On second thought, tone it down a bit. Or try making the spot yellow and the fill grey-blue. 

but looking good. 

skacky you a very talent guy!

keep it up! 

Sure, I'll send you a mail pretty soon. Domes are welcome since I already have quite a lot of brushes in the level. :p

I changed the yellow light for a very cold orange and I think it looks better. It's less piss and more subtle.

.. but the waterfall has too much transparency IMHO... 

but practically where is the water coming from? The top part should be set further down so it doesnt look as flat as it does at the moment.

Then again it probably will depend on player's perspective when he looks up, ie will the player be as high as where the shot's taken from? 

SHOTS. All looking good in their respective ways. Keep it going mapperz :) 

The player won't be that high up singe the waterfall is flowing down the slope. and also, do you want me to change the alpha scale or remove it? 

The boxes shown at the bottom of that fall have some weird proportions. Doesn't feel right. 

agree re transparency.
Completely disagree re looking top part being too high, re boxes being bad proportions. 

Left one is 64x64 but only 32 high. Middle is 32x64 and 32 high. Neither of those are a "standard" size. Right one is 64x64x64. The weird shape looks like is because of an abnormally high fov setting. 

I had my fov set to 100, do you want me to resize the boxes? 

Make whatever looks good to you. You don't see non-cube crates often in Quake but that doesn't make them wrong. I was just saying that the distortion was probably just a display artifact. It does look a little more skewed than I'm used to, what engine is that? 

 

looks like my map isn't working very well, I'm getting strange vis errors. you think I should start over? 

 

If you want me to keep at it, how am I supposed to fix all the vis errors?

Found out what was happening, but there's a bug when near the waterfall, I get this odd HOM bug. how do I fix it? 

You could always post some screenshots of the area and maybe a wireframe view of the area? 

I'm thinking about restarting my map. sorry for disappointing you guys. :(

You should make the map file available to one of the more experienced mappers here. I'm sure someone can tell you how to fix these problems. Maybe ask negke or necros, they are good at diagnosing technical problems. 

May I suggest to change the waterfall to something more in line with the red sky ? Bloodfall, or lavafall, with a river of hot blood/lava around the crates...

Would feel more "out of this world" !
