Someone told me a few days back that they'd like to see more maps with only nukes to fight with. I was sure there were already quite a few such maps but I can't find them. There are more than a few rail only maps though lol.
Anyhoo, I thought I'd have a go at a nuke only map but its not that easy. Mostly I've been doodling in 3d. Here's the beginnings of one map....
Its fairly simple. The small pyramid structures have a jumppad at the base, as do the other holes. Each has a nuke. There are also several other nukes in the central structure. All nukes are on 2 second respawn so you're not likely to turn out too soon.
You jump up fairly high and have enough time to spot other players but you're probably not going to survive more than a few bounces from hole to hole.
Some help testing it and pulling it to bits would be great. |

heh, that looks kinda fun  ...
it reminds me of prarie dogs  ...
the only problem i think is that if you cant stay in the hole, youre most likely going to die every 2 seconds from having no cover ...
oh, and is there geo mod  ? |

The small pyramids are geomod as is the central structure.
You can stay in the holes but why would you want to?
As for cover, I'm planning on adding some but I'd like to test the map out with a few players before deciding where. |

What do you call this modification of a already great level, as long as you allow SBKs.

Thanks Frank. I knew there was at least one... I thought there were more.
L4Y's search engine wasn't much help to me. Also, I looked at all the single weapon maps and it that one didn't show up among them. |

Personally I don't like the single weapon section, it just makes finding a level that much more difficult.  |

Oh did I mention. The file system has been allegedly fixed.
It seems to work. I used your level as a Ginny Pig. For those that are interested in getting the file, you can download it here. In about 8-10 hours the rest shall be posted.
Now for the link to your level:

Yay, I got a link. Woohoo!!!
In your face everyone else
Hmmm.. I've never really thought about it but what is it that's in their face when you say ,"In your face"?
On second thoughts, lets not find the answer to that question. |

KERPAL those screenshots look GREAT! 
I'm just curious, what kind of frame rate are you getting in the level?  |

That map reminds me more and more of a standard DM map fused with an Unreal map. Looks fantastic, by the way. |

I'm working on a new island map.
IAC's Island
  
   
  
Its a pretty big island, about 300x300x60 and takes about 2.5 min to do a full walk around it or a 1.5 min boat ride around it, or a 1 min walk over it.

It's pretty much done. Just gotta add items, respawn points and any other random stuff I think of that I can add to it.
Any one up for a test sometime within the next couple of days?
It's currently about 19 mb rared. |
