Screenshots

[Bitdood]

Thought I'd be brave and share some screenshots. I've played around with the UT99 editor for years, but never finished a map I was truly content with. Recently decided to renew my personal challenge of creating a Skaarj-inspired map with Assault play, particularly one that actually showcased what a mothership "command center" might look like.

I especially stayed clear of this for years since I always noticed a certain complexity with Skaarj architecture and... well... I didn't want to release something with no colored lighting and a lack of unique pillars/ornaments.

Here's what I've assembled so far just starting. It's not much yet, but I'd appreciate any input:

[EDIT: Regarding the "pointy" looking consoles on the right and left side of the command center... I plan on trimming the top to make them a bit sleeker looking. May even play around with other panel textures and see how creative I can get.]

Looks great, specially the last pic.

Thanks! I'll post more WIP updates as time progresses. Seeing some neat and innovative concepts from UED 2.0 on this thread.

It looks great so far! Keep up the work. For some inspiration I'd take a look at AS-FOT-Mothership by Derdak2rot - in my honest opinion I think it's probably one of the greatest maps to ever use the Skaarj theme and among my top overall favorite maps.

^ Looks very nice.
Just one thing though: the BSP itself, you used parts of different maps, right? Not that I think it's wrong, as long they're standard or that there's no problem with the original authors, and so far the whole set is looking great.

@ASLYE702: I'm especially digging the foliage and water flow. Looks like an interesting combo!

@Peppers: Just took a look at it few nights ago... VERY awesome map, especially with its use of 2k4 mothership textures in a UT99 map. Pure art.

I've decided mine's going to be a tribute to both types, but primarily to the original Skaarj mothership maps. It's not a "mothership," so to speak, but rather an interpretation on a Skaarj cruiser/battleship.

Still very incomplete... It's certainly coming along, though:
