The area with the fountain looks very square and boring. Vary the height of the roofs and set up a light_environment so it casts some nice shadows and also brightens the area up a bit.

Some more suitable lighting would improve the dungeon too.

Looks good, but as I commented early on in the map profile, I don't think the light in that hall would stream in through the windows on both sides of the room.

pretty cool! I'd suggest more ceiling depth cause its kinda flat and vary your lighting a little bit by adding highlights. Its too murky atm. Swell job!

Sound of the outside scenes need to be a lot brighter. But nice progress smiley

Thanks for the reply Jfry! The fountain atm has gone, because i am rebuilding that area, i'll look into making the fireplace cast some light,i didn't see that :S The floating candles are part of the map as they are in the movie, and the reason the whole level is in a sky box is because i will do the sky box last because i am adding in more areas. Thanks for the help smiley

Its looking good so far. Nice atmosphere all around and the connectivity is very good. If the entire thing ends up looking like the dining hall then it should be a very good map. I did find a couple wierd things tho... The water in the fountain has some very high waves. The fireplace is casting no light, right next to some torches on the wall which do cast light. The windows in the room with the floating candles look kinda odd(not to mention the floating candles!). I'd get rid of them or at least replace them with a different window texture. Also I'm assuming you have a leak since the whole level was in a skybox. If you haven't already fixed it I'd be happy to have a stab at it.
