L4D Back Alley City

[Modifier]

Just some L4D map im working on. Its set in really gritty American city. You start off in a Back alley. Should be a pretty cool map.

Comments welcome.

(I hate the way how it only shows 3/4 of the pic)

I really like the layout you have here man.
Looks really rundown and believable.
I look forward to seeing the rest of this level.


Oh and btw it does show the entire screenshot so no worries.

Looks really good. Nice atmosphere and mood.

Only thing that bothers me is the catwalk above. It looks like it is defying gravity. Some supports would help that.

I was hoping someone would pick up in that, cos i didnt know whether it looked right or not. I might just get rid of it completly.

Anyhow here is another update, this time a video :). i was just testing how the level so far would be with zombies in it, and it turned out to be a very playable and satisfying zombie killing experiance. so here is the vid, tell me what you think :)

Havnt had a repsonse in 7 days. Can I at least be achnoledged? Or is it more or less pointless posting anything on here -_-

[birdsirhc]

Well i like the new buildings
More so the one with the pipes behind the grate.

might be a little bit empty in it though.

also, the wall to the left with the texture that glows purple... do you know a way to correct that? i have that problem now and then




Try posting the IMG code so it just uploads the pic straight here . :D

[Modifier]

Thats just a texture shader problem i beleive. you just gotta change textures. I recently channged the texture to something which looks exatctly the same but no purple.

Anyhow, heres some bigger pics which you all like :P

People these days are so lazy they cant even click on a link XD


This Picture is a updated version of before, hence no purple and also I added some stairs and stuff to change geomotary level to make it more interesting and in some sense realistic, this also blocks the players view a little bit so he doesnt know quite what is around the corner.

Just another angle. also can you see that utility pole with the wires and stuff. That adds a bit of a eary mood to it. This can also guide the player without him realising it, as tall things often grab attention. if interesting or not.

Just an overall view of the map so far, Only been working on this for Just under 2 weeks so im pleased with the progress.

Just that tunnel but in a "BIG PIC" format :P

I'm liking it a lot. I dont know but it seems somewhat open on the streets. I would suggest if you dont already have indoor areas in your map.

Keep up the amazing work though.

[AlexG]

This is really coming together man. The street is looking chaotic in a good way.

- Not sure about the hummer, it looks out of place.

- Use the streetlights to illuminate the street. It will help to add more atmosphere.

[Wisecraka]

I guess now that I look at it again the streets are good it is just that looking down at them from the angles you had made them look empty. :mrgreen:

[Modifier]

Thanks alot guys :) glad your enjoying my work.

On another note...

I JUST OVERCLOCKED MY CPU TO 3.3GHZ ROFL!

[Wisecraka]

what so you can put down more props at the sametime? ;)

Yup XD

[Nemesis]

looks awesome mate!

[birdsirhc]

just a minor thing, the only thing that is buggin me a little is the sidewalks.
they look a little bit high. but its not really that big of a deal. not sure if you were crouching or not. and i agree with alex on the hummer thing

the interiors look really nice.
cant wait to see more

[Modifier]

Thanks guys for the feed back.

Sorry i havnt been online for the past 2-3 days. been a bit busy.

Anyhow, the hummer will be changed to something more appropriate so thanks for picking up on that. I was crouching at the time, so the sidewalks look taller than they are XD.

here is just another WiP screenshot. It looks similar to previous road but with Towns and citys they are usually quite similar.

http://s667.photobucket.com/albums/vv38/Modifier_Photos/newpart.jpg

I know it looks really shite, but thats because there is hardly any lighting and its hard to see the deatil. so apoligise for that.

[Modifier]

Ok More WiP Pics. Tell me what you think, still very WiP though.

I wonder if it has the cash for clunkers?

I'm loving the progress, so far. It may benefit from some custom textures. I saw a tutorial awhile back on adding additional skins to models. I haven't tried it out yet, but you could add a new texture to that model and it would be a car dealership, all of a sudden!
