Title: Canada Day Map!
Post by: Apocalypse on July 06, 2007, 06:43:11 PM

Thanks to y00tz I've been able to design a Canada Day map similar to his (a flag). Don't make fun of me because the leaf sucks it's harder than it looks anyways here are a couple screenshots and a download. Also I know it is late but better late than never.
Yes I konow it's late too.
1st screen shot: overview (see the flag!)
2nd+3rd: two different angles.

You need to get some lighting in there, and probably work on the leaf a bit more.  Maybe put a picture of the real maple leaf on a grid or something and try to remap it exactly.  I'd also add some more stuff in the middle.

Jits it is lit and what do you expect I made it in half an hour because I didn't want for it to be even later.

I don't see any shadows.  Everything looks uniformly colored.  Are you sure it's lit?  If it is, then you need to work on the lighting a bit.  Use sun lighting or something.

Come on, you can do way better than that.
If you feel that you are rushing a map to be released, you shouldn't release it until you are completely sure that its the way you want.
Here's a pic of what I got after ~30 minutes of work.

:-\ Making an eagle, with a serpent, a cactus, and a plant is not as easy as making a simple leaf. ;)

Apocalypse it looks pretty good.
I know it seems odd to release a flag map, but I think as most people who played it agree.. It's nice to occasionally break away from the same old stuff.  I know of few DM in rotation on pub that don't play as PGP only and it was fun to just run, jump, and elim.

I'll d/l tommorow, I want to see if you change the lighting first.

Cobo, is that the hidden Royal Noire MCE 2005 theme?  I <3 it

Hey your right Jits I swear though I did a final compile....
I did a final compile and all the other lighting compilers always like in the pic it is definitely lit.
