SPEAK YOUR MIND
"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free
to move?"
"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as
metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course,
the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom,
as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning.
Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

This is sounding promising. I've asked Woofy to chime in when he gets a chance about the mapping stuff, I'm sure he will be able to answer all your questions, and he'll do so when he gets a moment.
As far as creativity, you're exactly right. There's only two things you need to make sure of:
1. Maintain playability as close as possible to the original
2. Maintain consistency with the other SP maps in regards to style
Otherwise, you're encouraged to use creative lighting, decor, textures, smoothed geometry for better visual etc. Also check your email for the wasp/lookers build. I also realize that some of the Pfhor levels require a dormant Pfhor texture and a naked operation table BOB. These have been made, I just don't have a build available with that stuff yet. Let me know if you need those and I'll try and get the powers that be to get me one of those.
