Wait.. now i remember who you are, M@RK.
I really think it's very immature of you to pursue personal vendettas and outright lie about ratings on this site.

This site is not only for completed maps, but for ideas and work in progress as well(as my map is clearly labeled).

He's not lying, it could be MUCH MUCH better. Especially textures; they're quite weak. But it's kind of a cute map.

you mioli never heard of WIP have you?

Why would I wanna see a WIP? I wanna see something done. I dont need to be updated on something with such little value. Like that one votiv-something, the big church, that is worth seeing WIP because its so intricate in detail and awe-some.

Your missing the entire point, and realizing how much so, I am not even going to try to convince you. I suggest others do the same.

you need to either look at more nodes, or get out. Quadropolis is for sharing cube related content, finished or not. it doesnt have to be finished. quadropolis is for reviewing cube content and making suggestions about it. it's not JUST for distribution maps. if someone making a map wants some opinion, often they will upload it here. people will review it and comment about it. this helps make better maps. if everyone just posted finished maps, cube wouldnt be as awesome.

btw, if everyone edited like you, sauerbraten (or any other cube game) wouldnt be worth playing.

Ha, your funny mhelenurm.
"Quadropolis is for finished maps, not for anything you put together in 5 minutes."
Look at your own map, your only map, and say that. This map has taken far longer than five minutes, and it is a work in progress. If you read the words directly above the screenshot rather than making assumptions, you would know.

i hate to do this:

Mhelenurm is right this map pretty much sucks:
Texturing: i understand its a work in progress. To Start off the texturing is so boring. You need to work on the about of details in the texture. I would at 4 or 5 differing types of brick to spice up the map. Using differing brick in different areas of the map. Also the texturing for the bets and for the furnisher in the rooms look bad. Look at maybe using map models rather then creating it your self.

Light: is a mess; it feels like a fullbright map. Work on my dynamic form of light. I suggest to maybe use an rising or seting sky map, this way you can use a more orange light across the map, and therefor create a better mood for the map. The map need more stuff; as though most people would not say this is a lighting problem, it is, you need more stuff the produce light to very the amount of shadowing on the map.

Layout: One word "TRAIN WRECK". The layout is so boring over used and really honestly not that good. Look at other garden maps on quad, they are a lot bigger grander and over all better. The map loses majority in my book on the content of the layout. I would take the ideas you have expand it then add more garden elements (trees bushes shrubbery, fountains, etc.) and divide your garden into section, not equal section but defined sections. This will help improve your map.

Detail: well i think you and i know that you need more :)

Clip/noclip: as for this map, the ledges need clip (the overhang on all pathways). The outside walls need raised and then cliped, it looks by when i can rifle jump but can not land on the wall.

Cover/sections: opening the rooms will help this, also adding a rail on the top level will give some cover too. The problem right now is that i get shot from bots on the other side of the map, its far to open.

OK i don't think i need to add any more.

Ps: ill rate this a 3/10, but i will not rate it on the site, since it is a work in progress :)

You know that hallway with the stairs that could get out at the middle level? You can use that as a cover too. And to some effect, the support wood for the houses' roof are slightly good as a shield.

IDK though, do I really need that many cover spots? The main map that I'm going after is ot, and that does not have that many hiding spots.

I'm kind of worried about the roofs, they're actually higher than i'm comfortable with right now, any more and it'll ruin the style.
The doorway would of been rounder, but then i can't get the lip on, and that's a bummer.

I'll fix the noclip on the lip between the grass and the rock.
Yep, as it says in my first post, well is unfinished.

what about trying some steep roofs? that would fix the flow problem with the roofs thats happening now.
that about the lip on the doorway is just a matter of experience, calculation and style. im sure its not that hard to do it.
like i said in a previous comment, adding more coverplaces probably will chance the atmoshpere, theme and/or flow of the map, wich is now pretty good.
if it would be my map (wich isnt :P), i wouldnt take such drastic thing like adding more coverplaces, just to get the gameplay a bit better (its a very big choice, with many risks).

Poke and jab me some time, Ill make your a doorway.

Thanks, I will, but you've been kind of afk on irc.
