Here's my little bit of feedback. I don't know who's map this is (Apokalypto, Flood?) but I just add my two cents for anyone who is interested:

  • All the glasses inside the windows flicker. I guess you need to calk the four sides touching the frame. I also think there are too many single glasses in some of the windows. You could just use one big glass instead of many small ones.

  • Seems like there is a brush missing above the door at "Brown house".

  • There's something wrong with the back of the van at "Wide backalley". When you slice the backdoor with the knife there are five bullet marks.

  • When you look at the car at "Blue main street" and look at it at the right angle the windscreen suddenly turns invisible. I don't know why this happens but it might help removing the car and putting a new one there.

  • There are a lot of light leaks in the map, meaning the light shines "through" or under walls. You might want to check this out: http://gotdelirium.com/wiki/index.php?title=Lighting

  • This telephone box looks a bit too large.

  • This one brush is displaced.

  • The water at the fountain is no real water. Also the texture doesn't fit. Water in a fountain simply doesn't move like that. It looks rather like a stream.

  • This texture at "Small alley" is displaced.

  • There are some thumbs.db in the pk3 file. Those are automatically created by windows when you pack a zip file but they are not needed. You can reduce the file size by deleting them before you distribute the map. And there are also some strange files called "OneNote Table of Contents.onetoc2" scattered throughout the pk3 file.

There might be a bit more to add but this was the most obvious for me. All in all, it's quite a decent map, not the best but not bad either. What I like in particular is the atmosphere and the rooftops in the middle of the map. I hope this helps to improve the map :)
