Th0r Posted August 19, 2006 What do you know, I'm starting another Skulltag Dm project, anyways ill give you a little background on it. With this wad I'm going to try some wacky ideas and a little creativity in my maps, placing you in areas where you wouldn't think a dm would take place, such as an asteroid belt, or the inside of a cow, maybe a graveyard, and a little marines on a plane, anyways i'm trying to stay away from conventional maps with this one and we will see how it goes when its done, here's some screens from the first map.

Hobbs Posted August 19, 2006 Is this to make up for your inability to map normal structures or...? 0 Share this post Link to post
Vader Posted August 19, 2006 The sky looks horrible and what the hell is this yellow thingy in the mittle of the map? Other than that, it looks like it could be fun... reminds me of that one map in Q3Arena! 0 Share this post Link to post

zap610 Posted August 19, 2006 Th0r, just because you can't map that doesnt mean you have to be angry at hobbs. 0 Share this post Link to post
Th0r Posted August 19, 2006 I never said i could map, only reason i post this stuff is to get better. And just because you dont like mean it doesnt mean you can raid every one of my threads with dumb and or negative comments.Vader said:The sky looks horrible and what the hell is this yellow thingy in the mittle of the map? Other than that, it looks like it could be fun... reminds me of that one map in Q3Arena! Remember the game Asteroid, its the ship and the ships shot. And its still in the early stages, i plan to change the sky. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dutch Doomer Posted August 19, 2006 With an different sky it should look alot better, maybe make those platforms nicely curved looks so blocky and pionty now. Just keep mapping please :) it looks alright so far it just needs some more work. 0 Share this post Link to post

In the game asteroids they were pointy http://users.tkk.fi/~eye/videogames/asteroid2.jpg and im not exactly sure what i could do for the sky, instead of telling me my sky sucks, offer some suggestions of how to fix it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Doom Marine Posted August 20, 2006 I think you have something interesting there, keep it up! 0 Share this post Link to post
wildweasel Posted August 20, 2006 I think it looks pretty good. It reminds me of Facing Worlds in a way... 0 Share this post Link to post

I kind of agree with Hobbs, the sky looks horrible. It looks as though it is composed of 3000 squares against a black background. Try a different sky. I coudn't help but notice that there were several unknown thing sprites. Fix them. Get rid of that ugly yellow thing in the middle of the map, and make better use of ALL the skull tag features. That's about all the advice I can give you. 0 Share this post Link to post

Russkie Posted August 20, 2006 I like it. Hope it plays well. Although I would try to design it without the ship and shot in it. I think just having an asteroid belt themed map is a cool idea, without the asteroid game crossover gimmick added in. You can keep it in if you want though. It reminds me a lot of Quake3, which is good cuz they have some really good DM maps. And I agree with what everyone's said about the sky... it looks like someone sneezed on it. I'm sure there's a better starry sky out there. 0 Share this post Link to post

GGG Posted August 21, 2006 You could also look around at skies in different wads. I've seen lots of nice space/starry night sky textures. 0 Share this post Link to post

wildweasel Posted August 23, 2006 That sky looks like it could be really pretty, but unfortunately the Doom palette pretty much butchers it =P 0 Share this post Link to post
Kirby Posted August 23, 2006 ^^^^ What he said. If you can find a way to make it look nicer and somewhat more scaled (from what I can tell in that pic, the sky is huge) then it might look a lot better, but right now its not too great..... 0 Share this post Link to post
