Picture This

I've been quite busy, this week and have decided to take five pictures of what I've been up to for release of the final version of Research Labs Sublevel 13.

First off, I've included a shelf that is attached to the wall in Storage Room A and added some clutter to it, as well as a large clip for the Machine Gun.

Secondly, I've put a large power cable in the curved hallway leading to the Research Archives. It's worth mentioning because the cable follows the hallway's curve. Something I thought I wouldn't be able to do until I'd improved my skills, a bit. It took a bit of time, but it paid off. As with the hallway itself, I simply created one half of the cable, then copied, pasted and rotated it.

Third, remember those supports in the offices hallway? They've been added to and look better.

Fourth, I managed to get the UAC military logo into the Plasma Gun's room. The logo used to misbehave by either not showing up or not being where I wanted it to.

Finally, things I haven't got pictures for, simply because they need videos and audio to be shown.

I've added the effect id have in their own maps when monsters teleport in. Usually, when a monster teleports in, the lights would dim and then come back up when the demon had finished teleporting. Well, I've got that effect in my own map, now. I love messing with the lights. You can have loads of fun with them.

The level will now not be totally silent. I've added roomtones so that there will be some kind of noise while you are travelling through the labs.

There are a few other surprises in store for you. The level will be quite different from the beta.

Anyway, on with the pictures.

I'm aiming for a release on Wednesday. Don't expect me to keep it. As I've stated before, I'm useless at keeping my own deadline dates.
