My Custom Map

[randall]

Diego, it would be okay to prtscrn a world map. By the time you converted it to a Quake texture it wouldn't resemble the Encarta map anyway. It would be fairly generic.

I own the U-571 DVD, and so far that is where I am getting most of my info. That movie is pretty accurate with the design of the subs. It's still difficult to create a texture based on that though- most of them have to be hand drawn.<br><br>I also ordered a cross section model of a u-boat so I could get all the areas somewhat correct, like the placement of the navigation rooms and stuff.<br><br>Diego, I used to live in New York and I went on a tour of "Growler", the first American sub equipped with sea-to-air missle defense. It was pretty cool, I only wished I had a digital camera back then.<br><br>I do have some textures from large ocean vessels. Some of those might work.

Ok, I did the map texture. It looks very nice.<br><br>Here is how my submarine looks like: It´s not a amazing Nuclear Sub, but it´s something <br>---http://sites.uol.com.br/hcueva/subpic.jpg<br><br>Last modification: Diego Cueva - 05/30/01 at 19:12:05

Oh, yeah, this is only a pic of the beta design... Things may change....

It resembles a sub, and that's all that matters. Even Chuck would be able to tell it was a sea going vessel. <br><br>There is a way to make the sea look like it extends off to the horizon, without making the map huge. As a matter of fact you could leave the map exactly the same size.<br><br>

How?

Just how long has this discussion been going on? now its got nothing 2 do w/ that map

[999]

This goddamn thread has become it's own forum.<br><br>I wanted to lock it so long ago.<br><br>Now if anyone needs any map making info, they've got to trek through mountains of posts both on and off topic. This could have easily been a handful of separate threads.<br><br>

[W3bD£v1l]

Nice point<br><br>Just why dont the nice guys at PocketMatrix make a foum for maps and stuff and re-program the coding for the forums so if its spans more than 10 pages a new thread is started with the name:<br><br><NAME OF ORIGINAL THREAD>Part 1<br><br>or whatever
