[WIP] Vestibule of Wind (msc_vow)

[MS:C community]

No release yet unfortunately, but great progress has already been made!

I'm wondering what colour the bridge in the starting area should have though... Brown, dark grey or light grey. The difference is hard to notice between the last two, but here are some screenshots:

i watched the video, that spinny thing looks like it took a lot of work.

i personally think the brown stands out too much. either grey looks good to me. (also usually structures materials are from stuff thats around the area which the rocks there are grey)
btw really nice looking map!

I like dark grey the best. The lodagond texture is the worst choice.

I personally vote for dark grey since it is nighttime and looks cooler that way. Or maybe its just cloudy out, either way I feel the dark grey blends in nicer.

Thanks for the replies and votes. I'll go with dark grey.

I want to use this sound file in my map and tried using this website to convert it to a .wav file, but it doesn't play in-game. I guess the format is wrong. Can someone help me out here, please?

Must be 22050khz or 11025khz, 16-bit or 8-bit, unsigned mono wave file.

Easiest safe method would be to grab goldwave - open an existing MSC wave file, and paste your sound file into it.

Check the existing wave files though - I think we have like six or seven different thunder effects now - indeed, I think that may even be one of them.

I got it to work using VLC, thanks.
I did search through MS:C's sound files (looking for "bolt", "thunder", "storm" and "lightning") and then I even browsed the entire CS:CZ sounds GCF for almost an hour, but this is a new sound file. I would've used an existing one if I could've.

As the map is nearing completion, I'm now also working on some minor finishing touches.

...such as a custom gib model for when parts of the giant bridge break (click to enlarge):
