Full rebuild take 35 mins now. I maxed out lightmaps & got rid of weird BSP seams and bad looking shadows on meshes and it look damn awesome I must say !

It's a simple layout with simple geometry but with fast gameplay. I'm mostly done with this map. As Mégane, I'll release a pre-final here so my UOF friends will be the first to play it

 Oh, no Beta for this one? ;)

 Your a confident one aren't you ^^  

Yes, I was about to say! That looks like the DM-Edge textures ;p

OP updated with this week progress

It's 95% done. I'm just adding stuff to make it look better & better & better LOL

Pre-final next week I supposed, I'm out for the w-e.

Good w-e bro's

The latest update looks amazing - a vast improvement in excess of my expectations

The simple design and the careful use of bright colours makes this a delight to behold. Well done progressing such a beautiful map, I look for to trying it out.

THX Odedge, Achernar and DarK for your comments  I appreciate

@Dark

Yep, custom lensflare, a enhanced version from DM-Aly + custom bubble particle

@ALL

I too really like the lighting. The worst is, compare from my previous maps, it is much simplier. But I guess that for such a small map, it's enough. I use 1 skylight and only 2 directional light. Will add another DL & do some testing but it should be about it after.

I like very much playing CTF but I found it much longer to build than DM because everytime I make a change on 1 side, I must replicate the same damn thing on the other side, which annoy me sometime. That is why I prefer mapping for DM than anything else. But I must say that when I finish a CTF map, I'm happy 

I also prefer reverse CTF a tad more than regular CTF. If I make another CTF, it wouild probably be another small R-CTF 

Yeah, I know but I prefer symetrical base when it come to CTF.

Looks great, I look forward to playing it. I still play the lava map too. :)

Mariane (the lava map) as been put aside for some time. I'm busy on other UT stuff but I'll get to it after. Meanwhile, I'll collect all feedback ya know

 @GnrlSpecific

THX too  I decided not to release in November but rather at the beginning of December. There are some stuff I want to try. In the end, you'll get a better map

For those who care & follow the dev of this map,

In November when I posted the latest pics, I thought I would release the pre-final the 12/12/12. Still, at that date, I was enjoying life with my girlfriend. Then, since December, my mapping time is almost none because real life keep me busy.

This month, CBP3 vol 5 was a surprise & I was asked to beta test the pack in private before the public release. I didn't had the time to test all the maps from the pack, sadly so even less time to work on my stuff.

So, the community have a new bunch of awesome maps from the CBP3 team & the holidays are only in 1 week.

Still, this map is practically 99% finish, only the preview pic & readme is missing. I ask myself if releasing the map now would be a good idea, I'm afraid it would be almost unnoticed & play by few peeps only ?

Well, I'll release it in 2013, like the 2 - 3. I would release it the 1st but I won't be at home, it's my dad birthday

I change my mind & will release the final, a pre-final isn't necessary for this map. I'll release a 1.1 version if something serious is found but afaik, it play & flow very well. At the time of this writing, it's already finished lol My blog is also updated

Will begin working on something else soon

THX

As mentioned at my blog, in the first week of 2013.
