*scratches head*

So I'm out for summer, found a CRAPTOOOOOOOOON of my lost tags and data, and figured I want to seriously try to finish up some maps.
BECAUSE LIGHTNING DOESNT FINISH SHIT. :<
*cough*

First on my list is Floodlab (http://xce.h2vista.net/portfolio/maps/floodlab.html), since Polar was so kind to portal that and help with a lot of things, but I wanted to get the opinion (if anyone still freggin cares) what I should focus on first.

Library:

http://xce.h2vista.net/portfolio/images/maps/lib/center.png

Gravemind (this is getting a bit of an overhaul, outside area being scrapped):
http://xce.h2vista.net/portfolio/images/maps/gm/0screenshot00.png
http://xce.h2vista.net/portfolio/images/maps/gm/gmrender1.png

Caves (namechange plz):
http://i45.tinypic.com/2dujp0p.jpg
http://i46.tinypic.com/rro7m9.jpg

I know some of these screenshots really don't show much, and I have a few other maps too (Cairo and a few unfinished H2CE(lolololo) maps somewhere too...), but they are all I have handy. :/ I'm copying all of my data back now and hopefully will be able to get some more screenshots ASAP. I have a few other shots located here (http://xce.h2vista.net/portfolio/level1.html) (I don't know if Asylum would be possible to finish, Depends if we can find good ol' Neuro again!)

I'm actually leaning towards Gravemind, Not many people have seen that, and I really love the feel of Covie maps.

YOU DECIDE. I want to release these for H2V as well (since it's a 1-2 just-recompile-the-bsp-job), since I..guess people are starting to play it now?
If I get a "Yoshi" reply, I swear Doc. will be shot





oh also hi everyone.

Gravemind, definitely. Not too many Covy maps around, and most if not all have terrible shaders, unlike what I'm seeing in those screens.

May 27th, 2010, 11:56 PM
Pretty sick maps. I'd like to see them in h2v for sure.

Lights, I swear to god I will drive to PA and beat you senseless if you disappear again without releasing anything.

I'm down for some Gravemind getting fixed up next I suppose.

Get started on it now and you might be ready for when Halo 3 PC is released in about another eternity!

Hi guys. I don't know a person so I should be looked down upon.

Lightning
May 28th, 2010, 12:16 AM
jcap, stfu. <3

@Polar, I can probably manage Gravemind, but I know Library needs massive portals. :/ There are FAR too many polies in that thing without 'em, not not mention the damn map is huge as ever for anything less than 16 people.

Ah, shit, Library. Forgot about that. I'll check to see if I have the source file you sent to me ages ago, if not resend it and I'll try to make some time to have a look at it.

Lightning? It's been some time. Good to see you back. I wouldn't mind playing on a few of those. CE could use something new and refreshing.

sevlag
May 28th, 2010, 04:58 AM
So this is the floodlabs I've been hearing about from time to time

anyways these look good, I'd say finish gravemind first, worry about Flood labs second, and I guess that cave map third

would be nice to see some decent additions to the HCE maps

Oh hey lights! Any ETA until we'll see you release your first map?

Finish up Yoshit and rainbutt road plz

teh lag
May 28th, 2010, 10:46 AM
Finish Library first after Floodlab. It seems like the least work is needed to finish it; I'd hate to see the summer come and go with you using valuable time remodeling one map when another is sitting there in a much more complete state.

Also, Library. Looks sick, saw a video of it a while ago, finish it.

DarkHalo003
May 28th, 2010, 02:06 PM
Wow these are great! I was wondering when Floodlabs would be finished ever since I saw Polar_bear bring it up some time ago.

My favorites just looking at them are Gravemind and "Caves." Keep it up!

Amit

You do cool stuff so I guess you're cool.

Wow...just wow.

Great stuff as always. I don't really get why you show up for a bit and then disappear to come back with stuff that resembles gold.

Arteen
May 28th, 2010, 03:14 PM
I was thinking about bugging you to finish Floodlab and Library the other day, but figured you didn't care any more. Do Library first. Maybe consider revising its layout? Who did the Gravemind bsp? It looks familiar, but it definitely is lacking a layout. Also, I'd like you to release the H2CE maps you have. I remember seeing some neat ones.

Con
May 28th, 2010, 07:07 PM
I think Snaf did the Gravemind bsp.

SnaFuBAR
May 28th, 2010, 08:19 PM
I really don't remember if i did or not, since i did model all the high charity rooms. IDK if his is a rip or not but i don't recall giving him my bsp stuff.

that reminds me i keep forgetting to release that shit. xD

Lightning
May 28th, 2010, 08:41 PM
Naw, Gravemind was me, part of the outside was a rip, though.

Snaf, I still have Hive stuff laying around, but nothing other than that.

SnaFuBAR
May 28th, 2010, 08:44 PM
Oh GOD not hive ): that was some shit modeling and nobody can tell me different.

Ha. lol

I remember playing the old version of Library. Didn't it have some sort of secret room like thing? And I remember everyone going batshit over something. I think it was his pimped out hog and the nuke.

Oh, yeah, THAT Library. Yeah, that was just the BSP from the first part of the campaign level with stuff added to it in an attempt to convert it to multiplayer, and there was the civihog in a secret area with the nuke launcher hidden in a certain vent. This version's an original layout with pieces taken from the campaign level.

As for anyone that needs a history lesson Lightning is the texture artist for H2CE , possibly one of the best texture artists CE has ever had, plus hes made a bunch of stuff on the side, mostly nintendo stuff , hes helped out with alot of projects including H2CE,Metroid Online,Sonic CE, I think ages ago CMT (Dont hold me to that one), and a couple of others.
