Here is what I'm working on atm and it's my first multi textured map ever :), after I watched Calypso yesterday I just wanted to create something with alot of texture.

I'll make a tower on the left side.

This will be very small if you dont add some polyislands on the right side ...

Small maps are fine, they have more intense gameplay, and I like it.

I see you also used the background textures for calypso, I recommend you to not use them, because they just suck. Use some kind of fade and blank.bmp for that.

It's actually quite good looking for a first multitextured map.

The only thing that hurts the map's visuals for the moment is those cave sceneries. Perhaps a different one, or a custom scenery made by you to suit this particular map, would work.

Or just ditch the cave scenery idea altogether and use the new scenery background space to put in some more jungle background sceneries. :)

It's fine without nifty shadows. Just sounds like extra work to me.

And Calypso is a flippin' cheery and amazing map. Don't diss it's scenery :P
