So far that's it. Draft-Low-Quality Lightmaps. Shaders not done (for the multicolored sections). Etc.

Instead of using prntscrn you should press F11, which saves it into MyGames\Halo 2\Screenshots at double the res your using.

Thanks!

[Skyline]

I love that glow/shine :0.

[X3RO SHIF7]

looking better!

[Snaver]

Great work sunny :)

[Kornman00]

I was about to suggest that you change the biped settings to do 3p but then I realized how that wouldn't work out for you :-3

Indeed :(

[MasterChief2829]

That last pic looks like Bunker from Goldeneye. :p

[Rob Oplawar]

looking good. as i just said in another thread, lighting is key =P

[SuperSunny]

Some shader work and lighting tests. I think most of what I'm showing now is only going to be there because I'm learning and playing around with the shaders.

Oh snap Sunny those textures are nice. I love the progression from how the panels looked in your first post..to the awsome detail I just saw.

[Patrickssj6]

I love the progression from how the penis looked in your first post..to the awsome detail I just saw.
Sorry couldn't resist.

But yeah you are right :)

[SuperSunny]

Basically custom lightmaps from the help of Jahrain's app and texture baking:

http://i19.tinypic.com/6c4yazn.jpg

As stated, buggy and not too smooth/too contrasted, but it's all being fixed in due time!

[blazedelite]

its coming along nicely will you ever have the map finished for halo ce

[SuperSunny]

Yes indeed I will

[blazedelite]

cool thanks for the info :)

[MasterChief2829]

I'm confused... is the map going to be a hallway? :confused2: :lol:

[SMASH]

There's more to it, that's just one of the main hallways, also, it's probably where he's doing the most experimenting for H2V.

[X3RO SHIF7]

still working on it sunny?

[the1]

you get to see your own shadows in h2v in first person?
wow. now im really looking forward to h2v
i wonder if the ai when looking is intelegent enough to see moving shadows or just shadows for that matter... :P
lol funny that you can't see your own shadow in ce. and yet if you had a light or an effect attached to the biped you could see it as clear as day.
good times :P


and looking amazing as usual sunny. your skillz make mine look shithouse

[SuperSunny]

Beta Test Release! (Release Forums!)

Valkryie H2

--------------

Ok this is a damn early beta. There are many bugs, glitches, unplaced things, bad UV's, bad shaders, bad textures,

bad lighting, ETC.

But it's a map! Play only slayer! Fun fun fun!

-Sunny Sharma/SuperSunny/(Temporarily KalEl1930 Gamertag)

Once it gets confirmed, yes.

h2v really does wonders for this map D:

also, looks like the first person arms and legs could use moar win, anyone mind sending me the bitmaps? I 'd like to repaint them upres.

:awesome:

Too bad if you change the shaders, it does absolutely nothing because they are loaded through shared.map D:

[Lightning]

But if you re-reference them... =o

[Roostervier]

Only if you have hacked tools D:

[X3RO SHIF7]

hawt!

[soccerbummer1104]

l33t. lol. thats just dead sexy.

[Pooky]

For some reason I'm just not as thrilled by this version as the CE version. It looks... bland somehow

[Pooky]

http://img468.imageshack.us/img468/3150/untitledrx3.png

I know it's not the same area, but how come none of the lights are as pretty as this one?

[SuperSunny]

I wish to duplicate the lighting and effects as the CE one, but it's actually really hard. I do hope that the final build of this will have the same effects though. I created my own bloom system for CE. I might have to do the same for H2.

[FireDragon04]

Hope this is right, but i think sunny was running on a low/medium graphics setting, and no aa? If u pump it all up to the top i achieved this image:

http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/7/outskirtspelicancrashpasv4.png (http://www.halocave.net/Outskirts_pelicancrash_pano.png)
(Yes i took that image).

But back to the map in hand, i think its coming along very well, great job sunny.

[Roostervier]

Actually, it just looks like most of those pictures are taken from sapien =S.

OARSHUM

<3 lolbumps on ceiling

[phase]

Eh everything besides the first pic is good.

[Dr Nick]

Those pics look awesome!
I like how the area is damaged at some parts!
Is there going to be some big underground cavern or something?

[Pred1ator]

cave bitmaps are lolugly, but good work overall

[Skyline]

Wow, I love it. Good job.

[Rentafence]

Rock walls look chocolaty :lol:

[Chronos]

A very nice piece of work there Sunny!

[SuperSunny]

cave bitmaps are lolugly, but good work overall

Ah yea, i'm trying to find a good way to do them. Probably going to go for the organic normal mapping method.

[X3RO SHIF7]

caves starting to look better

[DaneO'Roo]

normal maps + caves = :awesome:

[SMASH]

Caves are awesome! Good job Sunny.

[Rentafence]

Im in love with the hallway. the lighting is oh so sex. The light near the tubes make it look like light is pouring in from a window.

[Roostervier]

That last picture is simply amazing :O

[SuperSunny]

http://i14.tinypic.com/4m7ycz8.jpg

I'm experimenting with light volumes. If this goes well, I'll release some tags and a tutorial.

:D It isn't even half done :P

I've portalled it so well that I retain 60+ FPS on a crappy GFX card with crappy specs running on High with 2x AA.

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 1.8 GHZ.
x700.
Gig of ram.

[X3RO SHIF7]

:/ id get another gig od ram and a new video card if i were you lol, and looking better, more sunny-ish lol

[Pooky]

Significantly improved, I knew you could do it ^_^

[DaneO'Roo]

fucking hot. Love the hanging lights.

[Chronos]

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, amazing.

[Elite Killa]

I'm in love.

[SuperSunny]

I'm in love.

:D

[dg]

I am liking the teleporter. Great job.

[Dr Nick]

We gotta keep this thread alive!

It's gonna look great!

It looks a million times better than before! Just have to do my lightmaps at Super.

[Offspring]

Damn I feel like I'm missing out on the action... I'm going out to buy this game...

[SuperSunny]

I have to give the light volumes a bigger variety, and REALLY have to fix the UV's.

Sapien

[Con]

Are the textures really that low-res, or is it just Sapien being 'tarded?

[Sever]

I really dig what you're doing with the underlighting/railing/floorlights at that T-junction in pics 1 & 2. Keep it up, and also try to release the new version in HCE (some of us are still in the 'dark ages').

[SuperSunny]

Tis Sapien.

And for the CE version, update posted in the CE section.

[Offspring]

(some of us are still in the 'dark ages').

NO! ha ha, Just kidding, I prefer "Old School":rolleyes:

[X3RO SHIF7]

sex in map form =o

[Ki11a_FTW]

are those new rooms added

[jngrow]

haha, grab restored shaders pack for your AR sunny, and it will look better than Halo 2.

[Lightning]

Too bad this....is Halo 2?

[jngrow]

lol whoops, thought i was posting in the CE topic :/.
