almost finished architecture

[Z(Rus)]

************ ERROR ************

a couple of screenshots

What's the r_speeds of the most expensive scenes when you play?

[Z(Rus)]

not yet tested
need more optimization, i only optimize portalclusters 4213 -> ~2100+

 

and need do something with 3D skybox

[fKd]

looking really awesome man, keep those shots coming!

 

as far as MAX_MAP_VISIBILITY. make some textures with the surfaceparm nonsolid and use weapon clip brushes round lots of those patches. i had this issue with my last comp map. this seems to fix it. just gotta find that sweet spot where the map will compile without errors. good luck!

Hey Hipshot, I did it...why these two textures are not looped?))

[Hipshot]

Uhm... because it's - uneven?

[Z(Rus)]

i think need add more lights

[Thurnip]

i think the shadows are too hard, too dark.

Are you planning more lights to change this?

keep it on

This map looks stunning!

 

It's hard to tell how it will play from a gameplay perspective based on the screenshots, seems like a lot of symmetry which typically doesn't work very well for a deathmatch map.

symmetry can be broken using proper placement of items
