Counter-Strike : Bomb/Defusion - 48 starts defined. (yes it's huge )

The bomb targets are indicated with site A and B tags.

Notes:

The map is the exact copy of the commercial center.
I took a picture of the emergency evacuation map and used it as a template.
I also took a lot of pictures of the center itself for dimensions and textures purpose.
The v2 will be more detailed and with less reflection/tiny brushes problems.
here is a lot of reflections.
If this affects your machine, you can set mat_specular to 0 in the cobsole (take several seconds).

Very convincing, in fact probably the most convincing shopping centre map I've come across. However, that doesn't stop it being a bit dull and empty in places. The first shot looks really quite impressive but a couple of niggles such as the pictures on the pillars being wider than the pillars themselves, and the crates looking rather out of place, do detract a bit. Second shot looks not bad but to me the highly detailed prop tables kinda clash with the almost minimalist vibe the rest of the map is giving off. The third shot is just so empty and simplistic, it really calls out for additional detail. The walls are just long expanses of flat texture - how about some closed toilet doors, shop fronts, pictures, maps, whatever? Your elevators are also looking a bit pants in there to be honest; how about making them glass sided instead of just solid metal? The last shot, again, suffers from boring walls, but its quite a nice area otherwise.

I love the way you have done all the floor detail though, with all the markings and shapes. Very realistic
