WIP screenshots

Every other level editing forum has a WIP thread where people can post things they're tinkering with, or projects they have underway. I think it would be kind of cool for everyone to show off what they have going on right now for others to leave feedback on and comment.

I'm redoing Baby I'm Wet since the textures in .42 are not the same as in .5 and the change makes the map look goofy.









Gonna take place during the day and in a TF2 type sandy area with blue highlights instead of green. Only worked on it a day though so not much has come of it yet. I'm rebuilding it from scratch though since there were some novice construction mistakes I made since the original was only my 2nd map :P

why not convert to a bomb map???

I mean... I could? I don't know. i hadn't really thought about it. I don't know of any US bomb servers either. If one pops up I'll do a conversion but for now I'm just gonna focus on the remake. I'm definitely interested in doing bomb maps though. We might do like one or two night a week bomb nights on SO to get people into the groove of playing that every now and then. :)

Looks like a nice style. Probably my favorite of yours after gwy.

too open

Then you are more than welcome not to play it. :)

well, nice idea with that kinda topic :)

hmm, there is already a topic for that purpose: http://www.warsow.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=20194
If we really have a wip topic I think that we should sticky it, and What should write a short description in his first post of what this place is good for.
oh, and yeah, too open :P

The topics last post was 2009-04-24 21:52. Quite a long time ago. I just had never seen this anywhere.

Isn't it sort of cluttered if everyone's WIPs are in the same thread?

Nope. Works remarkably well in other mapping forums I've seen. Especially if it's just a screenshot or two.

second shot smells like a bomb map

Looks real good 36. What type of map is it?

its 3 different maps, first 2 are bomb maps, 3rd is a duel map i started last night at 6am :D

Yeah kinda looked like it, I wasn't sure. 3rd one looks really fun.

So is there any reason bomb maps have to look like tf2/cs and not futuristic? Just wondering, since for the most part they seem themed away from the warsow style.

Oh, and btw, thats not a criticism, just a matter of the game's identity, imo. The bomb maps I've seen are quite nice.

I personally think the warsow style is tacky and boring and that there is a lot more that could be done with the game other than making everything futuristic. I think the Bomb maps are a huuuge step in the right direction as far as diversifying styles goes. I've never tried to stray too far into TF2 style, but I do like the palette better than trying to figure out what mood of "tron" I'm up for mapping. :)





trying to get the lighting right on these rock faces is going to take a hell of a long time :(

Your maps don't look either and I quite like the style. A lot of warsow maps don't do futuristic well enough. I like jerms_ctf2, wctf2, acidwdm2, wdm1 etc, but they're in with some that don't really seem right. TF2 style isn't bad, it just makes the game look like its copying. Getting a unique style isn't easy I guess.

Btw, that pic looks great. I'll definitely play that map.

I'll just put this here





No, it's still a WiP, yes, i am still working on it. (Just started yesterday after a few months)
