Inspired by Jason telling me no mod had yet fully used the maps included in LCGames' Insanity Tech Demo, I was looking at what I could do with them. The Underground level is particularly appealing to me - an underground space which could be worked as a sewer. Not having 3DMax, I had thought the only way I could take advantage of these levels would be to use them "as is"; the underground level would have to be its own thing and not part of something larger.
This isn't the case anymore.
That's the entire Underground level inside the first level in Germany.
The only issue I've encountered so far is that, as expected, the level is loaded as a single object. Which is to say, there are no individual parts that can be manipulated; it's set in stone. The upside is that someone can change the base level any way they can or want, save a copy, then load it as an object and place it in another level. I was reminded of some fanmade mission where I'd see geometry not usually available in that level - like, say, a miniature of the V2 Rocket - and assumed this could only be achieved by 3DMax. Also, this level itself can be walked around in as a single object: all doors and stairs seem to work perfectly.
Oh man. If eveyone knew this already I feel pretty stupid. Either way, I'm ecstatic.
