v1.3

• top of the tower fixed (more space, less inclined)
• ugly camper bush fixed
• some polybugs fixed

v1.2

• bottom of the tower fixed

v1.1

• 2 new paths added (thank you smiluu)
• scenerys added/removed/changed transparency
• changed the bottom of the tower (darker now)
• polybug fixed
• collider added
• texture tweaks
• other minor tweaks

Blacksheep, can you fix the waypoints for this version?

[Blacksheepboy]

Nice use of that lighthouse scenery! Also, that texture always looks great when done well. Good theme, and the map looks nice n' solid.

But, I might suggest that you make the illusion of the lighthouse structure going into the ground a little bit different, maybe have the bottom tips of the polygons of the lighthouse darkened.

Otherwise, nice use of the layout.

Edit:

I did a basic waypointing job on it so that the bots get into combat with each other. I must say though, t/dm wpts are the most dysfunctional to make... It appears that "path 2" wpts have no purpose.

Remove Aero from Soldat and add this map.

[smiluu]

Agree with Duz, this one has some defaultish potential and very glans stroking layout.

However:

It's easy to get demolished by nades when trying to get up here, for that reason I would add another route here.

[As de Espada]

thank you for the compliments!

@blacksheep: I'm not that happy with the bottom of the tower either, and the color is the same as the right part of the tower. Maybe I'll try to darken a little more, but when I did that, the tower lost it's reddish tone, and was kinda ugly.

@smiluu: the map has 2 colliders in that red arrow, you can nadeboost there, but that's not as good as your idea, witch I think is great. Unfortunately this is a TM map (mainly), can you come up with something similar to the left side?

ps.: thanks for the WP, I'll take a look at that

I've just fixed all the TMS bugs. Should be fine from this point on.

[Blacksheepboy]

Sure. I'll probably have them done by Monday, and this time, I'll work out the kinks in the TDM wpt-problem I was having previously.

[As de Espada]

another update, maverick/pato gave me a suggestion to fix the bottom of the tower, now I think it's perfect

I already updated the main file and the overview.

We tested it on a server, 4x4 match. It was very good, peopple liked it.
The only thing they pointed is that the ceil of the tower nees more space. I'll do that soon

[Blacksheepboy]

Okay. Do you mind if I hold off on wpting? I could do it, but I don't think the job would be very good at the moment. I'll make amends for my lack of wpting knowledge by reading some of Keron's guide.

[As de Espada]

ok one more version. The roof of the tower was fixed, one ugly camper bush was fixed, and some polybugs as well. I think this is the last no WP version.

@Blacksheepboy I don't know why, but I simply couldn't copy your WPs

[Blacksheepboy]

I can't copy WP's either. Must be the newest PW's version being weird. My apologies for not wpting sooner. I have something going on today and tomorrow, but I could probably have them done by tomorrow night.

[DarkCrusade]

Now that's what I call a DM map

[As de Espada]

thank you darkcrusade (I hope I can be thankfull, because the map is meant to be TM )

@bsb: ok, I'll credit you once the WP are working
