|  | QW 4on4 Map: Naughty Brickworks

Posted by Zaka [88.195.220.186] on 2011/01/04 13:38:36

Hey! Its a brand new 4on4 map Naughty Brickworks (naughty.bsp). It has been a while since I last built a map. This one took me about a month and it went through several different versions until I got what I wanted. I had a good time mapping and Im very happy with the result. Time well spent.
Screenshot number 3 will explain the layout and items. It includes every item except nail packs. Simply put there is a central area with QUAD and then RA side and YA side.
I included 24bit textures, but I havent been able to test them since my glquake will not start anymore after new hardware and winxp installation.

Nice Style There

Awesome visual style by the looks of the screenshots. The screenshots look a bit 16bit.
I like the red brick texture, and the architecture is almost modern :)
Please Please Please

There is an old standard for map packaging:
Please use zip and add a textfile called naughty.txt in the archive with some information. Make the filename naughty.zip. Thanks!
Awesome

could have used more dramatic lighting, but i understand it's a limitation of making a dm map.
also, gl_texmode 2 works well with the grungy brick textures. :)
i think negke is slowly converting me to start using linear/nearest neighbour. :P

don't know to take notice when Zaka releases a map, but I do. This guy knows DM, has class and he's an open sourcer so he's A++ in my book.

i just hope they got it at bigfoot, haven't been on in a while :s
Some Of The Tga Textures Appear To Be Broken

They won't open...
Screenshots Look Great

Taken with software quake (no glblend pixels), so Zaka's glquake must not be workin as mentioned.

type 'gl_texturemode 3' to get software quake look.

I meant that I was unable to open some of the 24bit textures in a graphics editor.

I'll have to play with some frikbots later. It will most likely go up on bender.eugenics-research.org:26000...

Software isn't bad at all. I just made full sized texture wad from the .tga's. The 8bits look as good as the .tga, real nice. Bricks are twice as big though.

That is, playing in glquake the 8 bit textures I converted look as good as the 24 bit. Wally seems to be optimized in converting them well into the quake palette.
Great Map

Great and large map. I'm not much of a TDM player but the item placement seems to make sense.
At first I thought it looked a bit boring (the textures are great, maybe some more colors wouldn't hurt though) but I like it more and more.
Good !

Nice layout, consistent design, nice details touch. Some dark-ish area. The map works well even with bots (i.e reaper bots)
Keep it up !!

JPL, why would you play it with the Reaper bots when I posted Frikbot waypoints? :D
The Frikbots will take all paths and obtain all powerups in this map. ;)

Wow, Frikbot waypoints made by LH - and I had almost missed them!
Thanks!
FrikBots Not Installed
#21 posted by JPL [82.227.229.44] on 2011/01/10 13:44:05
.. Is it a good reason enough ?
Sure
#22 posted by dfsp_spirit [141.2.14.1] on 2011/01/10 15:44:30
Installing FrikBot is easy and LH has made great quality Frikbot waypoint for many maps, so yes imo.
Instrcutions copied from one of my map readme files:
* download FrikBot X - http://www.inside3d.com/frikbot/fb... and unzip to ...\<Quake>\frikbot\
* start it by double-clicking "run.bat" (Note: You may want to adapt the executable of your favourite quake client in there.)
* in the quake in-game console, load the map and add a bot:
map <mapname>
impulse 100
Kthx
