Post news Report RSS Twin Bridges: From Concept To Completion

A visual walkthrough of Project:Valkyrie's "Twin Bridges" map, from initial concept to deliverable.

Posted by on

From original concepts by Jordan "Captain N Tenneal" Ratzlaff...



... to final completion with mapping by Vic "Woe Kitten" Krengel, texture work by Jordan "Captain N Tenneal" Ratzlaff and Frank "JohnnyQwest" Rapoza, and lava effects by Tony "Omega" Sergi.



We'll be updating regularly in the coming week as we continue to wait for the release of the SDK. Expect in-game screenshots, videos, and more!

I think you mean lava, TKAzA :p

But anyway, I think it looks very nice.

just an off the wall question.. how can you determine how detailed it is.. you're looking at one screenshot from way far above away from it? lol.

Mainly most of the screens show the entire area, but of course there might be more hat hasn't been shown. Still good looking map, and this mod is coming along very nicely.

Get your lightmaps set up correctly with the smoothing groups around those rounded corners and it will look even more authentic... I like the clean sci-fi look it has. The lava is a little small in scale for the size of the open area.. if you check out pics of lava in large open areas, you will notice large dark sports that have cooled with some expulsions of magma in certain area from the flow or even a turbulent chamber that would be underneath... just a suggestion...

Wait, what? I have to have Orange Box to play this, now?

Lame. Well, that pretty much killed all anticipation I once had. Anybody wanna spot me $50?

You shouldn't once the source 2007 base cache file is made (the main thing we're waiting for, not exactly the SDK since we already have everything else)
