While watching the video, this is what I thought. "Those pillars are nice... They remind me of the pillars you find in Jedi Knight II and III. I think I'm going to post tha.... Hey! An exploding car! YAY"

[jgoodroad]

yeah, more to come about this map

[cz_squishy]

Hey! An exploding car! YAY

As I read that the APC exploded lol
Nice pillars btw

[jgoodroad]

besides the pillars, anyone have some comments as to the rest of the map?

The maps to blocky. (I know it's just dev textures) How did you do that car?

adding things every day, and about the APC I use a preset from hl2 called "apc_on_track" just go to entitys then hl2 presets and it should be the first one. however it is slightly more difficult then that!. the trigger commands differ, for example... if you want to start the vehicle then you have refer to the driver (it looks like a rollermine), but to EXPLODE the vehicle you must refer to the model (apc_1). that should save you a minute fumbling around the trigger outputs.

I hope you intend to change the light_enviroment or that you intend to light that place artificially.

Nice pillars and the car part is awesome. But whats with the nade in the second video?

There's not really anything to criticise yet. Keep up the work and pop back when you've gotten some serious detail done or plenty more brushwork - it's just a sunken path at the moment with a few odd pillars. If it's titled Underground, where the hell is it?

On that note, screenshots are better for direct criticals, they allow people to say "shot 3, add this, remove that, alter that texture."

It was left over from a failed trap attempt, and will later become a scripted sequence
plus it's cool
