ctf_nuubia2 - needs work *update no.3 - 14/12/06*
« on: December 13, 2006, 02:18:58 am »
I'm a big fan of ctf_nuubia, and I've wanted to make that's actually playable (unlike my last map, which was a complete ****ing failure :(
this is the most crappy map that has ever been nominated for the MotW
Hence, ctf_nuubia2! Any tips regarding...well anything at all to do with the map would be helpful.

OFFTOPIC QUESTION
Does anyone have ctf_tw_cannibals from when it was on Avarax's trenchwar server? I can't seem to find a d/l link.

UPDATE: Made the bases bigger, added another platform, fixed some bugs and fixed the overall size, it was faaaar too big before.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Followed Boxo's advice, made the routes in the middle more seperate and made the layout less complex, I also widened the entrance to the bases. I also d/l'd tw_cannibals, thanks to Avarax for the link.

YET ANOTHER UPDATE: Made two routes into the bases, and made the entrances bigger, hence, less bottleneck.

You should make the bases a bit larger it looks like, and add 2 routes into them. And to give it that old school nuubia feel, color the bases red and blue.

Actually, the bases are coloured red and blue, but I used a trasparent brush, so it's not so bright and wierd, it is, however, quite visible in-game.

All that complicated stuff in the middle is pointless because there's only one narrow bottleneck to the bases. Also make the routes more clear and separeted, don't just throw some floating islands around.

yeye boxo is correct and make the narrow entrance to the bases bigger or even add a second route into the base
