Well, it's finally here...shoobuh is complete. There's not much to say that's would be different from the r01 and r02 pages. This is the biggest map we've ever made, and we think it's the best looking map we've ever made.

This is a CTF map with a twist. You can cap the flag in your team's respawn room, or in the enemy base for 2 points and 10 seconds of quad damage. This simple addition to the map caused quite a headache in tweaking it out, but we think we've found just the right settings.

Earlier, when I said this map is the biggest map we've made, I meant it...seriously. This map takes up all of the space in Hammer, witht he exception a couple of empty areas in the corners. We also didn't go too high and low with the map, but it is rather tall, overall. This is mainly due to the pits, but the map does have some height either way.

Wolteg is a push map for TFC. You take the ball from the middle yard area into the enemy base on the cap point. There is a message sytem instead of the colored lights that most push maps have.

The name wolteg came from the song Get Low, by Lil' Jon. Most of our map names don't have any meaning, other than being gibberish that we always say. In a way, the gibberish words do have a meaning, but they're more of an inside thing. Wolteg, however, is not gibberish, it's just Get Low backwards.

Anyway, download the map below, see some screenshots, or even watch the run through video that we made with the first release of wolteg.

This is one of those arena-style soccer maps. As the name implies, it's theme is a game of waterpolo. Well, you're not swimming in the water or anything like that, but you do have to keep the ball in the designated body of water -- which does lead to close calls when you're trying to land in the water. There's a set of beams that show ya just where ya can't go, even though it's obvious what's water and what's not. Along with the Blue & Red teams trying to score, they each have one goalie who is a quad damage and invincible having president that will rule you if you're not careful.
