[DODS] dod_prohibition

[ryalho]

dod_prohibition is a map that takes place during the 20's and 30's. The map follows a strict structure such as one as dod_flash. These two maps though will have nothing in common.

Note, the bridge in picture 5 is ugly, if someone can find a better model for this type of bridge, it would be greatly appreciated.

Please enjoy.

The edges look really hard and boxy. I dont like how the geometry flows from building to building but thats just me. Im a sucker for architecture.

Looks good overall though.

Overall it look alright, but that building in pic 4 looks really ugly, just doesn't go with the rest of the map

thanks for the input, I've had a day on this, I haven't really set anything in stone.

The people of that town sure do love doors, that or itty bitty houses.

Also a simple thing to throw off some of the blocky flow would be to raise one side of the street up about 10 units, have a bit of a slope.

looks like a good start, but you are missing one major thing...
ROOFS!!!

add some normal pointy roofs to those square buildings and the difference will be huge. You could add them to the 3d skybox if you wish, though that might be out of your reach at the moment. Also, don't make your texures do all the work, add some brush details to those buildings. Things like balconies, porches, stairs, and structal supports go a long way toward pulling the player into your map.

DODs are also notoriously difficult to make realisitic, probably only topped by Insurgency in the source MP map making circles. The trouble is that your aiming for realism, where CSS and TF2 are much easier to pass off since the games aren't as serious.

It's a good start, but i'd give it another 5-6 hours of detailing and you'll have something that looks much better.
