Now I need feedback about brightness. Can you spot the small logo in the lower-right corner?

what can I say..ehm.. add coronas :D
kidding. Nice ones. but why is the pyro so 'isometric' while the fog effect has all the perspective pumped up? and why doesn't the pyro get a little of the colored lights?

I got it. No glow, or limited glow. Solid red, partial highlights, bare orange gradient. The image I ended up with surprised me, I guess you will appreciate too. Be patient...

(p.s. you can extract a non-jpeg version of that bg using hamm tool on the d1 big file. it is a pcx format)

weird. :)
All those primaries... it's too colorful an glossy, not very friendly to the descent atmospheres. The flares are too large.

Don't forget the slight red glow on the lower rocks. Do you mean the rock behind the letters? Great job! I think it would look best if the letters were red-painted metal and scratched to all hell. What do you mean with 'painted'? i thought the letters were intended to be glowing. But I admit they'r...

Another Mod proposal: H-L2

The Ut2k4 mod thread, as i see, is dead. I was just thinking about this option. That's even more theoric than the ut2k4 mod, because i don't have the needed c++programming skills by now(a miracle if i can correctly use a pointer :roll:, but good in modeling and level editing), so it's up to you. But...

yes, you're right. When i did the secondaries, about 6 months ago, i didn't have all the knowledge wich i've got now and wasn't able to make such (i think) high quality renders like the phoenix. Obviously i've stored all the source files for every item so I can do some "remakes" after i co...

okay, okay, you've convinced me. Wow, seems we have to do a lot of work to give the game a descent look! A new HUD, a cockpit, new textures(many could be recycled from UT), new robots(their models and textures, plus some appropriate AI script :oops:!) Man, this project is the occasion to give descen...

I know, however hl2 is just coming out in August(I hope..).

Just a question: what lets us know that a descent-like game (i mean, the only particular thing to create is a zero-grav vehicle) is surely possible?
Has been already experimentesd that?

I can help here as a modeler, but... i already had this idea a lot of time ago; but i din't think about UT, maybe because i hate its graphics engine. I thought about HALF LIFE 2. The modding tools for the modeling/graphic part is already avaiable (a special version of XSI. You know what is XSI??) Do...
