You should probably try posting pictures if you want us to criticize your map.
on the last one theres supposed to be point_spotlights but im having trouble with them
Earth and Mars are way too close to the map.
I know, but i didnt make that skybox.if i can figure out how (in fact i bet its easier then it sounds) and maybe delete mars altogether
but i think i'd delete earth instead.
Not to bad, especially if it's one of your first maps.
One thing however, take you ground brush, go to the top view, and just the clip tool and cut it in half vertically, and horizontally through the center, and repeat with the new squares until your ground brushes are about 512x512 to 1024x1024 each.
This helps you make much smoother and more natural displacements.
Mars and Earth look too close.
The inside looks blocky.
The hills of snow look too pointy.
The grain of the wood is going the wrong way.

And why would they have taken planks of wood to the Moon anyway?
Ah, yes.

And why would there be a man made bottomless pit?

NODRAW on displacement surface. [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f180/BJK51/emotboingpn7.gif[/IMG]
Well my idea was that it was loooong abandoned place and the gap you see was a primary elevator that had fallen, and how the wood got there?... who cares?! i'll fix the grain direction. i need help with the fog, it doesn't show up against the sky, even when you set it ingame.

I knew i shouldn't have gotten it at walmart...

[editline]12:10PM[/editline]
never midn i didn't change the vmt file in my gmod folder.
error whiel trying to load map, something about bad surface extents
Pretty horrid displacement work you got there.
See this is what i mean people. This asshole didn't name one thing that i could do to make that landscape better, he is just saying it sucks and then he leaves, don't bother posting here again "Afnopo".
[highlight](User was banned for this post ("Flaming" - Terrenteller))[/highlight]
You could start by making only the top face of the brush a displacement instead of the whole damn thing.
Also, he didn't say it sucked, he said it was horrid, if you can't accept criticism go somewhere else.
Make the hill actually smooth instead of randomly sticking up out of the ground to cover the "door"
1)where on the hill or on the door
2)[url]http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/horrid[/url] [url]http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sucks[/url] for sucks go to verb- 10 and 11 same meanings just stated differently.
3)its not a door built inside a hill, the theme of this is an old abandoned outpost and thats snow that gathered on it over the years.
And let me rephrase, constructive criticism

Snow on the moon?
I suggest you do what the other people said and remake the entire skybox. It looks too unrealistic with the huge celestial bodies and such.
not our moon, "a" moon
sigh, everyone heres a my latest update, yeah there are alot of glitches i know, i have fixed most already: [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=93744[/url]

Well then your map sucks :downs:
Snow would pile up, not spike on top of things.
ive fixed that -.- just download the beta
wait... you mean on the hill or the door...
and i forgot to mention, its my first map.

Weren't you ever told to never release your first map?
Unfortunately you can no longer have a first map but if you could I would suggest something simpler, probably without displacements. Like a brick... or plain...
No i wasn't and i wouldn't care if i was.
and did you even dl the beta? thats the latest work ive done other than what i'm compiling right now. And yes, there are bugs. There are bugs with all maps. this is a pretty simple map.
[editline]10:54PM[/editline]
for those of you who were wondering about why wood was there

I'm scared to download it. :smithicide:

Where's the download anyway
If you're going to put an outpost on this moon you're going to want a garage for rovers and a landing lad for ships.
Might want to mix up the insides a little, pit metal supports and segment the walls, if you really want to go all out, have the walls bend so the hallway isn't square.
Shows on sci fi are perfect places to get references and ideas.
