Quote from JakubsharkHow would I make the map night? Is there a way of doing it?
Altering the skybox in a combination of darkening the light_environment is a good start : -)
I recommend trying to replicate a photo reference of what you are trying to create : -) if it is New York google a bit and make a folder of references and then you pick out the details you think would fit the best
Don´t know about any articles though 
likely someone else here that knows more : -)!
Quote from Bodd JonarI like it, but I feel like there is "too much" going on. Making colors and details less or more thought over might improve this.
Trying to cut down on noise : -) any areas in particular?
CSGO Dota 2 and of course Fallout 4
Quote from wyldeWow man, that last graphics update looks much improved! The huge aqueduct being balanced atop those plaster walls seems to irk me a bit, but the color palate is much better and consistent, and it doesn't look like dust2 any more. The red bricks might be out of place as well. I like the plaster more. Keep it going!
Thanks man : -)! I am going to fix the pillars that support it, I agree plaster is stupid for that location!
Quote from TheGumaYou should prioritize the graphics by making the map design more consistent, not more detailed. Also, work on the texture noise, make sure the fog stays only within the skybox and not the playable areas. Remove the colors that stick out and use them to guide players, perhaps instead of using more colors only have two dominant colors in the map.
Currently your map is very yellow, perhaps add red/yellow palette? Have more buildings in red? Or maybe yellow/blue? See what works for you, usually it makes the map stick out more and make it look less "dust2" from the workshop.
I hope this patch will be an improvement : -)!

Thanks for the feedback : -) I am thinking of choosing the classical blue and orange theme for the level and I will make sure to fix the issues pronto!
Updated yet again with graphics getting prioritized : -)
Next patch will focus on replacing windows that are just stuck to walls like stickers

I recommend adding the bombsites and spawns on the radar : -)
Would be nice if you had windows to A site for when you are going from T spawn to A (Long?), could throw in some flashes some smokes

Perhaps give a sense of scale with some cool focal points?
Quote from QuotingmcPhysics?
These half pillars look really odd, just make the arches bigger and have each support go down to the ground.
The princess castle needs to go, it doesn't make sense imo.
I will be adding broken wall as support in the next patch for the car : -)!
And voila the princess is gone and Arabic architecture took her place!
I will be making the rest of the half pillar however I liked the idea of the pillar being decayed and old so I want to make it a bit better looking with wooden supports and such : -)!

Heya : -) Max Forsberg here a man studying level design in Sweden.
Joined up because I wanted to get more and more feedback for the levels I make and I felt as if this community is very chill and cool!
I love coffee and I can´t get enough of portalvis calculations!
Updated the OG post/level!
Hey, I made a massive patch that I badly need feedback on the sites and middle mainly
Alright I have been updating the level daily for roughly 2 weeks now and I am starting to get into the rhythm of this : -)

Some areas that have been getting more love since the release : -) there is much more to show but I don´t want to keep making walls of screenshots I recommend going to my workshop page for more images!
Quote from Freaky_BananaTheir lighting origin is probably weird. just set info_lighting entities in a place which has lighting similar to the one you want on the prop (preferably place the entities close to the prop in direct line of sight), name the entity and go into the prop's properties. Select the right name from the dropdown menu at lighting origin. There you go
, the prop should be properly lit.
Cheers!
You are my hero : )!!!!
Updated my level with a mayor rework of bombsite B I could use a lot of tips and input on it : -) The graphical glitches and bugs where left there because of the fact that I had to rush this update
By the way why are some props just SUPER bright?
