Pizza, your map reminds me of this show I saw when I was little. There was a man and a cop stuck in a room with one locked door and a hallway with a slightly ajar door at the end. At the start of the hallway there was a think line. The mans worst nightmare was in the room at the end of the hallway and he was trying to get the cop into the room to appease the horror inside. Once something of interest went passed the line it was 'its'. Very creepy when the cop was strapped to a wheelchair and slowly being pulled down the hallway into the unknown.

Wow that show sounds awesome, any idea of the name?

EDIT: Half-way through 1984 now, loving it atm woop!

Looks good Pizzadox. Why are you running it in Windowed mode though? You can see the bar on the top of the pictures.

I believe the show was The Outer Limits, a science fiction/horror show running from the mid-90s to 2002. I looked for the show in the episode guide, but I couldn't find it.

Why does everyone assume that you need to do Room 101? Why doesn't somebody make the actual building?!

It seems people don't like to make large scenes like that... Usually I always end up doing a large outdoor scenes for some reason. Small rooms are easier to detail, you get more out of less time because instead of detailing 20000x20000 units you detail less than 1024x1024. Also many people probably thought the theme was Room 101 because that's what he talked about most in the opening post and a lot of people probably don't read every post in this thread.

Here is my WIP screenshot



Think of adding some bizzare models to sit on the benches, things like a pig that can has wings, a zombie in black and white, a robot. Becuse the only things that would fuck up my mind would be stuff that does not make sens in the our worlds laws of physics and chemical. Like that pig can not fly... yet.
Got pretty much inspiration from clowns (cuse I am very afraid of them), they do not make sens to me, a human should not be like that.
Enough bullshit now, God Bye

I must say I am disappointed with the amount of entries with a single room, and a bloody chair or something similar in the middle. The theme is Ministry of Love, not strictly Room 101. I wish I more time to enter, but remember guys, people vote for something original.

Plus the stock hl2 bloodstains look really bad nowadays.

I'm just going to flat out say what many are thinking. None of them are good. Well, Jang's isnt bad in quality, it just lacks interest. Everyone, get to detailing, be creative with lighting, be willing to experiment. I kindof would like to enter, but I'm a bit busy.

(my entry would have been a normal living room with a TV as its centerpiece, everyone's room 101)

Just if anyone hasn't read the book or seen the films, thought this might help:

[Holy Socks]

I think I'm going to enter this one, hopefully I'll be able to get something done by the deadline.

[Imoddedu]

I guess i'll try this one. I'm new to mapping, therefore not good so don't expect something good.

[Deathbagel]

I actually started off trying to make the outside of the ministry of love, but it didn't go all that well...... maybe I'll give it another shot, either way, my screenshot now IS NOT final. I'm going to make it a progression of shots, one either of the exterior or a holding room or something, then the shot I have now (probably tweaked a bit), then a shot of the climax: the person's death and/or 'redemption'.
