[WIP] Domain

[English Mobster]

Uploading Alpha to Filefront right now. Same deal as last time, it gets taken down after a day.

KNOWN BUGS:
Map needs to be portaled. Decals, etc. are taking up WAAAY too much memory and, while framerate isn't hit, muzzle flashes, explosions, flamethrower flames, etc. are.
Also, the stairway to heaven the rocket launcher by the red base has an area where you need to crouch down due to me fucking up the ceiling. Also, speaking of fucking up the ceiling, that same ceiling isn't UVW'd due to me getting sidetracked.
And yes, I realize that there are windows in the building by the Wraith which aren't windows on the other side.

Uploading Alpha to Filefront right now.

GONE!

while it may look bad, the streets and lighting has a ODSTesque feel to it.

Keep it up.

I think its great that you are ambitious, but I'd start smaller next time. Modeling, texture placement, and level design (this is the most important; I've seen CS:S levels that keep people entertained for hours and all they have is the original prototypical blocks) are skills that take time to get good at. I'm not the greatest at it, but this is what people tell me.

And, to be quite honest, it isn't too bad. You could work on scaling your textures.

Thanks for the input, guys.
I have a sketch done of the layout of another (original) map, "Gridlock". Unless anyone finds any more bugs, Domain just needs a bit more tweaking (portal placement, fixing the stairway, finish UVWs) before moving into a beta stage.

The concept for "Gridlock" is this:

It will lie directly to the south of Domain.

can you fix the large sloped section near the wraith? you are able to climb around 70% of the way up it. it could become a really bad camo/sniper camping spot-------------------------------------------------E:i'll put a picture explaining later if i'm not understood

[English Mobster]

I know what you're talking about. And yes, I'll fix it.

Man I didn't even know about this today how unfair I want the Alpha!

[English Mobster]

You'll have to wait until I can get the rest of this textured, then I'll release a beta.

Can you get on X-Fire I want to talk man!
