Map Description

My original entry for the competition but it kinda lagged behind the other. Again, I went for a subtle cartooney feel with the textures, using soft colours to add to the atmosphere. Weapon placement has once again been kindy done by ReNo. Hope you enjoy the map :)

Heh, just saw the thread and noticed it was called 'dm_osiris'. Not a problem with me if you leave your map with the same name, though others might complain if it overwrites a copy of my map (not likely but whatever :smile: ).

Orph: I don't see myself as a master in anyones eyes, though i'm grateful for the compliment. I don't spend anywhere near enough time mapping these days to warrant such a compliment.

JFry: who told you about my weekend job?

Maybe you should get some other rock textures ... I don't know ... but there should be more sand on them and so ...

bashes Gwil
It's not He-Man, it's Thundercats. Mumm-Ra shall take over the world!

Right, the map. TBH, I don't like the modern-metal and egypt-rock theme much. I would've preferred it if you'd chosen textures which go better with the sandstone. Plus, the lighting is too bright, so you're losing a lot of the ambience you could get with proper shadows.

Oh, and why does that big cube in the middle have that cartoony black border?

Yeah, nice map - the textures are too simple, and gaudy. And the lighting is far too bright..

Cass; you have a strange (and somewhat disturbing) fascination with He-Man :razz:

I smell a good map with bad Egypt textures and the poorest name choice known to man. Name it MUMM-RA!!!

Yes , that`s the reason why i found nobody! I searches all names beginning with M.

K , i didn`t know about his map , so i in fact wasn`t even able to steal a name right?

But if it annoyes him , he can tell me , and i will change NOTHING !

No , just kiddin` ! In this case i would rename the map :sailor:

But now back to the map.....................

i only use the term, when or where its appropriate.. this is a mapping forum, talking about a map, and their authors.. if i feel that said author is my master, well its my choice i suppose.

i will one day be a master,myself...

its an honorific title, not a suck-up or domineering one.

KIIIA I really like your maps and this one is no exception. Makes me wanna go on vacation somewhere tropical! Anyhoo my only concern here is that rock texture (which is very good on its own) looks kind of out of place here. As for the name thing his real name is Adam Hawkins; Orph just calls him master because he's into that dominatrix-type stuff.
