A little map I made at my spare time called Caribbea, the process took 5 hours in total. No, there's not any decent gameplay in the map, It's just a sraight forward kill 'em all-style map with a single level and no jets in it. It's got loads of custom scenery in it, but if the filesize isn't a problem then great.

Download: [URL] (Link *works* - !!)

An overview of the map:
[IMAGE]


Summary:

- Gamemodes: DM, TM and RM
- Botted
- Recommended players: 2 to 4
- The map has a lot of custom-scenery




Thanks in advance for any comments etc.

Wow that looks great. And i don't think the gameplay is that bad. Look at for example Storm. Almost as simple as that but it still has quite good gameplay.

nice use of sceneries... this some how reminds me of a map i made a while ago (Island Hoppers). but yours is more scenic, although i think going to over bourd with sceneries can kill a map.
a way of fixing the sky so there is no line is to make the skt colour the orangy colour it is now, and then make a new scenery thats a sort of see through greyish clowed type thing. and place that in the sky... and because the clowed wont be square, you wont get the nasty looking overlap.

I agree with Darac on most points, try to fix the sky. ;)
Anyhow, this map looks wonderful!

Soulsnipa - It's not mist, it's called "perspective"

Darac, Subslider & GluLm - I might start reworking the sky scenery, because that little detail has indeed been bugging me for a while now.

Anyway thanks a lot for the encouraging posts everyone, I really appreciate it. [8)]

This map is great if it is just eye candy, I don't think it would be the most uber leet fun map ever, but I could sure learn a thing or two from this map. You have a great artistic sense tot!

their have been a few maps like this you realize Leo... i rememeber there was one that looked really good but played like crap. it was basicly flat and had a submerine in the background or something. i cant quite remember.

Okay - I've uploaded the map into my freewebs account, so go and grab it from there, the link in my first post has been modified to point to the right URL.

Edit - Very fast of you G2KT, although i'm afraid I cannot help at all with the bandwidth problem.
