I had a look, nice work. I really want to see how it plays!

Looks beautiful! Really nice work!

Very nice map. I found a weird bug and uploaded a demo:

However, you could change the skybox and the water too, because they look very boring. Looking towards greatwall_overloaded_r1

Looks nice. I look forward to r1 too

You don't want to fix the bugs? Oh well, it's your map.

r1 = remakev1

There is something wrong here i guess:

Cortez, i got out of your map and wandered around underneath it, anybody picked this bug yet?
There's holes, holes i tell you.

edit: drat you scorp, yeh that one.... :/

Otherwise a very nice map cortez very nice indeed feels very nexuizy.

I do miss the jump pads tho :"""""(

Was playing it earlier. I get crappy framerates as soon as any action starts. I miss jump pads too. A few people were complaining about the machinegun turrets as well. The turrets really hinder movement and unless your working in a team with people there its not so easy to get past them [which isnt a complaint to boot, just an observation on the pubs].

Other than that its pretty fun!

I threw this on the NN servers and it was generally taken to be an amazing map. You had a few people who don't like maps bigger than eggs and bacon complaining that it's too complex but I think it's the perfect medium. You and tzork have done a beautiful remake.

Other complaints vary about other things I won't even bother mentioning because they are simply ignorant

It's quite nice. It has a few minor bugs, such as the seams under the water, and the jumppads (they don't cross the wall, is this intentional?). Also, I think the tree foliage should NEVER be sprites, it looks really bad that it faces you.

Aside from that, I would say you should add something that tells the player which direction he is headed- away or to his base, in those tunnels. It's hard to tell sometimes where you are going.

Aside from those things, I'd have to play it to get a better feeling for it.

I completely disagree. I think the trees look awesome and they don't seem to lag me. Hell the entire map runs well from my experience.

Yes, some arrow type of design on the walls or something would be cool.

Aside from those things, I'd have to play it to get a better feeling for it.

Uh what? You're commenting on the trees from screenshots?

I meant play it with other people

And the trees look fine, it's just the sprites for the foliage look bad. If he made them static, it would be more realistic (and similar to how modern games do it). The performance is fine.

clarification appreciated.

Another bug here:

Sigh! 21 fps

More bugs:

The "scripts" directory is called "sctipts".

The env/ directory for the skybox is missing.

I've noticed a couple of bits like that, but as a mapper I feel I understand how damn annoying little bits like that are to fix. I'd just call it a feature
