« on: August 04, 2008, 05:19:23 PM »
Hi there,

I'm working on a map together with my brother (Maarten), it will be a veeerry big outdoor map with lots of action. Shouldn't take too long to finish it, hopefully we'll fnish it this summer.  O0

Looks awesome. The first screen kind of reminds me of Red1.

Glad to see you guys are mapping again. ;)

Oh no!
Not the van Oostrum Bro's again!
RUN!!! :o

Nah, screens are looking great (reminds me a bit of Imperium though... ;D)
But that highway in the mountains is a little too straight ahead to look realistic
and why don't you post screens in high-res?

Looks (high)way much better then...  :)

Thanks. :)
As for hi-res: this map is intended for classic duke, so that's why the screenshots are without the HRP. Besides, in this case classic mode just looks better (the HRP rock-textures don't really fit this map)

I don't see anything wrong with that highway...

Also yeah it's looking good, glad to see something with really a lot of open space for a change.

The highway might do with an yellow/white stripe in the middle, as most have, perhaps?

And the desert/mountain area place does remind me of the RED maps, ah, quite scary, hehe. It just misses some darkness and some creepy sounds and unexpected events then.

I do wonder how the map will turn out.

Edit: I hope to finish my own map in, if possible, this last week of vacation!
Do you also have vacation, or did it end rather soon? Or most people atleast have vacation here in Holland. :P

Shit's looking good, especially the first two screenshots. I'm not a big fan of the very last one, it does feel a bit too empty, but since it's outdated it's all good, and it's probably a deliberate choice too. Your mapping abilities are something to be trusted :D (and the city scape in the background... promising !)

Thanks for the comments guys. :)
Maybe the road will get some white stripes,  if the amount of walls allow it.
And yeah it's a deliberate choise to make that specific part look empty, to make it seem even more stretched out and deserted.

Clear The Coast is under beta-testing!  8) Here is a the very very last screen of the map. Nothing special, just a random hall :)

Looking quite good, though i have some suggestions, perhaps use the same wood thing you gave the uhh, wall as a sprite on that wall next to the couch and such? Else the bottom of the brown texture seems a bit odd like that, repeating somewhat.
Or whatever way to explain this.

The clock also seems a bit oversized, but oh well, unless detail isnt going to be the main thing in this map.

And wish i'd had some betatesters, my map could do with some, currently.

If i recall correctly, your dutch too?(Nederlands? :P)
Maybe you'd like to betatest my map sometime? Testing the crusher, and who knows more, would be great.
