Well I'm in calgary for the weekend.. I was pretty bored last night, so I quickly whipped together a level for fun. Perhaps somebody will get more use out of this so I'm donating it. Yay.




Get the level and stuff here:

Thanks for the level...I have been needing to build something similar to this but have been too busy and lazy! Thanks bro I needed a helping hand! I will modify this to my needs and post shots later on my Ancient Ruins thread thats in showcase 1. GS out.

Well done!!
Looks Pretty good, allthought you used the Standart Textures.

Ok after making some modifications and doing some texture work, here is my version....I will use this for one of the areas inside a huge Library. This is early with simple lighting and no torches...Just wanna get a little feedback on the textures so far...GS out.

The brick to cement transition is a little heavy. looks like it doesn't belong. But its your call man.

I know it sounds crazy but seems like to me the floor is using a texture from one of the texture packs from the Total Textures from 3dtotal.com. Looks exactly like it since I own the pack. Which is nothing bad of course but just wondering if my eyes are picking up on such detail. Since it looks very similar.

!!!!!bumpmapping!!!!!!

would be a wonderful improvement...

and scale down the brick texture to achieve sharper, better-looking walls.
take care of the seems along the ceiling.

ntw, i gonna use this level in one of my fzrther projects. i hope nobody´d mind if i´d use it in a commercial game.

This is what can be done with a little imagination, texturing and lighting

1.) I removed some things that I thought inconsistent with the level, i.e., crossbars in the arches.

2.) Retextured and relit.

Darker I know, but the level called out for it. Removed and replace the torches with models (that I created) and toned down the particle effects abit. Tell me what you think?

@ bloodred: Nice contribution! Nice geometry! Only the lighting looks strange: green for torchs and the rest cold bluish is a wierd combination, and too bright at the walls where no torchs are!

@ Gamesaint: The bricks in the arches should be scaled down, maybe they work for the columns, too. I see that you removed the blocky 'paths' at the bottom, a good decision, because it probably let the entities stuck many times.

@ frozenbaby: Your lighting is indeed an improvement.

Hey, this arch room really came in handy.

I just knocked out the end walls in it and added some dynamic lights to the fire lights.

It is now a big long hallway!

I then flooded it out with water, as this is a swimming scene. Also, added lots of dark fog to help the frame rate.

Anyways thanks!
