I read some reviews on my map and some people seem to think that there are NS textures in there.
I thought a couple of your light fixtures were also in the NS wads. If they're not, I apologise, if it did offend you in some way. Peace.

 

Orph, nice reviews mate. But it seemed you said very little negative about any of them, though it might be because the maps are all uber-perfect, etc.

yeah well, i had a list as long as my arm on each BUT, as i said, since the rules state the map didn't have to be playable, how does one say it was wrong if it didn't have to be right?

see my dilemma, yeah i coulda harped on bad stuff, but these maps were all for fun, and most would not have entered or submitted them had they been maps of perfection..

i figured, write about the good things, and let the others decide the rest..

hope that clarified it a bit.

To me, the point of a review is to focus on what is good and what needs to be improved... Most people can spot the good in a map, but may have trouble spotting the bad, which is where a review is useful, IMO.

dh_sunken: KoRnFlakes
I don't know what dh stands for, but I really like where this map is going. It's far too small to be in the race now, but if you can go along with this, this map will definitely be a winner. I liked all the ambience and atmosphere, especially the underwater effect. The bird flying was a nice touch too, even better since its underwater :biggrin: .  I hope you finish this one KoRn, it deserves completion
i do believe there is a strong possibility it is a referance to his name :biggrin:

Wooo korn. I'm very impressed with what you've done with your map! Looks very top banana and some of your textures are great (masked wire texture & that great bolted type floor)

I would vote for it however i don't think it's fair as i've played no one elses.
