Tems Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Here are some semi-fresh shots of the map. most of the changes/additions are architectural. many more changes are still to come, but i thought id drop by with a brief update. -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheshireKat Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Very nice. Any idea on how many FPS your getting, and on what type of system? I'm only curios because of all those curves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tems Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 framerates are pretty good. r_speeds dont pass 8k last i checked. r_speeds are independant from system, but for framerates, ive got a 600EB P3 / 256 RDRAMM (yay rdramm) / GeForce 3 Ti 200. last i checked JK2 didnt support my dual proc setup, so i dont think that matters. not that it matters for framerates anyway i guess. hey, does jk2 support dual procs? didn't think so. -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUX Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 That is simply beautiful! Awesome work man! Easily the most anticipated file for JK2 at this point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toolboi Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 GREAT looking map, truely looks amazing. However, here are some things Id add (though they may encounter technical difficulties, I admit that I have not done much mapping): 1. Lots of repeating textures which, while not bad (look at the original game ), can detract a bit. Perhaps add some decals like cracks or other things. It will add to the size of the map, but Im sure most people can handel it 2.Ok, I may be talking out of my ass here, but where those pipes go it, would it hurt to make little indentations? Make it look a little like the earth has corroded around them? Just a thought. 3. Again this might be too much, but you seem to be using a single texture for almost everything. Perhaps some variety? I know, making textures is a ***** (one thing I hate most about doing 3d is getting textures. Its always such a pain in the ass to get them to work right), but it would add so much... atmosphere Again, it looks amazing, you have some AWSOME architecture going on there, and I cant wait to see it done. Now all we need are some good dueling maps...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tems Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 toolboi: this actually started as a duel map. in fact i made it in the first place because my friend said JK had a lack of duel maps. i know im using only a few textures. i will be adding decals. creating textures isnt a big deal for me and ill be making a few more, but mostly trim type stuff. tatooine simply is failr limited in appearance. things im doing to break up the monotony: -decals -standing condesers -wall hanging condensers (the things next to some peoples doors) -cargo -debris -pipes -equipment (maybe there just other forms of condensers that i keep seeing?) I'm also doing work with the architecture to accent the texture work. you can see some of this on the bridge in the last picture with the light edges. im modelling it as closely as i can to tatooine w/o ruining gameplay. ive got some time yet before its released anyway, so there are still many plans in the works. thanks for the feedback. as always its appreciated. -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreally_Rasty Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 nice map i think it would make a great dueling map, but it could be bigger then i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniKorn Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 It's not so good for duelling. Too big. But it is very good for ffa. Or 1v1 with weapons. UniKorn Project Lead / Mapper 4 Wired Lamp Studios http://www.wiredlampstudios.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tems Posted April 24, 2002 Author Share Posted April 24, 2002 certainly is too big for duel. i could fix that w/ another file, but then id have a fairly redundant pair of maps. -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheshireKat Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Very nice. I see you've gotten your lighting fixed too. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tems Posted April 24, 2002 Author Share Posted April 24, 2002 actually i havent gotten the lighting fixed. these are q3 shots. its a common problem tho so hopefully it will be fixed before too long -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShodiKGian Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Doesn't Tatooine have 2 suns? I don't remember for sure, but if you haven't already checked it out Tems, I just wanted to bring it up Awesome work again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripmage Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 wowsers, nice, r u still workin on that at-at map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tems Posted April 24, 2002 Author Share Posted April 24, 2002 Yeah i know about the 2 suns. If my skybox would decide to cooperate then itd be taken care of. For some reason my custom ut hasnt worked since i 'ported' the map from quake3. ive still got some shader work to do. Yes im still working on the ATAT. it's looking better than ever. Thanks for asking. it's looking like it may be the most detailed ATAT i've seen in a game, as far as the brush work. -Tems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'akt Sangwar Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 thanks for the needed fix of info tems keep the good work up i cant wait to see these maps, but i will cos i want them to be the best, dont rush, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
