I'd imagine there is no actual water in the map - just bubbles and fog to give the visual cues necessary to hold the illusion. You might consider lowering the gravity a bit to give the illusion of being in heavy old diving kits or something " SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

I wouldn't recommend allowing the players to drown though. The water bug, you know.

Oh, and the light beams in pic 1 look wrong, being yellow when the window/background is green. I know they're a prop but they just don't look right. Other than that, it looks secksy.

Oooh thats looking pretty cool mate " SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> Not often than you see underwater done well, but this really gives off the right sort of feel with the fogging and bubbles. You could put in a few convincing trap effects through use of the good old func_push and copious amounts of bubbles " SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

I think you could do with spicing up the internal architecture a fair bit, as its really somewhat simplistic just now. Pillars, trims, ledges, alcoves, supports - you know the story. Good start though, good luck getting it done in time!
