Moonbase Labs

[Szico VII]

As suggested by @@Caelum and @@Pande, I started a moonbase. No prizes for guessing the inspiration this time I'm afraid.
Textures very WIP as is lighting (the ceiling especially)

And a vid:

Oi your images be broke <.<

 

Never mind, they appear to be fixed now.

 

Start of another shining example of your skills, and why I asked for your help on my little project.

Updates - Lighting and textures sorted:

Looks like Doom 3. I'm guessing that's your inspiration?

Uh-huh uh-huh yup yup

[Delmi]

Looks great! I can tell I'll enjoy this already

[Morabis]

Looks like Doom 3.

 

I had the same thought!

 

Looks nice Sir!

[CaptainChar]

never played the doom games, so it looks like a generic space station to me, but so far, I do like how it looks, Szico always seems to be a master when it comes to picking lighting for a map

[MagSul]

That's looking gorgeous already. I do wish that I were able to map to that standard, especially in such a short amount of time.

[therfiles]

Good work, as always!

[Akimoto]

It looks like something from Doom III.

Looking very nice.

[Szico VII]

Yeah, wall as previously said, I am using doom3 as a base

 

[Morabis]

Nice! Lighting really adds a unique atmosphere.

 

I guess that's not a reelo chair but a custom model.

It actually should be a different model soon....I am now assisting him with new models for the map <.<

[Szico VII]

Which will make it even more win

 

[Morabis]

Wanna make it a duel map?

[Szico VII]

Why duel when you can make ffa?

[CrimsonStrife]

Which will make it even more win

 

That is assuming I can behave myself and not nuke anymore of the model files....finished the chair model btw, still needs mapping and texturing...but I'll leave this here since your afk.

Would be cool if you made this into another third party map for JKG. We have a gun which looks a lot like/is similar to the Doom 3 plasma cannon.

[CrimsonStrife]

I must ask. Original textures used by you. Do you make them? Or do you take some stock ones from different sources and make slight modifications? Do you collect from various games? Just curious as far as development goes. I find I don't have a lot of time for making textures.

I can answer that actually since I dunno when Szico will be online next (busy with Uni). Most of what your seeing here, at least as of now, is just modified base. As far as what his general method is, I know he makes some stuff, but you'd have to wait for him to get a better answer.

A developer video showing 10-20 minutes of straight work would be even more insightful of course.

I doubt he would mind doing that, but I dunno if his computer could handle running radiant and a decent screen recorder simultaneously (he has an old fossil) not to mention I dunno that he has the HDD space to make a video (he only has a 60gig HDD and its soo full I tried to have him dl a couple gig file the other day and there was no room) <.< However it is possible he and I could work something out where I could do the recording for him.

[Szico VII]

Most are baseJA (with shader changes) some are from old maps or made-new (atlantica, midgar) and a couple are from the Doom3 high-res texture pack.

 

Ive never been able to successfuly film radiant - if anyone can help by all means I could try.

 

[CrimsonStrife]

@@Szico VII I have some software that might be able to do it....I'll get a hold of you on MSN about it.

Solved, cause I'm a beast

[CaptainChar]

its nice to see space theme taking a liking again, im very impressed with how it looks, may I ask what resolution your JA is in Szico?
