Ok, so this is my first map worth playing. Kinda like Long Haul, with bridges up top and a low amount of jets. Waypointed, but not very well. Shaded, but also not so well.

Still don't know where to host the actual map. Thanks to Grand Diablo for the Tower scenery.

Since the in-game screenies are .bmp I put the direct link, not the image.

And finally the map [URL]

EDIT: I redid the shading on the top part cause it was bad. I also fixed some poly bugs behind the tower, and updated the overview.

I jave also added 2 Stat guns on top. The top is underused, so I decided to add some action.

Very nice...host it at llsc.us and put the pictures there too because they'll most likely be gone by tomorrow.

I didn't like the middle part, it looks like a rough job. Other than that, pretty good for a first map, job well done!

This is actually very good! I really like it for a first map, vash! Though, I suggest you might fix some of the top shading and also make the middle part a bit more....maybe add some form of supports to make it look like its being held up. Very nice.

You should get a screen of the middle part: Waterfalls and stuff

the waterfalls look really bad, its playable, but needs alot of work

EDIT:The pictures should be up good now, thnx Vijcht for the help. You can also dl the map.

I also added a pic of the waterfall as requested, you can see the horribleness.

I noticed on one part of the map, and you will see it too, the border on the poly sticks out in a funny direction. It doesn't affect gameplay, and it is on one of the bridges. How can I fix this? should I just replace the poly?

Can sum1 compress this? or tell me how?

Thnx for all the comments, I'll work on it more later.

Hey, vash enter this is the contest dude! You still have about 6 hours before we judge the maps that are turned it (thus far: geologist's emerald falls, and my inf_fallen)and since yours does contain some form of water, your perfectly eligible to enter!

lol, i noticed how no1 liked ctf_haul (that much I think), so I was setting myself up for failure, but I guess not. XD I just love the whole crazyness of the bridges especially when theres a ton of bots with autos

Looks sweet, but why the .bmp screenshots? Try using a program like Irfanview to convert your .bmp files to Jpg or Png.

Would this map still have the same problems as Haul (flag falling thru all th e bridges when the carrier dies) ?

That was a major problem with ctf_Haul. :-/

ya it does, since you can shoot threough the bridge, but with there being so many bridges, and islands, its not that big of a deal. This map is especially fun when you have a ton of people playing
