The light podiums sticking out of the floor look a bit fat imo, they need a diet of approximately 16 units!
Very nice overall, lighting is a bit flat in some areas for my taste though. What does the map look like in standard gl / fitz? :D http://www.quaketastic.com/upload/files/screen_shots/smablersgif.gif
Daz - 32x32 base is pretty fat I know, but Im on a strict diet of marksurfaces here and I dont think I can afford it.... you can jump on top of them all though :D my only complaint is that the 64x32 metal block texture is overused and boring.
also, i don't know if this is intentional or not, but all that bloom makes the map look very damp/humid and sweltering. on a tangent, it would be nice to see games use bloom for specific effects instead of just globally applying it to the entire game. a level taking place in a sunny but hot swamp would make good use of bloom. Not boring at all Ricky! Change nothing! (OK, rotate the crates in that one screenshot).
Yummy. I'm just messin' hehe!
Thats Rygels 2.7Mb pack there as well guys. I cant put realtime lights on though. It kills the framerate completely. And I have to type some weird crap in because Darkplaces lights appear extremely bright in realtime mode with my method of lighting. And I get about 8 fps. But hey - I normally use FitzQuake 0.80 especially to play with. And I have textured the map using a lot of standard Quake textures, but there are plenty of non-standard ones too so as you can see from the shots it looks weird like that anyway because of the contrast between the really low-rez ones and the eXtremely high-rez ones. Anyway it runs in Winquake, Darkplaces, Fitz, GlQuake, Tomaz, QMB, Joequake, Qrack, etc etc etc... Thanks for the tips. Is a problem. If you apply it on a per-shader basis then it looks great, but immolates the graphics card.
Applying it over the entire game, that is, directly from the back buffer is MUCH cheaper, which is why lots of modern games have that sweaty look. They want bloom but don't want make the graphic concessions necessary to have it, so instead they have to plaster it all over. I agree with what necros said, that texture patterns rather ugly. Also there are very dominant (and ugly) rivets everywhere (that might be less flamboyant with the original textures though).
The rest looks very promising! Some older than Earth itself.

Nice lighting, brushword etc, er - I never tried mapping for Doom 3 yet, so I can give any other real input except for I hope the gameplay is as good as the visuals! I thought I saw Abe coming round the corner of Oddworld,
trying to save Friction from Burgerworld. My model editor program is moving right along, fully supporting frame and skin groups (mega thanks to Preach, as always, for info freely shared).
