inf_Tunnel - need waypoints

[Rambo_6]

This map needs some waypoints due to its difficult layout.

While i'm at it, anybody have some ideas for the map before it gets posted?

Overview

[Mistercharles]

Argh, Rambo! Stretch your textures just a liiiitle bit.

[Rambo_6]

Whadda ya mean, it's perfect.... I did stretch them here and there, but it's kinda not noticable....

[Mistercharles]

Just add a bit more. From the overview, it looks like you did a ctrl-A ctrl-F, minus a couple polys.

[Rambo_6]

I'm not sure what those shortcuts even do in Polyworks :O

[Mistercharles]

ctrl-A, select all. ctrl-F, fix texture.

[Keron Cyst]

Whoa, that might take a while. You and your nasty bridges and thin ledges.

You better have given me a lot of jets to work with.

EDIT @Mistercharles: why fix texture? It looks great, probably better stretched in various places as it is. The only texture I fixed was those of two large polygons in the bottom-right, which stuck out from the others' texture badly.

[Mistercharles]

That's not what I meant. I said that it looks like he fixed the texture for the whole map, not including one of two polys. I despise fixed textures, s'all.

[crackadillicus]

no need to stretch it too much, just make the edges darker or lighter and mix in a few shadows here and there

Oh, whoops! I somehow read you backwards. Yea, go stretch some textures, Rambo!

Actually, I think I'll go do that myself while I waypoint, if you don't care.

And no need to PM me for something like this (unless you're Chakra, you're going to make me an admin here, and/or you'll give me $500 and not a penny less—well, maybe). I check all mapping departments daily

Date Posted: August 08, 2006, 10:14:14 AMOkay... I've more or less got all of Bravo done, and roughly half Alpha. But I'm changing jets from 206 to Normal (190), to prevent Alpha FCs from easily Supermanning back down the hill and scoring in less than five seconds of capture. Is that okay?

[Rambo_6]

Sure. Actually, that's much better.

[Keron Cyst]

Heh, that overview is misleading. If it was the size of inf_Abel or inf_Outpost, it would not be that easy to do so

Plenty of polygons' textures stretched. Commencing Alpha wypts., unless you decide that the map should be pulled longer via PW (man, I love that tool. Hard to believe I detested it in the past, for MM+ xD)...

[Rambo_6]

Well, the problem with my maps is that i have no sense of proportion. This map was supposed to be the size of, say, Abel or Outpost.

You might want to move the Bravo flag a little deeper in, perhaps at the base of the tower. It is really in the open at the very top of the hill, and the only people that will defend that are snipers on the tower. I would also give Alpha one stationary gun at the bottom, just to discourage Bravos from super-flying down the hill.

Nope. If flag is too near spawning places, it's hard to steal it.

Oh, it was supposed to be of that kind of enormity? I thought you made it small purposely like that. That must've been the case with inf_Lighthouse too, huh? (I felt it was rather cramped, especially the lighthouse, although I dismissed that since it's a manmade structure, and manmade structures usually... )

Hm, in that case for future maps while creating polygons check back on your work every 5 min. in 100%. Remember, 199% is the exact same as windowed Soldat, so you can gauge screens well that way.
