Carpal Tunnel Clan

I uploaded a new map to the server tonight called Ooges Palace. I'm just wondering if anyone has an opinion about it. Most everyone seemed to like it so... I'd like to take the other Ooges map off and have this replace it. Just a thought. Post your opinions here.

Just delete the other ooges maps.. They are no longer needed. I have to say I am not a fan of playing DM maps when we are supposed to be playing VCTF.. This one really redeemed OOges for me. I really enjoyed playing it.

We talked a little bit about improvements that could be made. It would be nice to have a single manta that was in the center that you had to fight to get. Something hard to get to, but worth it. I would love to see a raptor for the outside or something.. Even without any modifications, I really enjoyed the map. Great find Jim! If you find the mapmakers name embedded somewhere, let me know. I would like to send him/her a thank you for finally getting it right!

To be very clear... GET RID OF THE OTHER OOGES MAPS!

I like the old , not to fond of new .
I get my fix elsewhere , np .
Just new one "lagged" way to much on my box to be able to hit anything .
Like the layout alot , though .

Perhaps a way to fix that lag would be to enclose those rooms and not have an outside that you can see. I like the side routes but they can be optimized for the computer power impaired. Generally like it better than the orig.

On it.

old one... why do you guys persist in changing existing maps that are already good as they are? Now, if there is a map that isnt good as they are, for example, aardvark, then go ahead and make improvements... But other than that, spend your time with new maps... And STOP FUCKING UP GOOD MAPS!

BTW, there are others Im sure, but Little Wingman needs to be replaced with the original.

if your implying your going to edit the map yourself i would stop and let the author do it.

i like the original ooges, so having the olcshcool (not the vomit inducing 08 version) on the server along with this one isnt a bad thing. its different enough to warrent keeping the old one. unlike maps like aardvarklaunch and then aardfarklaunch which are vitrually identical...

Ooges Palace was done by somebody in Europe.

some maps can be changed for the better, most are fine they way they are. but when you look at this map, and then the old one, it tried to expand on that good thing. most of the time people simply just update a map visually by throwing a bunch of new textures on it and saying its a new map.

oogesfunmap and oogesfunmap 08 is an example.

when comparing it to oogespalace, it gets an expanded outside, redone weapons and a NICE visual update. weather or it works with the expansions is up to opinions and preference. original maps are great, but lets face it, vctf doesnt exactly attract epic original maps, so if a map can be altered to give it some new gameplay elements, who's to argue. i kinda wish you had spoken up like this back in the days of BEL when ruff was doing nothing but putting green textures on every map and calling them new.

STOP FUCKING UP GOOD MAPS!

Can you speak up a bit? I'm hard of hearing....lol.

Why do you persist to whine whine whine, you remind me of my Sexy Lady Ethal when she needs some BIG BANANA!! Ju needs some BIG BANANA?....he he.

cool map

wrong, try again

Hmmmmm, by the way pirates defending it (out of character), I would guess Lazy or Phage is the author.

Heh, yeah that is out of character, hmmmmmm.

I'd say just keep them both on for now till further notice.
I liked the new one, more open space with the xtra rooms.
