Zolee's LE stuff

Zolee · 26-09-21, 02:18

Hey guys

Instead of spamming the screenshot/object showcase threads, I decided to create my own little corner to show my LE stuff.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you guys might know, I have a ghana reimagined prj started long ago (based on beta legend). This level is still far from completion, has lots of bugs and faults and might be cancelled.
***Update***
Decided to use my assets created before, and begin to build a completely new west african level, some iconic areas might be recreated though, like the waterfall in the beginning of ghana.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Participating the ORC21, I decided to pick another beta legend level/scenery which was suffered pretty much cause of NGLE's -and my knowledge's-limitations. This "level" has plenty of flaws, reading the reviews I understood what was missing and what was needless to change and I totally agree with them. My focus was the aesthectics and to catch the scenery as much as possible. I've learned from this and I'm thinking of making an expansion of that level (without the buggy new animations and the unrealistic underwater ice-spike tunnels).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

After having some break from the editor I felt like starting an Egypt themed level which I quite like so far and would like to share some screenies with you. The level does not have a title yet. Hope you guys like it and feel free to give me any type of critics

***Update***
The egyiptian level is finished and ready to play: https://trcustoms.org/levels/3522

^this looks really good, but have you considered using my revamped TRA textures pack? I always felt like those textures were too grey in general and makes the environments look too monotone, also lighting them up in TRLE is always a bit more difficult
If you want to have a look, there you go

This Egypt level already looks gorgeous. Simply beautifully Egyptian tomby

*edit* i personally always take Lore's advice into consideration, but I also personally love how grey your current pics are

turneraider · 26-09-21, 22:03

Ahh, you captured the Egypt vibe perfectly!

This looks really good Zolee

Exactly like TRA's Egypt. The only thing I would suggest is perhaps injecting some more color into the environments - perhaps when Lara gets deeper into the tomb.

It's great to see you working on something other than Legend-Beta stuff. It's been too long and you really have so much talent.

Thank you! I agree with Lore, it's a little dull so I changed it slightly, not drastically though

Thank you!

I took your advice guys, and warmed up the lighting a little bit, now it really does look much better. Thank you all!

^ahhh this is so, so much better, thank you for listening to the feedbacks

Wow, Zolee, this looks amazing! I like the duller version more, but it is beautiful either way

Zolee · 22-10-21, 23:53

Thanks guys

Couple of more shots, nothing grandiose though.
