, but I can't say if that's good or bad right now. Btw, are you still using light entities to light the map or do you use light shaders?
I'm already curious on how this map is going to look like a whole.
Compact
A ship drop zone construction complex.
Its 90% done...
Torture room? They'd better not be torturing grangers there.Oh dear, that's a brilliant - though rather cruel - idea for a map, actually.
WANT!
Commission bay
An Intergalactic space station orbiting earth containing over 64,000 residents
only 15% done
Inspired by spacetracks, and dead space 2
It is quite fortunate I still have station15's .map files, no? (I keep many backups.)
Hmmm. There's a spacetracks_beta1.map in this directory too. Curious...

Make it yerself!
Kidding. Mostly.

wow what what.
Supertanker's going to make new beta of Station 15? :o
I'll be gladly want see it to released, only problem is that I need to wait... :-\It is quite fortunate I still have station15's .map files, no? (I keep many backups.)

You're going to finish them, yes? ;)
Ill probably release it on trem 2.0... why are you guys on this forums if it is a 'dead game'?The forums aren't dead and are sometimes fun.

lets face it, they kind of are.
Im making a machine city... these shots are about 3 month old now, but i dont want to give anything away until releaseSee the map to completion pls :)
*PICS*
Sometimes, I feel like a genuis...
For a map as nice looking as that, that name doesn't sound good at all! Some people suffer from naming bad maps too epicly, but you are suffering from naming something too epic badly. ???????????It's not entirely too late for a better name, so if you have an idea, tell me! On the other hand, niveus reminds me of a hand cream brand and atcs isn't even a valid word. And for those whose first language isn't english, the word tremulous sounds a bit strange, too. So I guess choosing a bad name is a formula for success here! :D
i am not a total poohead so i won't forget to say that it looks nice too.
i apologize for falsifying other people's comments and shoving my irrelevant bullshit here.
tremulous sounds a bit strangeWho agrees that 'tremulous' [the game] does not give a 'tremulous' feeling.
Then you better not test the BETA RELEASE (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=16797.0). :)i apologize for falsifying other people's comments and shoving my irrelevant bullshit here.
the map looks like shit, btw.the sole purpose of the above statement is to troll a troll (your_face). in actuality, i make no REAL(TM) statement about the looks of the map.
Ok, now have a look at my crapmap. Its pretty much an atcs clone, but.. just on an asteroid.

Someone did a 3d terrain test in the past in like 2007-8 which clearly wasn't made on gtk radiant. Maybe this guy did a similar thing.Ok, now have a look at my crapmap. Its pretty much an atcs clone, but.. just on an asteroid.

That does like interesting ;D How did you do the terrain? 3D model?
ViruS: Do /com_maxfps NUMBER to increase ur fps. i did /com_maxfps 200 (i think higher values cause troubles with connection ingame).I ain't dumb. I meant the actual computer cannot render higher than 70 staring at a wall. Normal gameplay is around 40-50 on this 'new' computer.
What the hell I am looking. Too good to be true. :oHell yes, this map looks tremendous. Trem models will look so outdated in this map! Great work!
I don't think I've seen shafts of light like that in other trem maps, am I just blind or is it a fancy underused feature?Insanity by Odin. But no one plays it because it's too laggy for most people. :(
(Where are all these randomly epic map makers coming from?????)
One new shot from hive (Alien Base).
i miss posting
in this thread :(
i am sad.
gosh i hate reading my old posts
lol hey mooseberry!!!
remember when we were the new mods come to bring back order and justice :police: seems like last month.
GPP map pack..DISQUALIFIED.
I CAN LEAVE YOUR CRAPPY CLAN WHEN IT DOESNT EXIST ANYMORE.
as seen by earlier mapping contests, the public is retarded and doesn't know what a good map is or how to appreciate it. only people like lava croft can properly evaluate a map. :police: SRSLY.What if the public acted as one of the judges? And non-biased experienced mappers were the other judges? Btw, where are these judges?
how about we can use our rooms in competition map?
how about we can use our rooms in competition map?I will pm timbo and ask him. I'm sure he'll reply.
lolol yeah i like that idea. it sounds good sparky. and maybe we could ask like dracone or celestial rage or some ppl also. they seem to know whats up when it comes to maps and stuff.
WHY WOULD ANYONE STILL POST ON THIS FORUM*posts on forum*
Loki, look within for the answer to that question.WHY WOULD ANYONE STILL POST ON THIS FORUM*posts on forum*
I am confused. Is moose an entrant now? Or a judge?
NO CONGRATULATIONS WHATSOEVER I AM GOING TO SUICIDE :human: :turret:Wait Loki! Happy Two Days Before Your Birthday Loki :D !!!

makes me want to practice mapping again :(
what why final??Why indeed.
also hey whats up!Not much. I tried the Star Wars: Battlefront beta, it was rather underwhelming.
p.p.p.s. why you still using gtkradiant :police:
Also ingar isn't allowed to judge, i stole all of his textures.
