Your workflow is so insane! It astonishes me how fast you can create decent looking, sometimes even huge maps (like the new ones in G59). Will this be for a new campaign?

Yes, it's not for G59 and also not for EXU (it will need it though! Time to use its tech outside the mod). It sits on a 46080x23040x7168 cube and I'm brainstorming the layout out of that. I'm already accepting the fact that disappearing brushes bugs when looking at a certain angle might be a thing but this is going to be massively worth.

Three weeks, and the biggest obstacle I had to deal with for G59 is DONE
Oh man I'm so happy. This is one huge overwhelming menacing map.

Oh man, that looks really nice! Feels like you're pushing Unreal's lighting to the limit.
UE1 lighting is pretty terrible, which is why maps are usually kept in a darker tone. In the last 2 shots, a lot of your NaliCast architecture seems to suffer from "Myscha greens", where bright orange light over-saturates and becomes greenish, leading to discoloration. You might try and tone down the lighting coverage a little in those areas.
The usage of atmospheric fog is pretty insane though! Hard to believe this is done without Distance Fog. It definitely feels like a much hotter place!
However, can I ask about the mixing of Nali Castle and UT Gothic textures? In my opinion, there's a stark contrast in the first screenshot which feels kind of "out of the blue".

The large castle in the background is the Devil King's one, it's to set the tone that the atmosphere inside is the opposite of what's happening outside, and no one except the King himself only can access. Mainly for story purposes.
Tried to get a bit rid of the greening so far but it's extremely hard to pull off completely without drastically darkening the map. The level is a gigantic mess of actors that I can barely keep track off (it's THAT BAD) and I'm already impressed the engine is able to keep with all that (performance is very okish overall). No zonelight is used there, also.
For the record, there's supposed to be strong lights since there are four light pillars around the skybox that emit those minisuns you see in the first shot, so the illumination doesn't mainly come from the lava lake below.
