I have so far completed 3 maps, and they were all fy or aim, now I think I am ready to move on to a de. I am even drawing maps for this one, and planning. This level is going to have an industral like office on the top-level, and the downlevel will be a place filled with water and machines with steam. Top level is CT, bottom is T, T need to plant I bomb in either top or bottom level. I plan to have sounds, and the bottom level is going to scary, and I need some ideas or help. So, what makes a level scary? I dont mean cary as in horror but creepy. Oh, and do you like the name im gonna give the map aswell?

I am also going to make the level with NODRAW and only texture sides that are visible. Also I will tie func_detail to the detail brushes.

need suggestions thanx.

Looks not bad so far, although 3rd pic is too dark.

it looks like your using the light entity, not the light_spot entity

light_spot makes it look better for indoor house lights or computers/tvs casueing light.

A good combo is to use both, so that it looks like the lightsource really is the lightsource. Not required in all places/types of light... But generally a combination is best.

yeh i just realized that, some places were way to frikin dark.

btw those pics were usuing direct lighting, cause i have a leak cause im not done. so it doesnt look as good.
