...and looking at the windows in the "main" alley...I need to use grayish window textures instead of blackish (They reflect nicely in game with specular on as black). It would be consistant with the second shot scene. That would make sense I guess.

My wife tells me the part of New York that store was...she doesn't doubt that would happen. She's from Yonkers and knows the neighborhoods to avoid I guess (especially on black friday). The sad part is the dude that was killed was pushed against glass until it broke.

Quote from D3ads

What the fuck? Is there some kind of food and supplies shortage in that part of NY or something?!!

...No. For those of you that don't know, "black friday" is the day after Thanksgiving (A U.S. holiday) where just about all stores open early and have a huge price sale on thier merchandise. Sometimes cutting prices by 60-75% on such big ticket items like HDtv's and camera's. It works on a "first come first serv basis"...hence the stampede of people.

Quote from Sentura

why not make that square opening an arched opening?

...What screenshot are you talking about here? If you mean #5 (in the most recent screenshots)...I'm gonna use it.

If not...I'm curious. Where did you mean?

I will get to curving the road and adding more props. Thanks for the info.

RA7,

I took into consideration what you said about the lighting....fooled around alot today with it and I feel morning / dusk just doesn't set right with me on this particular map. I did darken up the shadow areas. I think it makes it look a bit better. I will add skyscrapers in the skybox for sure...The buiding being built is a great idea.

Those windows are dark because I had specular off for some reason. Updated ones WITH specular on:

I added more recent shots of the map to the first post to prevent flooding the post with older pics. I added alot more detail and adjusted the lighting alot. Any crits will be welcome.

Love the deer detail.

The episode with Tom Brady is the best....you know; sha-boo-pee...and the Osama bin Laden out-take at the beginning. Classic.

I do agree it's getting stale...yet I keep watching.

Quote from Freak

are you sure with this flat rock wall in the first and last screenshot?anyway, nice work, i like it

Yeah...There was alot of "what the hell was I thinking" with this map. I intended to just do a straight up port from the original 1.6 map... Then I got carried away in some spots and lazy in others. I actually never took a second thought of that rock cliff edge until you mentioned it. A project that was intended to take a week took me almost a year (With family and job obligations in the way).

It's like a big weight off my shoulders to finish this map.

This map looks fantasmic...the interior is awesome. The only things I can suggest is add powerlines and road marks/potholes/man-hole covers, etc.

Possible name suggestions:

cs_nukecity

cs_skyrisen

cs_dukecity

cs_...

bah...I'm bad at this game.

keep up the awesome work.

This was posted in another forum...and I laughed so hard soda came outmy nose to the response...

This is the best thing I my eyes have ever seen. the second my retnia could comprehend the hot ness, semen came FLLLLLYING out of my p3nis.

it was EVERYWHERE, everywhere but on the hawtness cause such a beatiful thing is too good for a facial from mbd.

and i didn't get to the EMENCE AND CRAZY orgasm I had from witnessing the best piece of art in the world.

then after looking looking in the mirror I checked the forums, saw this, then I almost died from this pos. learn to fucking model nub.

oh hai...I bet it would look great compiled.

Quote from Minotauro

Looks promising so far. My main problem with the map is that all paths are very narrow and that can seriously harm the gameplay. This map is desperately crying for huge distant landscapes in the background, make good use of the 3d skybox feature! Furthermore, you could decrease the lightmap size in faces that receive detailed shadows such as the concrete wall in the last screenshot. Keep up the good work!

The pathways are deceiving in the screen-shots. There is plenty of room to move around. The skybox is on the way (usually the last thing I do). As for the lightmap size...I kinda like the crisp shadows. I only did that to certain areas I felt could use some pop.

Tanks for that feedback!

Updated the first post.

...Didn't catch that. Thanks RA7.

RA7!

yeah...the crates are there until I figure something else out.

phat....wurd.

Yeah...It looks good. REAL good.

Looking good so far! Doesn't look like common source stuff...Only crit would be the trunk of the tree models look kinda un-natural with a clear flat trunk ( Not the palm trees) in the ground...maybe some roots showing? If the models are like that anyway...
