<div class="IPBDescription">17 images + overhead</div>Ok, here are a few more images from ns_romana (my second project) set in a fission powered chemical plant.
The images have been gamma corrected, but still look a lot darker than they do in-game.
Layout is mostly done, a few small corridors and vents remain, and a few areas need furnishing.
Use the overhead as a guide to it's current progress, not it's final state.
I made the map slightly smaller than normal to try and get a faster pace. It's not too small however that teams will get overrun, and a lot of smaller routes and variations add to the feeling of a map larger than it actually is.
The tram and the conveyers both move, i'll add some particle systems later on to give the look of stuff falling from the drop tubes onto the conveyers etc. Also note it does look very boxy in parts until i've finalised the layout. I'll go back and make the areas a lot more natural and varied.

The key is wrong, yellow are resoure and green are hives. Sadly mass flatulance has dissolved vital parts of my brain thus blocking some simple functions such as color, co-ordination and typi-DHAFDSsssass  smeeee

    I think you have got the 'Hive' and 'Resource' wrong in the Key for the overhead. Unless youre planning to break well away from the mapping guidelines of course. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    In the first, last, and second to last pics, I don't think that texture is very suiting on the walkway. I would imagine one would trip on the grooves <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> I love those fans in pic 10. Sweet idea. I also really like the vents (?) in the 3rd to last pic.

    Looks great. I love the lighting. The only problem I see is the far left hive really only has one way out. You should add an alternate route for the aliens to get out.

    Edit: I just noticed on the last picture the ceiling texture is really stretched out. I can't tell if it's slanted or not, but if it is, make sure the to world flag is checked.

    yep, there is a water pool in the hive which will connect up with another area

    infested areas look great, as do the walkways above da sludge. you may want to make the pathway from the grey area right above the left hive a bit longer.

    I can't see much of anything with the contrast on the monitor here at work. My comments therefore will have to suffice as such:

    Nice name.

    Shouldnt you make that a transparent ladder for the sake of planes?

    I prefer solid railings where possible, planes are fine right now and if they get high i can just replace it

    I think your new map looks great Narb. You dunnit again <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    But i guess it looks like an old, rusty, damaged, broke spaceship, and you -could- remove some of the lights (include them in your map, just make them broke(/flikkering? although this could be irritating))
    I saw them in 8, 11, 14 and especially 15 you could break a (some) light.

    I think it would just look perfect in these corridors, instead of REALLY DAMN GOOD like it does now <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    and its still grey.. very grey.. but as u said, some rooms need "furnishing" so I guees it will be more colorfull later on =)
