    okay then...

    Marine start is in the middle of the map.
    The hallways leading out of MS do not connect to the inner ring - they only connect to the outer ring.

    and... comments? suggestions?

    center marinestarts barely worked in the past. lets see how your map does.

    looks pretty detailed, not like this "I mate ar map wizz hammer in 2 hour!!!1111 l000oolz!"
    I like it when people use their brain for thinking <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    will take a look at it when I got home in the afternoon.

    @ontopic: Pretty good looking map, I like the smoke and the water, and the rocks aren't completely flat at least. Other than that...it'd be interesting to see a server run this (and not just for the sparks coming out of the server <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    MS is too close to the hives. It looks like you can siege from one room over.

    beleive it or not, you just can't seige except from the hallway/rooms directly next to the hives =P

    ty for the construtive criticism.


    Looks like I've gotta seriously work on the poly count then =/

    any ideas on how? I'll probably extend the walls in the center room out to visblock more. But I don't know any good ways of reducing other areas without just deleting them =/

    EDIT:: hmm actually there's some truth there in the statement about seiging. I thnk I'll have to add some vents to compensate for it being a little easy =/

    Kobayashi- use a short hallway with "half broken" doors- one half closed on one side, and on the other side of the hall, have the opposite half closed <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Keep them as world-brushes so they act as vis blockers <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Viola!

    I'm going to add a hallway splitting the cargo bay in half, and might just delete the other half. As well, I think I found what was splitting brushes in the hive, so I func_walled those and it should be better. I extended the arches in the central area to block more of the view, and that should help bring it under 800 polys.

    As for the structures, I don't know... It worked fine when I set up a server to test it out with a couple of friends. And on a lan server it works fine with cheats enabled. I'll move everything up above the z axis when i recompile it again and see if that works.

    As for the too-large-rooms, good point, I'll probably have to section off alot of them. It'll help with the polys anyways =P Now t figure out how to do it while keeping the general shapes of the room =/

    hives like the cargo and the pipe wall one because they are empty in the midle.
    good wlls floor nice roof but are so large must put some kind of computer.
    try reduce the number fo texturelights repeatness, not the number of light points but the size of it.
    the iner ring try close more the windows.
