<div class="IPBDescription">ancient creek for God of Powerful Words - yet another combat</div><b>edit 22/4:</b> done!

oh hellos.
I started this map just for the heck of it and wanted to do some ready room art. but then I had to do
marine start. and then hallways. and then hive. and so on.
but I did it without single line of layout and always with just picture of the next room in my head, so that's the first reason it couldn't turn to a ns_ map, the commander view would be totally scrambled and it's mapped tight so there would be sieging problems. secondly I hit already the 8mbit texture limit as it is now. and thirtly
I didn't give a heck of that 700 wpoly thing. wpoly peak in this map is 1000 as I was doing this just for my own fun. that's second nail in the coffing for commander view. shame though, since I would DO have ideas for whole ns_ map.
but anyways it's ready. I'm still finetuning it, but I'm making this topic so I could release the textures I used.
there's some infested version of the textures I usually like to use and then some. reason for releasing this, is
because I'm embedding the original wad into my map since there's some map spesific (secrets!) textures.
feel free to dig them out tho, if you that bad want them :P
<a href="http://uffo.wanha.org/maps/uffo.wad" target="_blank">here</a> you can download the wad.
and here's some of the textures it contains

and finally some screens of my map, they're snapped while wip, so the lightning may not be correct.

Some of the textures look a bit misplaced. Especially the infestation in the screenshot 3rd from the bottom seems to come from nowhere, but I think I'll comment them more after I've played the map.
The name caught my attention at least.

yah, I've noticed that too. it's coming from kharaa joining area, but it's from time I still had no infestation textures. I'll try to see to it. Or dit you mean that last one coming under the panel? that one's intentional :P
I'll download the wad (and the map if it's released) since I return home, in one week. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink-fix.gif" />
It's done. download link is at the first threat.
well the video is at any least. I'll upload the map tomorrow

I'll definitely check out the final build on this map in the morning <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/marine.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::marine::" border="0" alt="marine.gif" />
there's some odd lightning bug(?) I just can't seem to get rid off, there's some sudden dark areas no matter
how many lights there are. but I grew tired of wrestling with it, so I'm releasing this.
one fun thing worth of mentioning I guess. there's this low-gravity part (when you break the pipe as seen
in video) and when you try to shoot with GL there, all the nades start hovering up. never thought of that :P
and about the notes, there's total 8 of them, not particularly hidden. except one, but you can get there without noclips.
and without any more rattle, <a href="http://uffo.wanha.org/maps/co_perkele_101.zip" target="_blank">here it is</a>
Still laughing at the notes all over the map though. I'd probably get killed running about trying to read them all. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" /> Funny stuff, especially some of the semi-hidden stuff in the marine spawn area. Took a little jumping to get to. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
isn't moving, triggered that door open with simple time delay instead after the last path_corner

[edit]
Perkele? That is what my player says in Forgotten Hope when playing the finish map Karelia (on the finish side) when I die.
PERKELE!
or
wase *something* PERKELE kosko (or something <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />)
He doesn't sound happy when saying it XD

yes, I don't either when I shout it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" /> at one point got angry with this map and changed project name to this and it stuck.
and the sprite thing, I tried making them couple of times, but those white stripes never went away <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" /> and they
appear only when its overlapping with another sprite. don't know how to fix them.
secondly I too thought it could be nice to somehow block players touching the rotatin thingies, but then again
I don't see any downside either aslong as you don't get stuck & jammed in it.
and thanks for the crits & praises for everyone else too (:
wanted to warm up with this before jumping to source or some else engine
EDIT:
Every one loves it - we run a 24 player server, and had people trying to jump the slots on joining the map, nice frame rates, well balanced, and sweet easter eggs!

oh, very mucho thanks :)
nice to hear it's playing rather well for a map that I didn't draw a single line of layout :P
I checked out your server, but the latency is somewhat 350 for me :(
thanks again.
So if your from overseas then you might get a bad ping.
Great map by the way, i was there at the first playing on Custom Factor and the game went for about 45 mins if i remember...
Only thing i can mention is maybe make the hive a bit bigger, it was very hard for marines to get into because the entrances are small and easily guarded by onos...
Apart from that, Awesome Work!
That, and the unique elements like the gravity hallway are a fun addition. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
What exactly does the weldable in the hallway do?
The weldable in the hatch in the middle off the map is pretty nice, but it's a little hard for marines to get there. (At least, I jumped around in MS and managed to get into a vent that leads to it.)
Looks pretty cool, and I love the little details you put in.

when you break down the GRAVITRON it opens the weldabe close to spartacus poster, so you can
fix those spinning things again if you get annoied with low gravity.
and that hatch door. it was mainly meant for jetpackers, but yeah, there could be a easier way around.
and for spellman23.
A: no, unless someone makes them :p
Can't wait for a chance to play this somewhere.
