Why does this tunnel lead nowhere? Because it's to be used as a infinite scrolling background. I just need to play with the falloff on the pink lights to get rid of the ugly sudden stop along the ceilings. (AKA, The crap you don't notice until your editing your post to point it out for everyone.  )

I like your style. It immediately identifies who made that scene.  |

It's called 32 huge light meshes in a tiny space.  No wonder I'm feeling blue.
The idea was based on this: I had the railings already, but I liked the over arched over hang things, so I borrowed the idea. Then I added the structure around it.
CLICKY
Here it what it looks like in use. ~256 polygons rendered 4 times.
Mappy, I get that effect by using a simple gradient texture for curved surfaces. You need to shade your textures too.

Thanks !
The new picture "in use" is very nice.

I very much like that technique! It would be great to see it end up in a tutorial of some kind. |

| It's not really a technique. It's just a cube with a curved gradient mapped on it. That's what textures are for. You also need to shade your base textures too, otherwise the lightmaps won't do you much good. |

| Nice! I'll bet you can get great framerates with this repeated geometry! (assuming your rendering engine has good handling for loads of different textures). |

I pretty much just render it 4 times brute force with my old dqm renderer. No clue what my fps is on vsync it's always 59.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
I'd like to move over to vertex arrays though. |

Looks great VD! It reminds a bit of that UT2003 level where you play on the last roof of some skyscrapers and it's got many neon lights aroung with similar color tones.
Besides that it's an interesting metaphore of a bridge to infinity! |

It's a puzzle game. I wanted 3d backgrounds, but skyboxes or boxed in 3d levels that rotated a bit either looked bland or could make people who don't like 3d game dizzy. So I came up wiith the tunnel idea. |

Line up floating objects to match 3 or more. |
