It's time for a decision on what our clanmap(s) should be. I will showcase two former MH clanmaps, that could easily be revamped to work for us. I will also give the option for a whole new one. As always, the decision is up to the clan. Another decision to make, is to remove or keep old houses owned by previous MH members in them. MHQTerrain has a house by Cooper, Doko, and I don't remember who else.

Option 1: -[Hell]-HQ

Advantages: Fits the 'Mapping Hell' theme
Disadvantages: Requires major cleaning and revamping

Option 2: MHQTerrain

Advantages: Nice terrain already made, many nice buildings already there
Disadvantages: Does not fit with 'Hell' theme, requires a bit of cleanup

Option 3: Fuck it all let's do it all over again

Advantages: Allows a little more space for ingenuity
Disadvantaes: Will take a long time

The maps are attached

Option 4 : New one with some things taken from the old ones. Things that fit the theme, of course.

If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put your sister and I side by side.

Sweet

Feel free to put that in there

yeah im down with that too

vampirefrog

how about something like MHQTerrain, but with a hellish underground section

Apollo

Yes!

Cute and fluffy with kittens on top, and hell underneath!

Leaked walls looks nice, but do we want a more recent themed dungeon, or a medieval type underground torture chamber?

I kind of like that idea. You ever played Amnesia? They have a sort of gothic castle, but the ambiance makes it hellish. Perhaps a multi-tiered, multi-roomed underground section, where different members can theme rooms so that they fit the hellish theme, with their own twist. On top, can be like a nice castle. The underground is the catacombs, where the real hell takes place.

What do y'all think?

vampirefrog

There was a prince of persia game, i think sands of time in which he discoveres an ancient castle that ended up underground.

How about we make it so the rooms look more and more ancient as you descend more and more. the top rooms can look modern-ish and gets more and more ancient as it goes down, then it's just caves and underground lakes with weird luminescent fish.

vampirefrog

we should get some skeleton mapmodels

Sweet

Yes. Similar to Amnesia. You can even see light shining into the upper rooms, so that you can get the feel of possible escape.

Luminescent fish are a must.


Zoocata

Pretty sure Jake could help out with those mapmodels ;3

Fairypiss

so when do we plan on starting this awesome project? I'll be on later today "like 4 hours from now" if you guys want to get started?

Just looking at the screenshots, HellHQ map looks damn sexy. I love all the gothic/evil/dungeon style theme.

(btw i have a load of dungeon/mythical textures lying about, i'll post them when i've finished heightmaps/normalmaps for them).

The image posted above; which I have conveniently attached to this post... We have GOT to make that ENTIRE layout. :D
I am going to pull in that picture as a template.

The level of intricacy would be great. With some variation to height in various places, ( add stairs and shit ) it would make an excellent little section to hide under the map somewhere. Drop a person in and let them try to get out.

Also, some rooms could overlap so as to let plays fall down, but not get back up.

If I could rearrange the alphabet, I'd put your sister and I side by side.

Hot skybox's:
http://www.3delyvisions.com/skf1.htm

They seem to be in the right format, suppose just rename them properly and resize to 512x512.

All they require is: "If used in 3d game please give credit to 3delyvisions."

Awesome. I think a night-time skybox would be appropriate for hell. But should it also be in outer space? It needs to mean something, like - it's hell, but it's not on earth, maybe earth can be in the skybox, so you'd know it's really an unseen celestial body that mirrors all of mankind's deepest fears? Maybe we can also make an earth mapmodel in the center of one of the halls, so as to make it look like a tormentor target - click here to torment this area?

TL;DR: hell in space?

Apollo

That one is prettty noice. Lets do it.

WE'RE DOING THIS MAN!

Plan: Underground Dungeon, per Vampi's map, where rooms go down in elevation, and look older and older

It will be hellish and scary, and an ambiance of danger will be very real

This will be in (mapping) Hell, and by looking out at the skybox, you can easily tell.

unixfreak

Found a huge list of skybox's, funny enough alot of them are already in sauerbraten  :D

My favorites:
Hell,


Plague,
