Cybersavior's Map thread, variants to facility and a new map

[cybersavior]

Update: This thread is now transforming into my map thread, and all my maps will apear here from now on

I have made a map pack out of my Facility map, now with 2 variants that are smaller than the original

FXL (the original map)
FLRG (a version of the map with the outdoors section removed)
FMED (a version that is just the warehouse)



and a New map has been created, an homage to Dragon Quest...

I also have a new map, and that map is..... Charlock Castle from Dragon Quest 1 (love that series of games above all else)

Been interesting in seeing this map since you posted those screenshots. Designwise, this map is beautiful. On the other hand? This map puts both IvoryBig and Knuxbig to shame. It's too huge, too many hiding spots. It's like a really cool single player adventure map but that's it.

[cybersavior]

It actually plays real nice, but its designed only for large games, I usually play 20- 24, but 16 is the bare minimum and that's pushing it low, anything less and it moves more towards hide and seek, more info is in the readme.

Also I play at 60 percent movement speed, and have weapon drops on death rot after 10 seconds, as it fast becomes littered heavily otherwise.

Plays nice with bots or did you actually test with other people? Bots are never make for good map design indicators. Right now I run around this map and see it being huge with many twists and turns. But hey, that's just me. Maybe it really does play better, maybe not.

Also, there is an invisible ladder in the elevator shaft of the circle building.

Yeah I know, especially Last man standing or CTF. I have played with all humans up to 16 though, but as it says in the readme do not play Last man standing, or it becomes a difficult game of hide and seek once you're under 8.

Also I lean more towards strategy than an all out frag fest so 16 works for me, those that enjoy the heavy fragging need to play over 20 though, which understandably is hard to organize. There are also variants of this map in the works as well one with the outside completely off limits.

I put the thrustZ on the front on the platform from the elevator pit as its only 32 height, and default step height is 24 (I don't want to change step height globally) its only for front of my elevator platforms, just so bots don't get stuck, and its barely higher than the default(1 shift increment) so I don't feel it looks unreasonable to step that high.

Thank you for the compliments on its visual presentation btw, I appreciate that

Knuxbig

Oh great, I wasn't aware this term existed. Then again, that's probably the reason all my maps after the first Wave Man remixed are quite smaller.

I'll check this thing out when I get a chance.

Aw, I was hoping someone managed to create Goldeneye64 Facility in 8bit!

Imagine that.

Still, somehow this level reminds me of Half-Life. :S

This thread has been updated with Facility being made into a map pack with 3 different sizes

FXL (original super huge map)
FLRG (a smaller version of the map with the outdoor section removed)
FMED (smaller still, with only the warehouse, and nothing else)

Also a new map has been created    Downloads are up in the first post.

Enjoy.....
