Map Battle 40 - Atrium (stage 1)

[Phott]

What a pain that must've been to do popcornjake, looks really good though.

[vcool]

I really liked the earlier dramatic shots, popcorn. Right now, while the geometry is sexy, the lighting could be better defined. Looks kinda uniform, like a clay render.

Final







Some shots of the side area I can't include

It's... It's... Beautiful...

IMUS: Mmmm sexy HDR. The fountain waterfall texture looks great. The whole map looks very well done.

popcornjake: As vcool said, the lighting could be better. Love the inclusion of the art, but it looks as though there should be spotlights for each painting.

[The Doctor]

How did you do the water fall on that fountain. It looks fantastic!

[Corigami]

It looks like a texture with a dudv map. Did you animate the texture? It wouldn't matter for screenshots, but in real time it probably looks strange if it didn't scroll.

[Vilham]

Wow. The entrys this month are fucking awesome. Some really nice lighting and brush work. Some of them don't even look like the source engine. Gunna be really really hard to vote this month.

[IMUS]

Made the fountain using the particle editor. Actually it looks worse than it does in-game, screen shots don't do it justice.

FINALS

Also; i don't know what's going on with that last shot; perhaps cubes are in the wrong place. Although, i do like the way the texture is looking.

[Khaeotixs]

thanks very much ^-^

i would re-up screenies, but i'm modding the map now into a bit of an SP fuckaround.

[Phott]

You don't have to write "crosshair 0", cl_drawhud 0 removes that too.
