Newmap: Insight
« on: September 10, 2008, 02:47:29 PM »
Ok guys, me and abnormal have made a medium size map called insight. The map is not finished yet, it´s just a beta, but we are not going to change some big things here, but we can fix some bugs or change some textures or add lights, so please help and say what you like and what don´t.Thanks

I hope you can fix all bugs ;)
Maybe i have a bit time the next days to search a few.

Looks good for a small 2on2 map with some jumps. Jitspoe won't like all of them :P

But please delete this horrible tree.

I know it´s not a map with a great graphic and lots of details, but its well playable. And sorry, I can´t delete this tree, because it´s usefull for lots of jumps.Maybe another tree?

Yeah, it would also be ok. Maybe use a model and manage your jumps with some clipbrushes. It is just the point, that all trees made with brushes looks horrible :)

PLEASE do it

It basically draws the entire map when you're high enough - you could try to fix that somehow.

I would use a different texture for the rails, the blue/red metal looks ugly in my opinion.

And some misaligned textures..
(most of the barrels for example)

If you are going to take screen shots of a new map, PLEASE do it a bit of justice and use FOV 90.

I think you should make the rails like you did with the windows inside the tree jump with the metal and the blue/red metal trim

Edit: and also i could jump up from the little ramp with the small barrel up to it next to the side rail and get the flag on blue base. Might be slightly misaligned

Looks great :D


- The middle way is a little bit to fast (flag to flag).
- U need the tree model :P
- 2. way to low?
- 2. way to the roof?
- The sky should be higher. I can come with the head on it.
- Chef-Killer or/and jitspoe makes a demo with the most things.

Uploaded @ OTB-Servers.

Sorry, I'm using a SS script, I thought it fixed the fov. Anyway I'll add that to the script.

I don't like the spawn room, it'll make it be easy to spawnkill. I would make many spawn points in different locations.

At first I didn't even notice the metal thing was ice - maybe change the texture?

The lamp should be higher in my opinion. Also, I would apply a metal texture to the top surface.

Screenshots (fov 90):

Thanks for ideas, but this is a small/medium map so its not much good to make a lots of spawns in different places, because some spawns will have a better, faster way to flag...Ok, i will change metal texture...but sorry, i like lighting in LOW...it looks cool i think ;)

Yeah, do whatever you want it's your map.
I personally like maps that have fast and slow spawpoints - the fast ones with a bad weapon or not a weapon at all and the slow ones with a better weapon.
Then you can for example rush with pgp without loading CO2 and surprise them or camp with your autococker :P
