Damn bro, you really showed what editor skills and experience you have in this map. I played a couple of rounds and I'm really impressed with your BSP skills.

THX little bro

Also nice use of the PK02 textures :) You amaze me every time over and over.

Great. Indeed, his texture set look awesome  I'm glad I can surprise you every time hihi

Texture wise and BSP wise were mega top notch.
I felt kind of intimidated by so much small lights at first, but after a while I really learned to appriciate all those small brushes :)
Very nice.

THX * 2

Gameplay wise was really awesome. Great mixing of height differentials and those staircases are really cool.

I felt like some powerups could really benefit the switch here and there:

- Where is the shieldbelt? :O With a UDamage, I did not really feel the 50 Vest being placed so central on such a big map.
The reward did not put out to all the dangers in this map.

There is a Vest, Thighpads and Helmet, which can give you 100 Armor if you manage to collect all three, but, chances are you are not gonna collect all three of those 9/10 times.
The UDamage is definitely the Powerup to get on this map, but I feel it was too OP right next to such a Medium powerup.
Shieldbelt would do much better here. But thats just my opinion :)

Well, there is a rule about rewardy items and that is not placing them to close to each other. If there is a clear line of sigth beween them it unbalance the map, specially in TDM. I understand why you think the belt would be a better item instead of the vest but it would unbalance the map making only the UDamage area worthy and also would make a high skilled player to much powerful by collecting the best armor + the powerup. I already added the belt in the beginning for testing purpose but it wasn't good, gameplsy wise. Still, a good armor (vest or belt) was planned at the beginning and after many layout changes, the vest was the best choice

Once again, very nice Steve bro.

THX * 3

And I'm looking forward the footage !

Wow, that rez is cooooooooool

Your moving very fast too

But when your getting close to some walls, I notice you can see through the walls a bit  It's not supposed since there are BV all over those walls

The video is very well made  Love it !!! It would be cool to see a vid like that when I'll release the final if your willing to make another one

 Thanks big bro 

Noo its not because of the BV! Its because UT3 was not made for these resolutions. Both monitors output their own 1920x1080 reso which often occurs in clipping through walls.

Yeah sure bro  I'll make you another one for sure if you release the final! I'll take this one down for now.

Great map, awesome bsp work and a great sky. Layout is good, sound effects and music perfect.

Great !!!

Small stuff you might want to take a look at:
#@ Bio Rifle pickup, there's a lightmap issue @ the floor

Yep, I know but I couldn't fix it, sadly

#@ Tigh Armor pickup, there are two hiding places along the walls but they are both blocked (blocking volumes) if you want to keep them blocked you should have some kind of indication that players cannot go there

Those doors are simply to add some decoration. Gamepay wise, even if their wouldn't be blocked, it wouldn't add anything to gameplay and it's the kind of spot players won't use anyway imo. Beside there is a BSP issue in that section of the map so I can't really make those little spots accessible.

# At first I couldn't tell that the lifts where lifts and not a part of the floor. Personally I prefer Jumppads unless there's an essential liftjump to be made.

In most case, I too would prefer jumpad if liftjump can't be made. But for this map, I've decided to go with lifts.

 #Glass would look cooler with a custom cubemap texture

Agreed. But I like the actual simple look.

 #Some of the stairs/steps are combined with blocking volumes to make them feel like ramps, I would keep them as stairs/steps.

At fist, they was no BV for the stairs. They was simple rectangle and it worked fine, no BV was necessary. Therefore it looked to simple formy taste. I decided to make them look better but since the stair geometry is more complex, it cause the player to collide against them, making them useless. I had to add BV to make them work. but I do not like the stair effect when playing in third person so I prefer ramps to be honest. 

 #Why is the Sun static and not a Lens Flare? Usually Lens Flare usage is fine as long as they're located high up in the sky, that's my experience from using them anyway.

I had think about ading sun flares but I didn't feel it was needed. I love them in various theme but for this map, since the playground is located above the city, full of dense air & strong fog, it wouldn't be logical to see sun flares imo.

Top notch work as always Steve, I am very impressed with the BSP and texturing!

THX very much for the feedback m8 :) I greatly appreciate your suggestions. It's just that I'm done with this map & I feel it's timeto work on somwthing else
