AndrewB Posted February 13, 2002 The Chaos Crew has updated with a few screenshots of Phobos: Anomaly Reborn, Map05: The Dig Site. They are quite the beauty, however no new news on overall progress. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lutz Posted February 13, 2002 Wow! I'm the first guy to post something! ...But, given the way others react to this sort of opportunity, I don't feel as great as I thought I would. And just what the hell is "Choctaw"? 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest pablodictter Posted February 14, 2002 Screenshots rock big time. Big Time! 0 Share this post Link to post
Lutz Posted February 14, 2002 Thanks -- they are a bit old, as every area shown has been updated with better lighting and the addition of some set pieces (crates and the like). I'm just waiting on Nokturnus to send me level 6 so that I can tie the ending of this level to the beginning of his. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest pablodictter Posted February 15, 2002 old? well, to me they look like awesome shit to me. I'd never seen a map with original ideas in them...and all of them have different stuff, which makes them different. (you could see that on the 4 maps you released) I can't do episodes by myself because of that. I don't have much ideas. Gotta buy a new brain, maybe get some new driver for it. ...yeah. 0 Share this post Link to post
Metabolist Posted February 15, 2002 sigh... Wow, that's the way to make maps look _good_. But why does he use FLOOR7_1, one of the ugliest textures in Doom? Well, I guess everyone has their little quirks. AARGH! I'm holding a dialogue with myself!!! Noooo!!! I'm gonna have to up my prescription... see you later! 0 Share this post Link to post
Lutz Posted February 15, 2002 pablo: I meant the shots are "old" in the sense that they were taken early in the level's development; at least three of the screenshots would look a bit different, now. Metabolist: I actually like FLOOR7_1; yes, it's brown and unexciting, but it was used so consistently in E1 as the "outside ground" texture that it is hard to create an E1-style outdoors area without using that texture as the ground flat. If nothing else, it is not a "distracting" texture -- there is nothing flashy about it (unlike, say, the CEMENT textures or the TLITE flats), so it blends nicely with almost any other texture/flat. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted February 18, 2002 Bah, Floor7_1 rules. It's when people use Ceil5_2 where Floor7_1 should be used that it gets irritating. 0 Share this post Link to post
Metabolist Posted February 18, 2002 Oh well, I guess it's just me then. 0 Share this post Link to post
inferno_45 Posted February 18, 2002 I can't do episodes by myself because of that. I don't have much ideas. Heh, that's my biggest problem. 0 Share this post Link to post
inferno_45 Posted February 18, 2002 About how long does it take you to save that damn thing? 0 Share this post Link to post
Lutz Posted February 18, 2002 Er, what do you mean? In-game saves are no problem, and file saves from WinDEU and DETH are a piece of cake. BSP takes about 2 minutes on a Pentium 800 with 256 megs of RAM. 0 Share this post Link to post
inferno_45 Posted February 18, 2002 I meant when you save your map. Heh, two minutes is a long time, for me. I have to playtest my map every five minutes because my editor is so buggy. 0 Share this post Link to post
