Hi!
Great news, been working my ass of since 2 weeks back to get this map ready for all those "desperate" concers out there. Anyways, im glad to be able to post you some images from this map and i "hope" to be able to release it at the end of this week!

Yes, the map folows a theme as you can see on those screenshots. This map was also a experiment to learn how entitys work together and how to create nice effects. The end contains two trainstations with a train that goes between them and folows a track along the map. Every 2 minutes the train leaves the station.

Issues: Since the ambient_generic is bugged, i dont know if i will be able to make the train sounds work.

Screen1, Screen2, Screen3, Screen4, Screen5, Screen6, Screen7, Screen8, Screen9, Screen10, Screen11, Screen12

Bye!

Looks awsome!!, what can you tell us about the dificulty? im dying for playing a concmap!

Lt Llama · 10-02-2007, 09:44 PM

Can't say how much I enjoy this map, and I know how much work span put into it, being his first source map. He hit the conc top list a couple of months ago with 2 concmaps for TFC in the same style as Charybda, epic maps with themes, a very very very rare sight latelly (and i mean the latest 2-3 years).
So seeing this move to source is really great.

Havent seen these kinds of maps since Fisheye left

.

The map is medium hard and well balanced, and as in span's TFC maps there is an awsome end room.

And it will be on a conc server near you, quite soon

Sackratte · 10-02-2007, 09:53 PM

Yeah Span. you did a very good job! Enjoyed testing it. The jumps are not so hard and the map looks awesome. i really think all will love playing it

zSilver_Fox · 10-02-2007, 09:56 PM

That is just plain beautiful. I'm almost tempted to send you money in thanks :P.

Desyphur · 10-02-2007, 11:05 PM

Seems like a concy Portal like facility

Lt Llama · 10-03-2007, 05:24 PM

*bump* Think this belongs on the first page.

Player · 10-03-2007, 09:21 PM

Looks okay; a bit grey but still looks good. I am looking forward to playing it.

Lt_Llama, when I finish my map, do you want to gain possession of it? (I won't be posting it up on the forums :P)

cownaetion · 10-03-2007, 10:18 PM

Wow real nice, lots of detail put in there. This will be a great map to use as a reference for theme maps definitely later down the road. Should be on the front page for good examples.

You know I am an obsessive map collector

public_slots_free · 10-03-2007, 10:28 PM

why would you not post it?

Player · 10-04-2007, 09:01 AM

For fear of rejection--not.

I do not know why, I just don't think it is necessary :P

Good maps are advertising for both FF and the game play. But if its insanelly hard it might have the opposite effect ofc. But if the ordinary human can do this map I think you should post it.

span · 10-04-2007, 05:26 PM

Hi!

Thanks for the response, i cant say just yet when im releasing it. I dont want to make a stupid mistake and send a half-finished map out there. But, if i had to guess.. i'd say sometime next week!

Yes, as i said the map folows a very strict theme witch im not planning on breaking loose from. And since all textures are gray its hard to make the map seem colourful.

What about some colored lights here and there?

Lt Llama · 10-04-2007, 08:48 PM

Wait until you played it

It is not a disappointment.

Boogieman117 · 10-05-2007, 02:42 PM

Do Want!

Ihmhi · 10-06-2007, 01:48 AM

Can Have?

span · 10-07-2007, 11:47 AM

Im doing the last changes now, hopefully out tomorrow.

groovyf · 10-07-2007, 02:57 PM

Lovely stuff. Our skills server (wireplay) has been doing well with these new concmaps on.

More please!
