New map-Tiefe is now available

[Inferno]

If you had read the topic ; )  u will know that this version is a alpha only
so i build no great walldetails, because i can improve the map easily when the layout doesnt fit.

Hello.
Thanks for this new hopefull map !

* First, the size of the file :
When we download a map with FTP or HTML, we can tolerate big files, but in the game, the bandwith is only 3 kB/s :
** Please, do not include temp files like "Thumbs.db"
** The screenshot with the map is a good idea, but I'm sure that 512 * 284 could be big enough.
** 1452 ko => 1182 ko : 1 min and 30 s less.

* Then the sky : Terragen is very good, but I suggest a large cloud just above the camera : you'll avoid blue circles when compressing in JPG.

* Finally, I suggest you to improve the ability to hide Aliens : some corridors are long, and dangerous for Aliens.

* The map is listed and the screenshot is shown when we want to start it with the interface of the game. We can start it with this interface : it's good and lots of maps do not do it.

* Textures and shapes of bridges are good : its a pleasure to play new maps like this ! Thanks !

After a long long breake i have worked yesterday on my map.

[Dersaidin]

I can see you've mapped for other games before.

Looks like it'll play nicely. GW.

Did the forum get reset?

Again; just name the time and if you need a temporary server I'll host .

I would try to make the testing, but it seems like you have a ton of people waiting in line for it already. It looks quite promising for just an alpha.

[Inferno]

The map is ready.

[vcxzet]

toooooooooo biiiiiiiiiiig
nice map though
needs railings near stairs high places
since it is too big you may want to add marking  objects/textures
to make it easier to find opponent base
plus location markers as in meep
not sure but may need some teleporters since walking takes too long
you need a way to avoid jettards some places are to high

[Inferno]

No you have taken the wrong way!

i will add a some pipes at the human base (above)


i hope this will balance it for the aliens


if the server is ready i can show you the best way to the alien base

[gareth]

looks like a nice map overall, it has some nice architecture. The room with only a vent entrance has to go though - uber campsite. imo not too big for say 20 players.

[Survivor]

Server will be up for a while tonight and most of tomorrow.

Server name: Surv

It's become human camper heaven. There are several locations so biased towards human defense even campers would call it camping. In contrast to good alien bases which seem non-existant.

Also the fact that when an alien falls it has to spend a minute getting to where it was against when a human falls and can be considered dead in certain areas is a bit too much.

[n00b pl0x]

dont go crazy with textures and wall designs and yada yada...this map looks really good without them.

[vcxzet]

remember tyrants cant climb ladders

[n00b pl0x]

or grangers

[Inferno]

i will build a lift there or stairs

i have a couple of ideas to solve the problem at the human base

I dont know what looks better and energyfield (without hurt if you touch it)

or a pipework (with holes so dretches can move through)?


Then i will add some pipes above the human base so goons can reach players with jetpacks .

i will build glass here

some railings

[n00b pl0x]

1. what is the purpose of the energy field
2. what are the pink things
3. why do you want pipes? they dont look like they fit the room very well

[Inferno]

1. Aliens cant fall down
2. a human and a goon : - D
3. what i should use then ?

[n00b pl0x]

1. so you want humans to fall thru but not aliens?
2. erm...if you say so...
3. well it looks like you would be able to goon pounce up on top the glass part...then you just need a tiny ledge in the wall to goon pounce up to about level with that balcony...i think i can kindof see a ledge there already on the left...and then once they get there they should be able to get all jettards with a bit of effort

[Inferno]

1. No,  Humans and aliens can walk on it .

2. My Paintart rocks :->

3. yes this is a good idea but with a human/alien cant build shader at the balcony, to avoid campers there.

[yetshi]

quite a few interesting base locations for both humans and aliens.

not bad at all.

[n00b pl0x]

1. Ok I don't really understand its use but I'm sure it will look cool
2.  
3. hmm? I don't quite follow what you're saying

Always try to make things descrete if possible, I like trying to find little things like ledges and stuff to help myself out, but a hugeass pipe system is pretty obvious.

[techhead]

If you think this map is too big, then you probably don't like Karith Station either.

[Inferno]

A couple of screenshots from my shader (Energyfield) Where i am working on





You cant shoot or fall through.

[ArchDeviL]
