One of the maps I remembered from the few months ive played CS (which was more than two years ago), is Oilrig (Save the VIP Gamemode). I liked the style it looked in generally (although I dont like CS), so i decided to make a Soldat conversion. Since there is nothing comparable to the VIP mode in Soldat, its a RS CTF map and the layout has not much to do with its template, only the general way it looks is somehow similar.

and in case scenery is missing for someone (2 scens where I wasnt sure whether they are standard sceneries or not):

The map is not botted (yet).

Enjoy!

I like the layout very much, I could only suggest some aesthetic improvements.
For one, it could use some more scenery, some rooms look very empty.
I think the top area with the smokestacks could use some more 3d shading, I redid a smokestack as an example:

Overall, the map is really nice. I like this new trend of realistic-survival games I hope it becomes more popular.

Edit: Dairy, the program is Soldat Polyworks, currently in very early test phase. Check this thread for more info [URL]

..:o my hero!

I always like the idea of converted CS maps, and I think Avarax' are great, but this is totally my kind of map.

GET IT WAYPOINTED :'(

when u update it, would u mind to rename it to ctf_cs_oilrig so ppl on the server know its a cs map? :D
here are some suggestions for scenerys:
- use the root scenery with 80 transparency and colour = black as a behind everything so when u put some of them in a room it looks like there was an explosion and the wall is kinda destroyed
- sandbags are always cool :D
- i dont know how to say in english: einschusslöcher indem du zb eine die crate scenery ganz klein und mit farbe silber, 100 transpaerenz und behind everything machst und darüber das selbe nochmal kleiner und mit farbe schwarz.

This is fun, the only thing is that it's hard to get up high in the place.

Otherwise this is awesome.

Hi, I think, that it is not balanced map because blue players have the big advantage.

Can you remake map? Make the red house at the left more.
And if it is simple for making add sceneraies that the card was not looked lifeless.

thx for map.

As reaction to some criticism ive received, ive updated and balanced the map once more.

Red has now an "own" tunnel to gu upwards, and the upper right side building entrance is a bit harder to enter now (see changes screen in main posting). Plus: jetpack fuel has been reduced by 50%.

Simply redownload and enjoy!

Ow! :(

atybrc will hopefully add new version to the server soon.

Another update.

After Avarax claimed that lowering the jetfuel would be another advantage for blue, ive increased it again. Just redownload pls.
