yeah used a bit of phong shading in my gloom_b2 map, really smoothes out the blockiness of the walls don't it?

Very nice. But i wonder how bright is the end result because i do like the brightness of the screenshots. Neither too dark nor too bright

Indeed, phong shadding actually only makes the shadows as they were on a curve, but the profile of a brush still IS a brush.

So, if I get this right, it is a feature that you can only spot when looking closely, much like the obsolete normal mapping. I would like to see sshots that show the differences between phong-shaded and non-phong-shaded.
Would you be so kind?

Thx for your comments so far, I see you like it.
You will get a lot of nice stuff in the map, just wait for more screenshots ;).
The biggest problem i have at the moment ist, how I will handle with jetpackers, flying at top of the canyon. Don't have a solution for them now, but I'll stick on it :)

stop posting gamma 1.0 sshots
yesterday, when tremulous crashed and left me with a gamma of 1.7
they looked good but today they are dark again

so what about setting gamma before posting it (Gimp-Layer-Colors-Levels-middle slider)

I sure hope the map looks more like DASPRID's screenshot than vcxzet's screenshot.

I really like DASPRID's brightness.

Gamma 1.0 is the only real good look.
By the way, I always compile the map with -gamma 2 and -compensate 4

I am not talking about your maps compilation parameters
just the gamma of your screenshots

I never play with gamma over 1.0, so why should I make screenshots with those ugly settings?

If you want to know, how ugly you can make the map with your settings, open the screenshots in an image viewer and set up the gamma.

Edit
By the way, the map has a name now: Ancient Remains

nah, some people just can't grasp the concept of non full bright maps that belong more to deathmatch than games like trem

Well you will get a special version of the map: all textures exchanged with a pure white texture.

Mappers make maps based on gamma 1.0, live with it. Same way q3mappers don't make maps for picmic 5 but for picmic 1.
