Map sketch idea by iDante. Was originally a HTF map, though I liked the layout as a DM map. I admit that it'll be more interesting as HTF, though.

@Magrass: looks, waypoints, ambience, gameplay. All nice :) I like the idea of a vulcanic island, but I guess you should make the water more "oceanish" / darker. The rest is really good ;)

@Bimbo:I would like to see there some stretching of the texture and a better idea for the pit since you are very dead if somebody comes from upside. A tunnel to the right side would be cool to get a better gameflow.

@Indian: looks are very default from what I see, the map seems to be good, though for 3-5 players :) I would like to see here some texturestretching either, but you can let it stay the way it is if you like the defaultish look [pigtail]

@All: Very nice to see some new stuff at DM. Maps are cool and ready for botmatches. So all what´s left to say is: Good work Ninja ;D

i don't like them all!!!
@Magrass - long flat chopped polygons look unnatural, shading is kinda plain
@Bimbo - dead ends everywhere, texture is totally boring and shading is kinda plain
@Indian - it's so damn ugly that if i was you i was ashamed to post such ...
-_-

Acting quite shallow and condescending, aren't you?

Insulting him for making maps from other peoples sketches is pretty weak.  Be more constructive, I know you can be.  No warning this time, next time may be different.

Thank you DarkCrusade and Biggles for your comments. ;)

But yes, these maps were stuck in 2008, and I just got them off the laptop hard drive from which the laptop basically died.

I'll do some more texture stretching the next time I make a deathmatch map. :)

If I had to rate them in order of enjoyment, I'd say Magrass, Indian, then Bimbo. 

Didn't much care for the lack of cover on Indian.  Perhaps it was meant that way?  As was stated, good for small numbers of players.  Perhaps there's no point in putting much cover to hide behind anyhoo.

Had to go with Magrass on this one.

Yes, I kind of like understand you. Your one of the few mappers who sells all the effort to looks and it's design.
Among all the beginner-standard maps - the stage of your quality maps is left in the minority. Must be lonely :/

Anyways, among those three maps I like bimbo the most. Anomalously damn fine scenery usage you got there.

My favourite was Magrass, but there have already been so many maps like this ;/
Ratcaves2 was pretty cool, but Indian was kinda boring, could have been made in 2004 :p

I really like Magrass, the other two I don't xD

I think it has a lot of potential, just needs to be a little polished to get it right. But your work is pretty nice and you should keep it up ^^
