What is this place...why do I feel so...strange?
What I've been working on all night :)

This doesn't look familiar! UT, what are you trying to pull?! This should go into art!



Hey...have I seen these corridors somewhere?



Now I get it!

Re: What is this place...why do I feel so...strang
Aren't there a wee bit too many corridors and too few actual rooms ?

Re: What is this place...why do I feel so...strang
More rooms! But IMHO most of them should be storerooms or some sort of control or maintenance areas. Atleast in all of those (real life) naval vessels that i have been aboard crew quarters and such are generally cramped. And often the actual size of crew is far greater than the size of the crew designers had in mind...

Those of us with "Super Secret" access know where that's from.

Anyway, looking...mighty fine so far. More rooms would be :yes: though.

Um...mind telling me? :D

By the way, here we go; I'll be honest with you guys, I'm still figuring out how to do an FS2 elevator :D So for the time being, this deck is basically done. The reason you don't see a lot of store rooms and crap is because the entire front half, I've sectioned off for living quarters. The middle section is all for combat operations, while the back is all engines. How did I come across this? Well, A) It looks cool, and is easier for me, and B) The number of windows in each section gave me a clue; if you look, there's a lot of windows near the top of the middle section, where the bridge might be, almost none in the rear (engine section), and LOTS in the front; so people like to look outside, so there are the windows :D

Blue is docking pathways, red is living quarters and living hallways, brown is regular, green is service. :)

Well it's the only thing I could base it off of, so I had to use them.

Re: What is this place...why do I feel so...strang
...Which is why the cannon is about 3 decks down and encased in a self-contained compartment :)

And anyway, can someone just import this into Half Life 2 or something like that, so we can play around with it? :)

Re: What is this place...why do I feel so...strang
Cool idea, but the hallways seem to be too wide compared to the sizes of the rooms, if I'm reading that diagram correctly.

It actually reminds me of level 18 in Descent 1. That had several areas that looked like the second picture in UT's first post.

There is also that big Riviera render, where you can see part of a hall:

Re: What is this place...why do I feel so...strang
More rooms on those corridors. And for goodness sake, pay attention to the POF data and the textures; where the windows are, where the mechanical spaces might be, where the turret housings are, where the subsystems are located and what they might be represented as on the interior.

The Star Wars Incredible Cross-Sections are a good reference for something like this. What you're doing is essentially physical technobabble.

It's a naval vessel, even if it's a spaceship. If they're not all the same, something's wrong.

Um, yea, so, anyway, could someone convert this? I'd be able to get a better feel for what to do if I could walk through it :p
