Surman Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Thanks to Badakku I've been able to make all the floors in the death star reflective. Heres some shots so you can see for yourself (I know you've seen them before). Now a question for all of you. Sure this looks good but it does cause some slowdown, especially in detailed areas like hangars. Since it'll be you guys that actually play the level what would you prefer, attention to detail or a smooth running level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ten Tigers Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 I got a high end box, so Im screamin' for the reflective floor, and more attention to detail in general. Is this a single player "mod", or a whole new map you are making from scratch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedantic Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 I would say have some detailed areas, but overall optimize the level for performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniKorn Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Originally posted by Pedantic I would say have some detailed areas, but overall optimize the level for performance. I completely agree. Mapping is about finding a balance between eye candy and performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leagle Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 But this is a must. On a lvl like this you've just got to pay attention to all the detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodieman Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Put out 2 versions, Reflective surface and non-reflective surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbitäl Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 I fully support Brodiemans idea. ~Orb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__CKY__ Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 i agree also then if people are lookin for detail they got it and if their looking for not that much detail and better game playing dl the other one then noone can complain about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedantic Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Well, if you're going to do that, you'd best make a "medium" one, too, so people that want detail, but don't quite have the performance can get the best of both worlds, y'know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB_StormTrooper Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 That map looks like it will be ****ing sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB_StormTrooper Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Whats up? Is this map commin out or not? A little update would be nice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surman Posted May 16, 2002 Author Share Posted May 16, 2002 I may release what I've done, but the map won't be finished anytime soon, or maybe ever. From now on I'm too busy with work to edit, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedantic Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 Well, I guess I'm mostly speaking for myself on this one. My machine isn't exactly the best, nor is it the worst. I like the reflective floors, but I don't want a level that runs at 5 fps...well, that is a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
