Just a bit of shellfish egomania here; as it's taking me a wee bit longer to build my level, I couldn't resist showing off for a moment...   Let's hope I'll get round to finishing it this lifetime ;-) Cool, huh? Anyway, apologies for this little mind-trip of mine... Striffelbuur.

Can you walk on that grating that goes around the ladder, or is it just a transparant texture with two sides of grating? Great level, nice window effect!IP: Logged |

What a very cool level ,and I was wondering if you could submit those textures to me because those textures look pretty cool.
Oh, by the way, what program did you use to make those textures?IP: Logged |

Well, there you have it ;-) It's indeed a transparent texture with opacity 2 switched on; still thinking about making the grating a bit more thin at the point where it goes around the ladder, so that it doesn't come as a complete surprise when Lara falls off ;-) Best regards,

Well, I'm still mainly working on the textures to make some more outside panoramas... Once I'm done, the result will be made publicly available. quote:

I've used a Sony Mavicam to make the photographs; I then edited the textures in PhotoShop 6. Best regards,

Thanks! Just had to show off for a moment ;-) quote:

Well, you don't have to... the digi-cam I used is the property of our company, so I was lucky enough to have access to this nice little gadget, but there are other ways as well; you can take normal photographs, and put them on a scanner; scanners are reasonably cheap, so you're bound to know someone who has got one... Considering that you need to reduce the resolution quite a bit anyway, the quality of the original graphic is not of paramount importance. Greetz & best of luck,

Well, it'll probably still take me some time to finish it; I've only done the architecture now, and I'm thinking of making this one just sort of a small demo-level to show what can be achieved by creating one's own texture-map and building something else than tombs, tombs, and even more tombs ;-) Once it's finally finished I'll probably post it on our own site at http://www.usmedia.org Best regards,
Striffelbuur.
