FOX's Imagi-Nation

Almost there! I didn't get a chance to work on Koti last week but this week I'm back at it! Most of the final details are in place and the map is fully playable. The volumetric lighting textures are in place as well as the dust. I added a sound scape as well as the other little functions of the map (trigger hurt and remove).

The deforms were not quite right, I didn't add sound, and I couldn't fully test it. I finally slapped a *_b1 onto the end a released it as a beta. Now a year later I'm ready to finish the job. I lost the source to koti_b1 in a hard drive crash and was with out a video card for some time. For awhile I was not sure what would become of the map. It was good enough but it didn't feel finished. Then one day while waiting for my ENG 102 to start I found myself drawing out a new layout. This became the new Koti. A few days ago the real work started. I started with the middle island. This island was the last one I made in the original. I felt that I could get a good feel for the size of the map from here. The island now has four ad ons in each corner to hold some spare ammo. One of the hardest parts of this island was the ...
