Castle Hallway Set- First version

This is something I decided to work on a little bit then release to the community. Its nothing much done now, In the end I hope to include the fully textured version, along with rooms, entrances, throne rooms, etc. and models to accompany this. Basically, its something to do in my free time to get better. anyways, heres the first version, a total of about 4 hours of work. Hope its useful to some fantasy game designer out there. anyways, the file.

P.S. hosted by savefile.com is a warning- You have to go through a maze before theres a small print in the middle of the page that says 'download here'

Also, the reason (I forgot to mention this) for the so early version is so that people can tell me whats better, so if you're taking the time to download this, please, PLEASE, leave me a comment, even if it describes that this stinks worse than the deepest part of hell. Thanks!

Oh and this version is free. No credits or anything, however, the final version will need my names in the credits.

Hi Towelie,
They don't "stink" -- that is for sure. They are excellent. I like the modular way that you have made them, and the richness you achieved without being too expensive -- not too many blocks.
I have tried to think of how they might be improved. I think the area that is most in need of improvement is the ceiling. Fantasy castles (or real) don't use much of the flat ceilings. OK, yes, in upper rooms, you can assume a drop ceiling that is flat and decorated in various ways, if you like. And towers with curtain walls of stone and floors of wood can have flat ceilings all you want. Otherwise, I would look for vaulted or arched ceilings. Besides, the flat ceilings lack interest and variety. So, by all means, let some of your modular halls have flat ceilings if you wish, but you need other modules with vaults or arches.
Hope this helps. I like what I see, and can already visualize areas where I can use your work. Thanks for the contribution.
Best regards,

Nice contribution Towelie

Jim: Thanks! Yeah, ythe original design did include arched ceilings but I wasnt satisfied with them, and with 4 hours of work I was gettign impatient. I was ready for that one

Frazzle: Thanks!

I've started the textures. I'm just getting to know photoshop but for a first few textures (each taking about an hour, lol...) I think I did halfway good. I'll be redoign them until the whole things done. I want em to be good

ive already build a rather huge level with those. looks awesome. my textures blend perfectly with the level. added just lightning, looks very cool. i´ll post some screenshots when the level geometry is doen and i´ve added some enviroment.

basic shots without anythign yet, small tested. ignore the text below this is a test string i toook from the techdemo...

Are you planning on releasing the textures (The Wad)?

the wads i used are freely available...
test3.wad and stuff...

test3.wad? Where can i get this?

Use the Josef's Tear wad, that has some awesome textures for stuff like this, perfectly fitted.

Towelie, nice job on the set!

ill probably convert them to MDl, skin tham and release them here if you allow...
or maybe someone else skins them (thats the better version)
