My map for Killing Floor:

The third shot looks too dark. With the light on the painting as bright as it is, there would be some reflection in the room, especially if the painting is framed in glass, so I'd add a point light near the painting, maybe even as dim as .0625, more likely around .125. I really like what you've done with shadows in the 4th shot though.

 

[xMurphyx]

Thank you! I made the refracting light a little brighter. From 16 to 30something.

Damn awesome one too ;D

I've been trying to figure out a way how to tweak the lightning for unreal engine 3.
I ended up with a technique that can simulate prebaked ambient occlusion in the light maps.
in the first screen shot its the normal lightning technique : directional light + skylight.
the second screen shot is the technique I came up with 128 secondary directional lights + 1 main directional light. the 128 directional lights(bouncing lights) play the role of the skylight.

It looks nice. I can't help but think you could have done it with less then 128 lights though.

Along with how that will look on un-lightmapped meshes, maybe it'll be a bit resource heavy?

 

[choco]

I haven't tried it on vertex lit meshes yet, I'll give it a try to see if there is a performance hit.
And yea 128 lights(rays) might be too much calculation do to (around 5 min to build the lights for the test level I'm showing you here)
64 rays might be a good quality/rendering time for a whole level.

Phase 4 anyone?

Picked it up again after a hiatus, beta soon hopefully. Damn blocking volumes.

My remake of Obey, from Warsow, with some weapon/item changes, minor geometry changes, and a few extra additions for UT's style- like wall jumps to areas, big lift jumps, etc.

It's my first real map that I've actually spent more than a day on. There are some problems with texture alignment and a few spaces where the texture disappeared(probably from my bad idea for BSP interlocking), but I think it's almost completed.

Also, just a quick question, how many nodes should be added for bots? I've played the bot with my current path setup and it seemed to use the jump pad, lift jump up to an area, and move around a lot.

Finished the visuals on my Eversion-themed map after a long hiatus. Who knows, maybe someday I'll actually finish a map! Teleporters are still not working properly (although the UIScene suggestion from 3DBuzz seems to be the most promising- know any good tuts for those?).

 

[Darkdrium]

In any case, that map looks great Shivan

Another Killing Floor map:

 

[Kantham]

How you get these shadows set up like that? Or does Killing Floor has it's own dynamic lighting system?
I dig the theme. A lot, just seems more fit for my UT or Gears.

map for the haunted im working on.

 

[Mclogenog]

awesome stuff Murphy. I love the shadows.

 

[xMurphyx]

Or does Killing Floor has it's own dynamic lighting system?

All standard UnrealEngine 2 fare. It has bloom, but it's not on in the screenshots.

Thanks.

 

[Kantham]

Ok call me silly but I was certain that this was UE3 stuff.

 

[xMurphyx]

Haha, I'll take that as a compliment.
