it seems really bipolar right now. its raining on a very sunny day but the rocks are extremely cooly lit, etc. seems to make virtually no sense I'm afraid. I would really sit back and rethink the lighting, perhaps going back to the night but just making the walls brighter

Since the impending deadline, wouldn't be probably more easy just to cut the rain effect for the contest, and then adjust for a final release?

I'd do some more work on the stones above the broken wall in the first screenshot. Bricks like that wouldn't have any mortar (or it wouldn't be strong enough to hold one up like that), so they'd just fall down. Maybe have them coming down but precariously still holding each up.

yes i mean we have to consider the contest and the deadline. i would not presume to tell 3dnj how to do it, but i think if he can get something a bit more coherent (perhaps use aztec's settings? i mean its a pretty similar map to aztec? but then again aztec isn't that popular...) it's tough. a sunny aztec without rain sounds good to me, personally

edit: those screenshots above are a step in teh right direction. i would go with more green shadows though, the purple is a color i'm very biased towards liking, but it's an odd fit for this map

You'll do it in time, and ruins already have his place on my serv like Fmp's (and Kikette) work

Go 3Dnj! you can do it!!

Stuff is looking cool. An easy rule IMO when choosing the ambient light for an outdoor scene is to match the ambient color to the sky color (or pick a light color you like and then fix the sky to match that )

In your map the sky looks pretty desaturated bright blue more towards the green side than the purple at the horizon, don't know what it looks like straight up tho.

I'd say push more purple... and you get the Blood Dragon setting [Blocked Image: http://forum.multiplayer.it/images/faccine/asd.gif]

Jokes aside, do agree with the posts above.

FMPONE: ok, understood

OT: is it really Aztec not popular now? (i've played cs:go just a few times) When i was still playing regularly CS:S a couple of years ago it was still "the shit" for lots of players. Me, personally always hated it, always found it unbalanced for Ts... and always got pounded hard during clanwars

Looks like you will need to rename it.

The new pictures look really nice, but a little dark. Maybe you should make the inside a bit lighter.

That's a totally different map, actually

Any texture art in this "custom"?

I think you want somewhere in the middle. The bottom one looks very flat, the top one looks too low resolution.

Yeah, I think the fact that it's so perfect messes with my head. Maybe add some cracks or push out some pieces?
