Progress updates or sneak peaks to the next Ilum map.
Building for @Askavix
Featuring awesome lighting in this screenshot, thanks to Askavix.
I often somehow happen to include smiley faces in the terrain when building large maps. Call them creepy if you want. This is because I sometimes feel a bit lonely. My timezone is very different to the other developers in the team for project Ilum, so I’m often in studio alone. I’ve only included things I’ve built in these three screenshots.
An automatically-growing pyramid thing (Epilepsy warning for the video)
The Scripting
I scripted this to make it customizable: You can customize how quickly the pyramid shrinks (I know it’s not really a pyramid, but I really have no name for it). You can customize the speed which it grows, make the colors a gradient, etc. The best part is that I can make it any size I want. I’m going to be honest, it’s not that hard to script, but it’s tons of fun.
Also, it makes a funky optical illusion if you look at it the right way.
!Those ragdolls are too perfect…! Also happy birthday

Me and EinKleiner have been working on a project off and on for over year now together. Fingers crossed we keep up the pace for a summer launch time! Here are two screenshots of parts of the map.
This…this can’t be Roblox 
! The lighting and coloring are beyond amazing! Can’t wait to see more!
Hey guys, my first post on this thread!
Currently building a cafe for a group with 2K+ members that I’m a builder in. Here are some sick 720p screenshots of what I’m building. It features:
…and it also features…
It’s nowhere near finished yet and I still need to complete the outside, but so far it’s looking pretty good =)
Wow, looks really nice, modern and sleek.
I would try to something more interesting with the ceiling just to go above and beyond!
Yeah, I thought the ceiling looked boring too. Maybe I should add some stuff to it, but I don’t know what =/
Also, thank you for the compliment!
I think adding different heights to the ceiling and maybe a neon trim could look nice.
I’ve done something like this in the past before actually:
Within Roblox
Real Photo
Something Else?

Hey,
I just tried your idea with my ceiling, and I thought it looked really nice! I think I went a bit too over-the-top with the lighting but I decreased the exposure so that your eyes wouldn’t die. I can’t really do anything else with the ceiling because it’s a union but maybe I’ll separate it and try to do more with it.
It looks good, but you could always work with using some negative parts since you’re using a union for the ceiling, unless if it’s like less than 1-2 studs thickness.
Otherwise, it looks really cool with those parts of the ceiling on.
Working on remastering a map from 2013 for a long lost game mode. If you remember this game mode, you deserve a veterans discount.
Doesn’t really look like a cafe. Looks like what you would imagine from a normal restaurant. Also the ceiling could use some detail.
I thought it was too small to be a restaurant and decided on calling it a cafe, but yeah it kind of does look like a restaurant. I’ve added more detail to the ceiling after I took those screenshots, but thank you for the feedback!
It looks great, but legacy is being phased out so I would be focusing on using voxel lighting: especially considering that phase two is due to release very soon.
Hey, do you know you can use Anti-Aliasing to prevent those pixel staircases?
You just need to increase the the quality setting in studio.
