What's this? Lapis has actually made a map?

Well, this is technically my third map, but this will be my first official map release. This is mainly an experiement with polygon placement and my first true test of Anna's Soldat Polyworks.

Maneater
Rambo/Point/Deathmatch style map with low jet fuel. INF/CTF Enabled but not supported. Sports about 5-10 players. Non-waypointed.

Despite the name, there are no hurt or special poly's here.

Constructive criticism welcome.

Do the Pointflag and Rambow actually stay where they spawn? Because it looks as if they'd just roll off those tiny little posts.

There is no doubt that the map is good since it's made from Soldat PolyWorks. The shading are very nice, although I am not sure about the gameplay, seems liek you just randomly put polygons on the map. But some shapes look a bit..."weird". You dirty minded freak! ;)

Yeah, it really was just a lot of polygon placement and shading. The flags should stay where they spawn. If not, its about 3 seconds before they'll fall far enough to respawn again.

Belier13, your ban has just been recently lifted - don't irritate DNA.styx (or Lapis) again. About the map, I was going to do something similar, but you beat me to it. Add a deadly polygon on the bottom - that'll speed up spawn time.

The spawn on the bottom near the delta spawn place seems like an annoying place to spawn..

It looks like it has good gameplay, but you could just drop over the map and "commit suicide" without gaining a Death and choose a different weapon (set). I also think a bit more scenery can be added at various spots.

Interesting. Im not sure how well it would work out just from looking at it. Ill have to download it and give it a try myself.

We've playtested it with a small number of players (3) and it does make a fun map, especially for chainsaw fights. =]

I've got another project I'm working on, with the next release of Soldat, and I'll have my own whole new game mode for everyone to try. Mum's the word until I'm finished though.

Either post constructive comments/criticism or don't post anything. Next abuse will lead to another report to Styx, and a second ban will not be temporary one.

Personally, not my idea of what a "map" is, but I like the shading. It just seems kinda...convoluted, disorganized, and barren. I'll have to test it out later to check up on gameplay.

Nice Lazout, but u saz it has low jet... for this layout at least medium jet fuel is suitable i think

Simple but cool! The bgcolors combine with the map. The shading looks good!
