This map is set in an ancient temple.

I created this map by taking inspiration from architecture created by ancient civilisations, such as Egyptian, Roman and Mayan, Also with Greek and even medieval influences.

Careful attention has been given to lighting to create atmosphere, space and focal points through out the temple.

The musical score is taken from the movie Water World titled Enola swims. Although it isn't exactly music-to-kill-to it creates an atmosphere that blends well with the maps visuals.

That doesn't look half bad at all. I like it, it's a big improvement over the crud you made before.

Try giving the ivy 10 segments and use the twist modifier on them, make them look more "growth" and less "limp dick" so that it feels more alive. Try and do more with the ivy, too; hang it from point to point so it stretches around, make it climb up the pillars, etc...

reminds me of the goldeneye temple Smile

When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself,
First as a dark demon,
As a demon it uses its power to reign death upon the land;
and then it dies.

However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns.
This time as a great hero...

Nice screens. *downloading*

Edit: Wow! Great map!

I really like the way you made it, the music fits nice in it too! But like you sead not really music for a game like renegade.

It reminds me of some adventure/MMORPG games.

The only think i have to say is about the water, it doesn't look to real, both animation and texture itself (maybe you should have made it a little light bleu, just my opinion) look a bit bad compered to the rest of your map.

The fountain healing players is nice too Smile

And i even got lost for a minute in there, and that's nice for a DM map!

That is some nice modeling there. When I first glanced at it I didn't think it was Renegade.

Shocked

I could never come up with something like this lol. I'm truly impressed. Indeed, it doesn't look like Renegade at all. I love it. Reminds me of a first person Age of Empires or something like that.

My only qualm is that the water looks really funky. It might just be my video card but the bump mapping or whatever just doesn't look like it should, I suspect. The water should animate like Islands, right?

Nonetheless, 10/10! :thumbsup:

Just played it and WOW! Everything is perfect on this map, the architecture, the atmosphere, the lighting the sound, I could go on and on, it’s all done great. This is probably one of the best maps that I've ever played for renegade.

11/10

Wow.

Great job with this one. Even though the music doesn't "get you in the mood to kill", it's just as dangerous. It's quite easy to become lulled into a false sense of security by listening to it, only to be jolted awake when you turn the corner to be greeted with a hail of bullets.

My only suggestion, though it's not a big one, is that the pillers in the "pond" area should have allowed you to use them as a short cut to the other side. Not a big thing, but an interesting feature (I think) to consider.

(And hey, if it impresses Aircraftkiller, it MUST be good Razz)

Of the top of my head the outside part has a few unmodified renegade textures and the water texture (both pools) is from C&C_Islands (water_caustic_gridmike.dds), The walls of the lower part of the temple uses a quake texture as it's base.

All of the mesh and all the other textures have been created by myself using photos I took myself or ones found on the internet.

I used the images and textures I gathered and the tools in photoshop to create what you see.

Like...

ren textutre, l10_wall1.TGA

The Rosetta Stone (I think it was this one)

some statue in a wall
http://www.n00bstories.com/image.fetch.php?id=1291528396

Photoshop tools, filters etc...

It's quite an achievement and a good mix of geometry and texturing skills.

I've played this map earlier today, and just, wow. It's the best map I've seen in a long time of ANY gameplay mode. However, I can agree that the vines could be made less flat-looking.

Great jorb.
