woodenstool Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I'm kidding about the radical part, or maybe this IS a radically new idea... Ok, there are a lot of cool maps out there, for both Outcast and Academy. We've been to almost every location in the Star Wars universe, we've had Matrix maps, LOTR maps, castles, space stations, mining facilities, even some weird barnyard map. But I have yet to see maps that we, the people out here in the real world, can relate to. Personally, I am getting bored of all these exotic, larger than life maps. And I think maps set in real world would be a very interesting turn/change. Wouldn't it be cool to fight on world landmarks like a full scale Eiffel Tower or the Great Wall of China? Other Ideas: The Pyramids of Giza (Egypt) The Golden Gate Bridge On a skyscraper in Manhattan A whole city block YOUR local high school (I think my high school would make a pretty interesting map) An urban street Your own home (maybe) St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow (joking, or not) So...?
Business_Eskimo Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Decent ideas, but this should be in the editing requests forum.
Lil Killa Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I'm making a cathedral/castel thing... Kind of old and grimy looking
woodenstool Posted November 11, 2003 Author Posted November 11, 2003 Whoa. I didn't see that forum down there. I'll post it again in there. But would that be considered spamming or should I just wait for a moderator to move this?

Gabrobot Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Well, I've sort of, on the side, started a level based around Lyra and Will's bench...I'm not sure if my fellow Sraffies would approve of my releasing it though...
dekerd Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I did a city block. But it was my first map and not as grand as I would have like it to have been. I think it's still at PCgamemods.com. Modern City Street I believe it's called.
WadeV1589 Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Egypt...that's one for me I think, I'll use it in a Stargate level so it'll be a real place set in a sci-fi world - I need my sci-fi dosage!
RenikDelan Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 My HS would be a good one... its fairly small (2 floors, square, with a courtyard in the center), and would be good for CTF or FFA. But come see me if you want the elevator key to the pool on the roof.
RalKon Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I think I have seen a map that was a medievil castle for JO... sorry I dont remember the name, I just remember they used a kejim desert2 skybox
woodenstool Posted November 12, 2003 Author Posted November 12, 2003 Well, a map isn't much use if nobody knows or uses it.
dekerd Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Hey woodenstool, Here's the first map I ever did. http://www.pcgamemods.com/1768/ I wish great map-making people would try to do things like this, because they'd probably be better at it. I've gotten better, but I'd be bored since I've tried already. Try it out. I did a Matrix version of it too. Took me a while, because I had to learn about bot routing half way in.
woodenstool Posted November 13, 2003 Author Posted November 13, 2003 That is amazing. Yes, people should do more maps like this. These kind of "real world" maps, i think, will be a fresh restart to the world of jk editing and mods and make online gaming more interesting,
