LEGO!

Or Minecraft :) I like it the not scheme maps. All of the maps want to be quake3 here...

Nice theme, but at some places my computer cried because of tris count. Very much has been done with a small grid size.
Sometimes textures would be better to use instead of cubes, text should be created using textures.
If you want to have the map for dm; the pickups are not spread equally enough, there are some areas where you get much ammo, and some where you don't get any. Also I'd think about clipping the roofs of, as the players on the roofs can clearly see the borders of the map, which is odd. Also what about creating some low-detailed houses out of the playing area to increase the overall atmosphere?

Hi antiklimax! As a public domain released map I thought I could take it and install it on "maplounge". Just added some bases to play it in insta hold. If you dont like your map being published in a mappackage pls write me (nothing@nooblounge.net) and i will take it down. Otherwise thx for it. Many friends did ask me before when there will be a "minecrafty" map. Now it is. Cu nothing

Hello! I am glad that somebody likes it. If this variant suits for you. There would be some thing needing repairs yet, test it with somebody.

looks like something off of a lego box [8.0]

OMFG!...can anyone tell me why this map is in SVN??..april the 1th is already over!! :D

to antiklimax: sry, no offend to you, but imo this map isnt worth the next release because it has no gameplay at all, i would give you 3/10 or even 2/10 for it :/

Windecker | 2012-04-22 02:11

Hmmm.... let's think about this...
Perhaps because Eihrul chose to include it, do you think?

That would be as good a reason as any to see it in the SVN.

mutaF | 2012-04-22 02:55

well, i know that its eihruls decision, i just hardly wonder why its taken?
this is just a plate with some random obstacles on it and even the autor says its a demo-map!
i dont rly care if its in or not but imo its just a wasted space in the sauerfolder and there are other maps which would deserve this place much more...

but thats just my 2 cents!

Windecker | 2012-04-22 04:12

Every map is the same. Just a bunch of polygons floating in an imaginary 3D space. It's all about how you look at it.
Everything has it's own unique qualities.

If you judge every map by identical standards, you end up with a lot of different areas with all the same characteristics. :)

restcoser | 2012-04-22 09:39

Ok, but if this is now a svn map, there needs to be worked on it. Different is not always good, and at this moment the map isn't nearly as good as most other maps floating around here on Quadropolis. So, anticlimax, work on it. Try to reduce the number of unneccessary polygons, spread pickups more equal. Make this map fun to play. :)

mutaF | 2012-04-22 11:11

to windecker:
dont get me wrong, i rly like difference between maps.
The main aspect I do judge maps on, is the gameplay!

if a map has a boring theme and the choosen textures are not my taste, no details at all and even the light is made bad, i still wouldnt mind if its gameplay is nice!!

…on the other hand, when a map is really beauty, nice details, awesome theme and epic custom-textures but its no fun to play it, well then the map is as useless as a brandnew car without engine! :p

Windecker | 2012-04-22 14:47

A brand new car with no engine is not useless. Take it from me, I have experience in this. :)

Zaaikort | 2012-04-22 17:49

The tyres on those cars! I love'em!

Sweet | 2012-04-22 20:35

This is an ADORABLE map. I can't say much about the layout and gameplay, because I am underqualified for evaluating those things. However, I do think it looks nice. The jumping is hard to get a feel for, which is odd, because that's basically what Sauerbraten is. But I enjoy it. Keep up the good work.

antiklimax | 2012-04-23 11:32

Thanks for all :) I working some errors(non correct texturing) and maybe a better clipping. Do you like it or not, this is your personal right. I do not like all maps in Sauerbraten, because it may be beautiful, and good, but if something is missing from it...
