A big improvement over that other map you made, its not perfect but it does look like something that is much closer to accpetable.

The problems that i can see are:

there is no vis, stop releasing maps without it.

the lighting is poor in the extreme; it is very very bland due to this, and coupled with the atcs textures it looks even worse, it is just the same brightness over pretty much everything, i had trouble finding my way around with /r_lightmap 1.

Heh, I was just thinking, it feels like I've spent my entire adult life staring at those Quake2 panel / metal textures, in one game / mod or another.

Hydra, it'd increase the likelihood of people testing by an order of magnitude if you ensured all textures are included, and have the courtesy to vis it before release - otherwise no one can give any useful feedback on r-speeds, and you won't have any data to drive vis-hint brush placement. That said, the lack of curves and modest scale means you might get away with (almost) no hint brushes.

I downloaded the file and put it in my base folder, but the map doesn't show up in the Tremulous game...
