Map Battle 40 - Atrium (stage 1)

[Zipfinator]

I actually think it looks alright in most spots. There's no way he'll have time to build every room, make custom textures and models for all of the merchandise and styles of the store and place it all perfectly without going way over the engines budgets.

If it wins and goes on to stage 2 though, there will be some trouble there when you're standing right next to it.

I don't think 11 days is enough to finish mine. No wait. I think I know what I'll do.

^ a reminder for all those confused about when battles start/end. Just remember this: map battles start the 1st of the month and runs for just over 3 weeks. (at least that's the schedule I try to maintain nowadays)

[The Doctor]

The deadline is clearly stated on the first page. Where is the confusion?

[Khaeotixs]

it was me being a div and mis-reading. have a screeny (pre-cubemap build)


And one from after...


no idea why it did that... any protips?

[evochinima]

What do you mean why it did that? The strange colors and odd lightning simply came from not building cubemaps.

[The Doctor]

Quick update on my progress. Everything is finished, I'm just tweaking the lighting now and adding some smaller details.

[Corigami]

Khaeotixs, before you build cubemaps a default cubemap is built from the skybox. The skybox is bright, so all the specular reflections were very bright for your textures. After you built the proper dark areas are being reflected, so everything looks darker. The lightning hasn't changed.

[Phott]

I'm wondering if it's worth continuing this because of all the amazing submissions I've seen. Damn!

[source-maps]

yo phott, its cool but it needs two things
-roof support
-color

[ErikKiller]

Well almost quit mine but then got a flash of an idea.

[The Doctor]

And I'm spent. These are FINAL.
