What I don't understand is why you used spammy 1x1x5 bricks, and when you said something about it, you said it was to keep the brick count low.

Care to explain?

Cause the lower the brick count the less polygons the game has to draw which in turn leads to a better frame rate. And when your making a DM map you want it to run as smooth as possible.

Really nice. I think you'd be a wonderful map maker for FPS games. Although one thing bothers me. Why arent there any fires/anything burning etc.

Obviously. But why did you use 1x1x5 bricks, when you said you were keeping it spam free? Cause 1x1x5 bricks are a classic spammy brick. Why not use longer wall bricks?

Detail.

Ethan · August 05, 2008, 05:11:18 AM

He used them for the walls. That's barely detail.

Have you seen old houses, theres a reason why they are divided with brown 1x1x5 bricks.

Wall patterns are detail.

Looks like Tristram in Diablo 2.

Ladios · August 05, 2008, 09:19:00 AM

Great. The detail is awsome. I've never seen you in game or on the forums. 9/10

There has been a misunderstanding on my part. What I ment to say is I used alot of 1x5 bricks to keep the brick count down, not just 1x1x5 but all the 1x5 bricks. I hope this clears up some the confusion and if not just download the map and check it out.
