This is a a discussion topic for the map "de_boshi" by habboi which can be found here

Map description:

This is my first CS: Source map and it has a couple of bugs which don't affect gameplay but look odd. I know about them but I have spent a long time on this map and many have told me to leave it as it is and just improve on the next map.

- This is my fourth Source map - de_boshi has taken me 3 months and although I don't think it's my best work, it is a rather nice map and I wanted to get it out the way before I start other projects. It's set in an abandoned lab / warehouse with 2 bombsites. I believe it is more Terrorist friendly as they are quite near to bombsite B. It comes with a .nav for bots and is a rather small map. It should be played with a maximum of 10 and a minimum of 4. The architecture may seem slightly off. This map is dedicated to Adam Holt so have a great life from Will.

More opinions there...

A lot of people liked it and I thought I waited long enough to post it here.
I will make sure to improve the next time I make a map. Right now though i'm busy with Nightfallmod.net

*EDIT* For some odd reason the pictures are not uploading even though I have attempted twice now.

So here are imageshack links:

Actually looks really good! Is the blur in the 2nd photo gas? I'd suggest taking off the download link as the final for now, leave a bit of play testing to be done first. Also I can notice from the screens that there are some jaggedy curves- you can use a special compile option to make curves look really good.

I.....I don't understand. How can you make this and also that old contribution to the mosaic? Its just such a jump in quality it really leaves me rather speechless! Make sure all of your work is at least at this quality and you'll get a much better reputation. <br> <br>If these two shots are indicative of the whole map, then I feel it could probably have used a bit more variety. As it is you have a fairly nice set of textures working together, but they appear to be used on ALL their relative surfaces (eg. one floor texture used throughout). You should also avoid using point_spotlights on non-point lights - strip lighting really doesn't look right with a spotlight originating from a single point. Pretty nice work judging by the screenshots though smiley

Heh the mosaic was poor mate! <br>I make much better crap than that smiley <br> <br>Hence this smiley <br> <br><a href="http://img256.echo.cx/my.php?image=skytrainfinal00169px.jpg" target="_blank">http://img256.echo.cx/my.php?image=skytrainfinal00169px.jpg</a> <br> <br>My best work so far smiley <br> <br>Anyway i'm glad you like it, I tested it with bots, 3 servers are currently hosting it because they like it. <br> <br>By the way I started this way before the mosaic, in fact 3 months worth of work. <br>I spent an hour on mosaic...understand now smiley <br>I purposely used the same texture for a reason. <br> <br>What else can I use to light up a map? <br> <br>Again i'm glad you like smiley <br> <br>*edit* There is a corridor that i'm afraid is very noobish! I had to quickly finish it which resulted in that poor area. Please excuse it!

I meant avoid using the entity &quot;point_spotlight&quot; - the one that gives the beam effect - on strip lights, not avoid using light entities at all smiley
