I like the red. Map is starting to take on an interesting personality, it's sort of dark still though

[PogoP]

I would crank up the ambient light a bit, make it a darkish blue colour. At the moment it's too dark.

Good luck!

Maybe make some highly reusable modular wall pieces for the perimeter of the map, and roll those out wherever you can. Or perhaps some displaced rocks, which can cover large areas without looking repetitious.

Yeah, I have already a large set of building that I can put everywhere as func_instance, very usefull

Actually I made the most compliced part which where the indoors areas. Outside will be less difficult to do.

Last work :

Hey ! I put a tower as a landmark in the map Inspired from Palenque.

[ElectroSheep]

Lol i'm fucking late

just some shots because I add some spot of light in a lot of places :

[El Moroes]

Sounds really good but still too contrasted for me on my screens.

I think you should increase your brightness to have a warmer atmosphere and, with that, increase your ambiant light (with more blue in it).

What Marc said.

Indoor with same filter.

I agree too, more blue in shadows + orangish lighting, it's what i like

BUT but the fact that the shadows are reddish makes the level stuffy, like a furnace.

^ Ha !

Seldoon, that animated example you gave isn't adding contrast, it's adding light. Contrast is the difference between two things. In the case of mapping it usually means light (intensity and color) or textures. What you've done is brightened the scene and then changed the tone of the color. Your example isn't wrong, but we should be clear about the definitions of terms so as not to be confusing.

As others are saying, it should probably be a little brighter, but I think the warm colors outside are great. They suggest warmth, which is what I think of when I think jungle. However, inside the ruins I agree with the suggestion of cooler colors. The inside is clearly damp (water dripping everywhere) and should be lit cooler. Give the mental cue of a cooler atmosphere with cooler lighting, i.e. blues and greens.

Seriously what is with people telling you to add blue into this map? ffs if you add any blue ill personally kill you
