lol I'm not...

The map doesn't build itself alone you know!

I'm showing parts of the maps as soon as they look a tad close to what I want them to look like in the end. Sucks that ppl mapping for FF don't have access to the textures of the game. I understand why they don't release a texture pack but still... if I could have the textures it would help tremendously.

About the grey issue, I'm planning to fix that with FF textures.
Also, there is daylight in some areas and you still get the huge yard with a big bright sun shinning. You get more sun in this map than in 2fort for example, so don't worry.

I love the idea of the floating flag in a cage. Not sure how it will play but I will download it for sure to see.

o_player · 10-29-2006, 06:11 PM

The map looks really polished, good job.

o_bumgravy · 10-30-2006, 02:49 AM

I kinda like ff_dropdown. I'm looking for something that people will have no problem remembering. That's how I got 3floors. Everyone knows 2fort and it's so easy to remember so I figured 3floors would be easy too.

dropdown is like shutdown so there shouldn't be any problem either.

So yeah, I'm seriously considering ff_dropdown. Any other ideas? ff_thedrop?

o_own3r · 10-30-2006, 05:03 PM

FF_encaged

FF_caged

Two names which come to mind from the flagroom, have you got onto the midfield just yet might inspire the name.

o_sh4x · 10-30-2006, 05:33 PM

Yeah I started the yard but it has nothing special that could lead to a map name.

I have had an idea for the midfield, but it might not be relevent. So I need to know do you have a water route?

o_donny · 10-30-2006, 05:45 PM

I like the color's you are doing this with. Grey and light blue. Really good.
Good job.
The ground and walls though should have more stuff to catch viewers eye for polishing.

o_sh4x · 10-30-2006, 05:45 PM

Owner*> yep

Yeah I know, I would love to put some more details on the walls but I have to wait for FF textures to put the final touches. I'm pretty sure there are gonna be alot of nice decals to choose from in FF.

Regarding the grey and blue, of course this is the blue base only. Everything that's blue right now is gonna be red in the red base. Thanks for the comments.

o_own3r · 10-30-2006, 07:00 PM

Well here are some quick mock ups two alternative base positions in the same map.

and the alternative

Obviously the pairs of base exits represent two distinct bases this just shows alternative positions, of course i have no knowledge of the layout so this is quite difficult.

o_sh4x · 10-30-2006, 07:27 PM

Oh shit sorry I misread you. I thought you had an idea for the name but needed to know if there was a water route...

I already got all the layout planned, even for the yard. Anyways your mock ups can probably serve someone else's map!

o_bumgravy · 10-31-2006, 02:05 AM

I was just thinking actually, in this shot:

The button needs to be more obvious, this is probably another thing your going to add to once you get some FF sign textures etc, but I thought it was probably worth noting because the button is fairly small in such a large room.

Ideas for names:
ff_suspension
ff_suspended
ff_suspenders (cheeky)
ff_fallen (fall in, get it?)
ff_descent

Of those already suggested I like ff_dropdown, also ff_caged. I think 3floors is probably not descriptive enough to make people go "Oh, I know that map", hell 3 floors probably applies to loads of maps.

o_nodnarb · 10-31-2006, 02:54 AM

I like suspended

About the button, it's just a placeholder until I get some nice buttons from ff_sd2 or ff_ofire

It's gonna be bigger, and with signs near it and everything.

I think I'm gonna change the name to ff_dropdown in the next update. Thanks for the suggestions!

What about ff_suspense?
