[UDK] - Ancient Tomb

Izanamya

Hi Polycounters.

After monthes (years?) wandering on the forum; I think it's time to begin posting.
I'm a french CG guy, mostly focus on precalculated CG, in order to diversify my skills, I've began to learn UDK&Cry Engine by myself.

So let's begin with my first level on UDK

Still WIP, but advanced enough to post this first video.

Don't hesitate to give me some advices/critics&co.

I'll post some wips/wire asap

Armangelo

Really good work! I love the outside segment.
I would say that you need to detail the interior more. Cobwebs and the like. Maybe some atmospheric particles.

really appealing outdoor sequence love it, I'm thinking the same on the interior as Armangelo.

not bad. the water fountain thing inside at first looked like falling sand that then turned to sleet glass as it fell to the collecting pool. Id speed up the top bit to give it more of a realistic feel to it.

This turned out great! I would love it if you posted some high resolution screen shots and talked about what went into making this piece.

I'm interested in how you handled the water and water falls in the level.

Thank you !

Seems like the attachement doesn't want to work ? Or did I miss something ?

There is no real story in this level, It's more a big test chamber for me, discovering and testing UDK even if I try to give this level a common theme and a continuity.

Of course, nothing is totally over, I want to set all my rooms first and then detail them.
The water in the second room is just a placeholder test atm, will test flow maps & fluid actor.

Nothing complicate then, just some Static meshes throwed everywhere, coming from highpoly shorts/movies&co, my first challenge was to think in lowpoly (Oo' What ? UDK doesn't want my 400k tris column ?!)

Here are some screeshot
