All current ET mapping projects

Flat? What would you improve here? I already use a bevel on it but when it is too strong it looks unnatural.

Edit: ok I pimped the cobblestone, better?

[KeMoN]

These houses are really awesome Krischan.
You really made all your textures yourself? Respect!

[Krischan]

Yes, it is very easy if you keep the distances between the beams constant so that you can vary the house just switching the UV coordinates of the texture, horizontal and vertical. As a free gift, here is the texture of the house from the last screenshot that you get an idea how I made it (and can play yourself with it):

Awsome

Do you already know when it will be finished (roughly) ?

[Krischan]

Nope, it's done when it's done :-) The next step is to create rows of different houses/depths along the streets, mixed with non timbered houses. The hard part here is that they don't look too rural, more urban, not repeating and don't hit the FPS too much.

looking good !

Good luck with it, impressive tex work

nope, it still looks way too flat. it's very easy to transform it. you can use the cutter tool, shape the cobble stone into triangles and use it like terrain.. at the moment it looks way unnatural.

[Krischan]

I'm not quite sure what you mean - I added now tesselation and lightmapscale to the ground (we're talking about the cobbles surrounding the well, not the sidewalk, right?)

[IndyJones]

top screen is your cobble stone, bottom is same terrain slightly edited (just don't go too far with ur roads)

Cool work there, you mind if I use that texture? I'm making a German town map and would really add some variety

[Shownie]

Krischan: Your map looks so far so good, very detaild, thats a big plus!

[Justice]

Astonishingly awesome! Definitely another great asset in the collection of beautiful maps.

[BackSnip3]

Krischan your map looks really good! Awesome stuff! It's like another engine,colors are great, lighting too.What lighting settings do you use for this?(lightmaps stuff, surfacelights/lights, skybox...)
I'm really impressed by those screens!

[Justice]

By the way, I would like to know the names of the maps:

Thanks in advance
I couldn't find the names

[Krischan]

@IndyJones: ah now I know what you mean - I must check this out - the streets in real Frankfurt are not very uneven in this area.

@Chris: that's why I said "as a free gift" - use it if you want

@BlackSnip3 / all: I assure you that this is the plain ET Quake 3 Engine, only with lightmaps :-) But look yourself - I decided to give away a simple house sandbox with all additional textures, shaders and the source map free to study or use (read the fachwerk_readme.txt included), and please don't throw handgrenades in my well :-P

I would be happy if you credit me if you decide to use it in your own projects.

Yeah it's interesting me, thanks
I'm no pro at lighting but I experimented some stuff recently, with no surfacelights

More stuff very soon on pointe_du_hoc topic

[Avoc]

A little update, havent had so much time to work on the map as I wanted, and I keep getting new ideas. :/

Added some extra details to the main objective area:







Axis spawn:





Area that lead the allies into the old mine:

[KeMoN]

Really awesome work, Avoc.
Everything is fitting perfectly into that scenario. Your tree models, the skybox, etc.
Also great work on the details in the background it really looks like the map goes on.

[Infinitypl123]

It's amazing great work!

This was supposed to be a map for the Domination mod. I stopped working on it for no apparent reason.
