Sounds more Australian. Heh heh, Parcel for you

lol nicechange of topic well i just saw hl2 pics in the other thread pffft f**k doom3 lol. dont get me wrong doom3 is very sexy but hl2 is sexy twice.!

²

yeah.

These will be the last of the D3 pics till Nightwatch is done.. People trust me.. learning more than one editor is bound to be beneficial... Dont be lazy ( eh.. who am I kidden haha ) <3

damn that is nice looking im still trying to learn how to use the editor, and im making like half life rocks, i need to laern how to make stuff like that.

cracker, post one more d3 shot before I see more NW work, and I'll slap you back to the renaisance (or how ever you spell it)

Very true,

And if I were still in charge of NW, the :wink: would have been a

ho ho ho! hilarious! if only you knew!

What, that you were over a year overdue on assignments while you found plenty of time to make Splinter and build and texture this map? I don't find that very funny after spending over two years leading NW, and neither should you.

I would do a lot of things differently if I could go back and do it again, most notably being a hell of a lot more strict on what is a viable excuse for incomplete work.

So my lack of dedication is shown by splinter? Which was like what? 90% done befoer I joined NW? How about your NS work that you worked on under the pretense of you're in a mapping "ditch" while your NW mapping assignments were pushed asside and than given up? Sorry I was at school spending most of my time working on school work. Cause as I see it my portfolio isn't exactly exagerrated with work that I did while neglecting NW.

Spend most of the hours of your day managing 25-30 people and a couple hundred tasks spread out between them and ask that again.

PV seems to be able to handle it while being kind and fair to everyone rather than having a sudden elitist attitude. He answers questions and responds fairly to everyone rather than "leaving" only to come back and throw around the people who work for him around simply because they call you on the fact you NEVER seemed to support the underlings who worked the project. And this is all I'm going to say about this matter.

you are quick tojudge, but you find it hard to care about some people, especially me.

I know I have nothing to do with this but please dont argue.

Welcome back to Doom 3 Level Editing where all ur depth defying shadows.. are born.

lol, Im working on an outside level that dont hurt you when you bretahe i hate that lol, ill think of a good storyline for it so you can't ask questions.

why do you use patches instead of "half-life rocks" (triangle method)? Its alot easier and faster. it would take you about a day to get all the terrain done.

patches are the win reminds me of q3

I just gave it a go, and it took me around 40 minutes to set it up, get the camera to co-operate, and make a hollowed out room with one texture. All while following a tutorial as well. This is taking longer to get used to than UnrealEd.

Kage, you suck so like theres no surprise there :biggrin: Anyway you bastards, i hate you all, i can't afford the game and even if i could i don't have a dvd drive so i can't install it. hoho.

Hey, the monkey talks. How about that. :razz:

Anyway you bastards, i hate you all, i can't afford the game and even if i could i don't have a dvd drive so i can't install it. hoho.

DVD? My copy is on 3 CDs. Surely you have a CD drive?

Seriously, can anyone point me to a tutorial that helps you just get used to this editor and tells you how everything works? The camera alone is driving me slightly insane, and sometimes when I try to make a brush bigger it just drags it across the workspace, and sometimes it doesn't...help! I be confuzled! Arg!

3 CD's? why not just get the 1 DVD?

3 CD's? why not just get the 1 DVD?

Because GAME didn't have the DVD version.

Yeah well, GAME are a bunch of overpricing loons so that doesn't suprise me.

let me get a computer first and the time, and we'll see whats up with d3 :smile: ~ I can't wait for halflife still. I think it'll be better than d3 in my opinion.

yes I know they are different games, but I like HL2's strengths better

HL2 still looks nicer to me and always has, but I'm still looking forward to D3. Must be just about out over here by now...think its this friday.

On the topic of learning other editors, I installed softimage last night and tried a couple of tutorials. While I am obviously new to it, and perhaps there are acceptable workarounds, I found the inability to do things such as save your custom GUI layout or save light (and no doubt other object) property presets pretty debilitating. Some actions such as moving the camera around seemed exceptionally tricky - I can appreciate that not all editors will feature Hammer style camera movement but the tutorials seemed to cover no rotate ability, and orbiting and then panning is not a suitable method. Having zoom linked to the same mode as panning, but dollying in and out a seperate one again, seemed insane to me, as surely you are more likely to want to move the camera position in and out while panning, as opposed to zooming it in and out?!

Meh, I may persevere or I might go back to learning Milkshape or 3Dsmax (if I can ever find a version that will work on my copy of XP :sad: ), both seemed far nicer to me.

3dsmax for gaming and Maya for animation is still my personal preferences. Luckily I'll be advanced in both soon :smile: I hope there will be exporters for 3dsmax and maya for HL2 cause I dont want to learn another modeling package.

According to the source FAQ on the collective website, exporters will be provided for both of those.

Yeah well, GAME are a bunch of overpricing loons so that doesn't suprise me.

I got it for ?24.99, so neh-neh. :razz:

And Reno, the damn thing came out in the UK last Friday. Go get it already. :razz:

Not everyone has a disposable income of the average 6th form/college student :razz:

Particularly the Scottish, who spend their money on Irn Bru and cheap, nasty lager! :biggrin:

I can possibly afford that, but with Burnout 3 coming out soon with 6 player online racing on Xbox Live, it may have to get my money instead :razz: And I call myself a level designer...

yeah i htink hl2 will be better handsdown thats my personal opinion. i need to learn 3dsm and i think itsgoing to be a rather hard feat.

I'm going to learn on that free XSI thing, since I'm a cheap bastard.

Yeah, HL2 appeals more to me than Doom 3. But we'll see how mod-able it ends up being I guess.

I think the general point is that its the most moddable thing since sliced bread...

...That didn't really work.

I think the general point is that its the most moddable thing since sliced bread...

Yeah, I'm thinking about making a tactical squad-based mod for sliced
bread. Who knows, maybe I might even move on to dinner rolls! :rolleyes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irn_Bru
"Irn Bru's advertising campaigns have always been very different to those of other commercial soft drinks...including...supposed-advert for a cleaning product called "Jef", which consists of a small boy in a box, who sucks Irn Bru stains out of clothes."

Far out.

That ad was awesome. 'Jeff in a box!'

LOL, Irn Bru adverts rock, even more comical than Tango adverts :biggrin:

Wee, I'm getting used to this editor now. It's pretty damn impressive, miles more fun to use than UnrealEd. Hasn't really beat Hammer yet, but I only started using it yesterday so that's sort of unfair. :smile:

Any one using the D3 editor knwo hwo to make good lookign rocks?

Wlel uyo get the ptahc tolo and grba the vertcies nda then mvoe them aruond to gte it to loko l33t.

Learn Lightwave. :smile:

I'm not normally one to be anal about spelling and grammer over the internet. But... are you serious? I hope this is a joke.

KnigNic si dislxeic.

oaml

ok well, A I could not read that up there and I htink im ? dislexic or how ever you spell it. Second lightwave is that a modeling program? Ill check into it lol.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the way D3 looks? It looks like a pile of rubbermade bins piled together and then covered in saran wrap. I'm sure the editor is fine, but those aren't visuals I want to be working with.

Yeah, I have to say I prefer HL2's art style and gameplay style more.
BTW, are there any really-really good Doom 3 fan maps out yet with
custom meshes and stuff? I know the Doom 3 importer/exporter has been
released, so it should be possible...
