Welcome to Evkla, the first map to exist within the Dakraheim universe. This map will introduce a few elements from Dakraheim such as the Neverworld (place of death) and the Trail of Evkla.
The map is a series of islands that get progressively harder with enemies based off the theme of the island, so the map will also function as a challenge map.
Each island you must survive 10 rounds to ascend to the next one.
Island One
This will be the...

47 Berkerly Lane
As most of you may know, someone who was apart of the Alpha testing group for 47 Berkerly Lane has taken the map and reuploaded it to the workshop publicly.
Due to this I've officially released the map in early access stage to everyone to overshadow the stolen item.
The easter egg is not complete yet and there are some aspects of the sound pass that still need to be complete along with some bugs. I'll be updating the map as much as I can and st...

The remainder of the posts for 47 Berkerly Lane will likely be video only as they include the sound design.
We're getting close to Early Access.

The detail pass has been going very well and I'm very pleased with the outcome of every area as I finish them.
Here's the current progress on the room adjacent to Mule Kick (Maintenance). I'm almost finished with it, just some minor things need adding/changing.

Progress on the Detail Pass has been going well and is making the areas feel so much more alive. Here's the current completion:
Sewer Gate: Done
Double Tap: Done
Corridors: 90%
Stairwell: 40%
Total: 18%
Using the XCAM I created in Blender for the trailer shot I am able to do a seamless comparison for before and after while flying through the underground.

Detail Pass: Sewer Gate
As you know the map is in the detail pass stage which basically means hella conduits, hella pipes, hella blends and hella wires. This is definitely one of the most tedious parts in making a map (if i ever see another conduit again im going to eat it). Here's the progress on the Sewer Gate room. Warning: Lots of Images!

Lighting Pass
Seeing as though the mapping is complete it's time for the passes. I've gotten feedback from alpha testing that the level especially the underground is very dark on some monitors so i've gone through and adjusted basically every single light & probe on the level and tweaked the color correction & lighting states to ensure high visibility on all monitors.

Mapping Complete!
All of the mapping of 47 Berkerly Lane is officially complete. It's now onto scripting & the final passes.
Scripting is currently roughly 5% complete, there is A LOT to do.
The final passes are (in order): Detail pass, User guide pass, Optimization pass, Balance pass & Sound pass.

The End of Berkerly Lane & The Start of Oslyke
As some of you may know, the end of 47 Berkerly Lane ends with the start of Oslyke. Completing the "easter egg" quest and teleporting will teleport you to the starting room of Oslyke then ending the game.
The is the current progress of the Oslyke Starting Room.

Memories
Using the teleporter causes temporary extreme memory dysphoria and if done with multiple people in rare cases you may experience their memories, during the teleportation you will see one of these four places which are past lives of the characters. Here you will be able to find additional lore to the VKZU.

The map is currently in early blockout stages for testing gameplay, everything is subject to change. It will stay in blockout until after 47 Berkerly Lane is completed. Once 47 Berkerly Lane is done i'll begin detailing.

Double Tap
Have been primarily focusing on touching up this area over the past few days as well as optimizing the map. Optimizing the map takes the longest due to the fact that I have to compile the entire map to test it. Takes over 2 hours of 100% CPU & Disk usage which makes the computer unusable for the time it compiles, builds lights and links.

Spent the most of my day today optimizing the map to work within the entire level, hit the lighting .LED size limit multiple times but after many light build attempts finally was able to get the size to 2GB which successfully exported.

Remote Operations: Firing Range
Started laying out & positioning the cover for the firing range targets and the base detailing. Here players can start the minigame for an amount of points, if they win they profit but if they lose they forfeit the points. Profiting from this will allow players to buy a better starting weapon and/or contract.
