The Style
Hello
For the UPCP project the team will be working on a DM map for (most likely) the Unreal Engine 3 (UDK).
However we need a style for the map so if you have any suggestions post them below please. The style could be anything and if you have any sketches to help get the idea across then please post them below.
At some point this weak or next the best ideas will be taken to a poll to be voted on.
Thanks

Also, if you havent seen the movie "from hell" then you might have a little more trouble trying to invision what i am :P
Of course the weapons would suit the timeline, knives, rifles etc..... maybe some sort of throwing top hat
Please pm me about no need to make a post
ZacD said it best. Come on! We are Polycount! We can come up with a pretty rad idea that when people see it, they will be like "Well, this is just plain awesome in every way".
This is true.
WE SHOULD DO A SPANIARDS VS AZTEC THEME~

Absurdity is always fun
I really like the idea of this, all the different colors / themes would be cool and would be very helpful in learning.
But i still do like the normal Victorian and Steam punk Victorian ideas as well.
Don't really get why it's so important that the map a DM but that's someone else decision i guess.
I'm happy as long as we'll do it.. :shifty:
Could anyone summaries why the last collaboration died?
Another cool thing would be to just make a small snow environment as a warm up or to check that we will be able to pull it of.
#1 - German bomber which has crashed on the ice of some lake.. Fog, snow storm or something?

#2 - Another idea that get's me hard is probably to just try to tell a story through an environment, some kind of a more artsy direction like maybe walking around on the scene of a suicide, or or: someone who's gone crazy and killed someone and you get to walk around and look at the environment, the killer might have gone ahead and cut up the body and put it in bin bags, maybe he's out and buring parts of the victim, what's the prolog? who's the killer? Who's the victim? Has he done it before? etc etc. Details details.
#3 - A blink in history: Pretty much the same as above but you'll get to walk around in an environment that has had a big impact on history and our world in general. Something that we all can agree on has had a huge impact on us all.
Think 9/11 but something else.
I like the idea of provoking and just in general make people... think :poly122:.
Edit: I hope it's okay if I'll go ahead and create a new topic so we can monitor the interest rate.
But if DM is etched in stone then I guess your correct.
Added a new topic. Sleepy now.
I think a Victorian theme would be a great idea for a level with telmac suggestion of a disney-ish style would look great.
However its style up for discussion so post a style and a theme you would think would be great for a DM map.
I also agree to the square soft / disney (kingdom hearts style) especially if we go somewhere near that squaresoft town posted here some time ago (which is just a master piece). I think that theme would work well and could be diverese enough for everyone working on it to enjoy.
nuhuh!
Agreed to the relax, last time we rushed heads in, while we did get a few assets and other things done, it ultimately failed because of this exact reason .. This time it would be good to slow down and plan everything out pre hand.
That's the plan that's set in stone
We haven't had a vote on the theme/style yet, so this would be pointless right now. Hence the style vote coming soon.
i like the steam punk idea but a victorian style mixed with Disney could be epic!
/agreed
I don't wanna be too negative about it, but somehow the overwhelming vibe/atmosphere in the starting phase, this time is not too well at this point right now.
I get the feeling that people are rather hesitant with entering and/or adding ideas.
Hope this will change, once the voting is up
