[UT2k4]CTF-Botanical

[Phobos]

Hey, This is a map I've been working on on and off for a little while. I'm finalzing it for my demo reel and would love some input from you guys. The title is a wip. I've used a little of my own content with a lot of content from unreal. I will hopefully be changing a few pieces into my own later on if I have the time.

The last pic looks like ns hive or something wich i like..

[mike-0]

looks great, but the vines are too dispersed (they should be all over the place) and the rocky ceiling in the last pic is too low poly. other than that, very nice

[Hourences]

Its decent and it is pretty concistent which is good as people often do that wrong in ut2

However you got a problem with leaving things too flat and reperative, which happens mostly on your floors altho the second upper picture also has the problem on the ceiling

Your floors/ceilings are very flat areas with just 1 texture, you should bring in some variation in height and texture change and trim off things.

In the last picture the edge of the concrete really needs trimming for example

Your lighting also is pretty white plus pretty overall, better sourcing and better themed colors might help

I really like it, except the last picture. That little rail there makes no sense to me, and the cape ceiling looks just weird.

I think it looks good. My only crits are the vines being to disburst and they seem really bright, they must be made for outdoor use.

[Lee3dee]

looks very cool. I downloaded it, and will let you know in a bit.

i'd say the veins look a little weird, might want to touch up on those.

on the last shot you have a lot of texture stretching going on, as well as some pretty low resolution textures you may want to fix up as well.

[Minos]

Very nice stuff. I'd get rid of the light fades tho, they look really cheap.

Those first two shots really remind me of the kind of atmosphere created in System Shock 2. Specifically the Arboretum deck about half way through the game.

That's a good thing btw, SS2 is one of best games of all time imho.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I wasn't able to fix much of it. I've got another map in teh works aswell that needs to be finished this week. However I did take into consideration the details throughout the map and a few lighting tweaks.
