I've just started this and I'm about 15 - 20% done. Any advise?

Also, if you feel the need to complain about the screenshots' file size, please leave and get a better connection or something.

screenshots too big. just kidding. This map looks excellent. One thing that I always recommend is that if two textures are touching eachother, dont make them even on the wall. Like those red lights on the wall. Make those bulge out as half-cylinders or make them cave into the wall as an inverted half-cylinder. but too keep it from looking too "wolfenstein3d-ish" I always make the surfaces differnt like that (as long as i can afford it in my VIS budget.)

[edit] make your flourescent bulb looking things bulge out from the ceiling. turn the red square light into a pyramid and make your spotlights less defined. (make them overlap and make them bigger because flourescent bulbs do not make a spotlight.)

wow.. the detail is really nice - simple things like walls and ceilings are turned into works of art here

Thanks for the comments. I don't really know if I want to expand my detail like that. I've tried it before and it didn't really work out as I had planned. I'll leave it like this for now. But we'll see.

Very nice. The lighting could use a little more variation, but is still really good right now. Looks kind of surreal. Maybe could use more cover?

Architechture is solid. I just see a lack of "purpose" in the map (Suppose thats why it's described as a nonsense map) and feel more powerful lighting is needed. I'm a big fan of red and blue together lately, I find that to be powerful.

Yeah, well, I'm trying to stick to one theme. And all I've done so far are three rooms, two of which are shown on the screenshots.
