hmm this is my first attempt at a map....

do people like it?

if they do i'll keep working on it....... (statiic meshes, skybox, etc.)

post suggestions, bugs, etc. if u want (but only if u've played it)

here's the link: http://home.villagephotos.com/2003-6/10 ... idBETA.zip

EDIT: here's a screenshot

Image - it's a slightly older shot with different lighting, but its just about what it looks like

oh and the DL is less than 200kb so it wont take long

if that is a big hill in the middle its a bad map already.

some things in DB just dont work. non-flat variable heights is one of those things.

lol, yeah it's a big hill

but dont just comment on it.......play it!

i reckon it works better than it looks

then again, i'm biased.....but you should still give it a go

holy shit.

could be fun because there is only chaos - not gameplay :P

not the map for real matches ... but perhaps in ffa ... dunno

as i said - think its gonna be chaos ...

Uh... no. It would most definately be worse. Btw it's CHAOTIC, not chaosish. I'm sorry, I'm such a spelling whore.
:lol:

HI! arma.

chaosish is cooler

:spammer:

what are smallcube's dimensions?

this is 3000 x 3000 x height im not sure, probably 1750 or 2000

but the goals in the corners make the distance between the 2 goals further, and less chaosish....shrug

bah i shoulda made this a poll

what would people vote if the poll was "Should i keep working on this, or start a new one?"

There's no use in continuing work on this. It was doomed from the start. Go play some Deathball.

People shouldn't be discouraged from trying something new. I'm not sure this map would be fun or not, but if every map is just a cube then there's not much point in people making new maps. I'll give this map a go and see if it's any good.
