Great textures and some very nice architechture thats what this map is all about so your statement "It's called textures m8" is only half-true <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The architechture can make or break a map just like textures. And a great map uses the best of both, like ns_forsaken in this case.
I do agree that some combat maps need better layout/architecture. Some of them look like *curseword* "CS" with NS textures (Not all of them btw, and dont flame for not being a Combat fan <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

Or not, i have a piece of maths coursework to hand in tommorow and i've done about 1/4 of it :S Just having a little break so my mind doesn't explode under stress. When i get the canner working again i'll route around and upload some sketches of rooms and overviews.
mouseh speaks the truth. though i think it's kind of refreshing to see textures used differently. so while i'd normally say it should be changed, leave it.

I have no real problem with that particular texture being used as a floor texture. It's really just the way it's used. Rotate it 90 IMO, so the black grate thingie on the texture is in the middle.

You should change that floor texture IMO.
Nice work otherwise.
