map -1984 (beta 4)

Edit 2008-04-30: Beta 3 released

Updated to beta 4 because of a missing flare texture.
Beta 4 : Filefront,
Mirror

Beta 3 Download: Mirror, Filefront

Thanks to Kory for mirror Smiley

- Raised the sky so that players can get onto the top of the buildings.
- Grated up most of the water in the sewers to facilitate player movement.
- Widened and clipped several halls and doorways to make map navigation less frustrating.
- A few layout changes, especially near human base.
- Several aesthetic changes, though I'm holding off on some of the detailing until I get word on how the important gameplay changes in this version work out.

Hopefully this version will fix a lot of the issues that made beta 2 a frustrating and definitely not-so-perfect map. Hopefully the next release will be final.

Screenshots:
The gamma was upped in these, they might look too bright to some. They look wildly different depending on which monitor I'm using.




Enjoy Smiley

-----------
This is a map I've been working on for the past few months. My objective was to create something different and have fun in the process. It's called 1984. Originally, it was supposed to be inspired by Orwell's book. However, it didn't really turn out that way.

There is a lot of cratespam. I didn't have much choice because the outside is so wide-open, I had to compensate.

Given the atmosphere the pics create, I'd rename it to something like  Derelict...not that I'm biased towards that name or anything  Tongue

Nice work! I look forward to playing this one, there seems to be many interesting base locations. I've found three minor bugs though:

Texture scaling mismatch here:


The sky shader is not noimpact:


The submerged sides of these water brushes need to be nodraw:

Actually, there is no brush intersection at that spot. It's one brush, but it still seems to do that somehow  :-?

As for the others, will fix Smiley.

It looks very nice, yes. But it keeps on reminding me of a map in rtcw:et...
Could this be a conversion?

Weird... Fullbright reveals that there are duplicate surfaces at that spot:

Is there a junk brush there?

Also, there are a couple of z-fights there too:

It is not a conversion. Any similarity with rtcw is purely coincidental  :-?

Taiyo, I'll look into it. The brush doesn't seem to show in radiant though.

Too many crates replace them with other things. Eg cars in street etc.
Some lense flares seemed off.
Other then that sweet


Do your part, add to the wiki. I have

The large crates you can replace with smoldering wreckage, smashed cars, broken tanks, whatever you think would be appropriate. The smaller random crates can either be left that way or changed into debris or whatnot.

Seems q3map3 is making weird splits then, try to split the water brush yourself, and apply proper nodraw.

I realize the crates in the street look fairly out of place. However, that part of the map is already reasonably resource-intensive, and I don't really want to aggravate that by adding some high-poly cars or other junk. I will try to make something more realistic, though.

Lava, the water bug is fixed in b2. Somehow when i resized the water brush the phantom one just appeared out of nowhere.

Having played it a few times so far, I can safely say gameplay still needs some work. So bear with me.

If the "city" looked like it was suffering nuclear fallout, crossfire from a war, or an alien invasion, the crates could've been airdropped. They could be full of supplies, guns, food, a reactor, anything really.

No, you can only get onto the building that are lower than that. A lot of people have complained to me about the sky being too low for goons to pounce properly. However, I have doubts about how raising the sky will affect balance and jettarding in particular.

Just make sure that Jettards can be pounced/sniped like on ATCS. It's not like jettards actually get anything done besides being a nuisance.
