Nexuiz Mapping

Just downloading your file, i am already curious

That's how my map looks atm. I have the feeling i don't get any closer to the finish

Bansh, you have mail.

Damn Growl, that's lookin' sweet.

Still getting problems with my 2nd map. Solved the problem with the circular lava pit, got problems with duplicated objects not showing up properly now.

I think I have a case of ideas outweighing skill. Damn, it's only 5% done, may call it a day & leave it @ lost1.

I wonder how ppl can make good maps in some hours.

I read at the nexuiz ninjas, that they do maps in about 2-8 hours.

Crazy folks...

Btw. I call the map now Impulse, because of the big pillar which is senden impulses into the earth

Update:



If u have problems with the cloning-function, u should use importend prefabs.
My cloned Teleport was also f***ed up, the lights of it were rotating all over the map

Certainly coming on nicely m8, it's looking great. Impulse makes a good name too.

Thx for the advice m8, I will try making a prefab. I really hate it when something doesn't work as it should tho, or at least how I think it should work.

yeah looks awesum
U m8s rox with that mappin'

Now I show u the "dark side" of the map

Its still under heavy construction and i have big problem connecting this part to the main corridor. I hope to finish the map next week. Or to have a least a playable raw

Don't hurry - or it will go wrong.
The map looks really good so far. A bit critic: The map looks "too grey", some emitting (red) objects or lamps would be cool.
I still dont have a clue of radiant so I cant help you

Yes u are right, the map is very grey atm.

I should recolor it a bit and bring it some lights. But no reds, i was thinking of blue ones for a cool atmosphere there.
But first I have to build the rest of the map, there are also no gimmicks inserted yet. I was thinking of barrels and crates or something of that kind.


edit:The raw is done

need to fix some glitches and fill it with live now.

Here an overview over the map layout:

And again some little updates

Very important add: Prophets



And a train function, transporting lots of pillar into nowhere




Sadly i am still lacking good ideas for the style of the backrooms+stairway...
First i wanted to have bleeding walls, but i dunno how to make it

What a time-killer

Yea, 'prophets' is a nice touch.

Keep taking your time & I'm sure it'll be awesome.

looks very nice m8

Thank u guys

Here some new Eyecancer.....candy....w/e

More textures pls.

Looks as tho it's gonna rock, nice work m8.

Lolers Marc, I have to ask U, just be honest with me:

Do you really think i need more textures? I want to keep up the clean look...but if u say it looks too "empty"....

@banshee

Yes, I am addicted and pissed off at the same time
I like to do this and I like to create this map. On the other hand I hate how much time it comsumes and how small the steps are I do day by day.

Tho it will be the last map I'll ever do

Nope, not too empty.

I just agree with Brecht, there's a lot of grey. Whether you add coloured lighting, darken some areas, change some textures or break up the existing ones with something, it'd help.

Just trying to add something more than my usual 'looks great' (which it does btw).

yup I get that very well, I admit I was pissed as hell cuz of time needed to do something right, so I made small map (the second one) maybe bit too small but it could be really a slaughterhouse for few ppl, and with about 10 plyers there, ohhhh lolers bloody bath
looking forward to see Urs when it's done m8

I just had an idea:

I will recolor every height-level of the map in another maintheme. If it lloks good I will up some new pics soon

Hope to get a look that looks consistent in itself

Exchanged some textures, tell me if u like it or not.

It's very time expensive to make it like this, so pls answer me

First pic will be the main-style if u don't tell me its crap.


Second pic is just to show u some lights

Hey Marc

great work .... the map becomes better and better ...

maintheme looks very good m8 lights also

man looks really nice now:)

Oh yeeeeh, those screens look sweeeet. Nice work Marc, really.

Changed already a bit of the style, now it's more dirty....

nice map growl when will we see it in action??

and can u pls make a tutorial i mean record the screen while making it??
