I haven't walked around it, can't comment on scale/layout; just got back from holiday, I'll try to download this week.

In terms of art @Vaya pointed correctly at the boxyness… I see you angled the window "roofing" but can't see what you did on left building 🤔 anyway, I think Vaya was suggesting to cut vertical corners (just look at Dust maps).

Also streets could benefit from angling some buildings around, having a diagonal street etc (look at the difference that makes the simple angled doorstep in Mirage CT spawn or diagonal stairs to A). Also some (small) height changes of the street level would be good; think of Mirage mid, but of 32-48-64 units instead: that would allow you to use some trims to break up the view without impacting the gameplay as much as a 128 units change (make sure you clip the steps!).

This should help, you have some height variation in the skyline but I think is still a bit boring, you should find space for a hero building to capture the attention and break up the sky and act as reference in the map for players, just look what they did with Underpass.

Another thing I notice from last batch of screens is that you are in-setting many windows too much or none at all. Keep doing what you were doing earlier in August. Also those window "huts" in CT spawn seem to be hanging out too much (I mean they are disproportionate to their width, no underneath support, the second one down seems to be ending lower than the first – consider using different materials i.e. wood for those, look at Assassin's Creed).

@blackdog Thanks i will try this changes. Also workshop layout haven't got the final form since some of the parts of map were done and contest allows just greyboxes.

Really good stuff

It's kinda weird, but I noticed the tower you have is very similar to one I made

It's a tower somewhere in Morocco, I forget exactly where

Maybe we used similar references, or maybe it's just a generic tower design

Also i've changed lighting

 

I'm trying to make map if not looks but feels like a place and working on small details (mainly sounds).

Next week will be a hard work and finishing week for me. Release in 2-3 weeks.

Looking great. You're almost there. Just needs a little grit and some brush detail to round off the boxy edges. Great atmosphere!

Great lighting! Love the latest pic.

Hadnt seen the latest updates, looking good as well. I reinforce what’s been said above and beg you to take the time to polish cos it will pay off. Like the vibe.

Ditch the green tiling tho, or is a lighting bug?

[Harry Poster 222]

@blackdog I think it could be because of Fast compile settings, so bump maps are not very accurate.

Am i understood it right?

[Harry Poster 222]

The most difficult parts are done.

'Drop zone'

T mid

[Balance]

Will make full compile and private tests in 3 days. If you want to take a part ,add me on steam (but let me know that you are from mapcore)
