I am currently creating an 1on1 map. So far I have created the basic map structure and trying to figure out balance. I will add eye-candy after the map plays nice.

Nice with new maps, people start playing it

Nice map =)

I will put it on the Quake Legion servers if people want to try it out.

It looks good, and it plays good (only tried 1on1 so far).
The addition of a bit of extra ammo and the removal of water in beta 3 has made all the difference.

Just needs more people playing it!

Said I´d give you some feedback so here it is:

* Too many, narrow corridors. They make for easy spam and not so exciting fights. Feels like maggot lair in diablo 2.
* Quad room should look more like the red room, with lots of openings and a larger area around it.
* One teleport leads to the other, but that teleport leads to the opposite side of the room of the first. It there a reason for this?
* Good flow on the map, you can speedjump pretty freely which I like.

You have some good ideas in the map, but the maggot lair corridors leading between the interesting rooms are quite a turnoff.

I updated the map with some suggestions from various people.

* Corridors are shortened when possible to make the map faster
* Fixed teleporter so that it feels normal (entrance and exit at the same position)
* Widened some places and made others narrower
* Changed steps up to RA to teleporter instead. I never liked those stairs anyway
* All stairs are now ramps (even though they looks like stairs)
* Minor tweaks

I tried to make the map a bit less maggoty but I am not sure it is doable at this stage. But I will consider it if I make another map.

I really like this version, the only thing I'm not sure about is the ramp stairs. But it's really fun to play !

I added some locs to the map for some hot 2on2 action.

phex_stoma_b6 locs

Awesome !
Now just finish texturing it and release a final version

I did some retexturing and minor tweaks. I think this is "good enough", so if I do not get any major complaints this will be the final version.

stoma_rc3

For your info, it crashes my ezQuake Mac OSX build and actually also the PC version





it ran for a time, but when I move into a specific room it crashes.

That sounds bad. Didnt catch it while testing. I jumped around on the map for at least 15 minutes so if you have any additional info It would be good.

win7 same issue here:http://puu.sh/4ACMD.png

Weird. What client are you using? Maybe I can replicate with the "right" client.

EDIT:

Managed to replicate the crash. Thanks for the feedback.

I found an "empty" func_wall which for some reason crashed some clients.

Bugfixed version:

stoma_rc4

Works now

Remember to make some Frogbot Waypoints for the map

Waypoints, good locs, and it should be ready to go !

Best 2on2 map in the game ! Now with added locs!

What about FBCA waypoints ?

I didn't get around to create any. Is people playing against bots still?

If someone wants to step in and create waypoints that is fine by me.

I played it yesterday 2on2 and I loved it!

great flow in the map, lots of speedjumping, good balance imo, it's great fun. perfect for 2on2
its a clever design imo. the only thing that doesn't convince me is the quad position/location. its too easy to defend? im not sure. maybe make an "island" on that room, like u did with mega?

The quad is very spammable from the "balcony" using GL. So if you are late for quad it is possible to at least deny it.
