and that's all I'm gonna say about it. 

Texture of the rocks looks a bit flat indeed.
I'm more concerned about the broad space, as it is only a small part of what happens inside.

Strange the alignment crashes while changing the map from Radiant1.5 to Quark6.4.
I had to start again several times because all rockshapes were scrambled. 

but I do like the look fo the castle! 

 

but I have done a bit of work today...

Had to rework areas a few times, creating map 1 of the episode was easier but that's probably because I now have more experience with making something good with the base texture set. 

Something weird going on with textures in shot 2 though?
Anyways, looking forward to this! 

Maybe consider swapping the white brick for metal in shot 2? 

Shots have a very former Id-ish style: that is great ! 

Necros magic and Pixel chainsaws 

oh boy! 

That's quite skinny when compared to this sugar pumpkin 

That looks pretty good. 

 

Maybe I'd feel differently seeing it in game, but I think the chainsaw's base is too wide. It comes off as a 'fat sword' rather than a chainsaw. 

Rusty Rubicon Revenge 

Very nice. "Grumpy Acid" should be the map name too! 

I never though people could make custom maps for rubicon 2. well done! 

You can find the stuff you need right here.

Scroll down to instant satisfaction. 

 

Scroll down, there�s also the defs and wads for the mappers and modders... 

 

Who is that guy? 

Didn't know you were typing that.

Mappers tend to stick perpendicular to the grid on the x/y axis. It's easy... Quake textures tend to be nice and modular when working like that (also, faster vis). Base maps tend to use more angles usually, for some reason. Would be cool to see more maps where the rooms aren't boxes though, helps make things seem otherworldly, since boxes are like the constant in architecture.
Also, rotating entire rooms or buildings so the horizon is titled, can give player a feeling of disorientation/unbalances.
Takes bit more work in bsp engine since need to keep things on grid.

Just a basic assumption that isn't questioned often enough I think.
Doom does it more, because it's more 2D and have less options for variation besides just making the sectors irregular shaped.
