Hey everybody.
i made a new map "DeathFromBelow" and i decided to get all of your peoples feedback on it. (btw The only reason why i made this topic on my map was becuase i put the some betas on my server and showed it to people. most said that they liked it and told me to post it on the forums.

SO HERE IT IS:
(NEW BETA VERSION)

AND HERE IS THE BETA 2 DOWN LOAD !!

Well, it's an ok map, multiple paths and stuff. But it looks kind of plain and sometimes hard to get going fast.

First you might want to put on some screenies. Second I'm getting this error

Code: [Select]

Error:CMod_LoadBrushMode: maps/beta/dfp_beta.bsp has wrong version number (538976294 should be 38)
Is it just me or is anyone else getting that too.

No, works.

There are many misaligned textures (light).

well the map has good potential i think, and could be fun for like 6v6, but i think u need to add some clip brushes around the places where u wrote "OSIRIS" on the wall because i was trying to strafe jump and then got stuck on your name. use wedge clips to keep people like me off of your name.

i'm a fan of the [otb]speed server. i love cramming maps with people!

i could even see a big 8v8 match played on this!

That's unhealthy. Just after I had finished b2 of it I saw a 32 player OTB server filled, playing minispeed. It was horrific. I was mentally unable to pub for 6 days.

Osiris you're killing me here smalls. Use the Modify feature instead of double posting.

I have a few concerns for lower grade machines that want to play this map.

1. In the mid I get 380-400 FPS when I normally get 1000 all the time. Clutter it up a bit to get that FPS to go up and make it a bit more challenging

2. In the bases I get a horrid FPS.

3. In the long hall I get a horrid FPS as well.

4. Maybe put a light in the hallway of the upper base (camper's box). This is just for looks to me.

These are just my suggestions you can do as you please since it is your map.

5. I tried to play test this with bots but it didnt work to well. Here is why.

^^This is why we need better AI for the Bots. *cough jitspoe

Could do without the brush writing.

I actually played a few rounds of this map against OsiRiS and it was quite entertaining. I think possibly a few minor things to touch up, but the game play is certainly there.

And KiLo, I never drop fps anywhere in the map. And I have a 16mb video card with a normal 60-100 fps constant. So... maybe somethings up with your computer?

Apocalypse · « **Reply #19 on:** August 22, 2007, 09:41:22 AM »

No KiLo is right there is pretty bad r_speeds throughout the map especially in the hallways my fps dropped to 30 at one point
