<div class="IPBDescription">Spirit has a change in direction.</div> This is the last time I'm going to change the design of Spirit, I swear <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Most much to say really, just give me your feedback on the general design and lighting and so on, so I know how to make it all good and stuff. I also have a few plans for taking stuff from the previous two iterations of Spirit and changing them around to fit this style.

Anyways, here's the shots:

EDIT: Bah, Netfirms sucks. The shots are attatched to the posts below.

    Hmm. Mendasp doesn't seem to be the only one for whom the images do not appear. Which is funny, because I can see them fine. Anyway, I'll attatch them, for anyone that can't see.

    one thing, the pipes on the left side of the second pic seem to go into the doorframe and stop. It's unrealistic to have those pipes just stop. Have them turning into the wall, not into the doorframe...

    other wise it roxors my boxors!

    Very nice. It looks official quality style-wise. I love the asymmetry in the lighting. As someone is bound to say if I don't first, it reminds me of Nothing. Now, hurry up and get it out!

    Hm, searching for minor complaints.... Maybe you could add a *thin* trim between the r25 round-holed grate ramp and the nos_grate floor, as the change in texture looks a bit sudden.

    I can see why the pipes on the left are a problem (as Windelkron pointed out), but that was an idiotic oversight on my part, but it's not a huge problem, as this is just a styletest. But I don't see the problem with the pipes on the right, they're perfectly continuous.

    But can you tell me what is actally wrong, besides a little niggle with the pipes? -Why- is it really bad?

    Very nice Insane, very nice indeed. The only things I could suggest are more places for skulks to hide in the cielings or wall fixtures, and maybe some pretty glowy signs or the like?

    hey, at the back of the second pic you see how it is pitch dark? make that a bend in the tunnel, and the keep the bend absolutely pitch dark. that would pwn so incredibly. (fearful going thru the bend)

    In essence there is nothing wrong with the style, only the cut-off pipe.

    hmmm /me likes
    Although i don't like the repeated light textures on the top of the walls.
    Take them off and use light_spots instead.. give it loads more atmosphere.

    You can try taking those lights out, but I'm betting that it will develop a lack of contrast and look too drab. I like those sudden lights coming out of the dark walls--they give the eye something to focus on and draw the viewer's attention somewhere.

    I am actually using light_spots in there to add highlights to the floor and create more variation between light and dark. As for the lights, most of them are off, so it's not exactly repeating really <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
