That's cool.
Here's what beta3 looks like, though. I have updated the screen shot.


I have received more feedback on this, and I'll try changing the lighting anyway, so it's a battle between red and dark purple (sky). The original map is very dark, though.

Looks nice rejecht!

Great job on beta3 (specially the underwater hidden passage part), but i think the rest.. its to bright and all, better stay more close to beta2, wich was better imo.

[partydevil]

is this red room in beta3?

the lava is the best looking lava ive seen in any ut map
but does it need to light the entire room red?

[Taz]

I played the map last night, and it looks amazing, really. Might be too bright in that one room, and it's somehow easier to fall into the lava But nice work!

[NmS]

atleast you can get out of the lava now, that is the biggest plus point. I cannot comment on the graphics or brightness of the map. I get every detail set to low and set the brightness and gamma so that everything is nice dark. That way I can see my pink brightskins better

Thanks for the feedback!

Lava Hall--I'll probably redo the lighting. The red was exaggerated to cast a glow on the area--danger! I'll do some excursions to places with magma to figure out how much light it emits.
Darkness--The original is very dark, though. No light at all in places. The mystery hall might get darkened a bit more, though.


Did the lift in the lava hall cause any trouble, by the way? It's supposed to prevent the situation where a player gets frozen on the lift, bumping into the ceiling, causing the lift to bump up and down.

Darkened the map.

Hey reject, sorry that I have not been here latley.

The darkened areas look allot better. More natural, and the players will stand out a bit more. It is often very tricky to get the right balence in
the lighting.

If I might add a comment, it might even be good to put a few brown/gold high radius, low intense lights in. It would brighten up the darker areas,
without giving the effects of the red lava glow away. And it might help to get the shocking effect away from the "glowing" blue health that u see
in the last picture.

Great job man, and I would love to explore it tomorrow. Sunday, I have a bit more free time. Frank

Good point, I didn't think much about that last screen shot.
The powerups come with static lighting off/unlit on, so I guess that's the norm, but the contrast is quite big there.
I tend to use nonincident lights for that purpose, like adding ambient light effects, like light bouncing off walls.

Thanks!

[rejecht]

Simple. Other distractions.

Well, a bit late, but is this the same map that has been discussed on Beynd Unreal. If not, i proposed to that guy to give him the high res textures i have like the carpet and the green spawnpoint thingy like this one: Sspirmu1.jpg
