To be fair we have been making it for 7 months though

Fair's fair. I was only thinking of doing it anyways. Hmm...what other holidays are there...

Easter. I don't think anyone has made an Easter map yet...

And my team won't be making that, I promise!

And I don't think the world is ready for that sort of thing either.

Is that the puzzle marathon map thingie?

What be that? I don't think it's ours since I don't know what you are referring to.

Really dark room: (You may need to click on the pic to see it)

Limbo: (Brace yourself, it's an animated GIF.)

Ill post more pictures here with progress if you guys want.

That's pretty dark, but the .GIF looks epic and the BTS seems well detailed.

At the Gif: Did you changed the fog color from dark to white? Because i dont think that it changes the whole lightmap ^^

I see in the red dark room and your current map, that you really like to play with coloured lights

I do have an appreciation for colored lights. It probably came from years of making darkrides in roller coaster tycoon 3. XD the fog does change color and I use an env_ambient_light (i think it's called that) to add to what you can see.

That map with the 25 puzzles or something. The one you asked my opinion about.

It possibly is, and I may add more light in play testing, but I do have an appreciation for darkness, and since the whole story has a darker/horror feel, it may look good and add to the environment. Also, the darkness in the red room is supposed to create a strong contrast when you step out into limbo and the fog flashes. (The limbo vista happens right after the red room.)

Mirrors. ofc, this is nowhere near completion.

Well, he does have some light, but I agree that it needs to be a smidge lighter. How it is now...I think that will definitely annoy people.

However, your .gif is great. Good luck with the mod/mappack.

@Habzs: Are the mirrors models or glass brushes? It looks good anyways.

Habzs: How did you get the trigger to work without a hidden portal, though? For me only the starting point of the bridge activates it.

They are brushes with a reflective surface.

Are you using specific portalable faces in combination with OnPortalPlaced outputs to control the reflected bridge?

Yes.

Too dark indeed; but I like the shadows; maybe just increase the brightness of your light a bit.

Habz; looks interesting; can't wait to see it in an actual map!
