Released Verschneit (Idyllic Snowy Village)

[Szico VII]

Originally posted a start to this map a while back, but have now started the project up again! This map is called Verschneit/BlueIce Village (going to make a tie-in with Twilight hopefully) Verschneit means snow covered, and the name comes from the Medal of Honor map of the same name, as does the original inspiration for this map!

 

As it stands it's around 40% complete in terms of brushwork and structure, and I haven't looked into interactivity much yet, that'll come later. It's going to be a medium-large sized map with indoor and outdoor areas

Ouch. Right it my lack of mapping skills.

I think I may have stumbled upon this somewhere, a long time ago. :blink:

This sir, is awesome-tastic. I really love the atmosphere you've put into the place!

[Azatha]

I am excited!

Indeed you did - ironic flashback coming up...

"I'd be more enthusiastic about finishing if the only remaining high profile place to get it reviewed wasnt full of holes and bugs"

"Well, maybe JKHub can remedy that once it's open."

[Szico VII]

Cheers bud. Is a heart too friendly? ;p

......yes. ;D

That is one awesome looking Villiage, good to see a bit of an extension from Blue Ice Twilight.

 

Very easy on the eyes, indeed.

 

Great job so far!

[Szico VII]

I guess it is a bit like twilight, never saw it as an extension to that until now

[Turquoise Dragon]

Ooooh....It's because of beauties like this that I'll never say I'm an expert mapper. Sweet job so far.

Slight progress:

[The One and Only]

I don't remember if I already asked, but how closely does this resemble the layout of the original? Verschneit was probably my favourite MoH:AA map.

[CaptainChar]

I remember when you first posted screens of this map

[Sentra]

Oh. My. God. NORMAL AND REAL SNOW IN JA!!!111

I love this map!

[Szico VII]

I remember when you first posted screens of this map

 

Then you must be bloody old...

 

I don't remember if I already asked, but how closely does this resemble the layout of the original? Verschneit was probably my favourite MoH:AA map.

 

The basic layout is almost identical - with some minor differences in size and spacing.

 

Some more update:

[CaptainChar]

szico, you single handly could have designed the towns in the fable series

[Szico VII]

I must play this 'fable' game...

 

[CaptainChar]

following with szico's tradition, will there be an easter egg hunt so to speak?

[Szico VII]

Question: will it have building interiors as well? Interiors are cool.

 

Anywhere you see a glowy yellow door, there will be an interior

 

following with szico's tradition, will there be an easter egg hunt so to speak?

 

Probably..but need to finish the structure first

Updates:

[MUG]

Looking very awesome.

 

Semi related question: did you make your own textures for this? Or do you use existing ones/modify existing images?

[Szico VII]

All the textures (even the caulk shader would you believe it ) are custom - some I made, some are from texture sites, one or two are from MOHAA.

Please stop, it's so beautiful it makes me never want to attempt to make a map again.

[Szico VII]

NEVA!
