here you go, a strider and two combines to feel the scale ^^
i assume the lack of props, it's only the begining :razz: , making textures and models takes a pretty long time, but all the messy stuff will come, i'm 'only' on 4000 triangles ^^, how can it be playable if it's a kind of killbox.
Obviously you'll add more stuff to it, to fill it up. But -- I
was wondering, could you give us a shot with a player model or
something in it, I'm just wondering how you worked out the scale.
you need to decide if this is a child's room, a teens room, a young adults room or possibly a retired persons room. next you need to place items appropriate to the theme.
you need the tiny things easily overlooked in a rats maps.. light fixtures, wall plugs.. phone line connections.. dust bunnies in the corners. old prophylactic wrappers. lost change.
find a dead cockroach someplace and throw it in there.. preferably a big one :smile:
Its very convincing, but it could do with a bit more clutter. The
lighting is absolutely wonderful, I love the colour and angle, it
results in such lovely smoothness and shadows. The bed looks so real I
could just jump right on it :biggrin:
Ah, this reminds me of yet another cool map i played recently.. DM_Bathroom is nice.
personally, I never liked any rats maps with HL1, cause my frames suffered severely, but with my new PC, I have reconsidered the worth of a well built rats map.
