This is looking good.

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

On a second look, the scene could use some lights to bring life to the architecture. It is a bit too evenly lit. The stained glass windows are ideal candidates

Problem is, there are no lights the other side of the glass so it would look wrong, but I will see what a custome selflite glass with a nice low value looks like.... On the dank, foggy, washed out night the mission is set the colours are just as they should be..

Very nice!

 

Biker has clearly brought his (already great) graphics to the next level. The scene has so impressive organic patchwork it is difficult to discern where the basic boxy geometry is.

 

Maybe you should share your secrets by writing a patch mastery wiki-article?

A distinct Rocksbourg vibe there...

Not meaning to beat the "woo, Dark Mod is where it's at" drum, but missions like Rocksbourg, while beautifully constructed, kind of make my eyes hurt. I think the Dark Engine lighting couldn't keep up with everyone's texturing ambitions.

 

...End of heresy.

Every time someone posts such a beautiful shot, I hang my head, say, "Oh well," and go back over my WIPs to play catch-up.

 

Nice work, BD.

 

Hey man don't sweat it, with each map comes more experience. I'm sure I'll enjoy playing yours just as much as his. :)

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

Biker, dude, this look almost photo-realistic! I'm very much looking forward to your FM ^^

My Eigenvalue is bigger than your Eigenvalue.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).

      Well then, it's been about a week since I released my first FM and I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised by its reception. I had expected half as much interest in my short little FM as I received and even less when it came to positive feedback, but I am glad that the aspects of my mission that I put the most heart into were often the most appreciated. It was also delightful to read plenty of honest criticism and helpful feedback, as I've already been given plenty of useful pointers on improving my brushwork, level design, and gameplay difficulty.
      I've gotten back into the groove of chipping away at my reading and game list, as well as the endless FM catalogue here, but I may very well try my hand at the 15th anniversary contest should it materialize. That is assuming my eyes are ready for a few more months of Dark Radiant's bright interface while burning the midnight oil, of course!
