Title: Newmap: Purple Orifice
Post by: Titan on June 15, 2007, 12:40:26 AM
Hi guys. I've been mapping for a little over a year now, but never had anything sufficient to show you guys. I started this map with the intention of finally releasing something. I worked pretty hard on it, but I'd like some critiques (if that's even possible!). I used a lot of references and memories of my childhood to achieve the dark but convivial atmosphere. I think it's better than most of what is played right now; hopefully servers will pick up this great new map. Thanks guys, and have fun:



A real dramatic shot to start things out.

This is one of the dark corners. Spooky!

This is under the Chair of Mordakai. It's probably the best camping spot.

This is me midair! Yea, a pretty cool double jump off the chair.  See if you can touch the top, might get something special! Haha, just kidding.

I really doubt you've been mapping for a year. I doubt you've been mapping for a week.

I really hope this is a joke, but in case it's not:

1. Notice there are things that the popular maps have that your's doesn't. More than one path. More than one room. More than one area. More than two textures. More than one light. Thought put into the layout. Stuff like that. All of that is important. Maps don't just appear when you click the mouse a few times.

Next time, at least put work into something before presenting it to us.

Ehh.... IP doesn't match any other users.  Reverse dns is a *.lft.bellsouth.net hostname.  Also checked the server logs and somebody has been playing as "Mime" and "Titan" under that IP.

I don't know what to say.

Edit: If this is a serious attempt, please read this guide for releasing maps: http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=5149.0

I'd love to play this map with you guys on, hm, graffiti servers maybe, but I'm banned. When I get back in 32 days, I better see all the servers playing purple.

Jitspoe, or anyone who knows, can I play on my own server (with other people) while I'm banned?

Post by: BliZzaRd on June 16, 2007, 11:05:27 PM
you can play on your own server but nobody can play on yours... when your banned youre kinda isolated to play by yourself or on your own closed network at home

Expecting Apocalypse to say it isnt, but meh, like others said, MUST be a joke. I dont see how somone would release something like this seriously.
Title: Re: Newmap: Purple Orifice
Post by: Apocalypse on June 17, 2007, 01:09:34 PM
Why would he register just for that besides Jits did an IP check doesn't match could be but I think he just has horrible map taste and honestly is a really bad mapper.

I met him on a pub the other day and the way he speaks made me think this isnt a joke :///
Title: Re: Newmap: Purple Orifice
Post by: Eiii on June 17, 2007, 06:37:27 PM
The only way he could speak that would make me think he's not joking is if he sounded like a retarded three year old. But, he's smart enough to spell simple words and use punctuation and such (*cough* ^), so I think he knows what he's doing.

XD a dark corner...

Wow. Maybe the whole map had to be censored due to extremely kool content, and what we see is a VERY edited version. Like the anime that makes it to America from Japan and ISNT aired on Adult Swim. You aren't from Japan, are you Titan? Japs are experts at letting their stuff get screwed with... XD XD XD XD

Is this map supposed to be a giant purple vagina? the "memories from my childhood" part led me to believe that...

well he said "memories from his childhood" (birth)
and it kinda seems like what you would think going through one is like while your being born XD... (go towards the light!)

the chair... now that is the only thing that would make it seem like it isn't.

I know the chair is where the baby sits while waiting for the next elevator out of there :P

This map is incredible.  I added it to my server's map list, then removed all the others, so that we could only play this one.  Then I got tired of people joining and rounds ending, so I took my server offline and now I just in this map as an observer all day.

Thanks for making the best map in paintball,
y00tz

I'm going to get off right now to go play it, once again, thanks.

the fact that the kid knew how to compile, light, etc this map means that he could do the other stuff to make a good map. XD, noob. XD.
