Hello Darkness, my old friend...

[SydVic]

...am I wrong or are tunnels and holes pretty dark in the game. I think, with dark caves it will be possible to create darkrides. Just create a cave (instead of a big container), build a building around it - and voilà - we have a darkride

You just reminded me, they didn't say anything about the dim lights in game yesterday.
As for the dark ride thing, if terrain is involved, then we need to be able to make a simple squared block of terrain or something, but I think they'll probably make special walls that make an enclosed dark space.

Kudos for the song lyric [happy]

I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

very beautiful song

ON: I'd love to try and make a darkride that way

i would say sure but it would be a very slow process. But with the setting that lifts terrain and ignores the walls. Build your building and then lift the terrain over it. Then remove terrain till its a thin shell. We could then add another level of wall on the outside to make a pretty facade.

It would be a lot easier if the provide a "lead" wall and flat roof.

Hello dark ride my old friend
I've come to ride on you again
because your darkness is still creepy
left me dreaming of you deeply
And the rails
that your planted on remain
and don't strain
within your ride...
of Darkness.


It kinda works.

 

[SydVic]

All the wonders I have seen
More than I could ever dream
Neon colors in a narrow hall
Singing puppets in such a small
small world
and a song that never changes
it's pretty strange
now the boat sails
into Darkness

We need to make a Community YouTube Cover with these Lyrics. Maybe a little bit harder than the Original to fit with the Theme of the lines. [squeeeeee]

I just have to comment how much I love this song (both the original and disturbed's cover).

Also how many of you heard Disturbed perform it? I love when they did it live on Conan. It's beautiful!

Being a little serious with your topic, this happens basically because caves DO create real shadows with the enviroment. So if you made a huge cave room with only an exit and an entrance, the only light that would enter woudl be through those holes.
So yes, with some tricks here and there you could create darker rooms using the cave system (and for example, putting a building outside it covering it, and then another fake scenery box covering the inside of the cave, so the terrain layer would be in the middle of this two), but im not sure if they will be as dark as some people are asking for.
