thx

hmm, too much red or too much gray? :wink:

also i'm not really sure which room seems a tad empty to you, care to point me to the relevant screenshot? bear in mind that i can't add panels or bars everywhere: not only to keep fps above the fps of the standard hl2dm maps, but i also want a kind of balance between rough (concrete) and crisp (panels/bars).

Very impressive.

I have a problem with the texturing, however. It's too gray and there are big brushes without any structure or something the eye could hold on. That causes some of the rooms to feel a bit empty.

That red-striped-concrete-wall-texture looks a tad overused. Apart from that, it's quite nice looking :smile:

yeah crisp stylish elements covering simple concrete shapes, to have a kind of renovation feeling, that was the aim :wink:

Looks pretty styled. :smile: Especially the outside looks very impressive. The inside looks more like some basic hallways, but with stylized architecture, but I guess that kinda works for such a map.
You could turn some of those things into models, easier reuse, smaller file, better performance, less limits to worry about, less control over lighting though. Just an idea. :smile:

if you'd check the profile of that competition room you'll see that i already said back then that i would turn that into a full blown FF map :wink:

I'd consider it damned lucky that I recall anything around here Bister.

The architecture in that last screenshot looks reminiscent of your competition entry..

Coincidence?
