comment if you get stuck on anything. the demo's probally 5-10 minutes.

No mansion/castle

did you finish the demo?

1. Don't make rooms huge and empty and add detail.
2. Don't stretch carpets or tables too much to the point where it looks horrendous.
3. Don't just add lamps and get satisfied with the basic lighting that comes the model itself, but add point lights and billboards instead to make it look decent at least.

Box lights and fog will be your best friends - if you use them tastefully. Fill out an area as much as possible. Be consistent with your level transitions.

Make sure different room sizes make sense with the overall map; there's nothing more ugly than small corridors with stupidly large rooms attached to them. Also, make sure the map isn't spread out over a large scale; try and make it fit together neatly.

Find the toilet entity from Penumbra/White Night and scale it 100x. Scariest map

i cant find the dirt footsteps. are they suposed to be in the decals cause i tried to look for it

i can find it in the amnesia folder but cant find it in the level editor D:

To use those decals you gotta click the decals' button (or billboard) and place them over an object like a plane or wall.
