I like it !

But :
- If you activate the blur textures have far too much specular light
- You should increase the precision of the lights because calculates it of certain shadows is absolutely hideous !
- I dont like the one-way teleports and the absence of indication of the presence of jumpads.
- Waypoints for the bots is also missing.

Very nice, technical, map.

There really ought to be at least two (2) greenarmours in a map of this size (for the down player).
The identical-looking teleport and teledest can be very confusing/frustrating.

5/5

t-chen | 2010-01-22 20:31

ok, thx for this fast suggestions! i already fixed some things but havnt currently time to upload it... so the next upload will be soon :)

Suicizer | 2010-01-22 21:40

the map seems to be just between it. another greenarmour is, as i think, to much, but keeping it like this is to less :S. maybe u can add a bluearmour xP.

t-chen | 2010-01-23 13:16

update:
fixed jumppads, lights and changed the picture.

edit: waypoints added

Calinou | 2010-01-23 13:23

great map !
thx for waypoints (i am not always the first to make it ;) )

Kretren | 2010-01-23 16:10

Fantastic. Although I'm not actually surprised..

There's not a single boring area in the whole map. Every part is distinct, yet it all fits together seamlessly.

You could've done horribly with the Trak textures as they are rather uniform but you did well.

My only hangup: Some areas, the textures aren't continued far enough. They sorta chop off. Look for those..

I say 9/10. What else is there to say :P

Calinou | 2010-01-25 12:36

Need to include in SVN : I love it !

t-chen | 2010-01-26 01:46

yey thx :)

I played this in FFA with nine bots at skill 99 and I tell you, it was nothing but action all the way through. The aesthetics of the level are brilliant, yet there is nowhere you can hit your head as it is noclipped extremely precisely. The ammo balance is well tuned, the teleport rings are awesome. The packed gameplay is relentless and brutal. It was a frag a minute. The dynamics of the level are exceptional. I felt like an ice skater.

Ten points from me. Truly supreme. Let's hope it makes the next release.

I just thought i would let you know... there is a random cube in the middle of the sky, anyways nice map :)

t-chen | 2010-01-27 01:20

yey johnny, but i already know it. the cube just shows the position of the skylight. Just in case I want to change it again. :)

/entfind light 0

t-chen | 2010-01-27 11:18

i know, but its much easier on this way. if its such a big problem, i will delete it.

Quin | 2010-01-27 23:00

Not really, just trying to be helpful. Everyone used to do it.

t-chen | 2010-01-28 00:11

it should not sound so hard so, thanks anyway :)

t-chen | 2010-02-10 00:37

can anyone tell me how to deactivate blurtex/shader?

Suicizer | 2010-02-10 08:07

of textures, mapmodels or playermodels?

t-chen | 2010-02-10 10:40

textures and models

Suicizer | 2010-03-15 10:36

sorry for late response, but check out here for your problem with models and textures:

Blurtex? Do you mean antialiasing?
If so, just disable bilinear and trilinear filtering in the options menu.

t-chen | 2010-02-10 21:24

alpha version released!
last changes:
-some details
-decreased specscale

Chasester_aka_you | 2010-02-19 15:49

ok ... i would have to say that it is a good map... the textures ... o the texture.... the textures in esence are good good use of color and variety ... but it looks like ive stepped into legoland or cartoon city... there is a complete lack of realism to the texures ... they are plain and flat... for example the red... its a pure.... or prety damn close to pure... which is unnatural... in real life... there is a lack of variety in the textures themself.. also... im no normal maping expert... its one of my 2 flaws of fullfilling prefection... but the looks to reflective.. the map seems to reflect every light one it... rather id look at trying to commit to more of a realistic texture set... the textures look like a noob that is just learning how to make textures ... complete cartoony quality ...

It would be nice to be able to have some trick jumps on this map... i ran out of time to check the whole map but ... i dont think there are any .... :(

I was intirely confused about the tele because i could not tell if it was a dest or a port... if your could change the line partical color for us stupid ppl ... i did notice the difference tho ... on the port theres a red circle in the middle and a dest has none... but i would like to no from far away without haveing to memorize it.... >>>> :)

in all the map is prety good... but man those DAM textures...

YOUR HUMBLE MASTER

mIscreant | 2010-02-26 04:42

This is really cool. I love the texturing, its unique and gives the map a Warsow feeling (a good thing, imo); I like the sporty cyber-arena look.

My only complaints are the teleporters, which were confusing in a bot match. Maybe a particle or something to show which teleporters are entrances? At least something more to distinguish them besides slightly larger rings.

Overall really nice map. 9/10

Mysterious | 2010-03-15 13:49

i love this piece of content ^^
If this isnt going to get into the new Sauer release , i will....hmmm...what will i do ??
I don know , but there is one thing i know , I LIKE FURY xD :)

10/10

KI113R | 2010-03-18 11:57

its good :)
chester is right about the textures... I myself am a fan of textures like this, but these just dont fit. I dont know why? also the lights, its weird. they seem too... "dim"? I dont know? but the overall layout is nice good for quick ffa gameplay.

t-chen | 2010-03-18 12:46

yep, actually i agree with u guys, but i tried to retexture the whole... uhm,but uunfortunately its pretty hard :(

Chasester_aka_you | 2010-03-18 19:15

if you keep the textures but changed the ones you put up.

the textures that you use are very bright and cartoony: no logical things like dirt or bumpmaping is taking place. If you made these textures more interesting this would improve you map greatly.

Windecker | 2010-03-18 22:01

What is missing is edge definition. This can be pulled off via some clever light placements, or by textures that have edges drawn in a believable manner. Having such prevents two surfaces of slight difference in level from appearing as one solid face. I do realize that you are not the maker of the textures, but the mapper instead, but it is still something to consider.

I also disagree with everybody saying it is a comic style. Some solid textures and constant colors does not make a map 'comic.'

Quin | 2010-03-18 23:28

I think most people mean it is reminiscent of Team Fortress 2, which itself is very cartoon-y. As for providing definition in edges, you can cheat by using some smart lighting to create contrasts of light and shadow; which was probably the intent with the current lighting. I could be wrong though.

Mysterious | 2010-03-18 19:20

hehe i like this comic style =)

Epic work !!

FischKopF | 2010-05-30 11:48

please reupload the map!

t-chen | 2010-05-30 13:27

why? is this link down?

FischKopF | 2010-05-30 15:34

yeah. the download page says: "Die angeforderte Datei konnte nicht gefunden werden. "

t-chen | 2010-06-04 11:25

reuploaded!

FischKopF | 2010-06-04 11:45

I like this map! the overall design is nice futuristic. the lighting is okay.
and the teleporters, jumppads are well designed. i can imagine this a very good 1v1 map.
i can't see the skybox though.

t-chen | 2010-06-05 09:42

ah sorry, skybox is now included.

skiingpenguins | 2010-06-05 13:16

LOL i didnt think anyone would use that skybox. it was such a fail.

anyways, i like the map. it's pretty fun in ffa.

Mars | 2011-09-13 03:32

I downloaded the texture pack and it would not show the skybox, what do you do?

t-chen | 2011-09-13 11:09

Some reason for only 40 points?
I would like to know, so that i can do better next time. Pls explain!
