Yet another level by me :] This one has a custom, simple, minimal texture set and almost no architectural details. Mouldy has been design to perform best under the CPM mod and includes the Green Armour. There are also a few custom sounds that will only be heard under CPM as well. The item layout is thanks to Swelt and iX (as well as a heap of great feedback). Some major architectural layout changes over the beta versions took place thanks to Mikey (and others) from Burial-Grounds. A heap of other people have had input into this map, so I feel it is a very community release. With this in mind I am also releasing the map file under the ..::LvL Open Game Source License. The map file and more info about the OGSL is available right here.

Thanks heaps everyone and I hope you enjoy Mouldy Old Bastard.

Yes, when played with the CPMA or OSP mod, a Green Armour will appear. Where it is located it would be easy to replace with 5 Armour Shards, which will give you the same Armour bonus.

Speaking of Green Armour, The mod "Doomed2Frag" mod has it replacing the yellow armor. I know what I said was somewhat out of place because you said "The Green Armour could be replaced with 5 Armour Shards" so I thought of that mod. But however-Green Armor?! In this map?

QL has Green Armor support.

The Green Armour could be replaced with 5 Armour Shards but that is about it. I'm pretty sure that the brush work would be fine, but you never know.

Personally I would tweak the 3 pipes a little to make the jumps smoother, similar with the small pipe from the GL to RL. There is also a difficult jump from the platform near the 3 pipes to the curve on the path that leads to the GL. This could also be tweaked.

These are minor tweaks and would not need to be done at all, just stuff that I think may help the accessibility of the map online (with lag) compared to on a LAN.

How many modifications would this map need to conform to QL physics, since id is now looking at open-source maps? I have to give props to the inventive gimmicks in this map, such as the RA bridge or the tunnel that closes behind the player. We need more of these kinds of maps, it makes gameplay much more interesting. I also actually seem to like the basic, rusty look of the map, and the darkened ceiling effect is a good way to give the map the impression of height. (much like how id does it in Quake 1`s "Shub-Niggurath`s Pit". In a way it has a real-world feel to it, while still letting you know this was a place designed for combat.

Very cool implementation of JPs and nice rust style in this map.

How about adding "map source available" as a browse category? If the point of the ..::LvL OGSL is to get more map source out there and such, making it easier to find the maps that have it available would seem to be useful.

Tigger-On - Great job. As you have noted for others, been fun to watch your skills improve. (I have none, so don't take that as pedantic. :)

Great job. Can't wait for more.

botplayretartedly: From the readme ....

Do not expect great game play against bots. They
will not use the bridge to the RA and have problems
with the jump pads. If you must play bots play
against two of them and never go for the RA yourself.

I was thinking about making a second version of this map that would have good game play against bots, more details and features, but this would end up being a very differnet map.

The .map file is available, you are welcome to try to improve the bot play

Damn nice work. Great performance meets excellent gameplay. Just one thing, Bots remain hanging at the jumppad near the red armor.

Hannibal: Its my site and I didn't want to wait for a review to be done :] I also want to say thanks to everyone that has helped out on the level and pimp the OGSL in some way.

not to stir any crap here, but what was the reason this map wasn't 'reviewed'? If it is simply because "It's my site", OK :) But in a way, having the map actually reviewed by one of the good reviewers here (yes, there's a couple) would put your karma into alignment, don't ya think Tig?

Nice map, BTW.

Fun is here. A keeper. My only compliant is that from the last beta to the final release, you rearranged the MH in a way that you can get both in a row now. I think it sort of concentrates the action too much there, leaving the upper bridge a bit forgotten. But it plays great anyway.

I was a bit wary after reading tig's comments on the look, but this is a very nicely made map. The layout and gameplay have to be the best since pjw's last tourney map IMHO but the look achieved with the barest details and textures is simply amazing. Certainly looking old and mouldy, the texturing has a pleasant sense of flow to it which goes really well with the lighting (although it could have used more contrast in places). A few more details and it really would have had that 'sense of place' missing in most DM maps to go with the excellent theme.

8/10

This map rocks. It was a pleasure testing (thx for the credit) and is not one of those maps that will get built but never see play.

Definitely my favorite Tig map. I REALLY like it as a Tourney map.
