thoughts anyone? keep in mind that this is mostly only the basic architecture.

You need to have a download of your map available on another site and then have the URL for that download.

Sorry, i was just seeing if that worked as a long shot and forgot to remove it. i dont know enough html to set up the download, so im frantically searching for a tutorial.

It looks like... Something made for Half-Life 1..

Even if this is the basic architecture, it still seems rather bland and
boring. It's too open too. You really should scale it down and add some
more points of interest. It basicly consists of two main rooms with
hallways around it. Which isn't so nice either.

Yes, yes it does.

BVS, try upping cylinder side values and lowering texture values (the concrete looks a bit overscaled.) Try spicing up the architecture as well. Right now it's just box cooridors.

To name a couple that will help.

it looks quite interesting actualy, it's verry basic and no objects yet
as you aid, overal looks pretty neat, maybe make some interesting
corners , support beams etc. but i bet you will do that later :smile:

keep it up, this looks liek a nice map that i would play :smile:

Just in addition to the two that Crono linked to, you might wanna check out this one on detailing your architecture...

You just had to polish off the self-pimpage didn't you? :smile:

No light sources in your map yet somehow the blackness has been lifted by some sort of magic.

Wouldn't be a complete set without the third Crono :wink:

I think it's a good start, and could look pretty good with a bit of
detail. Play with the lighting so you get some nice shadows. :smile:

in spite of the curves in the halls, its still to square..

rooms can have 90* corners, but rooms dont have to have only 4 walls.. make alcoves.

its a good start, but only good.

thanks a lot, guys! yeah, it seemed a little bland, i just didnt know
what to do about it. ill definitely read those tutorials and update the
architecture before filling up the rooms...

Hmmmm gotta love those invisible lights....

:razz:

/edit

nevermind, for some reason you can navigate my site to the screens, but
you cant get to them via a direct link... anyway, im working on a
pretty cool hallway. if you feel so inclined you can go to my site and
click "screenshots"

Edit: there used to be a link here, but I forgot my password and the host sucked anyways.

Not in any condition to be shown off yet. Sorry.

Good god you think you could have any more banners?

yeah, the site is mainly for a place to host screens and maps and such,
i might take it further depending on how much time i have in the
future. and the banners come with the free hosting. i am, as of right
now, a freelance mapper/student(meaning i dont have a job) and
therefore i do not have money for web hosting.
