Ns_eniant, Five Pics

Nemesis_Zero · February 2003

Straight from the compiler, I have five pics from that map I've been working on much too long now. Enjoy.

(Note that they're not gamma corrected. They look slightly more crisp in game.)

droooooool...

I love that 5th pic, the broken door looks brilliant. Hope this has been submitted for 1.1 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Scythe · February 2003

Looking mighty nice. This is a totally new style of NS map. I'm liking it.

It has been submitted (as it was submitted for 1.0...). The playtest went better than I would've guessed, which doesn't have to mean that it went good enough.

Iden · February 2003

Yet <b><i>another</i></b> mapper to add to the list of people who's brains I most consume to become a proper mapper.

Good work Nem.

Dread · February 2003

Looking great, btw. What does that "Possible Hive location Engines" mean? New feature in 1.1? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

And that broken door(is it really broken?) seems a bit weird, how did it get in to that kind of condition?

Tiio · February 2003

I imagine the "Possible Hive Rooms" are areas that he currently has the hives, but won't necesarily be the hive locations in the final build of the map.

Nemesis_Zero · February 2003

Nope, no new feature. I just marked all possible hive info_locations specifically. I'll rewrite them all in the near future.

Well, let me put it like this: There are some big, mean, and aggressive aliens around...

I love it!
Your control room in the first pic is nice but i'd like to see something on top of it (Like a lower portion of the ceiling above it)

Love the lighting in the 2nd shot, although the "skeleton" in the transparent monitor doesn't fit the location.

Nice moody hallways in the 3rd shot. A few small (SMALL!) red lights coming from spot lights on the walls in the darker place would enhance it more.

In the 4th shot, pPut in less strips of light around the edge. It'll also save you some compiling time in RAD.

Broken door in the 5th shot is nice, but make it a bit lower and carve out the slanted part on the outline of the doorway so it doesn't look like the door normally "clips" through those brushes.

All in all, very good.

Yes, thats what I meant by "weird" <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Nice Nem. Your shots get better as you scroll down.

Nemesis: Maybe bring down the door a little like in previous versions of NS Hera when there was once a door at the archiving hive (bottom that is). It will give the area more "Je ne sais qoi".

I'm not sure I get what you are trying to suggest. Could you please elaborate?

I agree, but seeing that there is only a limited amount of monitor textures, and that my ability with Wally and GIMP can only be described with words that're prohibited on these forums, I guess I'll keep it <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Um... Well, honestly, I hate red light. It has surely some disturbing freudian reason, but I nonetheless can't stand it. Chances for red light_spots in Eniant are rather ... low.

Good idea.

Ah, now I see what you and Dread meant. I'll change it.

Bytor · February 2003

WOW ... I especially like the hallway in #3 ... very impressive Nem.

folk · February 2003

everything looks great, especially the first shot, though the third looks barren.

Windelkron · February 2003

yay, no red lights? pwn. red lights where they don't belong.. equal h8.

Iliked your shots; my only beef was with #3 (I believe that was the long, dark hallway). Put more contrasting shadows there. The hallway in the background is good, but the foreground is too bright and will be a massacre of skulks.

BigD · March 2003

Lovely. Most points I would make have been made.

I really like your computer terminals in shot 1. And personally, I think the hallway in number 3 looks like skulk pwnage (eyes up those corners on the ceiling in the foreground)

Can't wait til it goes gold! (Oh come on... if it was submitted for 1.0... IT CAN'T miss the cut this time... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>)

Rush_Of_Peons · March 2003

yeah well it looks great <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'> i agree wit hthe red lights comments, something about red jsut doesnt fit, some areas yes but not in every single "dark" hallway.

Can i ask as to a storyline of what happened to the inhabitants and what the station was meant to do??

Nemesis_Zero · March 2003

Freestyler, whom I started mapping with, once wrote a backstory for it. I'll rework some parts so that it's fitting in the NS-storyline (Eniant was started in Fall 2001, when most details weren't known), and then put it up for d/l.
