ok this is just wierd it seems this map was made by 2 different people some parts seem actualy decent while others seem like crap i realy like how marine start looks and i also like this pic gives a nice feel that something went terribly wrong in the base <img src='http://swooh.com/peon/tincan/ns_platzangst_b040009.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' />
But jebus... that HORRIBLE texture scaling! God! God! *bangs head on desk* GOD! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Other then neat touches, it needs some serious work. Lights are just put in spots it NEEDS lights, with no light_spot in sight, stretched out textures, and no creative work. It just feels like a box to me.
You guys could atleast be motivated enough to ask him for pictures instead of just coming up with slogans and phrases for the future, although they are catchy <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The 2nd one is very nice indeed. I love the ceiling architecture/texturing. It reminds me of bast in some way lol. If you had devoted yourself to the whole map like in that one room.. well then I'd download it only for it's looks. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> Lighting is good, but the readyroom could be a little more personal, since it gives players the first impression of your map.

the map lacks any atmoshpere and feels like it's the same place all around, except in certain places. I agree with most people, you need more light work, definetly play around with different textures etc. I mean marine spawn looks neat, but the rest is kind of bland.

After all, the purpose of this thread is to give feedback on the map, not inflate your Internet Ego, which, from here, you seem to be doing.
On the subject of the map: It seems architecturally reasonably sound in most places, but what really makes this map lose spice in my opinon is the lighting; it's largely bland and uniform throughout. Why not try adding in some light_spots, subtle hilighting and using env_gamma to ramp the contrast up? (Unless you have used env_gamma and Recoup didn't gamma correct the shots either. Frankly, I wouldn't be suprised.)
No, people complained about how we should not download it so I gave them something more pleasing to look at. If you want to go see developments its on my thread. That was just an eye candy shot. If I wanted to promote it I would have an entire 3 paragraphs writen on how far Im on it and how I am doing on it, but I didnt. Just a simple picture. And as for decompressing the pictures, what, would you rather have them at a whopping 400 KB a picture? I think not. In fact, 35 KB is just enough, and it looks exactly the way I saw it in-game. Next time you use photoshop and come up with a better way to host images and not take up the whole damn webspace then you tell me, because I think I know what I am doing and you sit there and contineusouly b!tch.
Secondly, I said texture scaling was god awful, the lighting effects didnt have any light_spot and were just convieniently placed light texture with standard lighting. I also said. The rooms dont have any creative touches: just a boxed room with 4 textures to act as 2 walls, a ceiling and a floor. Some rooms may have some changes in them like Marine Start and that room with steam, but thats it. The rest of it is unimaginative and uncreative, so you sir, can shut the hell up because I payed my 2 cents and hosted the pictures on my webspace because no one else would put up screenies. <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo--> Sure, I would love recognition because for the last 2 pages all everyone did was spend time coming up with rymes for why NOT to download it instead of actually looking at it, so when I actually do something and put up pictures then of course I ask for a thank you.

You're missing the point here that you posted these pictures, being unconstructively critical about them in the first place, and then afterwards posted a picture of your own map as if to alleviate the supposed disgust welling up in the rest of us. If you don't think that's downright rude, then you obviously don't have much in the way of social skills. And I don't care what you say, it's obviously a shameless plug of your own skills, regardless of how much detail you went into.

The fact that you took screenshots and hosted them is not what irks me. I think it was quite kind of you to do that. What I take issue with is the fact that you had to dress it up in basically what I've been through. It's like picking someone up after they've had a fall and then kicking them in the back.

I have my own webspace and I quite frequently manually convert and upload my own images, and I've also done this for several people in the past, and would be more than happy to do the same for people in the future if they asked nicely enough and had no alternative. Plus, the fact that you hosted them is hardly an issue, as you could just as easily have attatched the images to the forums themselves (which, for some unfathomable reason, you seem to have done with your own image instead of hosting it alongside the others).

As if that has any <i>real</i> disadvantages. Anyway, as I said, PM me if you have anything more to say on the subject. I don't want this guy's thread to go off topic.
I'm having trouble building in alot of places,marine start: I can't build a tf behind cc,phase gate,turrets etc.
I had to build the phase gate in the hallway.Is there anyway ya can make the marine start bigger or anything? The problem I am getting in ALOT of areas like the marine start is that the buildings I'm trying to build are glowing red.
Sometimes I almost have to leave the minimap to like where an inch of map is showing to build stuff.
Also is there anyway ya can add a ladder to the "Omega" area? I think it's under a grate where ya drop straight down but can't get up but skulks can, or did u intend it being this way?

It looks like the map may end up pitch black on some monitors, and just too damn dark on most. You really need to go over the lighting. Who knows, it could even make the map look more interesting as well.
Ok thanx a lot for the feedback. The first page of this thread made me laugh so hard... I loved it ! I didnt expect that much feedback. In fact I dindt think any1 was gonna look at it at all. Thats great!
Hey, Recoup! I don't have a problem with your choiceofwords (especially because you're right), I will look at your map, and I appreciate you posting your opinion and images.
Now I will take a few days, try fixing the adressed issues, and publish again. Without the great response in this forum I was ready to consider it finished regardless of the lacks. This map was never intended to be the most beautiful. The features (like having no ladder in the Omega shaft or the insane Double Gate switch) are more important so I was hoping someone would actually playtest it. There's a chance that PLatzangst will be hosted on WurstSelection for testing, keep an eye on it

Maybe he wanted to keep r_speeds super low.
Anyways, some nice architecture (sp), some bad textures, some bland lighting, overall:
Nice but could use some touch-ups.
Like the other guy said, some places are really nice, Like the sewer part, and the crashed railing, some other parts are really bland.
Keep at it.
@ screenies yeh they look kind of repetive exept the <b>2nd</b> and <b>4th</b> one Recoup took.

By the way... I seem to be unable to post images here. The editor asks me for a URL which I don't have.
+++++++++++++++++++++
Ok thanx a lot for the feedback. The first page of this thread made me laugh so hard... I loved it !
I didnt expect that much feedback. In fact I dindt think any1 was gonna look at it at all. Thats great!
Hey, Recoup! I don't have a problem with your choiceofwords (especially because you're right), I will look at your map, and I appreciate you posting your opinion and images.
Now I will take a few days, try fixing the adressed issues, and publish again.
Without the great response in this forum I was ready to consider it finished regardless of the lacks. This map was never intended to be the most beautiful. The features (like having no ladder in the Omega shaft or the insane Double Gate switch) are more important so I was hoping someone would actually playtest it.
There's a chance that PLatzangst will be hosted on WurstSelection for testing, keep an eye on it <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->

As should everyone else, as Insane points out.
Last chance to add critics like "Not enough RTs!" or "Don't dare publishing again or posting another message because we will flame your **** to hell!!!!!"
Ah you know what I mean. I fixed all the bad textures, enhanced the lighting, added more details to make it look less boxy. And I may, JUST MAY, add a few screenies. But be assured that they will be compressed to thumbnail size.
Just kidding, I could never do that.
Well LOOk what I just found !
These are old though, I could have linked you there all along (Oops! See I never read this forum between my first and second post.)
