Custom map made from blocs and machs
Ok this shouldnt be too difficult, but i would like some help.
The layout of the map model will be time consuming, but the skinning will be hardest probly.
I have 3 short videos for you to view, I will be making 1 map resembling what you see in these vidios, and there may be a forth area or even a fith if every thing works well, and there enough spawns available.
The map will made of custom machs and blocs.
If you would like to help, Heres whats going to be needed: Some to help with the skinning, and model injection, cause sometimes i screw this simple task up. I will work out the complete layout first. Also i would like all weapons to be new, i have some models but not enough for the mod and i cant UV or bump map correctly, so ill need help with that.
Ok heres the vids.

Re: Custom map made from blocs and machs
Glad to know your interested, BTW these vids are from dino crisis 3.
It would be great is we could make some similar shaders, like whats in the video.
I tried a couple, but i dont know enough about making custom shaders to get it right.
As far as the layout, i have a few ideas, The first was to simply have a room in the center,
and 2-4 hallways leading away then all conecting around the main room in center.
With upper and lower areas in the outer halls, and lots of obsticles for cover.
The main room will be more open.
What do you guys think.
Edit: i Just realized i was making a boxy midship map, well that wont do. Starting over.

Also, I'm interested in this, just don't know in what I can help, and can't catch you on WLM

We are the last stand.

Maps done, 50 collision boxes and 100 spawns. App isn't done yet.
Map, app, and tutorial.

Re: Custom map made from blocs and machs
good work man, We could have Bloc map compitition. Like everyone start with the base map with a set amount of spawns and boxs built in, and the App. And have a limited time to resize and set spawns.

Howz about a giant pinbal machine? mb mb?

I would like to stop whatever impending doom Dark is about to thrust upon you, but God knows someone would stop me.
God speed.

Alright so you're telling me that I could spawn you in the middle of a map that you have never seen nor edited before, and you would be able to tell me which direction X and Y are?Dragonfire wrote:Anyone should know which directions, x, y, and z go, i mean damn......who wouldnt know that?Darkshallfall wrote:So idiots know which direction is which when moving shit...Dragonfire wrote:Why do i still see a coordinate axis in there?
I guess you are one of the idiots I was referring to in the post above.
I mean Z is easy, that's up...but its like playing pin the tail on the donkey, with little info and no previous communication with what your doing then you have no idea.
This is obviously why I'm the one making this map, I understand you don't like me but don't put down logical things that make you seem like an idiot and just add another useless post to this forum.

Dark, u seriously need to get off ur period or something...i was just commenting on how seeing a coordinate axis on a map is a bit strange, dont need to blow a nut over it.Darkshallfall wrote:Alright so you're telling me that I could spawn you in the middle of a map that you have never seen nor edited before, and you would be able to tell me which direction X and Y are?Dragonfire wrote:Anyone should know which directions, x, y, and z go, i mean damn......who wouldnt know that?Darkshallfall wrote:So idiots know which direction is which when moving shit...Dragonfire wrote:Why do i still see a coordinate axis in there?

Yea I'm on my period.... If you paid attention to what the map is for then the axis would make perfect sense and you'd finally see how stupid and incompetent you really are.Dragonfire wrote:Dark, u seriously need to get off ur period or something...i was just commenting on how seeing a coordinate axis on a map is a bit strange, dont need to blow a nut over it.Darkshallfall wrote:Alright so you're telling me that I could spawn you in the middle of a map that you have never seen nor edited before, and you would be able to tell me which direction X and Y are?Dragonfire wrote:Anyone should know which directions, x, y, and z go, i mean damn......who wouldnt know that?Darkshallfall wrote:So idiots know which direction is which when moving shit...Dragonfire wrote:Why do i still see a coordinate axis in there?
