"umm....its a ship?" < title so far.

suggest names. comment, rant, rave. whatever.

Also, I haven't touched this for 4 months, first level BTW. I think I'm gonna replace the hallway texture. Also tell me any other textures you don't like.

And, the theme I'm going for is comfy starship. so yeh. k.

[edit: Shot six has the lights off. lightswitch turns it back on]

[edit 2: Think the mexican tiles are ugly? tell me. one of my friends think they are.]

[edit 3: Also, I'm NOT picking this level back up inless people think I should. I think its "meh" and I'm only willing to pick it back up if people like it]

Those ceilings look too low to me.
90% of those textures need to be changed, they are just really really ugly.

It needs more of a ship feel IMO. Like steel struts holding things together. Some of the textures aren't too bad, but many don't suggest a ship too much. That is all.

WHERES THE CHEESE?!

Anyways, it looks neat, but I'd say it's not very ship-ey. It appears more like a house than a high tech space vehicle.

I'd recommend adding air vents, also. And Air locks in case of decompression. X_x

Definately doesn't look like a ship - the wooden desk, lamps and lightswitches definately aren't what one would expect from a futuristic spacecraft.

It does look good though, just not perhaps for what you want it for.

I think you could pull off calling it an underground home or something like that. It looks great, but not ship-ey.

I don't want it to look like a house, nor a METAL SHIP THAT LOOKS COMPLETLY UNCOMFORTABLE.

Also, Two more things. As I edited in the first post but everyone ignored, Should I continue this project? and note I say. First level. I should've said my first level from scratch

Well, thats not true. ITs my second if you count that silly SP level I use all the time to test mods before I decide whether I should keep them or not. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

My other two levels are That retextured K-72 hm....Didin't I rellease another? I can't remmber. Oh well.

Reminds me of Deus Ex. You should try making a single player campaign of that. I started a similar project but worked on ww2 mod instead.

What I don't like is the yellow-brownish tile texture and the wood texture.

What I do like is everything else!
oh except for the lighting, it needs more contrast, darker in the corners and such.

Did you take *all* the textures from the Sith Mercenaries HQ level? And did you make that laptop 3DO?
It looks good, I would love to play it. Finish it up.

No, I got All of my textures and most of my 3dos from DOTRHQ, Saves time.

what's with all the bumping?
i don't think it looks too much like a ship.
great architecture. most of the textures are silly. keep going on it. i think either change the textures and some of the other things to make it more ship-like, or don't make it a ship.

I have to agree with everyone. Your textures are too varied, and it looks more like a house than a ship. Maybe some simple windows looking out into space eould help this.

Think about the original Star Trek. They didn't have windows looking out to space, so it might have well just big a really big house (it was in fact a set... they didn't have enough money to consider putting windows to space everywhere [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]). But I think the constant color scheme, along with the gray and the little touches to the rooms which suggested that it was a spacecraft (don't ask me for examples, I'm too tired to think... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]), made it look like a spacecraft.

Anyways, I suggest you work more of the blue in your first pic into the rest of it, and turn SOME of the warm textures into cold spaceship textures. That way it looks like it's a spaceship that the occupants tried to make feel like home. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Unneeded thread bumpage = bad.

People have given you suggestions on how to make it better. Work on it some more, using said suggestions, and then post new screens. Don't just keep bumping the same thread over and over and over trying to get more opinions off the same material, because after awhile (AKA, now) you'll just keep getting the same advice recycled.

I would suggest finding some semi-original textures, though. As others have said, it doesn't look that much like a ship, and the textures just aren't all that.. good.. there are some exceptions, but alot of it could benefit from being retextured.

And, yeah, windows = good.
