Sorry Metl 
But that is just too good to be true. 
Necros.. 
..that ayleid jpg really nice!

The lightning fits perfectly.. How did u obtain that soft greenish ? did u set colored light by aguirre/mh in worldspawn? 
 
no, but all point lights use this setting for colour: 0.725490 1.000000 0.968627

so far i haven't deviated from this. infact, i've recoloured the flames in that hexen2 latern blue to preserve it. 
Really? 
I just shit my pants.

Thank you, Metl! :) 
O RLY????????????

Necros 
Dead link. I think you messed your tags up or something. Copying it manually doesnt work for me either. Says necros.quaddicted.com/.......</span> 
Mr. Richard

Sorry I Meant Spy 
Duh..... 
R2 
shot 6 looks spaffworthy 
 
are they really new? at first i thought it was a joke but when i checked, i couldn't remember what the old shots looked like. o.o

anyway, all 6 look great although i'm not really holding my breath for a release. ;) 
 
necros: for the record, the first two shots are old, the last four are new.

nitin: january is the plan. 
GOING TO QUOTE YOU ON THAT 
Nah, but definitely looking forward to it. 
 
Gimme Gimme Gimme 
 
 
So I wasn't planning on posting anything from my map until it was near completion, but I feel like I'm gonna drive myself insane soon... thing is, I'm never really satisfied with areas I work on. I always think I have to add more and more details, even though they might look fine. I've come to a halt so many times already because of this, I just can't stick with something, and progress is veeery slow as a result. Anyway, what I want to know from you all, is if these following shots look ok to you??

This is the starting area, I didn't want to make this overly detailed seeing as the player will never return here anyway:

A minor hallway, I've got this feeling that the walls are too bland/flat, true or not?

On the other hand, I try to give more detail to more "major" areas or areas that will be revisited, such as this "hub" that connects a few areas:

And yes, it's fullbright. I haven't gotten to the lighting stage yet, I'm still only working on architecture and have a ton of stuff left, that's why I need to know if these areas look fine so I won't drive myself crazy with detailing every little nook and cranny!

Help me out here guys! 
Hmmm.. 
..indoor corridors are not my cup of tea but still your pics look pretty fair and competently done. 
Uh 
B:I think that looks pretty good! I guess you might be able to spruce up the ceiling in the corridors if you wanted to, but imo it looks pretty good.

ZQF: I want to play that.

Metl: my pants are slightly tighter. 
 
Just some quick links to the full pics ...

I think it's shaping up quite nicely, as for blandness it doesn't look too bland but not as detailed as some maps are nowadays. Don't let that discourage you though, it really does look very tasty. 
 
i think those shots are absolutely fine.
as for lower detailed areas like hallways, don't forget you can use lighting to your advantage.
shroud boring areas in shadows but use spotlights to keep the floor and eye-level walls illuminated.
you can also use trim more aggressively. you're already doing that on the walls, but you can trim along the floors too. idbase and ikbase have excellent trim textures. 
 
oh my oh my

2010 will be a awesome Quake year :)

even in fullbright they look awesome... nice ceelings!

I really need to start making something :( since tdl.bsp I made so many few brushes :( one speedmap and a map that I start that have like 50 brushes...
