StarGateCommand (SGC)

update!
I'm truly sorry to dissapont all of you guys...
gtkradiant has ****ed up again and lost almost every thing of my map... the .map file is still 436 kb but when i open it its completly empty so unless you people know how to fix this run time error which i got before the damage was done. i will postphone this and other projects for the time being to recover from this psygological meltdown... (unless you people can get me back up for it or want to take over)
the only luck ive got till now is that i still got the v1 version which was about 1/2 of the size...

Spoiler!

After some time i have decided to pick up the mapping thing again (after failing at 3 maps in a row which i didn't release because of the bugs. (dhu, they failed...)).

Any way.

The map will be named: StarGateCommand (SGC) ((after the stargate series)).
Main purpose: play Attack and Defend (A&D) through the stargate, and tdm-e.
Current status:
- It's not jet the final release so expect some small changes in the future (will be posted here until finish).
- Not one fishy bug (yet).
- things to do: add more detail, some more / other lighting since i don’t 100% like it.
- adding more LARGE spaces as more or less requested (still considering if it stays in or it will be for the deathmatch mode only )

Pictures SGC-V2 (and yes i know it only half of the map but it makes it a lot easyer and faster to build):

changed compared to V1:
- made the white lights yellow.
- made the lights less bright.
- added one extra layer.

Spoiler!

Thanks in advance.

Greetings.

Nice Map Bro, Btw 1ST Poster.
How'd U make IT lol.

I like it the stargaze looks really good. Only problem I see is the wall texture makes it a little dull it misses some variation. Overall I think it's a good job.

I<3 The Portal :D

I guess your referring to the whole map. To be honest i dont know exactly how, but i did it after quite some time, and changing alot of stuff.

WoW! Great job.

First map in this community where my first thought wasn't negative about except for asylum :)

Doing a quite good job, looks decent in my eyes for an AnD.

Also your texture in it is quite well it all fits and such, you have some nice details in it.

Only thing for you to improve is your lightning, you're using it quite well but some things:

-White light is barely good, use soft yellow.
-Light spots on walls are looking a bit weird, there is no lamp but there is light? You probably put them there just to make it look lighter, but think of somethings (first screenshot)
-The hall looks a bit weird with lightning to.

Like this (See difference).

I think the map is a little bit to small for dueling in AnD Trow a 1 hit K.O nade in the hall and everyone died o.o

Other than this, this map is actually pretty perfect.

Thanks for the positive and detailed reaction.

i wasn't completly satisfied with the lights as wel but didnt exactly know what to do about it. but now i know and ill look into it.
- white lights get yellow tints
- making them less bright (less then 5000 ;P )

lol i see it (second picturue/first ingamepic).. for got some thing (red light) there 0.0 minor bug xD
and the white light on the wall still need some worklight like thing to be build there, or ill just remove the lights.

mmm about the hall.. that is a hard one since the stargate emits loads of light (seen the stargate series?), or i remeber it wrong ofcourse.

naja ill be working on it fore the time being.
when im done/think im done ill pm the .mrs to you if thats ok with you?

That SGC looks awesome, nice job

Sure do though I only work with unity and unreal development kit so you might wonna send some software with it as well :)

are there any options for directional / omni? and what about the depth settings try that :)

Thanks for accepting the comment, most people hate me for it :)

That's because you post your comments in kind of mean way. Sure you can say something sucks or is bad, but you're usually also making the person look like a fool etc. ( not in this topic tho ).

On topic; awesome map, it looks very good. Perhaps it would look better if it was a bit darker tho ( not sure :P )

thanks for the reply.
it's like i said in the beginning; im not 100%satisfied with the lighting. In previous replies i said that i wil chance it in the future and re post it here.

would be cool if ya could go in the portal and end up in a small map where you can have a kewl duel map

I make people look like a fool if they disrespect me in the first place, I always am fair in my comments in the first way unless its ridiculous or I just dislike the ego of the person.

im verry sorry ot dissapont you :(

it's taking more time than expected since it's harder than i thought (we want yellow not green glows).

also im kind of buzy with school... some bad ass tests are comming up :'( and i dont want to fail on them ;P
and dont even mention all the other things i wanted to do 0.0" like a making a mapping tut and fixing my other maps (3 of em)... playing crysis 2 , bullet storm , gunz , A.V.A. Supcom:fa , Sins of a Solarempire watching movies and anime series and so on....

but ill post some where today or tomorow what ive got sofar (only the lighting).

updated.

check first post for changes.

will contine every now and then to work on it

Nice i love it :]. nice lights but in the first pic you should stretch the wall texture some more.

I'm truly sorry to dissapont all of you guys...
gtkradiant has ****ed up again and lost almost every thing of my map... the .map file is still 436 kb but when i open it its completly empty so unless you people know how to fix this run time error which i got before the damage was done. i will postphone this and other projects for the time being to recover from this psygological meltdown... (unless you people can get me back up for it or want to take over)
the only luck ive got till now is that i still got the v1 version which was about 1/2 of the size...

Naice one silentsoul!!

Why don't we work on the map together, this map could work for gunz so I'd say don't give this one up, show the noobs around here what level design is.
