i replaced the old hive with this one...

therealwire · September 2002

another hive...

Windelkron · September 2002

funky, looks like some nice flanking strats could work there <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

leaving that hive...

therealwire · September 2002

a resource node (its back there, the shot just didn't catch any particles)

therealwire · September 2002

one last hive- in the bottom left is a lift, and it either blocks off the top entrance or the bottom, depending on what state its in. there is a third entrance wich is always available of course:)

before some pipes are welded...

therealwire · September 2002

...and after. this is the last shot. fire away.
ps. it looks like when i adjusted the levels in the last shot it jacked up that red a bit too much. trust me, it doesn't suck that bad.

Slycaster · September 2002

Wow, amazing, looks really really cool, and i LOVE that hallway idea.

RhoadsToNowhere · September 2002

That looks cool. I definitely like the suspended, curving hallway. Your second shot is way too bare, and your fourth shot is kinda monochromatic, but otherwise I like it.

Vyvn · September 2002

I like how you have very few straight vertical walls. I especially like the third pic, just cause it's so twisty and funky <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>. You're right, the "before" pic looks too, well, red, and the ceiling looks awfully dark, but I suppose this gives an incentive to actually weld the thing. Nice.

TRANCEBOY · September 2002

Nice map!

Black_Wolf · September 2002

a lot of your shots seem to be lacking colour, maybe some accent lights of another colour would work well, and you infestation, i think, needs to be more than just using an infested texture for the ground and walls . . . maybe a bit gloomier atmosphere for the hives would work well.

your general architecture is looking good though.

ChromeAngel · September 2002

The architecture looks good, really very spacy. The lighting in those hive rooms could do with being much more contrasting, they look very washed out at the momment.

From my expierence as a PT I don't think the weld to change the lighting would get used.

JediYoshi · September 2002

Hmm, I only see one thing a bit weird. It's just that it doesn't seem the red shecem room doesn't seem like ti matches with the rest of your rooms. But tother than that, it looks teh pwn.

infi · September 2002

sweet architecture you got there! <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Imperial_Syndicate · September 2002

The last shot looks really great, it's my favorite one! I think that perhaps you could make the ceilings in the other rooms a little less flat maybe? Try adding some cross beams, or skylights (might not work with your theme, I'm not sure). Just something to make the ceiling more interesting. Other than that, I really like them!

doctopepa · September 2002

Very advanced architecture in the 3rd pic. if you had the right textures there it would ROCK.

Battousaix · September 2002

I DOUBLE WHAT DOCTOPEPA SAYED, THAT HALLWAY IS ONE OF THE BEST IDEAS I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!

Lord_Frodo · September 2002

well maybe you think there wouldn't be much incentive, but I know one thing for sure... if an alien could POSSIBLY be in that dark red hallway there ain't no freakin' way I'm going down it until those pipes are welded =)

yesukai · September 2002

I love the second pic, except the texturing. The infestation reapeats too much. There are few hive shots I actually like for this reason. Other then that... I love architexture, those beams going out at angles really look awsome. The hallway is cool, but heres an idea:
The pt said most likely it wouldnt get welded... so add an extra insentive, remove the red lights. <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Pitch black till you weld. Imagine the terror.

gutterclutch · September 2002

Much love for the red hallway. I like your map a lot - it's not cramped, yet it retains the desperate CQ NS atmosphere
