Why is there a lava sea though? Maybe put a standard water there with a trigger_hurt - so you don't have to map the ocean, that is.

Reminds me of the Painkiller docks level. 

Can you really get in it, or is it just solid?
Good design, a little industrial. 

upscale and rotate so repetition isn't as obvious. 

you could make a new lava texture that's say 256x256 (or use the original one and modify it in a way to make it look good) and then stretch that new texture by 2x.

this'll break compatibility with glquake (i think? or was it software quake/winquake?) as the texture will show up wierd but works in FQ.

i just figure since the lava takes such a prominent place, it would be worth a new texture or something. :) 

I like the lava sea, it says Quake fucked-up-ness to me. 

It was just my first impression that I asked about it, from a couple of screenshots as well. It looks a bit repetative and cartoon next to the real style architecture - to me.

But rudl, do what you like - I didn't mean to dictate or dissuade you. 

If you were hanging on my words ;P

@Madfox At the moment it's solid, but It's big enough to make rooms inside it

@ijed No you did not dictate or dissude me.

This time I scaled the lava *4 and it does not look too good. It makes the ship look that small, though its more than 2000 Units long;)

in reality trusses consist of triangles. If it's squares, it just forms a giant parallelogram that is not a stiff structure. 

and it looks a lot better than earlier times. :)

If anyone can tell me why the nifty looking floor keeps giving me "healing point" error messages in QBSP and whether I'll be able to fullvis with them unfixed....... I'd be grateful :/ 

Healing point are just warnings, and can be fixed as described in aguirRe's document:

http://user.tninet.se/%7Exir870k/tooltips.txt

AFAIK, even if you are not able to solve it, it should not prevent you to fullvis your map.
As example, in SRC, I had around 10 of them (for a ladder, using clipping brushes based on 0.1 grid size), and I was able to build the map without hving any leaks, HOMs, etc...

Nevertheless, I agree it is better to have a warning-clean map... ;) 

that looks quite good. 

I like unusual color combination these days. ;)

Healing point warnings do not influence VIS at all. They usually come from messy brushwork (even from seemingly okay brushwork if QBSP has a bad day). In most cases you can ignore them - sometimes they go along with portal errors (invisible faces/HOMs) however.
