Here's some Example of my new Texture works :



I just took some Photo from the Walkway in front of my House and made it fit together as Texture, addet a Bump, Specular ( Gloss ) and Normal Map ( Made with crazy Bump ).
I think this one really looks pretty good.

Just imagine what's possible with Nexuiz 2.4 GFX ... O_o ...
by the Way i really like V 2.4, Good work AT Team ! ...

Very nice! Crazy bump is fantastic for getting nice normal maps from photos.

Taking advantages of the new features

The texture looks really good !
So do the new effects

Some other shots:

looks awesome C.Brutail

maybe you can use some wooden stuff as eyecandy. im sure this will look and suits to this meival theme.

Lol, do I really see my cavern on the last shot?
You should make (build) your own, that one is horrible If I'd some basic 3D modelling skills I'd surely replace that crap
Btw. the tree looks cool, I'll borrow that one sometime, if you don't mind

same here

I already borrowed me that tree from a nexuiz map

No no no, you might misunderstood me there, sorry for that I really enjoyed mapping "Hot Grounds", imho that's my best map (yet), and I'm contented with it. What I wanted to say is, that that cavern has not turned out the way I wanted originally, it contains lot's of gaps and overlapping brushes. Wieved with a more critical eye, it's a crap, I should replace it with something better mapped/modelled (I just don't know if it worths it).
But I'm really happy if you or someone else likes it, and places it in another map too, (so it means it can't suck THAT BIG TIME ), that's why I made it and released the map source too. Tho I just strongly advice to study it, and build your own using my work as a guide about what to do/not to do.
About those trees, please PM me where I can get them

Cortez, I love that water scene. That's really cool.

For anyone who want's it -> here's the first Person model of my latest shotgun Model.

Install Notes :

Just put the two folders from the zip into the data folder from nexuiz 2.4.
If u want the weapon with shirt and pant colors, just copy the File "shotgun_TEX_shirt.tga" from the textures folder, rename the copyd file to "shotgun_TEX_pants.tga".
The color Textures will be placed additiv on the Weaponmodel, so u just have to make everythin shirt colored black in the pants file and everythin pants colored black in the shirt file.

Looks good I'm using it now

that was a quick reply torus ...
-> by the way i tested ur announcer sounds ... there's one matter with them -> they are to silent just make them a bit louder and they will fit great into the game ...

I like the countdown sounds when Ammo is empty in Minstagib ...

Yea, they are really quiet. I need to make em much louder.

Doc- I found a problem- your shotgun works awesomely, but the weapon models everyone else is holding don't change. :\

There are three different models.. for weapons in first person view, weapons others hold and the one laying around..
I guess he forgot at least one of them. Or just didn't have time to do them.

no i didn forget them ... and time is enough too ... but i wasnt able to compile a workin md3 model ... <_< ... the two missing models are safed as md3 ... thats why i didn make any of them till now ... i wish only one of my tools would work ... -_- ... but they wont ...

I used the zym importer to get the geometery into blender and the weapon exporter to output the md3's. It's not scaled perfectly but here is the shotgun (blender file included):

I tried to do a concept. I know it sucks, but it's a good start

Finally i found some time to start working on a map again.
Still very alpha. Layout is not finished. Lighting is way too dark, but i like how it (slowly) comes along.






btw.: is "magmagaol" a good name ?

Hmm i like the images, looking really cool. But magmagaol would need a fair more amount of magma/lava then is currently visible on the screens

Please do not laugh

Cool, Dave! Is that just going to be a Nex server browser or can it be used with other games too?

[Happy to see my servers featured ]

It's using quakestat for querying, so it should support anything qstat will, which is like every fps game ever made.
Everything is designed to be fairly reusable, but at least initially it will be Nexuiz-only since that is all I play.

Then again, once it's feature-complete, I was planning on removing it's dependency on qstat and writing my own query-er to get more detailed info like team scores, player models & colors, and the server's game mode/settings.
It's still very early and I haven't had much time for this recently, so anything could happen!

That information is impossible to get. I know because I've written my own query-er bunch of times
This is what you can get with status, which is the the most deatailed info you can get:

Here's a new ctf I'm making , trying to stay 'in the box'





It's got one of them gravity lift tele's in it. Still haven't tuned it right tho.

looks.. weird (in the good meaning )

The second screenshot reminds me of that Halo 1 map Damnation.
