Displacements are pretty basic, it needs a 3D skybox and the ground texture is pretty meh. [editline]08:22PM[/editline] I dunno what to say really. It isn't bad, it just need a lot of work.

well yea i would agree its just my first time

Those water ripples are way to small

Nice, but I reccommend you change your environmental lighting to something from here based on the skybox you're using; it looks boring right now. [url]http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Sky_List[/url]

Actually really good for a first, my first map was literally just a box, and I thought it was the best thing ever. But yeah, keep working on it, good maps come from lots of time [put into the map] and practice.

Usually use them as a reference that you tweak to your own liking.

Better than alot of first maps. Just keep working at it.

This is actually a pretty good first-ish map. With some touch ups I'm sure this would be great.

I found it funny that his first map almost looks as good as many 'professional' GMS maps.

^lol yea i find most of them really shitty..so im trying to do somthing about it

I started with a hollow rectangle of grass with a headcrab in there. :3: This isn't very bad for one of your first. The main thing that I think is bad is the water- the ripples are too small and numerous.

Other people will see the default water.
