wedge2211 Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Is that supposed to be the bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Business_Eskimo Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 yeah. does it look that bad? I haven't done a lot of the textures on the chairs and such, but I think it resembles it... (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lassev Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 A couple of things: you should make it more crowded, that is, put more stuff in, or make the room smaller. Space crafts don't have too much extra space. And use a lot more curves. To be honest, I don't think that your bridge is yet 50% finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a Star Trek fan, but I've seen the bridge in one or two of their movies and I don't remember any corners. I think that whole room is curved and round-like, not square.

Smood Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 You definately need to tighten up that bridge. I'm an avid star trek fan and can tell you that your work definately has potential. Tighten up the bridge, and raise the back control station (bench like area) up, and integrate it into a long curve that wraps around the captain's chair.

Leslie Judge Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Smood: thanks for sharing your opinion. Now take your time and have a look on the job Eldritch did with the Hogwarts map. Do you like HP or not that map is a very good one. So please... this is a mapping forum, make comments on maps only. Mostly. (Why do you Aru have to change your name time to time? I was close to get to know it... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldritch Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Originally posted by Smood Harry potter is homosexual. Terrible book, movie, iam disguested with the fact that it is compared to LOTR in its fantasy quality. HARRY POTTER IS PATHETIC! I'd rather watch the mysterious wizard adventures of barney. Wands are for little girls that.. ok fine so they have the right intrument for potter but still... Well, you're certainly entitled to your opinion... but what's curious to me is that you've read the terrible book(s?) and watched the terrible movie. Very strange for someone who obviously does not like Harry Potter. And if you haven't read the books, or watched the movie... you have no idea what you're talking about, and your opinion is uneducated and discriminitory. Either way, I've reported the post. Sorry Leslie, but this will be the last name change. So just remember this one. And like Leslie said - try and keep the comments in here mapping related.

Business_Eskimo Posted April 8, 2003 Author Share Posted April 8, 2003 All right. Thanks for your input (except for the bit on Harry Potter, lol) I will be sure to make it tighten it up and add some curves. The reason why i haven't had too many curves are 1. I'm really bad at curves and 2. Framerate but, I guess I'll just try my best at 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A well built map will have good framerate, even if it uses curves almost exclusively (look at Wedge's Tal Erulanei map if you want proof). Just give it your best shot.

lassev Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 1. I'm really bad at curves The more you use them, the better you'll be, trust me. If you don't use them, you'll never learn, and the looser is your map, unfortunately. And they ain't hard to use, either. Bah, this is the permanent one. Until the next change, you mean.

Business_Eskimo Posted April 8, 2003 Author Share Posted April 8, 2003 Originally posted by Eldritch Curves really aren't much of a strain on framerate... with THAT in mind, I'm going to add a heck of a lot more curves into my map....

Business_Eskimo Posted April 8, 2003 Author Share Posted April 8, 2003 Oh, a quick question. Does anyone have a clue where I would send an email requesting if I can use some of the textures from Voyager: Elite Force. (Or whatever the Star Trek game is called based on the quake engine ) Some of those textures would be absolutely PERFECT in my map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge2211 Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Raven made EF, too. ask them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read the book (mistake), and the movie (bigger mistake), when I read the book I didn't know what it was so I read it. After I was done I spit on it. (NOTHING INAPPROPRIATE SO FAR TOONCES). Then I said, ok lets see what they do with the movie, that was a mistake, and I often refer to myself as... whoops thats too far.. anyhow movie was terrible. HARRY POTTER = .... ha ha toonces, nothing bad. Relax btw. I need to get back to work at jk2! I remember when I was on the team and TOONCES just came on.

Business_Eskimo Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Originally posted by Smood Just use it don't worry man . (DELETED HARRY POTTER ARGUMENT) Well, I would PREFER the stuff in my map to be at least mostly legal... But then again, no one would probably care. I mean, look at all the maps that have stuff that they didn't get the owners permission from. Like the Jedi Council map with the ep. 2 soundtrack.

Business_Eskimo Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 I just sent an email to Raven asking for permission for the textures. I hope they let me use them.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Business_Eskimo Posted April 12, 2003 Author Share Posted April 12, 2003 Ok, i almost have the curvey thing behind the captain's chair done. It just needs to be smoothed out a bit more. I'll have new screenshots up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
