OK ladies, let me see...ah yes, seems I have a map for you guys to sample... "Holy Gobsmack Batman!!!!" I hear you say  Yes yes, after 7 long years of teasing your asses off, I have a map, a DM map, but a map...It's a little rough IMO (probably has quite a few bugs), but, since I am not entering the comp this time, and have also had a member from the forum test this for me to see what it's like, I am presenting it now to you all.  It's been such a journey to get the skills and finess to make something like this for you guys to play, but I am very happy with how it's turned out, so brothers, enjoy this compilation of mine, and as always, let me know what you think of it!!!

What I mean is that the map is perfect for Brazen.

As everyone else has said, this map looks awesome! At first glance I thought it was for Quake 3 Arena--lots of great little details here and there. I'm very surprised that this is your first map release. Excellent work!

Congratulations tmg. I was expecting something great from you, and you didn't disappoint!
The con's first....
I'll use your screenshot above as reference. Where it says 20 grenades in your hud theres a trim texture that should be where the floor texture is. The very top/middle of your image I cant remember what side but you can see right through to the sky on one of the big light fittings.
Missing texture: "pillar_cnr.wal" which may be the one called pillar1_cnr in your texture directory?
Beside the railgun theres a brush thats gone a bit sour with the lighting, and if you look at the roof high above the railgun you can see some brush trouble there with the little light fitting.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't see a rocket lan in there? Also I don't know if quad + red armor in the map like this is a good idea, I would prob replace with a yellow armor. I also feel theres not enough weapons as is to support the players in the map, especially if you have 8 players in there.
Did you use phong shading on the terrain, because it looks a little square in places? If not then it may added extra atmosphere to those tunnels and look extra sexy.
In saying all of the above I loved the very clean and solid architecture and custom textures with the cel shaded like look very cool! The doom3 style like doors looked great too.
You did a great job converting this from a sp map tmg, I would like to see more of your work in the future. Seriously :)

Over all your map looked good Tmg. A few thing you don't need, is the spawnflags on weapons & items. And on func_door's in Deathmatch I use the spawnflag = 4 crusher that will kill the dead player body's that drop in door, so the doors will close. There's nothing in the worldspawn ? should put a message = "Map by TMG" There's a few textures that need to be line-up, one of the cell light too. MAPSPY 108.100.46.108 beta
from Tony Ferrara and David Hyde
2 guys really, really tired of ERROR: Index overflow
and other annoying errors
Results for f:\quake2\lox\maps\tmg3dm1.map - 08/14/08 22:27:34

Texture directory: F:\Quake2\baseq2\textures\
=================== Runtime Errors/Inconsistencies ===================
There is no 'nextmap' value in worldspawn. It's good practice
to always include a nextmap value, particularly for DM maps but
even for SP maps (you can't be certain how your map will be used)
If the fraglimit or timelimit is exceeded and your map does NOT
have a nextmap value, the game will crash, depending on the mod
being played.
********************************************************
NOTE: The following messages do NOT necessarily indicate
game errors, but MAY indicate logic problems in
your map.
********************************************************
Sounds value in worldspawn entity is 0 or has not been set.
Although 0 is a valid entry, it's best to set the sounds
value to a number 2 through 11 to give the user the option
of automatically playing CD music in the game.

NOTES:
1) These lists contain ONLY those models, images, and

This includes sounds played by target_speakers, as well
as sounds which SHOULD exist but do not (e.g. trigger1.wav
for trigger_multiple with sounds=3.)
3) player/male model and sound/player/male sounds will be
replaced at runtime by the appropriate player model and sounds.
4) Inhibited brush models are included in the 256 model limit.

Yeah Subatomic, it's my first release, but I've been mapping since about 2001, so I've had a long time to get my skills up so as to wow you all, and it looks like I haven't disapointed you lot  I thought I might of forgotten something...hmmm, I'll put it up for download now. www.freewebs.com/tmg32/pillar%5Fcnr.walI've been trying to fix the error next to the light in the main area where you can see out to the sky...I pretty much fudged it there, as the four outer parts around the center cylinder are blackened out, but the center sees out to sky, so I mus fix that asap, but that means another map release... Then again, I will have the chance to fix the gameplay issues you guys have mentioned to me about this map, and hopefully the next release will be better. |

wow. the architecture of this map is really quite good. Some of the details in the hallways and the ceilings are nothing short of amazing and the terrain work, which is tough to do well in q2, is very convincing. mmm.. all those curves. |

Thanks WirlingDevilish. I've been working on the map a bit, on and off for the last couple of weeks if you're all wondering what I've been up to.
Basically I've been taking all the things mentioned by you guys and fixing things up and tweaking a few areas as well, so as to make the map more pleasing to the eye and somewhat more playable.
Should have things all sorted in a couple of weeks...watch this space.

At last... I just loaded it up, and my jaws were dropping! Absolute brilliant brushwork, very complex, polished and harmonic structures, sure it was inspired by SPOG! I mean in a good way, we can see a rather fine map here, with a design, which can be used even in newer games, too! Congratulation! |
