Now, I've worked on this for quite a while, and ...oh, damn, it's 3:20 at night. DAMN YOU SOLDAT AND YOUR ADDICTION FACTORS!!
*cough* Erm... well, er, it's the first map I ever made, and it's supposed to look like some dude's note taking paper. I'm planning on making an entire series about this, but first I'd like some comments on this one. Not all the polybugs have been ironed out yet, so I will be fixing them in later versions..
I added a black large polygon at the left of the map in order to be able to read the chat screen. This because it's almost unreadable on the white background. A version of the map without the ugly thing has been added in the zip file as well.
Due to the map beeing quite full of sceneries, my guess is some older computers will have problems playing this, sorry 'bout that.

Oh, I used a Texture made by Skoskav, but I'm sure he won't mind me using it, since it's about the definition of empty.

Have fun with it! =D

Heh, oh, and it might be slightly pro-spas. Surely my personal weapon preference hasn't influenced my designing?

Made with Mapmaker Plus, by Mark.jp
Polybugs fixed with Elephanthunter's openmapper.

EDIT: Version 1.1 out, in which I fixed all the poly bugs I could find, (Apart from that nade through the bottom in the down left, which I couldn't fix without making it look ugly) and in which I added (very very very)basic waypointing.

Yeah, I know. Mapmaker seems to add a shade to every scenery I put in, making it quite ugly...
Or is it something else? Please tell me what's on your mind ;D

The maths? A random string I took from my math notebook. It's probably wrong though, I suck at maths :D

Really cool concept, but the layout is pretty crap.

Get to work on that "series" of yours, in which I hope there will be much better layouts.

A++ for awesomelookingnesss.

You can't even begin to imagine the frustration I went through during the creation of this map. :)

Maxx: I really liked the layout, myself... :( but then, I only tried it with spasand m79.

By the way, I just finished a version with no more jumpy polygons with openmapper, and I will release it here when I finished the waypoints too :P

I love it....one of the more original maps....it seems so missplaced when you see it...but as you play it, it really is a good layout...looks like one of my papers! XD

Cant wait to see more maps that have great concepts like this

poopee, steel just aint very, doesn't add much variety, ya know. Silver, grey, and shiney.
Another idea I had however, make a photo of something lookin' like a level, and making that into one. Not sure how that'd work though.
