but yay!
an awesome-looking TFC map!

Gotta wait dude... I submited the map today should be up in 1-2 days..

Looks awesome ! And it's a TFC map. You, sir, made my christmas.

Link now up! Screenshots are now smaller too (sorry Orph)

Man i was soooo hoping you would comply (notice, i had already deleted my previous post), this map belongs in the forums so people can comment on it properly.

i know it looks like i am being a prick at times, but 400k is asking to much. thanx MJ

post this map in the maps forums, i bet you get a better feedback response as this area is just to small.

link is up and should be working.

You know this forum is for development, not completed projects. If you wanted to advertise you should have done it in your previous map thread.

i asked him to put it here. its complete, but not perfect. i was hoping someone would critique it myrk..
if there is blame, its mine.

Then surely he should have dug up the old thread for this and created a new chapter? Nevermind, I'll take a look at it when I'm back at uni.

That's not possible, Myrk.

the only problem i have, is the one i have always had.. people posting 100% complete maps. to me it says blatantly "thats ok, i got it done without you"

maps can be created without my assistance, but damned few do it well.
as far as this map goes, the author resized his screens with no fuss or muss, so i felt he deserved some positive feedback.. perhaps it will help him on his next map.

after all the time you have been here, and you still feel the need to ask? i don't think you deserve an answer.

its not ego, its statistics. i have worked/assisted/critiqued almost every top notch map to come down the pike blue, or at the very least, most from this site, the rest you will have to just accept my word.. can an egotistical asshole make the same claim?
if you still think its ego.. so be it.

actually, we have some top grade TFC players, the problem is, HL1 mods are not a priority just now..

perhaps after the new wares off of HL2.

The walls seem far too thin - as do the doors, which is odd as the scale seems pretty much spot on everywhere else.

The overall construction/layout seems ok as well, except for that.
External walls are like 1/4 of the players thickness, and it looks a
little odd. I'd also add signposting for the cap points, as I find
myself lost quite a lot on the way to cp1.

Big bug -
or what seemed to be.. the gates dont open for the second point, even
after the 60 seconds is complete. Dunno what's causing this, or if I
missed the obvious but the gate behind tghe door at respawn #2 (after
capping point 1) stayed closed after the alarm, as did the one on the
large castle D:

I think as it stands it's ok, but the construction is a little clunky
in places and the second set of gates not opening leaves this run
through unfinished.

If i'm being stupid, tell me, otherwise go fix the gates :smile: When it works i'll post a proper run through with the screenshots.

The gates work fine. Other people who play tested this never had this
problem so it must be you. Don't know what to tell ya about that.

The signs thing i find rather useless because theres so many ways to
get to the caps so wasting precious brushes and textures for signs is
rather useless. Besides loading up the map and specing around you can
see where everything is with the overview I included (which shows cap
and det packs points). Won't take that long to find everything for
peeps new to the map.

Also the castle is closed off with gates (to prevent camping) along with the door in blue spawn at capture 2.

Thanks for commenting!

does this map lag if your playing on a server with lots of players? I'm getting reports of this happening.

any help will be appreciated.

Are the people reporting it on crap connections? You need to make sure you get a good survey of statistics so you can accurately determin the problem.
