@neux - screenshots look great. 10% is pretty early on though, don't you think June is a bit optimistic?

In any case, for dromed or design tips (you mentioned tutorials), you might want to try the (http://www.ttlg.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=85) Editing Guild. I do remember some impressive water effects in nicked's Sturmdrang Peak campaign. I think it was one of the later missions in the pack.

It depends on how ambitious you are. If you use standard AI with simple patrols, plan no fancy scripted events like conversations, and stick to standard objective types, it doesn't take that long. Although it might your first go around.

Looks great for a start, nice use of Vigil's lightshafts. :thumb:

Objects aren't much of a problem now, the more the merrier I'd say. However, you must keep an eye on the total amount of cells within the mission.

There are limits to what you can add in a mission, and if these limits are reached the game can't handle it : (the limits are from OldDark to NewDark)
- Increased brush limit from 7068 to 16384
- Increased rooms limit from 1024 to 4096
- Increased ambient sound limit from 256 to 1024
- Increased cell limit from 28672 to 32760
- Increased the maximum number of sides in a cylinder from 10 to 26.
- Increased automap location limit from 64 to 256 locations per page

Nowadays, the cell limit is the one you're more likely to reach first.
