Ill have a go.

[Siva]

Fans, Heatpipes, and potentially breakable capacitors for danger zones, I BEG OF YOU

[Psycho]

Biohazardus dust ( I could make a football out of the dust in my comp )

[Leenuks]

LOL nice ideas Protocol and Psycho. Yeah I had planned on fans. Sliced and diced anyone!!!

That huge speaker I had an idea for, but as yet is only an idea. I dont have the scripting skills to pull it off. Run by that speaker and the magnetic field would pull all your weapons from you onto the magnet, or maybe just any weapon you have out at the time. There is a mod with that idea already, disarming grenade.

Anyways some more screenshots from the editors.

Some TOOL left a tool in there!

CDRom building in progress

Same only textured


I havent had much time in the last week or two to work on my map, hopefully I can get it completed in time. Same goes for the next couple of weeks. Ill have it playable at least with spawns etc.

[Krank]

You want me to get you a speaker texture leeeeeeeeeeeeeeenuks?

[Psycho]

The only suggestion I have is , the wall colours are in a rocky affect, perhaps get it into grey, etc (case colour)

I dont think he's finished the texturing lol.

Looking good, the screwdriver is a nice touch!

[Psycho]

^ I also think that the scredriver is a good touch, but I think it would be better Red and white, as in trditional Philips screwdrivers

[Jon]

traditional is yellow and black.

[James]

I thought it was just black or red and black lol.

THE MORE YOU KNOW

[Leenuks]

Depends on when you bought your screwdriver. Some Stanley brands are yellow and black. The set I have is transparent green for the phillips and all transparent yellow for the flats.

Ill more than likely take the screwdriver out as its causing some bad bsp and light issues.

As for the textures I am still messing with what would fit best.

[Artin]

But it's so good

[Psycho]

The screwderiver was a brilliant touch Why wont you not get loose screws then?

[~Si[ß]eria~]

Use zonelighting.

[Spiderbot01]

Use zonelighting.

Zonelighting is the spawn of satan!

[Kaiden]

Reminds me of Rats maps on CS lol.

[[FGS]ShadowRunner]

use zonelighting sure, but use it as a "fill" light for shadows... vary the colour between lights and zone light to get richness and deepness into the map.

Fans, Heatpipes, and potentially breakable capacitors for danger zones, I BEG OF YOU

breakable/explodable movers, electricity emitters... could be really fun...

remember HongKong_Storage?

Again, I think this is one of the few maps that actually is what the judges asked, something fresh and a new scenario etc.

IDE cables could be a little more bendy...

[Leenuks]

Can you bend the cables for me! lol.

[[FGS]ShadowRunner]

yes for this map, yes I can... well I wouldn't bend them, I would make new ones...but I think you can do it... just look in SP maps how they did pipes etc... some tunnels and vents and sewers spiral... I think the helibase sewers spiral at some point, somewhere around that level in the SP game... but if you need some help and it dont break the rules or affect your chances of winning, sure why not...

look how it's got player's excited, already discussing what it will be like to be inside... and Echelon's post is funny...

Also yes, too many ladders will totally fail a map... I try to have ladders where it gives the person no view of anything at the top of the ladder. For example the worst kind of ladder is the comm ladder in A51. The bugger can see the entire map... I make sure ladders dont offer any tactical advantage to the bugger, enclose them etc... or dont put them in quiet areas like CMD roof, where ladderbugger can shot away from side, and unlikely anyone else saw him...

[Jon]

I'm sorry, but how can you think this map is good? It hardly fits the theme, textures aren't representative of their realistic counterparts, and the worst thing of all is that I needed to read the text to get my head around what it was supposed to be.

People are excited at the concept of the finished model.

As for my constructive criticism, don't use ladders for obvious reasons. Instead, experiment with teleporters - it isn't a realistic map, so try and find a way around ladderbugging.

[LastEr]

I made this cable tex for you, Leen
It's fdd cable, not ide, coz I have only round cablez.
Tex is x-axis tiled


here you can dload it in bmp:

Will be rotating fans in this case?

I personally think the map is brilliant.

[LastEr]

...find a way around ladderbugging.

Maybe kickers?

[Psycho]

No, like block stuff, out of anyones view etc.

[Leenuks]

For some reason the post I made last night did not appear.

Of the 5 ladders I have on my map 2 long ones are totally enclosed and the other 3 only go to just above head hight. There WILL be teleports to various locations around the map.

As for the textures I am trying to use the default textures in DX. Only one texture I have imported. The IDE cables etc will stay as they are for now as I dont have time to redo them.

[James]

Here's a nice idea, spring/air platforms to navigate some parts of the level.

[Leenuks]

Yeah LTKJAY I like that idea.

[Psycho]

With spawnrooms, what are you thinking about? Id a DDR RAM card or something?

[James]

Ram?!
SPAWN ROOM?!

[Psycho]

Nvm scrap that idea. Were will the spawn rooms be though?

[Leenuks]

Yes there are spawn areas.
