You totally need to make a red room that has something super-duper-awesome in it as itll scream significance.

Thanks guys!
I'm happy you guys like it. I busted my ass to finish the last room. I was going to make it completely indoors, but I thought I'd keep the pattern and leave it a bit open.http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/3113/21ab8.jpg

That's it for the layout. Now I can focus on the textures and the detail. I'll make a new thread for all of that probably tomorrow. I'll stop posting in the WIP thread now.
You should consider making some faces have more detailed lightmaps as theres a lot of great opportunities for kick ass shadows to heighten the atmosphere.
Edit: Looks like its been released

If you feel the need to build stuff fast, I suggest just building single scenes and varying all of them quite a bit to show what youre capable of. Building a level usually takes a month or more (at least for me, anyways). The single scene thing really helped me make lots of stuff in under a month, but make sure that you have some real levels made as a lot of places ask for demo levels.
Frankly I think portfolios should be nothing but:

Orgasmic.
Edit: Now that Ive closed my mouth, I think the trees arent nearly up to par with the rest of the map
Also there are some major performance issues as stated earlier in the thread. My 3ghz, Geforce7800 equipped computer runs at an average of 30fps. -
Raven has been trying to hire alot of people lately. So far I've heard of 4 people Raven has gone to, through both IM and email. Anyone know what theyre working on?

Looks good, but the announcer was talking BS about redefining the genere etc.

Quote from killertomato
Oh yeah, that's really constructive too. Every MOD has to start somewhere, right?Thanks for nothing mate.
I agree but what im saying is thats the level of completion nearly all HL2 mods stay at. For some reason few modellers can skin/UV their stuff which means more people are needed, and then people cant figure out how to get the model ingame so progress just stops.
-
Models renders and Hammer maps with little to no custom content, and definetly no custom models/code/gfx ingame. That about sums up 95% of HL2 mods.

Ill have to download this and give it a shot when I leave work. Sounds great according to Rick_D.

It looks like CG, but made so that it looks like its ingame.
Who knows though, could actually be ingame, but I doubt it.
