This single player map was developed as part of my pgd in games technology. It took about 4 weeks of solid work to get it to this stage. The map is based on the player trying to excape a underground cave complex run by the goverment. The player starts in a prison cell and must make his way through the complex and out into the city.
Keep the input coming, I want this mod to actually be worth a damn. :razz:
You know what game I thought had awesome rock formations? Republic Commando. They're just badass.
In the goldeneye alpha that's floating around there's a cave map in it with phenominal rock displacements. You should check that out too. Because a map in a cavern doesn't have to be dull and boring and to be honest, yours seems to have both attributes.

Jimmi it is possible. You even played many long mods made by only one player!
For example the mod timefall.

I thought it was two people who made CS? At least, that's what I read. Minh Lee (Crazy japanese guy) was one of them, I know that much.
Don't know if anyone mentioned this yet, but those rocks need some work! :razz: They look kinda... Flat. Even in the source engine, you can still use crappy old HL1 techniques to get them to look good. I'd also consider trying some displacements. That tunnel, in the first screen, looks quite simplistic -- perhaps you can beef it up in some way? :smile:
@Baron
The blandness will disappear in time, as I haven't added a lot of excess detail to quite a few of those maps.
Commune
Tram Ride
The first Cave (for those screens)
Hyperblast(the space ship)
Thanks for alerting me about the screens.
Yes, one guy did make Counter strike, some crazy japanese guy I believe;
and boy do we thank him.

@Jimmi: You sir, are wrong. It may take longer, but I don't see any logical barrier preventing any person from learning all the skills it takes to make a mod, and using them to do just that. Just because YOU can't make a mod, does not mean there aren't people more skilled than you that can.
@Stadric: Those URLs lead to thumbnails, and it would be good to use [ url] tags or a combination of [ url] and [ img] tags to have the thumbs displayed here and link to the full image. Also from what I see you have some places that look pretty bland, just a surface covered in a brick texture. And light from fire isn't that orange. Good luck with your mod, in any case :smile:
