lol well yes but thats not what i meant i mean that you make entity called cycler, properties, world model, browse, choose garbage model in the garbage folder, click ok and voila you have a garbage model that looks detailed!

theres all kind of models! havent you noticed most maps have similar windows or trees?

Didnt notice the text under as it looked like your signature anyway how long you been mapping? as you dont seem noobish and yet you find it hard to find all the stuff you want?

ive only mapped for about 3/4 of a year and yet i find mapping easy apart from detail and getting something to work is simple if you think hard and try hard

It's got a new URL -

http://www.twhl.co.za.

And you use prop_ entities for prop models now, not cyclers.

hurry with the damned link, i cannot wait to give this map the attention it deserves.

you, my friend will have the pleasure of my first HL2 critique. let us hope you did a better job than you have shown so far.

i just love putting arrogance where it belongs.

before you say it, if you are half as good as you think you are, i will tell you, there won't be any doubt when i am finished. :/

I looked over the map. considering the level of cooperation, it was about the quality i expected.

i have nothing positive to say, but considering i also have nothing negative to say, count your blessings.

the map is what i would expect from an entry level mapper, your basic "maze" type of setting, one not very conducive with HLDM play.

the lighting was poor at best.

my chief complaint was the incredible process just to download the thing. it was horrible. i suggest another host cause this one reeks. i almost gave up after the 4th or 5th forwarded page.

if you want a better critique, i suggest you sweet talk someone else cause mine would not be favorable to your... disposition.

i saw no outright glaring errors. i do feel with a bit of restructuring the map could play well, but in its current form, i do not see it doing very well in any credible review sites.

i give it a 6/10.. and thats generous.

one final suggestion, you may take it or leave it. until you open yourself to criticism, and stop informing people what you will not do, your maps will prolly not advance much beyond this stage. shame to cause i see skills yet untapped. it would be a shame if you failed to humble yourself to your peers. you will find that your friends are not the ones telling you what you would like to hear.

i've said my piece, please do not ask for clarification.

you have the strangest way of saying "thank you"

lets see how the others critique this thing, then we'll see who laughs shall we.
