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.

Beta testers.

Anti Gravity Lifts need more particles, or some kind of uplifting effect at any rate. Sure, it's not particularly realistic in terms of an "anti-gravity lift" would (theoretically) look like, but it makes a good visual aid to the player, clearly showing what it's for

r_speeds?

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.

Poor you.

That doesn't simulate an NVIDIA Geforce 2.

your pipes in those pictures.... they're flat.

Care to explain?

Moar detail Spork! Nice nevertheless.  

Shall we presume that the mist will damage players who fall?

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.

fix'd. I assume so because there doesn't seem to be any proof of players, especially humans, being able to get out of the bottom unless they can wall-crawl/pounce. Also it looks deep enough  so any normal jump wpuldn't be able to get back up.

Btw I hope that node and egg aren't there by default, seems like a bad idea to put two different spawns so close to each other, unless Spork intends on creating a "interesting" situation.

Sure:

No need to thank me, it was really nothing.

Just not a big fan of the whole shaderpipe thing.

[A Spork]

@ Hendrich/Demo: No, it wont kill them, there will be a way out, I just haven't gotten around to putting it in yet lol.
And no, the egg/node are not there for default, its just so that I can actually compile it atm.
Haven't done many other rooms yet


(Btw, click on picture for Photobucket page. Only 1 other screeny there atm, but yeah...)

[mooseberry]

The textures... o.o

[Demolution]

I like the hand drawn plan.

Slowing it down is not the same as having a Geforce 2 which does not have the capabilities of a Geforce 8800GTS.

Haha, yeah, that was my sketchup, Duck wanted to see, so I uploaded it lol

wat

(<3 boom aboos, shinytrem, superpie's hax, etc)

[Knowitall66]

We need some more images (Note images are jpegs at 90% quality (Halfs the size));

(Soz about the size _th aint working for these ones :S )


Excuse the missing texture, messed up texture pack. If you lurk around IRC you may have seen some of these.

[Demolution]

Release date?

[Knowitall66]

Excluding the last 2 they are all from different maps, plus some are just me screwing around. Release of 3rd one, 5th one and last 2 hopefully this year. 1,2,4 i may just release the .map for anyone to use.

[n.o.s.brain]

zomg awsum! I hadn't seen a few of the first 5 ones yet. <3 trak textures

[your face]

epic blastar

@k66, sweet, all of those using amp?

[mooseberry]

@Knowitall: Looks nice overall, although a bit too bland, I'd like to see some more variety in your texture usage.

[{7}wrath]

btw, you mispelled hangar.

[UniqPhoeniX]

Knowitall66: nice

[amz181]

exccelent brushwork, but the grey maps are grey (boring).

[Winnie the Pooh]

Why are all the best maps only made for amp?

[mooseberry]

Why are all the best maps only made for amp?

Hmm? As far as I know only like two maps have been made for amp, blackout (which is nice) and knowitall's map (which I've never played) so I'm not really sure what you're talking about.

Of course amp maps can have the potential to be much better than non amp maps, simply because you could make a really nice map without amp, and than if you added amp features in you could make it even more interesting.

But like I said, "all the best maps" seems kind of stupid considering only two maps have really been released.
