UT3 CTF-Retro Beta

wow looks amazing in the screenshots thought of putting in a train that passes through every now and again, would add to the realism alot and make it more interesting. but it does look stunning. i made a train station map once, little things like toilets and benches/bins just make it seem like it was actually alive once.

ha looked at your portfolio and was like.. OMG that was one of my favourite maps.. OMG and that one.. xD no doubt this is of equal standard

lol. That title is very familiar here.

Nice job, I'll download and provide feedback later.

I love the atmosphere you've created, you've got that creepy subway station feel down to a tee. The details really make the level for me, like the work that's gone into the posters to age them. Looking forward to the final.

Looks awesome. Have to try asap!

It's a fun map. I do like the visuals and the layout.

One thing I noticed is that you have a ladder mesh, but no actual way to climb up it. What's the deal yo?

UT3 has no working ladder volumes by default. It's broken.

I'll have to give this a run through

Loving it. This level proves that superhighpoly meshes aren't necessary to make an awesome atmosphere. :tup: The only thing I noticed is the Red Team has 2 LinkGuns and no Bio, and the bots are sometimes having trouble at those narrow bio paths. Other than that I think it's all right. The underground theme was a great idea and it fits the CTF concept very nicely. Good job!

Lovely looking map Hazel, seems a nice layout too

Hello Ms. Hazel!

I've always been a fan of your maps, and this one is really cool too! I really like that it is uncluttered and you can actually see something apart from an assault of static meshes and bloom! Also it has some color apart from industrial browns!

Hmmm... if I had to really nitpick, I would say three things.

1) Some posters look a little bit anachronistic... like the "pony shoes" poster looks more like something for the 40s instead of a relatively modern train station. The "shark in the park" poster on the other hand looked perfect! If all the posters maintained that same GTA III/Vice City modern pop culture ridiculousness they would fit very well!

2) The control/fuse boxes with many multicolored buttons look really low res opposite higher res stuff around them. A higher res texture would really help!

3) I understand the effect that you are trying to give to the posters, where their glass cover reflects the flickering lights, but since the light sources directly above them don't flicker, the effect looks a bit weird. This last point is very minor, though, and it might be just me seeing it that way!

Other than that, the map is fantastic and it brings back memories of UT99!

Love the graphics in this one, specially the white, red and blue tiles.
