While it is an interesting experiment, I doubt that the final product will be rewarding in any way. It will look like Minecraft with texture mods if you keep on making a cave. As I said, a temple or a facility out of cubes would be challanging as well but in the end it will look more natural - and satisfying.

However, if your cave ended up nice, I'd like to have a look at it ;)

Currently paused working on Dm-spacemall, because i am working on Dm-northpole. It is going to be large map of the elfs houses, Santa's house, the northpole church, elf toy building school, toy storage, elf parking lots, a hotel, and elf restaurants. Currently its 10% done. The level mostly consists of Cgtextures.com medieval and neoclassical building textures. 99% of the buildings are either 512x1024 or a 1024x1024 texture. I also used alot of AngelHearts textures. Im also using alot of my SpaceMall decos throughout the northpole. Im also making it that you can enter 9 out of 10 buildings that you see. I have made a video with my soothing voice :mrgreen: figured i would kill 2 birds with 1 stone, i wanted to show progress and also test out bandicams quality at the same time.

Thats a good start but please do not let the player touch the skybox (fakebackdrop faces). High cliffs are missing.

It's better than the other maps, BUT:
- the skybox texture isn't right, the view is from above (in the air) while you aren't looking from above to it (but standing on earth).
- the christmas trees/deco's aren't nice to look at, because they have white outlines (it isn't masked nicely)
- the map just ends into nowhere on the edges (where you see the fake backdrop/skybox), make some terrain/mountains on the edge, so it doesn't look like the end of the world (so players think there's something behind, but they can't see/reach).
- windows where you can walk through don't make sense, make them break when you walk through them or make a window that is openend or something.

map is only 10% done, i believe i may have showed my work a bit too early. I intend on using every single building texture in my xmas texture pack and i have only used 10% of the building textures so far, so alot of work is still needed. Dozens of buildings still need to be added- i still havent made the toy storage building or santas house etc.
