and I give this thread...the most boring conversation ever award!!!

[Kryptonic]

Actually it was about Rezil's new map :S

[Soviet]

I know, I'm saying the topic it turned to, not what it started as.

[[SoE]_Zaitsev]

ok, so it weren't oranges but some other fruit (On the left ).

Name your jump map jm_orange or something.

[Rezil]

They're just oranges ffs.

On-topic:

Just another quick update for you all before I go on vacation.





Hope you guys like it.

[t3vY]

Looks nice
P.s : i like the oranges

[[SoE]_Zaitsev]

the blue floor is making me dizzy

[Soviet]

you're weird. I do the whole section of a map in pure caulk, then I texture it, then when I'm done with the entire map I do the lighting.

[Rezil]

and how are you supposed to see the map with no lighting when you're testing? I also use the same procedure as you but I have to put some lights in otherwise the entire room is black...

[Soviet]

I don't compile lighting

[Pedsdude]

Yep, I prefer to do it in sections rather than the entire map in caulk, makes it easier to see how the map is progressing and how it feels in-game, so you can adapt the rest of the map if necessary.

jm_q 1st beta release:

-there are some texture bugs

download link here:

DOWNLOAD (10MB .rar)

The damn map is only like 30% done and it's already 10MB. I'm thinking of splitting it into two maps, one after the other(kinda like nm_jungle).

Anyway for those who still play cod2, please test it and comment on what should be changed, improved, taken away, etc.

[waywaaaard]

ok I tested the map (with a hurted wrist - couldn't jump probably)
reminds me on hl1 (I like the style of the doors) all style etc. and I recognized some of my textueres (you can use 'em no problem)
but the map is now a lil bit confusing (to find the right way) and in the 2 ventilators towers it's too dark
and I missing some details in the long floors etc - maybe only texture or some gadgets and stuff like that

can't say much to the jumps, 'cause as I have already said I can't jump atm
wanna see the complete version seems to be really good - could be your best map up to now

maybe for the title - jm_labs -> poor teddy in there!

[Rezil]

Hey lev, I'm glad you liked the map. Yeah I was watching a hl1 speedrun( Half-Life done quick ) and saw the way the doors were done. I really liked how they looked so I copied them to my map aswell. Thanks for letting me use your textures, if you need any of my(even the original .jpg) just pm me and I'll send them to you. And jm_labs sounds good, I'll probably go with that.

but the map is now a lil bit confusing (to find the right way) and in the 2 ventilators towers it's too dark

Hm, yes I agree that it can get a bit confusing which is why I'll probably make signs on the walls indicating where to go(something like 'test chamber ->'). The vents aren't finished yet, I just wanted to give the general feel of how it looks. Also for the long floors I'm thinking of putting jumps in there too but jumping on boxes gets boring too quickly + the ceiling is too low. If you have any suggestions on what to put in the corridor that can be jumped on please post.

poor teddy in there!

A little easter egg for people.
