The last 2 pictures are still being worked on, as the lighting still needs sorting becuase most of the detail car't be seen due to darkness in some areas

Also on the first picture you will notice there all some screenies <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo--> Still need to light them up using .rad files, If anyone can help me on how to light them properly with the seperate areas on the textures dedicated to different R G B properties that would be helpful.

ENjoy!

I'm no mapper, but I plan on making a map for NS soon. However, since I haven't actually done anything, I feel bad making criticisms of other people's work. But here goes anyways:

I really don't like the blue and red lightstrips in the last 2 pics. That may be just me, but those two bright colors together hurt my eyes. I would recommend changing the blue strips to red, since those rooms seem to have a hint of red to them anyways.

That was my $0.02

I agree with f3rret, but I think you could do without the light strips all together. They look good in the halls, but in these last 2 they seem pretty harsh.

I think you could keep the lights, but perhaps modify the textures so the lights are thinner and have a bit of detail to them. (Most obvious suggestion is faint verticle 'scanlines' on them to simulate a ridged plastic covering.)

Otherwise, its looking real good!

I whipped up a few light textures you could use (i was bored)

and this:

and finally, red!

I think black's textures would look great in the last 2 pics -- but change a thing in the first two, I love em!

hmm, these textures are public domain, anyone can use them w/o permission or even mentioning me anywhere (though you can if you want =P)

Nay

thanks for those strips i`ll use them well <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->
