Thx Frag
"-Change the sky, it looks ugly :/" - yup, ForceFlow mentioned this as well so i'll find something better
"-In the low level shot, the undersides of most of the structures dont have very good definition..." - yeah, there's a lot of stretched textures to get wpoly down but i'm hoping to get round this.
"-The landing strip really ends very abruptly. ROund off the edges, or add a ramp or build a wall around it." - good idea, will go for rounded bits as they won't affect polys too much in those areas.
"-Textures on the model look very bland" - prolly because most of that model has shiny surfaces, its very spiffy imo
"-In the spaceship pic, the ground texture looks overstretched, and the texture on the wall behind the ship is misaligned" - yup, its another stretched tex for the landing platform, i'll have to improve it and the weird wall.
"-The corridor with a crate room is brilliant. Just do something about the shaderlab roof texture, it looks out of place." - agreed, i'll rip it out and use something that matches.
bleh, the strip lights are staying in
Sabotage away just checked and they're mostly NS/HL and a couple from CS/VS.

I don't know ... if you darken it a bit, it would be good, I suppose, but now it looks so bright ... <br> <br>And congratz, you just sent in snarkpit's 300'st HLDM map ! joy !

Very nice. I don't like those huge strip lights in the last screenshot though. Some of the outside textures seem highly stretched, but there isn't really much you can do about that.

It's looking quite good BH. A few things I can think of
-Change the sky, it looks ugly :/
-In the low level shot, the undersides of most of the structures dont have very good definition... They look somewhat bland. Maybe use better textures, add borders around or something
-The landing strip really ends very abruptly. ROund off the edges, or add a ramp or build a wall around it.
- <3 those lights
-Textures on the model look very bland
-In the spaceship pic, the ground texture looks overstretched, and the texture on the wall behind the ship is misaligned (I think)
-The corridor with a crate room is brilliant. Just do something about the shaderlab roof texture, it looks out of place.

Hmm ... I like the architecture, but that's one ugly skybox.
