Before the MultiPrey community was wiped out I began designing some levels for it, but couldn't finish anything in time to try to save it. I had another level that was in beta - unfortunately, my previous host is gone and the thread at 3DRealms' forums has been lost. These are more recent works I've done.
1/25/08 - Small update with pics.
This map was started on January 18th, 2008 and is a WORK IN PROGRESS. I am currently modifying it, making changes, balancing things, etc.
DM_Overgrowth is my most recent Prey map. It's set on part of a space station that has been overgrown by some sort of alien cancer thing. I liked the idea of a research station experiement gone wrong. It's a gravity map with two distinct floors - the normal metal floor or the overgrown alien cancer floor. The alien cancer has some sort of energy capsules sticking out of it, quite possibly why it started growing too fast in the first place.
Currently in beta, and probably won't get much farther than that because I don't have anyone to test it with.
This first map took me less than a week to make. It was more an exercise in layout and use of portals. It is a straightforward, small duel map with no gravity effects, only two sets of portals that warp to either end of the map. I had a really good time experimenting with textures, themes and curves, and ended up with a mostly red/orange level with some strategic blue for a "pop" effect. Never really finished this one, but perhaps someday I'll get around to reinvigorating MultiPrey.
This second level was merely an exercise in Preditor. Prey was the first map I mapped for using the Doom3 engine. My computer was too bad to map for Doom3 when it came out, but I was fortunate to upgrade to a much better computer about a week before Prey came out. Not much here, but some pipes and patches as organic ground in the cracks between metallic panels. One thing that took a lot of getting used to in Doom 3 was how the lighting was done.
My goal with this level was just to get a small, moody level that had an interesting setpiece and decent lighting. For an hour's worth of work, I don't think I did all that poorly.
