    Finished my first real map, need some testing/feedback

    During my semester break (hence the name surf_semesterbreak) I decided to start yet another map, but this time I told myself to finish it.

    It's supposed to be t2 - easy t3, would appreciate some testers & feedback.

    EDIT: One curved ramp has awful lighting and I don't know how to fix it, if someone could help out that'd be great.

    Map suffers the same mistake as polygon and antimatter - flat textures causing poor depth perception. It's difficult to surf, I didn't get very far in before I had enough.

  3. Thanks Sam thanked for this post

    I knew someone would mention that, besides the last two ramps (mostly 2nd last) I don't see any significant lack of depth perception, at least not to a point where it's more than a minor inconvenience that can be solved by surfing it a few times. I tried my best to support this with shades and different colors, so in my opinion it should be okay like this.

    Thank you for your feedback regardless

    I agree with Crayz, the flat textures are pretty bad, for the reasons stated above. Not as bad as on polygon maybe, but still bad.

    Would a slight pattern on the texture help? If so I'd like to single it out to either ramps or walls to keep a general clean look, which one would help depth perception more?

    Aight here's an alternative version with a slight pattern on ramps, opinions on that? https://ufile.io/e09fa

    It's better, some ramp spines have the same texture issue.

    From this angle the spine looks flat, but it's actually not. It's pretty hard to surf this properly
