Hi! I decided to create a new thread about my map - NYC - I'm still working on. This map will probably be the largest map ever made for Sauerbraten. I will post new screenshots here. Feel free to comment.

Pretty, but you might want to turn down the bloom and turn up the antialiasing (and maybe make the lighting less contrasting).

But antialiasing was set to 4x.

I could probably spend years and not make anything that good. Very, very nice work.

great map, but these large ones suck to play in without some sort of vehicle to drive around the map at speed.

Oh my, how risque. Speaking as someone who saw the plane come down on the Pentagon, I'm not sure you'll win friends and influence people with a comment like that, but I do understand it was meant in jest. I live near an airport and even today find myself looking up at every plane that passes...

Leaving that aside, it would be interesting to see a player rendered as a typical New York cab.

Cab Wars 2008!

Sorry for double-post, but it occurs to me that perhaps I miscontrued JadeMatrix's post. Just a little sensitive to mention of planes and NY in the same context. Apologies if I was off the mark.

When I read this I instantly got 2 reactions.

The first being that I was very sorry about the terrorist attacks.

And how it is tragic that you saw the plane hit the pentagon.

The second being that It has been 7 years, few lives were lost, it should not be this scarring.

Think about living in kenya or Iraq, or any other war-torn nation.

We Americans just need to suck it up and move on.

It was tragic, sad, and unexpected.

But we need to be able to admit that we have experienced a small amount in the world of suffering.

Sorry for the hi-jack. =/

Sincerely,
VeXoR

I hate to say that a tragedy should be forgotten, but I'm inclined to agree that its staying power is too high. I want my birth day back, Vexor is right in that we need to start moving on. And I know that there are an awful lot of people beyond myself who were born on Sept 11... fall is supposed to be about babies, not funerals.

I'm very interested in seeing a beta of this map pop up. It's really an amazing project, kudos to Red for taking it on.

For those who asked, I was sitting in my office looking out the window towards the Pentagon, which was about 1/4 mile away from me when I saw a plane flying at low altitude. At first I didn't think much of it, as Reagan International Airport is nearby, but then it vanished from view and everyone in the office felt the building "bounce" for second (it's the only way I can describe it). Then we saw the smoke near the Pentagon from our conference room. Shortly after we saw armored troop carriers speeding through the streets and someone turned on a radio...

To be clear, I'm not raw over this incident in particular. I read the paper daily and am continuously amazed by man's capability for cruel behavior. For me it's not a nationalistic issue as much as an affirmation of the Bard's statement, "The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones."
