im a bit stuck 
i dont like maps that just "fall off", and i cant make this look acceptable to me. 

just putting more buildings would look silly, because of the tracks, and i cant get rid of the tracks, because its part of the "image" of the powerplant/album cover.
any suggestions? |
mymapsfeel free to download and review |

Quoting Johnny_Suave | Okay so it's a micro eh? How about making the level a recording studio? You could have mics set up for the instruments, stools and other furniture, soundproofing on the walls and even a window for the control booth. I think that would be pretty awesome. |
There was a CLK recording studio map, it looked awesome but gameplay sucked. If someone does this idea they should look at that map to learn from what went wrong in it.

hey dankone not exactly sure what you want or mean but- you might try adding a solid under things and just making an invisible solid that can't be seen a ways before the actual edge. so its not a drop off look its a continuing look with a invisible wall |

Quoting Mostertman | Uhhm a Piano has 88 keys! And don't alot of keyframes cause a lot of lag? I like the idea tho, but i don't think its do-able. |
well couldn't u just have keyframed 1x1x1 boxes with a keyframe that doesn't move and is NPC and has the correponding sound?that way they'd hear the sound but the key wouldn't move. like in Red Frog's WOC
EDIT!
and Dankone maybe u could make a station in that open space.have the tracks leading into 1 or more tunnels and just have the tunnels black. |

^ That is exactly what I was thinking. Just make a brick wall about yay high with tunnels for each track and make the tunnels black. |

I can tell I'm going to be repeating myself quite a bit this time around.
Folks, please. I know we're all lazy. However, certain questions have been asked and answered a few times already. Before asking a question, just do a quick scan through the thread to see if its already there! Its not hard.
For the last time, (I suppose I should put this on the CDC) YES, you can do 2 maps, however, with 21 mappers currently, at submission time you may need to pick one to put in the pack. Otherwise the pack will be huge and no one will download it except for those with extreme broadband. So, yes you may make 2 maps, but there's no guarantee at this point that both will make it into the map. Lets go for quality first, then quantity.

Edit: Decided to edit this post, I'd only have the Sherrif of Spamdon (a.k.a. Johnny_Suave on my case again
A1, sort the seams out on your skybox please One of my pet hates is that!
I am making some considerable progress in my map, I really am pleased with the way it is looking now Now that's a rarity in itself!! I really wanted to post a screenie, but, because it is an arena type level, if I did then there'd be no surprise for y'all because you would pretty much be able to see the whole level!!! And that'd be no fun now would it? 
Still plenty to do tho, but I am not going to go mad with this one, I want to try to keep good framerates and as such less server lag Nothing too complicated, just clean and simple from the ferrit |

I haven't even been able to start mine. I feel so behind. Although, I started half way through RFU3, so I think I'll be fine. |

Well, for reasons I am only partially privy to, most CLK maps were banished from L4U some time ago. I checked corpsesinc and they don't have it as well.
The map is dm-clkstudioshot.
I have it, just rared it up to see how small I could make it (2432 kb). I could try and get it to you somehow. You suggest a method that works for you.
