Notes

This map is NOT designed for single player but for multiplayer with large teams, using a special mutator(Health & Ammo regeneration).
See for example: http://www.destinationunreal.com & http://hermskii.com/Forum/

I am sorry for the misunderstanding... perhaps I should have told you much earlier
But I can make the map suitable for offline if you wish

Says video is private. Might wanna fix that

Ah, I totally forgot. Yep I am still a newbie. Thanks for reporting it!
Should be allright now. Enjoy.

The video looks promising, especially the mine section.
There is one thing which kind of breaks the spell for me (it's personal preference of course) and that's the cilindrical tarydium crystals.There's a fine border between impression and realism and tarydium just doesn't seem right without the angles (the impression of a crystaline structure has gone). The needle-like structure is fine though (and conform with what nature produces).

Anyway, detail is high quality stuff and the whole does make me want to check out the rest of your work

Introduced myself a bit here + mapping gallery:

Temple part in progress:




I have a question.
What is a good 'ceiling' decoration / architexture for temple ceremonies like this? Have you a good idea?
Played Unreal1, Chizra's Temple once again, and could not find much architecture on the ceiling there.\
Building temples is not my strongest skill, you know. Crystalmine2 has HUGE temple, but the ceiling was nothing special.
Any good input for me?

Thanks in advance.

Big tiered ceiling with a hole so you can see the sky imo.

hm.... ok. Actually, that was my very first though too .
hehe

Update :

hmm, it seems you actually took my opinion into account
Looking much better now! (but ... that's my opinion, others may differ)

Haha thank you. The sreenshot is a bit dark, but in game everything looks awesome .
And yes, these crystals are much better for caves.
Progress so far: 85% till beta

Skip beta and move on to zeta

I wanted this 'factory' area / map for DM but it did not work out, so I will add this in CM3

looks nice very very boxy though

yh I know, perhaps this a little better:



This 'area / stage' is supposed to be one big crystal reactor, with a water cooled system.
