[Map] Decay

[unixfreak]

Here's a map i've been quietly working on that's been edited on and off for about a year now. Finally got around to texturing it properly and taken it out of limbo.

The map is not team based... no base areas, so it's probably better for mutators in free for all modes or just team deathmatches. I have added bomberball affinities, although i'm not too sure how well it will play. Team deathmatch and ffa matches seem to suit the map best.

(make sure you use the svn version of the game):

I've only been able to take a look at the screenshots so far, but it really does look very promising so far! Texturing and lighting look good already, you got some nice geometry and details in there too, but it's hard to tell whether it is wide and open enough for good RE gameplay from the screenies. I'll hope to be able to check it out in more detail soon and I will get back to you.

Nice that you've been working in silence and then pop out your head with this nice map

How did you playtest the map without waypoints then? Remember, .

I really like the theme!
I think this map fits well with the current set of maps available in RE, and would love to see it included. The texturing is pretty good, and the flow isnt bad (despite my general distaste with stairs in RE and RL)

A nice theme and good lighting and texturing. I found some texture errors, but you have not finished texturing anyway.
The map is open and the only ffa map of its size.

Thansk for the input everyone, i did alot more to the upper section last night.
Should also now be playable with bots (added waypoints/spawns/weapons).

Also fixed the teleport and added some nice particle effects. Some places are a bit dark and could do with more lighting, still playing around with that.

Fixed it up to playable condition. Had a few bot matches and it works okay as far as i can tell.
If i missed anything, let me know!

I might add multiple bomber-hold spawns (if that works? have not tried before) and maybe some other gamemode entities, i'm not sure what will work with the maps layout however. It doesn't have team specific spawn locations, as the map would be unbalanced due to it's layout.

I've forgotten how to set what gamemodes / mutators the map allows. How do i do that again?

Updated, mostly to fix some barely visible texture bugs.
Added some screenshots also.

Hopefully, this is a finished version. Can't seem to find any more problems with it for now.

it looks really good. i'll give it a try tonight.
that warp or whatever it is looks reminiscent of stargate
definitely some cool lighting effects too

edit:
it's actually a fun map to play, with some interesting elements. the warp behind the door downstairs off to the side is not that easy to stumble upon. actually, i had to enter edit to find it. the weapons are well-placed, and in fact, everything seems to be intelligently placed when it comes to cover or escape routes.

there might possibly be a few too many explosives (and i mean literally just a few).

this is quite the camping spot to pick off n00bs:


it is definitely not too plain. there are enough intricacies to make it worth playing several rounds in a row before boredom sets in. it seems to flow very well, didn't get a feeling of incompleteness in any of it's areas. great job dude.
