Good call on that Wedge. THe geometry is looking fairly good... but the texturing, IMHO, is simply atrocious. I HOPE that's another thing that's far from finalized. I do like those floor lights, though. To be honest, that idea hadn't even occured...  [Read More]

Wedge, if you DO manage to pull this off, I think it will be the first of it's kind. VERY interesting looking... No we just need an "Alien" player model for it... that thing SCREAMS Alien to me....  [Read More]

Hmmm... I can almost hear the battle cries, though. "GIVE ME CREDITS, OR GIVE ME CREDITS!" "A credit given is more valuable than a credit earned." *shudder* THIS has the potential to get ugly! :)...  [Read More]

I've been thinking about your options, Aru, and I think you've got the right idea. I'll go with option A for now (All for you Wedge! :) )and only go to B if I really run out of steam. I've also been thinking I've been going about doing the streets a...  [Read More]

Well, I've taken the map as far as I can for now... I eagerly await the Museum... both for screenshots of it and so I can piece it in to the rest of the map. I took a screenshot of the map as it is right now and put it on the site. My own preferance...  [Read More]

I find myself growing concerned... I've put in everything but the General Store, Port, and the as-yet unfinished Museum. And the brush count has skyrocketed up to just over 9700 brushes. I dont KNOW of any upper limit to a brush count, but that does...  [Read More]

Well, the Museum was further delayed tonight. He sent me a unfinished version, and one item leaped to mind on it right off. It was about three times the scale of the rest of the map. Aru-Wen blames it on a night of heavy drinking. I'd buy that! :) S...  [Read More]

If we want that night feel, I'll need either a new skybox for it, or I'll have to use one of the base skyboxes... and only the "stars" or the "space" one could even come close to that. S/C/C? (Suggestions/Comments/Complaints)...  [Read More]

Elegance is elegance, Wedge. WHo's to say that, in a Galaxy Far Far Away, there is not a close congruity of ancient architectural styles? There would almost have to be, no? And some areas lend themselves to particualar types more than others. In oth...  [Read More]

Actually, I'm having second thoughts about including either of those two areas. THe nightclub, would, in essence, be a second bar. What would be the point? All it would add to your basic bar is a dance floor, which would just be a big open area. So...  [Read More]

Just a quick note on progress... The port is about 95% alid out and a good portion of it is textured. Hopefully (if the mood is upon me) I'll get it all wrapped up and finished in the next couple of days. Just to let you all know - it's been a slow...  [Read More]

I dont have a straight answer for you right now, Pnut. It's there in the back of our heads, but until we get the whole map put together, I just cant answer that. I like the idea myself, but there is one MAJOR thing I have to think about if I do it......  [Read More]
