A little bit of Haunted Cathedral Prototypical (UDK version has a video!)

Was the music in the video from Ergo Proxy?

Yep. From the description box on YouTube:

This demonstration video is an overview of the cathedral I've made in the Unreal Development Kit and 3dsmax 2010. This is a work-in-progress. The animation sequence was created in Unreal Matinee, with text overlays and sound mixing in Adobe Premiere CS4. The background music is by Ike Yoshihiro for the anime Ergo Proxy, entitled "New Pulse".

Thought it sounded familiar.

Once upon a time I promised to release this. I figured now is as good a time as any. :)

This is NOT the UDK version. This is the UT2004 version, which requires a copy of that game to run. However I also included all of the 3dsmax 2010 source files, which anyone is free to do with as they please. They do require Max 2010 to open though. There's no reverse compatibility.

Looks really excellent, great work.

Thanks :)! Any chances to see the UDK-version of your work?

This is excellent. Not sure how I managed to miss this thread before.

You should totally make a game out of it. But don't overengineer it, you're practically there already. It's a cathedral floating around on a (http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100412134859/half-life/en/images/e/e9/Xen_first_island.jpg) Xen island. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKCawALGeXw) No backstory necessary, no objectives necessary. Plonk in some ambience and let people explore.

Wow! Also, I see screens from UDK map inspired by Bioshock :thumb:

Thanks guys! I'm also surprised that some of you are just seeing this for the first time. Feel free to spread the links around and share them. :)

As for the UDK version, there's a licensed UDK indie dev team that has an open offer to use the cathedral in their game if they want it. They are quite interested in it, but they're doing a very small (free) initial release to get public feedback and exposure before they expand their project to a full game, and the cathedral won't be part of that. (I do, however, have work that will be present in that demo.) The project isn't necessarily one that taffers will be interested in, but it is a pretty cool single player fantasy rpg/strategy game. I picked it because, of all the projects I looked at, they seemed like the most solid team who have a big chance of actually finishing and selling their game. If it turns out that they're not going to use it and/or the project folds (which would surprise me), then I will make the work public.

Check them out: (http://www.vectorsrc.com/) (studio) (http://www.archasis.com/) (game)

There's really almost no chance I am going to continue working on it, or the Bioshock map. It did what it needed to do, and now I am moving forward.
