ghostfactory

[coOKie]

Hello There.

Ill like to introduce my new map, its my first serious map, and i already invested over 30 hours of mapping, so bluespawn and 30 % of playing area are done.

Its called Ghostfactory, because its dark, creepy and looking dead
I hope it transmits the atmosphere ive intended (sry my english sux i know )

Ive uploaded some screenshots for you to take a look AND give me nice feedback for gameplay, design and technical ideas!

Ill survive all critics so say what you think, it can only make this map better (i hope),


Now its up to you! Feedback pls

Map-Status:
*Blue Base 90%
*35% of total playable area
*Red Base 0%

I think you should make the light_spots in the Blue spawn have a wider outer spreading angle, and disable the shadows on the detail rocks. Apart from that it looks great. If you want to make it really spooky you could add more fog. Great start so far.

i dont know what the hell is going on but the compile is taking ages suddenly and i get the messege: Map Extends are too long. And entities are outside the map, but i cant find anything...

alt+p can be your friend =)
Also judging from the first screenshot you posted HDR needs some work still.
Also Load the pointfile and it'll lead you right to the problem.
You just have to load it everytime you fix the current problem it sees.

Ok here we go, updating content

(Orange Brushs in the Middle=new) and the overview so you can imagine map proportions and pathing maybe.

Startposition of blue improved (new better doors, not working but almost ) and better skybox.
