I've been really busy lately, but I got the ice how I want it.

lol purple floor
Why is the floor purple?
Allso, I'd make the ice a little more opaque.
Isn't there some brush entity that makes it so when you enter a certain area you can see the breath from the players mouth? I remember someone talking about it and I wondered where it was used if it was used at all then I played DoD:Source. Would be cool to impliment that into the map.
working on a EPIC map AND doing luas for a EPIC gamemode?
You are awesome dude.

It's actually a map property "World is Cold". It was originally for the Kraken Base in the original Hl2, but they scrapped it all.
I thought it was for DODS, but was removed?
But that makes more sense.
And you could try parenting a env_steam to the player's head attachment point.

Wow, can you like, parent things to an info_player_start?
Yeah it's a bit complicated. You just set the parent to !player. Dunno how well it would work in MP/when you respawn.

also, done forever with the HUD
The HUD = [b]EPICNESS![/b]
[b]Edit:[/b]
Do what he sad vvv
Damn, where did you get that model?
Only thing I can say is to make the ice have more of a "frosty" look. It looks to clear and it's hard to see. Also, could use brighter lights maybe.
I got a question, are you going to texture it like a clean and neat Raptyre or torn apart hell hole Rapture? Also, maybe find a way to get the crosshairs like those in Bioshock?

I'll have to work on the "frosty look". Some places will looked untouched, while others will look like a dump.
[QUOTE=Foda]Eh, total actual % done is ~10%. On the other-hand, concepts are about 100% done (I've been doodling during classes :v:), so I know what I doing, I just need to find the time to do it (I can only work usually only MWF and sometimes Saturday). College is starting to be a pain in the ass, but I'm still getting things done. Textures as you can see however, are still in the dev stage (texturing is just about last on the dev process for me). Right now I'm looking at a early release date of before Halloween, and possibly Thanksgiving as the latest.[/QUOTE]
How's the outlook now, Foda?
Epic map.
This map is awesome looking!
0.0 I want this map. Badly. But take your time on it, don't rush things and then balls it up. You would never been forgiven. This map is epic in its own right. The HUD and gamemode and weapons...that's just...Not enough words in the dictionary for describing it's awesomness...For now I'm going with...
EPIC
Plus, on a side note, any ideas for a rough release date?
You don't have to stick to it, just a general idea...
[QUOTE=Mister B]How's the outlook now, Foda?[/QUOTE]
hehe, still aiming for before Thanksgiving (most likely will not make the Halloween deadline). I didn't think I would get this much work. As of now, completion is about 30%.
I just :love: this map :D
Keep the [b]VERY[/b] good work up ;)
This map is amazing! Tell me if you need some screenshots from anywhere in Bioshock :)
Also: Any demo maps upcoming? :D
Foda. Idea.
You know those black or see-through flaps that go between normal-heated rooms and freezers (or just freezer to freezer)?
Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure, if you want to make some, you make the brushes, then tie them to a func_illusionary.
Just bringing this up as an idea and possible addition.
Everytime I check this thread I shit a brick from awesome. Good job Foda :)
[QUOTE=Foda]I planned on making a complementing gamemode with the map. So when you kill someone, or obtain a weapon or plasmid your "insanity" level increases. Higher it is, you become more like a Splicer. If your insanity reaches the Splicer level, you lose all your weapons, and are limited to what you can do. On the positive side, you can walk on ceilings and cool stuff.[/QUOTE]

To answer a question that I know will be asked: No. I don't plan on making the mini-sub blowup sequence, or the sub UNLESS someone can provide a model. There are a lot of places to hide in here...

I really like the lighting and atmosphere of this area, but the displacements are a bit blocky, you need to smooth them out a bit, make them a bit more bumpy.
[b]Edit:[/b]
also, are we gonna be seeing any hephaestus core stuff in this map. :ninja:
The tommy gun looks cool, can you release it as a separate SWep?

Third screenshot has odd displacements. The first really shows what I am trying to do: I wanted the rocks to look stylized, and jagged. But I can try to smooth them out.
Oh god, this thread's gone to page 2.
Bump.
Also, this is shaping together very nicely. Can't wait to play it.
How is all this gonna fit in one map :O
Most likely it could, it just is that hardly anyone has ever made one this big so it isn't really seen as possible. Just look at the EVO city maps and RP_TB_thecity.
