The ~Official~ Facepunch Map Pimpage/WIP Thread V15

[aln447]

Making a narrative mod, inspired by Thirty Flights Of Loving by Blendo Games. Made the first level...well, at least think I made. This is the first map I ever made, so don't expect any über-pro-level-design-skills.
Made it in a week and spent the next one polishing it and playtesting with friends.
The photos weren't edited. That's game's cc.
What do you think facepunch?

That looks really really cool. The fog doesn't blend too well with the skybox, so it looks a bit weird, to me at least. Other than that it's looking pretty nice, especially the use of color correction.

Thanks, and you're right, I'm still trying to figure out the best configurations for things. Making it 10-20 units darker might do the trick.

A little update on my plaza map for Zombie Escape.

Did the 20 Brush Challenge again. This abstract structure is a 1on1 map for TF2, its layout consisting of no more than 20 brushes, obviously not counting the skybox brushes and the kill trigger below the map.

Heyya gents' I made a map to try to imitate the lighting in [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwEuSxAEXPA]this Unreal Engine 4 video by "Koola".[/url]
It sort of worked and sort of didn't. It was worth the shot, and pretty damn fun to attempt.

Rotation is actually relative to the angles of the func_rotating or func_door. so set the angles accordingly and it should rotate perfectly.

HOLY CRAP, THEY ADDED LIGHTMAPS ON MODELS SUPPORT FOR TF2!!!!!

Why are they only adding this now, 7 years (10 if you count HL2 being released) after the fact, and with Source 2 on the horizon?

[Magman77]

Holy shit I hope they recompile ALL of the official maps to take advantage of it.

If I had to guess, maybe they just now realized they could easily implement support for it and said 'why not, let's be charitable'. That is weird though. Do you think this could be leading up to a big end-of-era graphical overhaul, like they did with other source games when EP2 came out?

[aln447]

[QUOTE=Magman77;45980791]Holy shit I hope they recompile ALL of the official maps to take advantage of it.[/QUOTE]

Probably will....next year.

[Magman77]

I hope they implement it for all of the other games as well. This is quite exciting.

Okay, made it a bit darker....in result made half of it disappear, but I don't think that's worse. Opinions?

As cool as this is, unless they add support for lightmap channels (Like Unreal Engine) then this is pretty limited, since any models that use the same texture for different parts of the model will break it (Like a crate, or a wall model that uses one repeating texture).

[Magman77]

Could you provide an example of it being broken?

Wow, multiple lightmap channels seems pretty vital, I see what you mean now. That's like the same problem you get when you spawn two of the same func_physbox from a point_template and then shoot one; the other gets decalled too.

Though from a technical standpoint I understand that they're entirely unlike one another.

It's still useful for traditional Source level workflow. Brushes would still be used for layouts and large surfaces. Most serious prop modelers will give every surface of their models it's own UV space.

No idea why. But this reminds me of Metal Gear Solid 1.
Very nice!
