Frontpage-Maps

So what do you guys think of the new maps posted on the frontpage??

personaly I really love the gero map, but the namek thing is cool to
( good job ready )

Those maps look excellent. I like the Gero map as well, preobably my favorite of them. Esf is looking really good, heh, with the new explosions, and the particle system harsens made, it seems that it's not running on the HL engine.

No particle system yet .

A light entity

I've told you before and I'll tell you again, those textures are really nice DJ. I don't know how you do it .

*Edit*

Now my favourite (just by looking mind you) would be the namek map, just because it's textures are better than gero's. They look so sexy . And the variance on the ground, not only having one type of grass and some bald patches he has two types of grasses and bald patches, plus those cliffs really stand out. I might have to go to the bathroom for this one guys . The type of brushwork looks similar from the pictures, so I'm basing my descision on the texturing.

*Edit*

looks nice

do you even know what a particle is?! ... to make it visible, you have to use a sprite ... for the explosions particles, its the smoke sprite, and at the middle of the explosion some more sprites with that additive-glowing-explosion-sprite-thingie with fixed axis ... :O

how about we get back on topic ..

well, they sort of look the same, except for different textures, and a different landscape layout. hopefully there is something that makes it different form the others, other than just terrain.

The maps are great, Ready really does belong on the ESF team. I can't wait to see what else he has up his sleeve

wow amazing maps , gj esf team mappers

great, love em both, only due to my tastes i'll prolly be playing Gero more.
something about....steam and 2-bit textures...made me wonder...if you dont have steam, you wont be able to use the maps that have 24-bits textures?????

and are these maps using those 24-bits textures?

Today we have some shots of DJ ready's sexy new maps, Namek's Revival, and Gero. <u>He has started expirementing with 24 bit
textures (steam feature)</u> and as you can see the results are pleasing. Both maps played very well at our playtest this past
Sunday. They offer nice wide spaces to fight in and lot's of cliffs to wall jump off of. Enjoy :0)[/

There's ya answer

nope not my answer....

how will WON people react to this 24-bit texture thing?
coz i dont want steam

thnx (i think )

Didn't somebody say somewhere that the 24 bit tetxture works on won as well?

I knew that they were some kind of particle thing, just was refering back to this '''''''.

I think you should add some water to the Namek map since Namek was 89 % water , but other than that its is very good
