I wish I could have done some play tests. Oh well, I'd still love some feed back.

Once I find a host I'll give you all a download. I fixed most of the building and skybox problems. As for the stair case, I wanted it to look half built and quite frankly I didn't want to add more models to the map becuase I was already haveing a hard time with frame rate.

The spiral stair case doesn't look very convincing to be honest - could really use a trim at least, or some handrails. In the first shot you have a building on the left of the road bridge that looks unrealistically thin as well.

Looks pretty cool. Can't wait to try it out. Maybe put a low fence on the sidewalk portion of the park itself, so the little ones don't fall off into the canal. j/k. In picture #2, it looks like the city ends kind of abruptly. Maybe add a few more buildings in your 3D skybox, a little farther in the distance to give your playable area a more central feel. Just a thought. Good job on the map. I like the lighting. Good luck on the contest, too.

LOL @Crono. <br>I have noticed as well my friend, that there is a definite line between the "Be's" and the "Wannabes" ROFL <br> <br>as for the map? the screens are to big, i cannot see them. :/

I think that the map works like it was designed. I could send you a copy of the map.
This is the left side, there is path way from the canal area down the side walk. That is the only way out of the lower area. I'm debating leaving it that way or adding a ladder. I was thinking that one exit would be a good way to punish players for falling down there.
there are many ways across the canal, and the player wont slide off the slant. In the middle there is the RPG.
this is the inside of the main building. the only way up is the center spiral stair. I may add a ladder or second set of stairs.
past the pipes you can see one of the two drain pipes that lead to a hallway back to the surface.

I said it as a comment on the map, but I'll say it here too.
It appears that your connectivity is suffering (badly). It looks pretty though.

Just thought you might like a real comment: <br>... it looks pretty, but it also looks like it has God awful connectivity.

One of the best use of displacement surface in the sewage drain canal, making the serpentine watery path. <br> <br>The parking garage looks interesting too. But are there multiple points of connection between the different levels?

Looks a lot better than most of the DM maps on here. <br>Keep it up!
