@affine, Wow that does look good, keep going :)
I would recommend moving the light fixture higher so that players don't bump into it when going around the wooden platform. The lighting in the CZG honey map is strong shadow lights around the flame sconce's and light entities which are long range low value fill lights. The best thing to do is copy and paste a sconce and entities from his source map, it will have everything setup. To create the long range fill lights use wait=0.4 light=48 and remember to add colour values. (0.82 1.00 0.98) Thank you sock! I was wondering what the wait keys were for. A couple light setups I did in fact copy/paste because I was unsure, but now I'm eager to do some experimentation.
Jesus, you guys are machines.
I have barely got past what I already posted (mostly due to fucking long working hours) I should pick up the slack in the next few days though. So far make promise drip out of my screen.
I should probably buy a new one; it's starting to burn a hole in the desk. *Skacky: even better looking than the previous ones. I would stick a step to the floor where the hell_knight is standing, or a crate, to break a bit the ground.
FYI, I am using the exact same density setting as Honey except the hue is different. ;)
Or maybe I should use the same fog setting as Fatal Instinct from Quake 3? I started a map today. I'll have no time to finish it.

Mechtech, i like the shot, just make it a speedmap, whatever.. The only thing that is bugging me aesthetically is the 45 degree angle on the pipes, considering the curves elsewhere.
verging on the superfluous but if it was feedback you were looking for there it is. Looking forward to all of the maps, whether turtle- or speed- or something in between! @fith, there is plenty of time, the whole of next week and two weekend's worth of time to go yet! Closing date is really Monday morning.
@mechtech, lovely chain bridge! The beauty of the map jam is that you just need to create something with an exit trigger. It can be a single room or corridor that is up to you. Just stick an exit at the end of the map and create a bridge too far combat setup! :P @scampie, very tasty, you have even gone with some different fog! That gets me even more excited for this! Even though I am discouraged by the lack of Zer crates...
I am way too busy and might flake out but these shots are really making me want to make a submission. Would someone be willing to make me a HLwad so I can use my crappy WC 3.3 on my crappy computer to possibly maybe throw something together for the deadline? I can't get Jackhammer or Trenchbroom to work, and I've been unsuccesful in previous attempts to convert the textures to the HLwad format in the past (using RickyT23's method). In fact, if someone can hold my hand through that process that would be even better. shacky
Really nice work! Good lighting AND you took the time to do some decent composition set up. Impressive... is about just creating maps, they don't need to be textured masterpieces or complete adventures with multiple skill levels and encounter balance. They can be simple rooms, long corridors or complex environments, there is no restriction, no minimum or maximum amount of level you can submit. It could even feature no monsters!
There is only one rule
