Yeah, layout looks like it'll make for some excellent gameplay. <br> <br>Very tasty.

Very nice, i love the design. However, without the 3D skybox, it has a hl1 feel to it. Good job!

The map looks quite nice. <br> <br>Just something I noticed - why are all the higher-quality HL2DM custom maps set at sunset?

Impressive, but the overall feel is very reminescent of a HL2 commercial single-player map. This could be a good thing (on the high caliber of your brushwork) or a bad thing (not the most original concept). <br> <br>I know the map is too far along to have you change the theme, but perhaps you can add something very original in the map? I can't think of anything right at this moment, but even if I do, you should be the one coming up with ideas (otherwise it wouldn't be *original*, right?).

Looks excellent so far. Might i suggest adding a sea 3d skybox? <br>[edit] <br>Get rid of the crane on the right (pic #1); i know it's a model, but it looks bad.

Some really nice work there mate, great job. How does it run though? I'd have thought with all such an open layout, so many polys (by the looks of it anyway), and water to boot, this would be pretty poor in terms of performance. Best of luck in the contest anyway, it sure looks the part!

I'm really looking forward to the release of this map - great work! Third screenshot looks a little grim/grey, but otherwise, fantastic map.

It's called sunset monkey. You know, that time when the sun is large but it's angle means that it isn't as bright and its getting dark. <br> <br>Also the sun is just below the edge of the lower dam, so most of its light is cut off. You can really only see it here, about the highest place in the map, and in a few other high places.

One thing is kinda bothering me, though it could be my insanity acting up again; i feel the map is slightly overloaded. Don't know exactly how to say it...oh, that's it: not too many large and open spaces at ground/play level. But this could be a matter of personal tastes...

Wait till you play it andrei before making that comment, you'll be surprised at how much open space there is, and also the actual scale of the map. I'm actually reducing some of the open space as there's too much!

Well, I guess I shouldn't have judged it by the screenshots. But it's not like I were throwing rocks or anything; just a personal impression:) .

I realised that. I wasn't snapping at you, just pointing out that the screenshots don't give an accurate impression of the size of the map, or the actual combat space.
