2012/02/05 - Shadows and Shaders vs. Interiors and Terrain [Fan Art Too]

[LeetZero]

There wont be only the single map SLATE.

I guess blockland will keep only the FLAT maps.

You mean we will only have the map with the night skybox?

I don't think that will actually happen.

[LeetZero]

forget, my bad.

But what I mean, will we have a in-game customizer for the Slate map or we'll use Mission Editor.

And I know there will only be flat maps, but we really need such a chooser for all flat maps that look the same except different ground/skybox/wahtever?

I'm just curious: Would the shadow of this tower be casted all the way onto the ground?

[popman98]

I hope adjustable plate will be default.

Yes, I think? Or maybe you need bricks under the tower?

Im not sure, if yes: sweet jesus.

I hope adjustable plate will be default.

Probably wont, but will stay.

Use a terrain generator with a white brick theme.

ew. slopes was hand made, you can tell by the way it's designed. chucking seeds into a terrain generator was why most of blockland's maps sucked.

[Gojira]

Ooooh
Must have.
Preeeetty.

So what I heard on Grav's and Heed's server WASN'T bullstuff.
Meh, who cares.
I think it's worth it.

[Dnitro]

I'm a nub when it comes to mapping, so what;s the difference between shaders and shadows?

Also how will transparent bricks work?

[TheArmyGuy]

Look at the CTF map image, the sign post.
The very bottom-most brick of the pole supporting it is transparant.

I was looking more for an answer of colored transparent bricks.

Like a trans red 1x4x5 casting a red shadow.

[Lugnut]

guys, slate is basically a big fat interior, right?
they're removing interiors, so how the forget will all the current edits stay??

[pecon98]
