Liquedv2, yew need to branch out a little on your thinking. I'm sure you'll twig it soon enough, but you're barking up the wrong tree.
The map is budding with new ideas and great game-play, AitcraftKiller just has to get to the root of the problem, it seems to have him pretty stumped right now.
Leaf him alone, he's doing a good job. I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say this map isn't fir you.
Anyway, this thread is really starting to lumber along, all this over some sap's map? I thought the game was dead, but this thread at least is poplar. It makes me pine for the days of yonder.
At the end of the day, life's a Beech.. Who wood of thought it?

I had written a note to myself when I was fleshing out the GDI base. I wanted to make the base look more realistic, so I've added street lamps and concrete blockers (vertex matched so the light flows over them, instead of through them) and fixed the sidewalks on the road so that they're raised correctly instead of being mini-ramps. The base also has parking lots, directional arrows, warning signs painted on the ground, etc... I will probably put all of the buildings on a sidewalk like I have for most of them, except for the Weapons Factory and Repair Facility. The WF being so close to the road will make a .5 meter difference instead of a .25 meter height difference, which would make it unhoppable by vehicles.
Here's the layout of Hammerfest with the new sidewalks, lamps, cargo, etc:
A close-up shot of the street lamps I've designed. I was originally going to use nothing but Renegade textures for it, then realized that it would look terrible because there are no textures in Renegade that could give the same detail that painting a custom map in Mudbox could. So I spent a few hours yesterday modeling it and painting it in Mudbox, and here we are. It has a reflective glass lens, with a glowing mesh to simulate the light and some dust geometry that has a material which simulates flies and moths buzzing around it.
I noticed someone had complained about the Advanced Communication Center's dishes. I found the dish texture that they were originally calling for. It apparently only exists inside of one of the zip files that Mike Amerson sent me 9 years ago. They are now modeled to fit the texture and look a lot better.
Here's another close-up of the GDI base. I didn't feel that the Repair Facility needed a sidewalk for obvious reasons (It's a vehicle repair facility!). The structures that do have sidewalks will likely have some decorative foliage to adorn them. Even military bases have some kind of landscaping.
When you come out of the ore mine that leads to the GDI base, the first thing you see besides the AGT and Guard Towers shooting at you is this:
I'll need some gameplay testers within two weeks so I can start figuring out if infantry need some kind of access to each base that can bypass the base defenses.

Absolutely stunning work! I love your attention to detail. I stared at the street lamp shot for a few minutes. The redesigned AGT makes sense now, looks realistic, and downright sinister.
It will be an honour to help test. I didn't know there was no way possible yet for infantry to sneak in. What came to mind were the infantry tunnels in Last Stand that added an additional side of gameplay to spice things up a bit.
btw, that sign looks deadly. "GDI Hammerfest Command..." amazing! You did it so well that it churned my stomach and made me feel like an ordinary civilian. No joke. Authority just seems to be emanating from that sign.
Excellent professional work!

The geometry for the level is running at around 6k polygons. This includes the terrain only. The props, buildings, trees, bushes, etc - those push it around 100k and beyond. I'm aware of how many polygons it can "handle" but I'm not interested in wasting polygons for the sake of it.
The grass and ground are generally 256 to 512. I see no reason to use 1024x. The textures are tiled correctly and have enough breaks in repetition that it's a non-issue. The only thing that requires a large texture is the Ore Refinery, which is a 2048x map. At 1024x or lower, the detail on it becomes indiscernible.
As I've said to other people, I'm not developing this level based on arbitrary design limitations. I'm developing it with the original limitations in mind and exceeding them by roughly 150%. When or if I port this over to UDK, it will use a set of textures that are higher resolution with a full set of normals, specular highlights, etc.

Might it look better to use the Beta/RJC styled guardtowers that more resemble the look of the cnc95 guard towers?
I don't really find the current small guardtowers fitting in.
I would like to test your map when needed.

I think you should ask the maker for the icon. I could easily attach it to this post at the time I'm typing this but I do not know whether he'd like that 
Group of 7 icons;
Smallest: 16*16
Largest: 256*256

Is that a 4 door bar in your earlier screen shot? If so, does it have a 2nd floor, or is it just the one? I'm curious to know which side (nearest base or wall) that the MCT/elevator is located at if it is indeed has 4 doors.
I never really understood the purpose of a construction yard other than being another building that needs to be destroyed either...but i guess it does make the base look more "complete"

It's just hard to get everyone to use the same file in Renegade.
