WIP in WIP, post your level screenshots!

Ferret you can do better! (yea i know its wip)

Add ceiling windows, support pillars etc. might work!

@ Bronts

I always wondered, how do you make the curves (with texture) so even? Good job so far!

Displacements ?

Minotauro - The roads are 384 pixels wide, you can pretty much fit 3 buggies side by side on the road. WE have been making a source version for awhile, but over the past year the team has had a lot on, I traveled around europe for 6 months, fragmented did some traveling plus finishing his last year of uni, so just recently (the last couple of weeks) things are really picking up.

dissonance - I will add something there to make the road look right. At the moment when you go over it, it is like a bit of a jump

TeddyBear - As for the corners being so smooth, KoKo5oVaR is right they are displacements using the subdivide tool. It can be quite a tireless process sometimes having to raise and lower the corners, but I think it is worth it for the results. I plan on writing a tutorial on how to do it, plus a few tips that I have learnt.

That'd be pretty cool. please do.

I was iffy about the lighting. I'll still throw in props as I make them. Maybe some support beam structure in the middle of the room. I need some ideas on how to improve the architecture of the room. Also, those light beams against the wall have recessed lighting sources. I modeled a light fixture that go into the ceiling.

Somehow your map reminds me of SOF2, Ferret..

never played it =/

I have started work on a couple of tutorials on how to create the smooth corners. We have a Wiki type setup over on our site. So I just popped up a basic tutorial and an intermediate one.

The basic tutorial creates a flat 90 degree corner where the intermediate tutorial creates a 90 degrees corner but gives a bit of an angle.

I plan on also writing up an advanced tutorial to highlight all the other little things I have learnt, like making a cliff right on the side of the road etc

Anyway here is the link

any feeback would be much appreciated, I have really written any tutorials before

Pure blasphemy! You officially fail.

[Spellbinder]

Awsome Bronts! Could help a lot of people!

[Tequila]

Bet those took you a while.

And good God man, a 1.2Mb .jpg? Are you on crack?

[Kabelen]

Wow nice work with the vertexes. Too bad it's hl1/cs or something though, but of course, that makes it even better to have done all that without the displacement function for source!

[Sindwiller]

Displacements kinda suck for walls, because they have a very awful control when you move the vertices.
