[CTF] The Smelter

[Sepelio]

Hey everyone. This a remake of a Quake 2 map I have been working on for a while. I've decided its now ready for release after a busy weekend of texturing and lighting. It has some differences between itself and the original but is mostly true to form.

I'm only worried about the scale of the map as it might not be -quite- large enough for Nexuiz as I was recreating it brush for brush. This is a first version however so I can always scale it up and change it

Enjoy.

OOOOH QUAKEY QUAKEY!
...
Heeeey, I liked that screen with the red lights!
Honestly dude, this map is way too small, but that's only what i think.

Doesn't look too small from the screenshot's, height wise I mean, perhaps it's a bit too small in actualy like length size if that's what rad_ished means?

Will try check it out soon.

don't listen to kojn he's gay)) like toast

[Sepelio]

If anyone can give me a difference in scale from Quake -> Nexuiz I can just scale the whole thing up appropriately

[cortez]

its way too small

normally its like 1.25 to 1.5

[Sepelio]

Ok its been scaled up to 1.3 and is now uploading. Also replacing the rather garish button texture with something a bit easier on the eyes.

I'm just going to change the link in the original post since not many of you downloaded it yet.

But heres the link anyway for anyone who hit 'end' on the 'ol keyboard.

Seems pretty good now, so I'll add it to the contest. Could perhaps be a tiny bit bigger, but that's just me

[Sepelio]

Ok after playing this several times it seems red base is indeed at a distinct advantage. So I've been speaking to people and the idea came up that another corridor should be added thusly (the ending location at red base is approximate):



Any ideas/suggestions/elaborations on this idea or anything else?

Also, I don't know with whom you've played the map, but in quake2 BLUE has a very big advantage on this map.
