Here is the complete set of Archvile attack brightmaps. The resurrection frames don't really need brightmapping (what was I thinking...)

After more than a year, these took a couple hours to do. I love irfanview.
EDIT: And I hate imageshack.

Whoops, Thanks enjay.

Awesome and very sexy. This should be incorporated into brightmaps.pk3 officially.

As of r602 I think they are

- added brightmaps for Arch-vile

Neat, thanks graf!

How about the first frame brightmaps? I only brightmapped the hands for the first frame, since that was the only obviously yellow part of the sprite (for most rotations), but does it look inconsistent when it goes from that frame to the next more brightmapped frame?

The hands are fine. A bigger problem is that the brightened area in the following frame is too sharply defined. In really dark areas it stands out a bit and if you want to improve things the VILEH and VILEI frames are the best candidates.

That is quite impressive. The ArchVile has a mind-numbing number of frames so I can only imagine the amount of time required to do all that. Personally, I lack that level of patience.
