2MB Beta Maps?

Post by [FGS]Chees »

Congrats to everyone who took part in this successful challenge :-D
This is more a Question and then discussion topic tbh on who is going to make a Beta version of the 2mb maps they posted?
All maps had pros and cons and all maps are liked in there own unique way's by players. So it's a shame if all these maps are not made beta to give the mapper the chance to exclude the con's and make it as best they can on the areas the judges picked up on....if not more.

now that we're free from the 2.0mb limit I'm gona add some new details, make additional spawn exits, make the corridors bigger and sexier, fix the BSP death bug on the pipes, add some un-reachable hallways with doors to expand the sense of location in the rooms, add signage, add moar sounds. gg gk ns. :)

Yeah well brought up Chees, I want to add some of these 2MB maps meanwhile to the bi-monthly map vote, I hope nobody minds. But ofcourse in future I can swap out these 2MB versions for the full versions if the mapper wishes to make a bigger version of their 2MB map (and gives me the thumbs up to host ofcourse!).

I am in the process of making DXMP_Stalwart, it's around 3.7 megabytes currently. :oops:

As I said before, I will be continue working on my map. I need opinions about gameplay and I will improve it.

I think the judges covered everything MJ
I would say the spawns need changing a bit so the top part is open like a tower type thing also weapon racks need adding and more cover between spawn rooms maybe ie random walls maybe a few fence panels.

To me, the challenge is not over... Chinny's bi-monthly mapvote will sort the winners from the losers.

Majster - After playing your map several times in server, I find that actually the gameplay is better than I suggested.
The "errors" of the gameplay actually are the fun of the map and teams are having lots of fun to hold the tower and enjoy the odds. Face's onslaught was like Omaha, but he did take the tower in the last five seconds!
