VCTF-CTC-Al-halal_Mosque
** UPDATE **
I realize this map doesn't have the best layout. Basically, it's four straight paths from one side to the other. It originally was a BR map but then it got bigger and nobody was playing BR anymore so I thought to try it as VCTF. It may suck in that regard, but I think it looks pretty damn nice!
Okay, beta 1 is available here:
http://www.ctclan.us/maps/VCTF-CTC-Al-h ... que-b1.zip
The name roughly translates from Arabic to 'Mosque of Death'. Very roughly. Romanized Arabic usually doesn't sound that great for map names.
I took Badasp's idea and opened the flag area up quite a bit. At first I didn't like it, but with a little more tweaking I feel that it's definitely an improvement. So, the screen shots are now a little out of date, but the basics are the same. I'll put it on the pub in a bit.
I'm interested in hearing all input, but I may not have time to implement much right away. I tried to keep the hitscaning to a minimum so there isn't an LG and shock in every weapon locker. There are also no ammo pickups which I may change. But, if you need more ammo, just do what I do: go get killed!

looks like fun.
Re: A map I'm working on...
Look very good Jim can't wait to take it for a spin.
Re: A map I'm working on...
I played a beta of this map a while ago on the Bean VCTF server and it looks quite nice. The bases, especially where the flags are located, seem a bit cluttered though. Open that up a bit (or move the flags forward toward the center) and it would work better.

It don't usually say this, but the architecture is awesome, especially that dome part of which I am too ignorant to remember the name.
I'm pretty sure badasp is talking about a listen server gambit

Good job Jim. Can't wait to try it out.
Re: A map I'm working on...
Yea, Jim had shown it to me on CTC North about a year ago. I was messing around with it and had asked badasp for ideas... but then I never did anything with it. As the pictures show, it's absolutely gorgeous.Ghosted wrote:It don't usually say this, but the architecture is awesome, especially that dome part of which I am too ignorant to remember the name.

Re: A map I'm working on...
I've always wanted to try my hand at mapping and if I can find my copy of UT to reinstall the editor I might have to try it out.
Jim, that map looks fantastic. It seems like it has a good flow to it and the scale that I can tell from the pics seems pretty good. I can't wait to try it out.
