Just gorgeous! Well done! Very impressive for ones first map. Excellent skybox truly gives the scene its soul.

You might want to tune the ambient_light color to match the beautiful blue of the night sky. So that the skybox color matches with the real world geometry shadow color.

Awesome sky box you have there, would love to see what that skybox looks like on My 'Caducaus of St Alban' mission.

I hope to make a couple more skyboxes, issue was solved so why not

What excuse do we have not to sculpt, and sculpt, and sculpt, until the job is done?

Yep. Most of the early maps can now be played with very few missing assets. I think Chalice of Kings is down to three, two of which aren't noticable anyway.

Cool textures, but the red one better be aligned correctly! Because otherwise it would never fit the ending of a wall on the edge :o

SeriousToni: it tiles without a problem, and looks like this in the darkness:

Skacky: It's coming along slowly, and don't expect anything huge... but it's going to be neat if I say so myself. :)

Yes but don't you have to align it by hand at each wall because automaticly aligning left would make the texture start with 1/6 of the first columns ending?

Okay, I can do that. Why not?

I don't know that I want to give this up as a prefab, at least not right away.

Once you've got your mission ready you could just ship it with the FM pk4. This way you aer the first one to use it as you've been the one who made it, and afterwards everybody else who wants to can use it, too.

      Stumbled upon a documentary on Enki Bilal, he is one of the most influential comic book artists of my adolescence. English auto-subtitles is rubbish, so you might need to brush up on your French

      Today I did a bit of an experiment! I wanted to see if I could get a dark radiant map into garry's mod, the quickest and dirtiest and not-workiest method is "OBJ2VMF" which converts .obj models into VMF files for hammer to then compile, the way its supposed to work is that you input a 6 sided cube and it turns it into a 6 brush room (not exactly ideal for this since that's not how TDM maps work, this honestly would have been a better idea with any thief game from 1 to the one from 2014 since they all work like that) so what ended up happening was that for every brush there was 6 brushes would be ontop of that almost inflating everything in the map like a balloon, map scale was also an issue that I couldn't fine-tune easily either so the scale is way off ontop of everything being inflated making the space inside the map very tiny! anyways heres the result of that and it looks almost nothing like footloose (plus I did add a bunch of random props in gmod for funsies and better visibility since the process involved replacing all the textures with dev ones that look very flat when in full-bright)
