    i can't reduce its bytes for some reason, resizing it in paint reduced bytes by only a few hundred:(

    edit: wait it did reduce bytes, but its still a bit above, i might crop some off, one sec

    Here's a quick and dirty fix : save as a jpeg! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Screenshots are saved as bmp files, which are huge anyways. MSPaint can open the bmp and save it as a jpg.

    Anyone would be an idiot by doing what? Opening a HL screenshot in MSPaint, then saving it as a jpg? I've done it that way dozens of times already - while it's not a 100% perfect transfer, it's more than adequate enough to be considered quite good.

    Erendor, try a freware program called Irfanview. It has everything you need and more including a resizing ability. Did I mention that it's FREE!?

    Cheers. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    These forums clear the attach file field if you preview your post, so that might be the cause. Also make sure that it's within the size limit.

    This is a couple of boxes in the marine spawn, and a vent on the right, which leads to a room to the left of black hole waste mang.

    Okay...

    - If you're a beginner in mapping -> not bad at all!
    - If you're mapping for quiet some time -> shame on you!
    - If it just isn't done yet and is like a plan -> can't really comment

    Well, i'm a 2 and a 3. I've been mapping for a bit on another mod, which was an outdoor one, and the rooms are like plans. The reason i want feedpack is so i can make plans into finished products which everyone likes. I'm going to post some more pics later on, where i have revamped the CC area a bit, and another one of the rooms.

    The marine spawn area, with the CC, a bit revamped from the other picture, looking a bit better i think.

    The Marine Spawn, from the other side, note the incredible detail in that spark popping on the far right <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Looking back at the boxes from before, with the CC area behind you, the red vent on the right goes to a room in a later picture.

    The room i told you about. The vent in the ceiling goes to the marine spawn, and will be able to welded shut from this room.

    try making it all a bit less boxy.

    The doors are just squares carved out of the wall and it shows.
    Revamping that cc area is ok but still i dont see any really intresting achitecture.

  • RR_Co-NRR_Co-N Join Date: 2002-12-11 Member: 10524Members
    And get higher ceilings. Its doesnt look right this way and it certainly wont play right with skuks.

  • erendorerendor Join Date: 2003-02-06 Member: 13180Members
    its still all mostly a plan. The cc area i know i'm going to put in some large generator type things hanging fromt he ceiling, and the boxiness of that door willbe removed, its jsut how i do things. if i make a room, it starts out as a box till i get a feel for what its going to be.

    this map seem to not have any detail at all... "developer 1" and "r_speeds 1" in displays polygon count... look at the "wpoly" numbers... I guess it isnt even over 50... increase detail levels, but stay under 800 in wpolys, or the map can lag on slow computers...
