    My exam of 3D. Just forgot to put a model of a prop (streetlamp) in my final render Very stupid i know, I was just way to tired at the moment.

    Maybe you could render it with some nicer lighting? It's a bit flat and dull at the moment. Don't know what kind of rendering tools you have access too, but some light bounce and softer shadows or so would probably be nice I would guess. I like the buildings a lot though!

    I like the ideas a bit, I'd get rid of the ceiling fluorescents(I find they don't fit the style too well) and rather add some nice bulb lights on the walls, maybe with a direction upwards for some nice lighting, it's a bit bland at the moment. If it gets too dark perhaps add a light in the ceiling along the style of this: [Blocked Image: http://tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:p_7zHLeTXIy-_M:http://www.stylepath.com/local_image/85/20/58520%3F1189904523].

    Also the bed-niche I find a bit weird, very dark and small in there, I'd make the niche wider to let in some more light(and make some room for people who want to get into the bed from the side), and make it less deep as well, the middle of the room is very empty, I'd use some of that for the bed instead.

    At the pool I'd add some lights as well, along the walls. Maybe some cliffs or grass for the backdrop up there, it's a bit empty at the moment. Maybe a nice pattern in red tiles at the bottom of the pool?

    whoaa what is with the crazy people running on the train tracks ?! D:

    Hipshot the crazy motherfucker wouldn't get off the train tracks with only 2 minutes to go until it arrived, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and leap down after him, chase him and throw him up on the tracks

    Also Henning: REALLY awesome pictures, you really nailed late summer Stockholm, the time I like it best, too bad no one took you out in the archipelago . I like them a lot.

    PhilipK is sad, I look like The Predator.

    Well, being on the moon the lighting makes a lot of sense. Perhaps place some search/floodlights illuminating out into courtyard from the bases or so?

    Looks really nice! Always digged moon levels, is it on any servers yet?

    Wow brisc, that looks pretty damn amazing, real nice work, it just calls for a DoD conversion as well, a nighttime raid in the schwarzwalds!

    use transformation in photoshop on the last one so you get decent 90°otherwise: Nice shots!

    Imo the crooked angle is precisely what makes this shot seem so eery, creepy and weird, I say keep it crooked.

    Get fucked. Just kidding! Hi voodoo

    Greetings, my fellow worshipper of the crate. Too many moons have passed since our last cabal, much too many. I will make sure to discuss some important matters of banning and commencing to map with you once I find a way to escape this alternate plane/dimension of horror and wonder known as Thë Wörkpläce.

    Go forth with god, and remain strong. If our fates will us so, then we shall meet again.

    Hey, voodoochopstiks here (note only one C ) from Grin! Hello to everyone! I've been lurking for a while and I am now making my appearance from the barnacles on the dark underbelly of the leviathan we know as The Mapcore, which swims and roams the depths, corals and abysses of the seven seas of Leveldesign!

    My first name is Daniel and my last name is Platt, feel free to add the two names to the post.

    Hipshot's name is Jochum Skoglund and Oski's is Oskar Törnros, I'm sure they won't mind being added, a good list never hurts.

    That Statue and Mountain in the background would look awesome.

    Not only awesome - but Rio!

    Hi, Really nice work on this map, think it looks really rad, I especially like what you have going on with the silhouettes and skylines, very cool stuff with the cliffs/rooftops and antennae going all around.

    Gameplay also looks quite vertical with lots of ups and downs which is always nice imo. However, I do think that the streets look a little empty, maybe a street vending kiosk or two, benches, a few trashcans and maybe some touristy little stands(postcards) outside a store or so[maybe too poly heavy and fiddly?], just a bit of general prop population to give players some small cover and street busyness. Otherwise I'm really liking it, looking forward to a beta.
