So I said I would make a Spleef arena. Well, here it is.









4 hours, 4 compiles
Will be released shortly after playtesting. The button resets the arena by killing all blocks and respawning their template.

I made this the other day for the lulz. Tw34k told me about an old CS 1.6 map like this so I had to try it.

[Tw34k]

No mirrors in half life so for reflective floors in 1.6 you made the floor transparent and mirrored the entire room upside down.

Started dicking around in the Portal 2 editor.
After 5 hours of work (including relearning or learning how to do things [box dropper]) I've got this.




Tips, suggestions?
I haven't been in hammer for quite some time, not for more than 10 minutes at least.

2nd screenshot is of a slightly older version, only difference is the water is lower and a few textures were changed. Most noticeably the texture around the exit door is now portal panel rather than metal.

My first ever map (epic pile of crap that took me days):



Started re-making it. Its already way better and Ive only been working on it off and on for the past few hours.
I still need to add the outside walls, this is just the pillars/ceiling.



Id love some feedback.

Keep going. You're definitely off to a good start.

Hey guys, I've been gone for a while, but I'm back and I thought I'd update you guys on the progress of my Bullworth Academy replication. HERE WE GO:






I'm always at my best when working with reference pictures. In this case, I took tons of screenshots in Bully. Coming out really good. The two hallways I have done actually linked together without me even looking at the ends. So that's cool.

I put the construction textures on for the hell of it. All textures are temporary, of course. The windows will probably need to be made into a model. The brushwork railing is temporary, unless I can't find some proper models, find out how to model them myself, or get someone to make them.

Which could be a while.

[Spycrabz]

Construction textures as dev textures?

brilliant

Looks like you got the hang of it. The lighting could use a bit of tweaking, but it looks fine as it is. For further rooms I recommend you add more depth. Remember to increase the difficulty as you progress from one room to another.

What do you think?

[NotExactly]

Fuck is up with the texturing on those trees on the left of the first picture?

[J!m]

the water looks a bit bad

[Appolox]

You have so many lights which do not light things up properly at all, you should try to fix it.

[reda]

What do you think?

[Disco_Potato]

I think that light on the wall is way too bright. It shouldn't be anywhere near as bright as the sunlight.
I'd almost say that you should just have the light turned off.

Why so many smoke detectors?

Dirty, ruined walls and floor, while the counter is quite clean in comparison, it should be more greyed out with stains and chips all over, light looks quite pleasant, I guess if light had flickering and be more of orange colour then it would be fine, it would look more abandoned.

Its not abandoned, its more of a used, old and poor look I guess.

The lighting doesn't match the skybox

with the lighting in the door all in order (1/2 doors - in the shade)

Why?
I was set up light_env env_sun and in accordance with these parameters https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Sky_List
With this, too, everything is fine, just a bad screenshot

Wheatley enjoying dat wheat

[mopman999]

I imagined wheatley wearing a cowboy hat and chewing on wheat but this is nice

[Shirky]

Is wheatly in a wheat field some sort of pun?

Here's one.

[glitchvid]

Been working on some textures.


Its just a quick map I threw together.

[Pyth]

Looks like you have a mix of light_spot and normal light, try sticking to one or the other if all of the lights are meant to be similar.

Nah, I think I just forgot a light_spot on one, and a light on the other.
Just using either looks like shit, lights don't just project pure light and leave the fixture black; light bounces and creates a diffuse light around the projecting entity.

here are previous versions.
