Link – Awesome Guide for Multiplayer Design

Bobby Ross, who has a profile picture referencing one of my favorite painters of all time, was a World Builder on Firefall and a World Designer on Star Wars: The Old Republic.  He currently keeps a blog teaching Level Art & Design through infographics. He recently wrote and published an article about Multiplayer Level Design on Gamasutra. Its definitely worth the read. It’s a pretty legit serving of awesome sauce.

Link – MapCore: Source Lighting Technical Analysis: Part One

This is a pretty sweet article about the lighting in the source engine written by leplubodeslapin over on MapCore. I totally learned a bit more about lighting in the engine and lightmaps in general. The animated graphics in the article definitely helped. While it got a bit “mathy”, I’d say it was worth the read and a definite recommend. Check it out if you think the Source Engine or game engine lighting in general is interesting.
