So it's not a map, right?!

Its not a map.
A pure-model map wouldn't work because you can't tile textures on the mesh easily.
The best bet is to abuse the hell out of model-usage on a map. Something I want to do but haven't had the opportunity.

Pool looks good O_O.

80,000 is utter abuse. I'm saying with nice layout and organization, around 40,000 polies, it will look sweet and still play nice. Maybe even make it as large as Sunden.
Trust me, every time I'm absent from HL for a while, i make sure I triumphantly return.

You know... 40,000 polygons being rendered from entities alone is still a shitload. Half Life 2 might break 40,000 once or twice but not likely. If that's you're goal then go for it but it seems WAY excessive even for the amount of detail that is there.
Edit: Wow, I didn't read previous posts. Screw this whole message.

So that was a map he intends to use in Turnstile? If so then I have to repeat myself.

40k EPOLY MAP REVOLUTION!
But really, this kind of mapping would be rather exclusive to modellers.
Imagine this: Run through HL1 SP and view all of the props and random objects. If they were all models of considerably nice detail and skin-jobs, and there was a good population of them, plus the more detailed brushwork since you're not using a whole lot for brush-based props, you have a sweet map.
Hierarchy:
Sprites and Effects <Top Most Layer>
Players/Active Stuff
Entities
Prop Models
World Geometry <Bottom Most Layer>
Much Like UT2004.
Maps like these would have a disclaimer and loads of props that go with them. They would be for everyone, but more playable than anything with 9000 wpolies. Like that one thread with that one guy that did crazy spiral pillars that i can't find.
Maps like those can't be played realistically.
VIVA LA 40k EPOLY MAP REVOLUTION!

Hey Rim, some time ago, you told me about a new and much better way of textturing in Max. Can you show me that when you have the time?

UV Unwrap. Flattens the polies so you can paint on a face template. This is true skinning and is so much more controllable and cleaner than all other options.
Search it on the internet, i learnt it in 1 minute. Its not complicated at all.

UV Unwrap is something in Max or is it a seperate application?

Muzzle, even I know how to UV map.
im accually rather good at it, if only in Blender3D.

I know what UV Unwrap is, i was just wondering if that can be done in Max, or with a seperate application. Because there is this thing called UV Unmap or something in de Modifiers list in Max.

@Muzz: Yuh, thaz the one. UV Unwrap in the modifiers.

Aye, but make sure you define the base properties first with a UVW map, then the unwrap one.
