New Map - Chocolate Hills

Post by Otherside »

1v1 Map 8*8

Skybox by smoth

Unlike my other maps this was fully done with l3dt pro (no hand painting)

Image

Green = start pos
White = Geovents
Red = metal (the bigger the red the higher the ammount)

It looks like you have three metal and terrain viable start positions (NE, NW, SW), rather than two and the texture does appear fairly brutal.

I don't get it. I mean, it isn't easy to make a map. Obviously, you put some effort into this. So after your hard work to make a map, you decide it's too much trouble to give us some real screenshots so we can decide whether it's worth trying or not?

I mean, it's your time - you can spend it however you see fit. I just don't get it.

It's scaled down a hell of a lot. It looks really nice in normal view. Also that screenie was taken from within l3dt which downsamples the images so that they can be loaded quickly.

The map ingame will looks really really nice. I know this, because I made the climate he's using :-)

THis is a screen from a very old version of that climate, but it would look similar to this (screenie is from Martian Battleground):

His screen looks like chocolate sand and yours looks like mounds of poo.
Lovin the design of the map but the texture still looks repetitive, And no one plays in altered camera views anyway :P

Suggestions: Chocolate buttons for mexes and chocolate rain falling from the sky!

Oh and one of you needs your contrast changing ;)

Mappers releasing glamor shots from weird camera angles is really annoying. Give me an overhead shot because that is how everyone is gonna play it.

I mean, it looks like a great 1 v 1 map, nice layout, nicely balanced but the texture doesn't do it for me, sorry :(

Could you make a green map with the white clouds and cliffs out of oweee and call it hilltop zone?


Has anyone made a map with special map gadget that plays music only for that map? We could play Green Hill Zone music!

Good god, read my posts!

That shot is taken from l3dt, NOT SPRING

Which is why the texture looks uber crappy noise. Hence the shot I posted. If you were capable of seeing, you would notice that the... Oh fuckit, nevermind. Some people are just mired in idiocy.
