Umm...those enemies are from Simpsons Doom, right?

It'd be nice if we could access the pictures without being logged into Facebook.

There are plenty of image hosts that you could upload to (such as imageshack, tinypic, imgur, etc.) so that we can all actually see them.

I'm posting this reply to say a few things about these screenshots, and I'm going to say them as nicely as possible.

Having seen them, StiCat, I must point out that there is a "take screenshot" key in your source port. By default, it's set to the "Print Screen" key, which is sometimes also labeled "SysRq" (hence its label in the config. menu.) Please use this to take any future screenshots you intend to post here, instead of a camera.

Also, for everyone else's sake, please do not use an external graphics mod when working on your level or taking screenshots, other than the Community Chest 4 texture WAD. Unless they're familiar with the particular mod you're using (especially Simpsons Doom, as seen here,) no one will be able to tell which enemies the new sprites are supposed to represent. There's also the chance, if it directly replaces textures or flats (as Simpsons Doom also does,) that what you see as coherent texturing will come off to testers as a complete mess. Just don't do it, okay?

Same thing applies. The default screenshot key is "Print Screen" / "SysRq."

Those new shots look nearly all the same. If they all from different areas you should try making each area look more unique.

The screenshots remind me of one of the secrets from MAP 09: The Pit.

I can see that the rooms are small, but it adds a nice challenge and gameplay. On the other hand, a somewhat larger room with a few strong(er) baddies such as: Barons or Arachnotrons can make a (small) challenge which adds variety and gives a fresh look.

Texturing seems to be a combination of Gray 'n' Silver (which is not a problem) but i must agree with ProcessingControl here, almost all screens resemble each other except the Red Skull room.
you can spice up some areas with the usage of the CC4-tex or make your own texture to fit the style you want.

Other than that it looks pretty neat, hope to see more soon.

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but this map looks really ugly. The texture combinations look random and there is no constant theme. The third to last shot alone shows a number of major errors (The switch texture being used on one big wall, SS Nazis for no reason, key textures being used on big walls, etc...). I suggest you play some popular WADs and see what makes them look good.

I have to agree with Processingcontrol. If TGH will allow, I don't mind to put your map into CC4 - but this is so weak and simple. And sadly, definitely not good.

Hmm... Sorry man, I think that's not good enough for CC4, TGH won't accept that. There are lots of empty rooms and undetailed. Your map is very simple. You have to get better in mapping for entering such a project.

Keep practicing and you'll get better ;)

I really don't think processingcontrol sounded like a jerk at all. You should really start practising at making your maps better. Check out some other maps that you think look good and let your inspiration flow. From looking at your screenshots, it looks like you just got the basics down (hardly even that) and now want to participate in a big community project. It takes time to become a good mapper and I now you will get there sometime if you just practise and map alot in your free time and listen to the feedback you receive.

I don't know if you've released any maps before, but CC isn't really the arena for beginners IMO. Now go practise.

Here is some feedback:

#2- The textures aren't fit at all, change the fire blue texture and also I suggest lowering the ceiling a bit. The monster placement here is kind of bad.

#3- Can't see behind the door. But I see that you used blue lights as door tracks, nah there is better.

#4- If you're going to make a computer textured tunnel then make sure there are no cut textures. BTW the dark sector is not good IMO.

#5- Same as 4.

#7- Big, empty, bad monster placement (and especially hard as you put Hell Knights). Also that risen floor is dark, same as 5 and 4.

#12- The floor/ceiling and wall textures, if same, they're totally ugly, especially big empty.

#13- Aahh..?

#14- The walls at the side will disappear if you get behind them. And they're flat!

#15- Nazis put in modern projects (normal maps) is weird. Also the doors are ugly, either replace them with bars, or a normal door with the key textures aside. And yeah the giant switch that contains small switches is terrible, if you press a button would all the buttons be pressed?

I just randomly decided to look at this thread, and clicked on one of your links and saw this.

Don't take this the wrong way, but a screenshot that shows off 2 mere linedefs and a floor is probably the worst screenshot you could take of your level. While I guess it's good that you're showing bits and pieces of everything, this screenshot in particular doesn't show people anything.

As for your map as a whole, others in this thread have pointed out that you likely have a long ways to go before most people will be satisfied with the map. If I had to make a reasonable assumption, I'd say that you're somewhat new to mapping, and there's nothing wrong with that, but this is a high caliber project where players are going to expect quality. Again, don't take offense, but you might have to sit this one out and practice some more.
