Try using triangles to make your cliffs and maybe scale your textures up a bit.

seriously, even for a first map its bad. its just like 10 brushes eh? +5 brushes for the sky.
but at least you learned how to compile a map which is more then most ppl can do rofl.
anyways, someone once said "never release your first map" and thats a good decision in most cases.

[EDIT]
well, you leaned the basics and now you should try to learn how to use triangles instead of blocks, in the mega thread stickie should be a tutorial link about that ;) triangles = good, blocks = ev0l

Wow o_O that is kinda bad, but keep working @ it -- Try learning vertex manipulation and good mapping techniques and you should be fine, but damn, why'd you release this? x.x

I didn't release my first map until like 5 versions afterwards.

The least thing you could do is compare it with other maps, and see if it's worthy a release, and to be honest, your map is not that worthy, keep working on your skills though. It took me a fine long time, to master all the basics.

Heh, "don't release your first map" is good advice, atleast not until you've compared it with a few others. Keep working on it, atleast you've learned how to compile a map, that sure took me awhile. :rolleyes:

its not bad, and it is not to good, tis ok for your first, vertex mulip is pretty hard to learn at first (but i never new wot to use untill mr satan helped me with my first map :p and then cold steel(if i remember correctly) told me about triangle brushes,

but any way, you will get better and better as u try harder, good job, the map looks plain but if u spice it up a bit, it will look killa ^_^

Too simple. The architecture... I mean where is it? Approve on it with vertex scaling or clipping.

Even though my map may be good in your opinion, that still does not give you the right to critisize someone like that. Super bolt deserves respect for atleast trying.

Hmmmmm. *******.....check. Mod present......check. Yep, warning time. Rickler, warning for your pointless flame. People have a right to show off what they've done even if it's simple. Nobody's good at mapping when they first start, so why don't you just chill, ok?
