Re: DXMP_StrangeDocks
I love the lights you've put in, the problem I have with it now is the really dark spots, people will undoubtedly abuse these areas by camping in them with rifles. Personally I use a blueish light to "make" night time scenes (acting like moonlight) as really for a multiplayer map even the dark areas must be lit to some degree.
If you look at DXMP_Amtrak there's only one little area that is very dark and yet it's enough for several people to abuse. Although admittedly I can't really see very well from your video as it's extremely dark on my screen. You can get some nice moonlight effects mixing in with your regular lights, you can go for a light blue, dark blue or almost a purple colour for good moonlight effects.

Re: DXMP_StrangeDocks
Great stuff.
Just one thing. You can't texture movers. You need to retexture the original brush/es and then make it/them a mover again.
Majin, you're talking about Horizon Beach I think. It's my favourite Godz map, besides EpionOutcast's "Ship". Uses the liberty island music and it's very moody. Has 20mm cannons in the fort. On the beach there is a hole with a MIB and some 20mm inside, you can shell the fort from the hole. Also some breakable walls in other tunnels between the beach and fort.
It reminds me very much somehow of the movie "Apocalypse Now".

Doesn't the "Show Polys" in the Mover menu allow you to change the textures?ShadowRunner wrote: Just one thing. You can't texture movers. You need to retexture the original brush/es and then make it/them a mover again.

Re: DXMP_StrangeDocks
Maybe it's that way in UnrealEd 1. I know for a fact that you can change mover textures in UnrealEd 2.

Re: DXMP_StrangeDocks
I can't speak for UnrealED2 or whatever it is. It wasn't designed for DX and also works that way.

Re: DXMP_StrangeDocks
I think it's why you see in DX maps there are always Workboxes containing elevator brushes and cabinets outside the map.
Would have been fun to see their faces when told that JC wasn't going to fight for Unatco anymore, only NSF.

If I reply unnecessarily and say "ok cool", then I've bumped it for you to attach night version...
