Hey, as some of you may have considered, I'm working on a CTF map for Quake Live / Q3 for quite a long time now.
Finally I finished a playable beta version. I'm really eager for your thougts/ideas on the current state.

I changed many parts since the last alpha version. I tried to scale down the distance between the bases/flags and decrease the complexity of the connections. I removed the third tier in the mid as well.
I hope I found the right balance beetween Attack and Defense.


I'm looking forward on feedback regarding the following points:

- Layout (I dont want to change big structures, but I willingly improve small parts/areas)
- Items (The items are not decided yet, counting on competitive feedback especially by QL CTF players)
- Visuals/Theme (Everything you have to suggest to improve the overall style and making the map easier to learn)


My To-Do-List:

- Clipping
- Lighting
- Fixing/Improving Areas
- Detailing (Just a bit, to make different areas more recognizable)

Hopefully I get more on topic feedback this time...

Have this alpha on my HDD for quite a long time now.
I'm wondering what you think of the layout.
The items aren't set wisely yet, but I just wanted to get some feedback on the general potential of this layout.

Finally I finished the map. I have to focus on other things in the next few weeks, so I wanted to complete the map already.
Hope you enjoy the result.

There are two itemsets implemented:

Duel: RA, 2x YA, MH, 2x RL, RG, LG, SG, GL
FFA, TDM/2v2: RA, YA, MH, RL, RG, LG, PG, SG, GL

Some pukka flavour on the way...

I'm finished Beta 008 of my upcoming duel map.
Unfortunately I was too late to enter the NoGhost Contest.

I'm curious about your view on the current state.
Maybe I'll release a 2v2 itemset with PU as well.

Still few things to do:

- clipping!
- terrain blending
- replacing few textures
- lighting (bright enough)
- adding detail to certain areas (RA i.e.)
- polishing
- items
..

Hey,

it's the first time I post here.
You can read the previous post regarding this mapproject here:

I can come up with a second Release Candidate of my 6th tourney map.

Things I've done for the latest:
- tried to improve the lighting, make it more interesting
- fixed all errors
- removed some structural brushes
- improved the textures for "prosettings"
- little item changes
- added some more detail/plants (maybe I add some more before I release the map)

I think, thats it overall.

I would like to have some further feedback to the current state.
Thanks in advance.
