YOUR SIG PICTURE DOESN'T WORK.
Love the architecture in it, wonder what the rest looks like. Any chance of a couple hive shots?

No chance actually.
I am trying something really different with them and I don't want to ruin the surprise. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
if that mainframe shot is anything to go by sensory chambers will own the map
keep up teh good work!

Lighting is very cool, the indirect stuff is the best part of it. 2/3 is cool... as well as 3/3. So is 1/3 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Quite a few completely original corridor styles you have there... Each one must've taken a fair bit of time I imagine...
it may work out in playtests though.
i also feel that the constrast between the lighting colours is a bit too much. it goes from white to red, or blue or what-have-you, with very little transition. perhaps if the secondary colour (white, blue/white etc.) had a slight tint it may look a little more realistic. as much as contrasty light looks exciting, it is very rare in reality that you have a coloured light source that is completely independent from others around it.
great brushwork, very creative. i'm eager to see more. <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->
Holy ns2.wad batman.
I hope the darkness in the first shot is due to jpg compression, we don't need another map like that early build of hydro with the deleted lighing so it would compile ^^.

It has the advantage of the lugheads not knowing which support they're hiding behind. but they'll be well lit, and unable to use the roof too move around.

I decided early on that struts would play a large part in Attrition. So I'm going to try and avoid changing them too much. hopefully I won't have to.

Yeah, there is more than just hallways in Attrition.

Aye, I wasn't too fond of that ceiling, so I dimmed it a bit. of course the whole room is nigh pitch black now. but you get that <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> .
