and finally, what are your thoughts about having th jet pack spawn on the map? I tried it out just now, and it is hella fun, but I would like to see what others think.

Jetpack would fit well with that atmosphere, IMHO, so, +1 here.

Looks good Monad!!!!!!! Looks very promising. DM map I presume, how big are we talking?

Nice work also theShadow, very nice.

Goin' slow, but still goin'!

Looks pretty good.

@vede looks like on base of a ctf map



anyway progress!!

@cortez looks like solid brushwork. The texturing however seems pretty random to me

Some really impressive quality of work here, xonotic should have some really fine maps, more so CTF at the moment.

Yeah, I was gonna comment how many great mappers that Xonotic has working for it right now. Really great work, guys.

Just had some suggestions for Cortez666. I think it's looking like a pretty good start . You might benefit from looking at the style of CTF maps that threewave did for Doom3 CTF, the eX set is somewhat similar. I'd agree with strahlemann that the texturing in that last shot is looking a little funky - it might be a good idea to stick with just eX, or at least re-hue the other textures to match the same color palette. I tried really hard to find screenshots of d3 ctf maps but they apparently don't exist on the internet anymore... Some references for what I'm talking about in the screenshots:

Hopefully you find this stuff helpful! Keep up the good work

Kaz, your screenshots look really good! (I think they belong to the "inspiration for maps" thread )
Are they from doom?

btw: in my opinion it isnt very simple to break up some areas and give them another "color" than gray, the texture packs are mostly gray

They're from Quake 4. I should also note that they are definitely NOT mine, I just posted them for reference .

I'd definitely agree with you that it can be difficult to start mucking about with modifying the textures and whatnot - I might be able to help out with that if I get the time.

wow Kaz, you put a lot of effort to comment this map, good work, its hard to disagree with anything you said

More sauce:

Soy sauce that is.

*MOD: Thumbnails...

I just love the colorscheme on this one. I mean the yellowish afternoon light gives it a peaceful look, so unusual in fps games ;-).

What could that be? (It's not finished by far )

i know it ! i know it!

Do i win a prize, if i got the correct answer?

hehe
You and FruitieX wont because you know about it (and you both help a lot!)

edit: ok, dissolve it, cortez or FruitieX

wha wha whats that?
Looks nice (expect textures )
New ctf map or sth?

i've never been posting any screenshots here. Till now:

Hey, how did I end up with the wrong sky on this? :O

Experimenting with textures.
Lesson learned: Only bevel brushes if someone else is going to texture them

Hey, how did I end up with the wrong sky on this? :O

Gimme a beta! at least an alpha!! I want to TEST!

*Jumps up and down in impatience

Very interesting architecture, as usual, Rad =)
Texture work aren't quite on the same level of awesome as the geometry tough (like that moaré grate on the last screeny, and that square filled texture on the top of the support pillars don't quite do it for me).

All in all, sweet progress. Make the texture work and lighting as interesting as the architecture and we have a really cool map upcoming
