Remnant

[BloodyAcid]

Remnant is primarily a large SP explorational map with heavy inspiration from Dead Space. It is probably the largest map I've ever made so far. It's more of a personal mapping limitaitons test than anything. The main thing is that this map is built with and for software, rather than many atmospheric wads that require GL.

August 17: Project is born.
August 26: 10k sidedefs (finally)
September 03: 10k linedefs and 20k sidedefs
December 08: Progress resumed. Transition to GL (not a taxing map)

The first shot shows the opening hallway.
The second screen shows off some lockers I whipped up with a door varient.
The last shot is another hallway.

Code: Select all

[Neewbie]

Y u no dynamic lights ):

[Ænima]

oh god i cannot wait to play this

[BloodyAcid]

Hmm, hi-res or no? I'm honestly afraid that it will take away the Doom feeling. I'll most likely leave them for a future project.

[Lollipop]

leave the high res alone, the doom texes are high enough res, else they wouldnt have any point :\

[Zeberpal]

Great job so far. Keep working on it! explorational map sound very sexy.

Looks pretty damn good to me.

But there's just one thing to remember about mixing hi-res and low-res textures: When you make one or several textures hi-res, they grab players' attention. This can be good or bad, depending on what effect you're trying to achieve.

Small engine room in the works. I used idbeholdl to get a brighter shot.

[BloodyAcid]

Something to keep it from slipping to the next page :) Done with idbeholdl since I haven't decided what to do with the lighting yet.

[Lollipop]

I look forward to playing :D

[IdeIdoom]

Lots of details, nice textures and other good stuff.
Hope this map will come out :)!
Good luck making this map!

This is pretty good, I really liked that you sectored out parts of the overhead light in the first screenshot I think that is a real testament of your affinity to detail.

HUZZAH

That granite floor tile texture looks cool.

[Marcaek]

You are filling this with monsters, right? :P

How much more work is left?

1) Maybe :P ala deadspace maybe
2) Too much...

That granite floor tile texture looks cool.

Thanks, I mugged it off of some random texture file from idgames.
