The church front is Stunning.. I love the intricacy, and with lighting its that much more amazing.
I also like the look of the cavelike structure in behind, im curious to see what that turns out like.

I'll give you a five for Artistic Content.

i love the detail and the whole thing in general, finish it soon

all what i need to say is: awesome!

Glad to see you release this. i remember seeing it a long time ago... i love it.

Preeeetty :)

This is a nice design. Huge detail. On the church-front you have some stray blocks to watch for those. I'm hoping to see this develop further and become functional. At the top you have some spiral staircases, with neither an entrance nor an exit. That's one example.

As for everything else included.. Those will be deleted I assume. The playerstart was in this cylinder so I was confused. The exact last thing I looked at was the church, and from the screenshot that's the thing I came to look at initially.

Even if this is not going to be built into a functional map for gameplay purposes, I would be interested in the final product as a complete, artistic map.

5/5 if I'm rating only the church-front and its similarity to the picture. Otherwise the lighting, stray things lying about, and texturing is off...

So, all things considered, 4/5 ;)

thanks for the comments and the votes ;)
on the top of the tower it is really hard to carry on cause its not possible anymore.. heh but we will see ;)

ty for the support

You already showed me this but, Nice!

a great project here, too bad i don't see it making it to gameplay maps >.>
but very artistic indeed :D! 5/5
and mind enlarging the map to finish the top please =P

I must say this is some fantastic "cubing"!

I really hope you will continue with this project and finish both the church inside as well as the outside and it's surroundings.
Even if it won't be playable, it should still be in the release as artistic content to show people the potential of the engine.

Great work!

If you don't want to make the map 2x2 bigger, just move the castle and the ground downward and you'll have more space above.

This facade is the best example of Gothic architecture in Sauerbraten that I've seen. It must've taken a little while! I'm guessing that a little texturing work will be done later, because right now, I can't see the details on the windows from certain angles (the windows are the same texture as everything else).

Really amazing. Sauerbraten needs more stuff like this. 5/5 (well, it looks like there are a few flaws, but it sounds like you're still actively working on this)

WOOOAAAW its awesome ! seriously ! i love it ! but ... dont you thing the church is kind of alone there ? no trees or anything ... but awesome ! i cant remember it often enough !
i am sure you are an awesome mapper !!

Gr33t2 fr0m G3rm4ny :)

ill do scenery and surroundings in the end ;)
like i said - its still work in progress
it didnt took long.. i guess arround in 2 hours i made the front side

Since both Utopia and this have become "Starred Content" you've earned your 2nd star :-)
Let's also not forget MFFA which, along with good comments (not like in the beginning, though, hehe), earned you your 1st star.
Great job all round.

you forgot to texture the windows (there are very nice window textures already in sauerbraten) but its very good!

The side looks great so far! A few things: Shouldn't the flying buttresses be a bit arched on the underside? I'm also curious as to how you would do the back of the church since parts of it are diagonal (including windows).
Still, I have yet to see anything like this in Sauerbraten!

Very nice, i like youre map.... You're really a very very good map maker.... You make so lot of details!

God, how'd you make this? This is amazing...

still cant beleive this is one of the best maps of 09 so far, thats amazing misan keep going :D

Very ambitious attempt, here: I'm already a fan of your Arabic map, but this one has even more potential. I hope that, when finished, it'll come fully featured with a matching environment and normal-mapped textures. :)

5/5

First off really good map, even unfinished looks great! I would only add my textures to the windows LOL! :P

Hope to see it finished... and probably included in the game.

Good one.

5/5

You guys actually still working on this one? ;)

Painkillah no offense but i dont really like your window tex ;) also it does not fit to the grid, and cause im working on grid i cant use it. and also youre supposed to look through them in the end

i try to continue it but im quite busy atm (with work with the clan etc)

but im looking forward to edit it again

The interior looks nice so far! I'm curious to see if you'll be able to pull off vaulted ceilings. Oh, and you forgot to /calclight. The little entrance platform strikes me as a bit odd, but I imagine you might be adding more to it in the future.

pls make the platform bigger again so that you can look at the church from a little bit more distance and not fall off the cliff ;)

Other than that, even just with the little changes I think it's awesome ;)

wow rly nice i'd love it it's awesome

update again.. download please :D

Did you make an update to UPDATE 2? or was i the first to see a changed picture and think there were no changes? o.O

RaZgRiZ ~ One Shot, One Fail

there are not many changes outside. i changed the inner .. and i completed the back part.
not many things new. but i will work on the map again ;)

You should make it a playable map with a real town around the church :) good map 10p

This is one of the projects im definately looking forward to seeing more updates ;)

Don't forget the confession chamber and the holy water fountain at the entrance *grin

Keep up the splendid work!

Btw, havin a fast computer, looking at this laggfree, is "god"like (A little lol on the word play :P)

hope you like it ;)
adding "angels" with high detail faces

Great map = Great Lag. My computer sucks :P

its 401K WTR so dont expect its gonna be playable map :P
faken amazing map by the way

Wow, *amazing* map. I love how it's on a little floating island-like thing (even if the back of it is square). What I really don't like is the lighting. You have a few lights just sitting on the floor which, while it makes the map reasonably lit, looks plain weird. There aren't, as far as I can tell, any of light sources anywhere (not light entities, but the geometry/model the light is supposed to be coming from). If you want, I can post a few links to lighting articles, but I kind of get the sense that this is just something that is being put off for a while. Can't wait for a (few more) update(s)!

8.5/10 for now

This is really cool. I think you should make two versions of this map - artistic and playable. Keep up your great job and i hope this map will be included in next Sauerbraten release. At least for the demo purpose. 9/10

Best thing since sliced bread, even if you do need a $200 video card to make it playable.

10/10

Great detail.. I can not wait til u get the baptistry done and the back side of the church. The lighting tho is completely unrealistic... the lighting in a church such as this one at the time period would be limited during the night because of the lack of electricity... many of the spots on this map tend to have problems in defining were the light is coming from... it look as if you only lit the key areas +++ you need to add a way to get up to the second/third/fourth/etc levels... i suggest to change the skymap to a more daytime... or dust... that way u can use the sun to aply a more natural light... also .. if this is a catholic church.. there should be more art/sculpture allong the isle due to the fact that they can never get enough of it...

On the packing note... there is no jpg or cfg in the base in the packaged product... u will want to include a list of all the mapmodels in there that u use so if the model list defualt ever changes it will not change your models... u dont want the bushes to become trees :)...

gj 7/10

Stop being so awesome! You make us look bad!

MISANTHROPX.......sweet VotivChurch Vienna! I hope you add some nice artwork to the ceiling XD!
