Wow, that looks very nice. Probably the best looking DP map I've seen, actually. Crisp and clean all around, with great texture selection.

Keep it up! :D

Make sure you rotate the textures on the top of your 45degree brick angles.

Hmm... better than lollipop trees, but brush-based trees are still "eww", especially without appropriate textures.

That's not really saying much, haha.

Palm trees you could actually pull off OK with some custom textures.  You'd need an appropriate bark texture and some palm fronds textures with an alpha channel.  You could then set the trans33+trans66+mist flags on the frond brushes. and make it look pretty convincing.  It would be kind of tedious to do, though, and would probably look better modeled.

The rest of the map looks nice, though -- just needs a few texture alignment tweaks on some of the stones.

The kids here are calling them propellers! They really like crouching on top of them.

Cool map, can't wait for it to be fully up, but is there a link somewhere here that I missed where you can look at the beta version?

If you didn't notice the title of the topic says very very beta so no you can not download it right now.

Nice map - I must be an old-school developer but in my days 'very very beta' was just called 'alpha'

Cheers,

i hope not, because the maps textures and base doesn't look too bad, the trees would look better if you took your time with them, but i like the map thus far, please don't have it be a u, all spam
