DOOM3 WarCraft 3 Map

SuPa-

I just decided to make an interactive environment model for WC3, with a DOOM 3 Theme, to see how it'd work, and I need some suggestions for stuff to put into it to make it fancy
All I have now is the basic shape and such
By the way, the top area (Above where that wrecked stair-way type thing is) will be unaccessible, and is just there for a scene

wow, this site is very conservative about what to comment on, haha.

i like it, and i like the idea.... maybe add a bent vent-grate thing with an arm trying to ply it open... (of course the arm is now body-less, and is just limp sitting there...)


maybe have a window that, when you look through it, shows a few corpses on the ground...

just a few dumb ideas, haha

its very nice so far, though!

As far as blocking out the level its a good start. But you need to think modularly and design pieces that tile. Not only tile the textures but the pieces themselves. For example if are going to make a hallway, you would make a chunk and copy/instance it a few times to turn it into long hallway.

If you make a few T or Y junctions that plug into those hallway pieces you'll only have to create a few blocks but can arrange them in new ways to fill out a level. It also helps save on resources

For rooms you can make a few floor and wall tiles and then build a few uniques to spice things up.

yeah interesting idea, I agree with vig, more modular design might help. I was also wondering how this would work in the game, what size would a player character be? would they be able to navigate without getting stuck in doors or on sharp corners?

Thanks for the ideas, guys
An arm poking out somewhere would be good I guess. I was thinking maybe the fan vent (It's hard to identify it as a vent right now, because the propeller is going to be an alpha'd plane) It's the boxy thing with the pipes going to it
Yeah, some people over at GA recommended I re-make it and pre-UV map certain pieces then duplicate those like you guys said. I'll see how that works out
