Hi guys, been a while. Heres screenies of one room, the Marine Spawn. I will not be showing off any of my hives until more of the corridors are completed along with minor rooms. This is just a very small teaser, the marine spawn (In My Opinion) has to flat a ceiling and may change. I await your suggestions and comments.

I really like the lighting there. Architecture seems a bit simplistic as of now, but not to the extent that it really looks bad. And you've certainly got the r_speeds to add in a bit more detail in the future.

I like the architecture, but door frames would improve it a bit. The lighting seems very murky for a marine start, try brightening it up.

<b>RoadsToNowhere: </b> I thought it looked a little simple. Just I was pushed for time as I have recently bruised my ribs and it is hard to do anything.

<b>ChromeAngel:</b> The lighting is not ment to be too bright, nor too dark. The idea of this is because so many people are making very bright spawns and very dark maps. It looks a bit wrong, the lighting is brighter than I would have liked it however. The lighting is how it is so you jsut about notice the difference between the "pink" lab textures and the "silver" lab textures.

ChromeAngel

But can you see the difference between the pink textures and the pink skulks? The old hallways in 11th hr were like that, I wouldn't want you making the same mistakes I did.

Angel

I apprecite you looking out for me Chrome. So far with the playtesting (Within the Intercontinenatal NS Clan I am in" they found the marine spawn with its darkness is starting to balance out the rest of the map, in which it keeps the atmospheric look. Below is a minor update, especially about that ceiling. It hasa middle "slant" in it. more shaping on the upper pink area is yet to come.

Did you ever ask any of the 3-4 times you've taken parts of my site to use as your own? :X

Angel

KFS Why ask that? I don't even make my own sites! In actual fact I got my friend "Jae Infamous" To make it. And my layout was largely based around his. If you live in Canada you are likely to know him, if you want the url private message me. He runs Illimitida Records .inc. And KFS Why cant you just reply to the topic on hand like normal people?

Oh and btw KFS. if you are accusing me of "stealing" i would look at Bluemans website layout.
