Some more words should be said about the gameplay and item/spawn-placement, which did not blow me away as much. For example, the RL and GL are too close. Same issue with the RA and MH. The health count comes out at 130 points (3x25, 1x50, 3x5) plus the MH. This really is low for a Team DM, FFA or Tourney match. As a reference, protourney4 has 170 points. The ammo amounts are balanced, but placing two boxes of PG ammo next to the PG spawn is a bit of a concern. With only 6 player spawn points, it is easy to pick off or locate a respawned player. A few more spawn location would have been nice to see.
The bots play mostly fine, not challenging, but still entertaining. I only noticed one small issue after a bot grabbed the Regen - then appeared to fall into the void below.
In conclusion, I would rate the level an 8/10. I really admire the structure, textures, light and sound, but the gameplay is affected by limited spawn points, item balance and placement. Well worth downloading but may be more suited to 2vs2 or FFA over Tourney.

Beautiful map, excellent work.
The details of this map are impressive and the architecture is beautiful. The red rims go well with all of the different textures throughout the map. Item placement is extremely good with the Megahealth being placed in a well designed area and great connectivity throughout the map.Really nice map fKd, 9/10.PaN61

The concrete gray and red rims reminds a lot of Ikka's "Future Brownie" map (ik3dm1). Which is great, since I love the style.

Pat, it doesn't matter for as long as everyone is free to do so. With enough votes, the average vote is close to its actual value whether a few individuals exaggerate their scores by a lot or not.
Honestly I never liked the 1 - 10 rating system. It's obvious that some people are going to exaggerate their votes in order to get the overall rating closer to what they think the map should be. I think a Like/Dislike with a confirmation button would be a lot better.
Maybe an accidental click. The voting process is a little bit too easy. A confirmation popup with a cancel button would be really nice.
wow, i know its not great... but 1 out of 10? hmm i think i need a thicker skin
you will find it in the map queue here.. sorry i dont quite understand what you mean..

Hey there fKd, since you seemed to have finished your new map over at q3w: any idea when it will be published at lvlworld? Definitely deserves to be provided to a somewhat "bigger" audience (compared to mediafire) in my opinion! ;)
Very well designed architecture and texture choices. Alas, I am not much a fan of vertical maps, and the central shaft gets a tad too crowed and cramped for my taste. I'd have preferred to have a map of this style spread out horizontally more.
ok...
I will give it a try :) Nice idea zihaben, this may make lvl::.. so much more popular again. PS: I have to agree with fkd. Though, your maps are awesome too fkd ;)

"we q3 mappers need to stick together "

@Gio: just google for any of your question, I'm sure you'll find HUNDREDS of answers. Begin with "quake 3 shader manual" ;-)))))))
Gio, questions like these are better for level design forums rather than review websites. Try a website like quake3world.com and you'll get better feedback.-Pat
Tig, how can i create a texture?
I have q3ase but i don't understand the manual... i don't know how to load an image and animate it...can u help me? :)

ok big thanks (again) :)
@Gio: Check the ..::LvL F.A.Q., there are details instructions on how to start a map there. The link is under Site -> F.A.Q. at the top right of the site.
i don't see any ..::LvL's map in skirmish.
i start my maps with the console,
i write:
g_gametype 12
map q3dmp9
But the map doesn't start...
the map lifeline start and i can play it,
the map acid3dm9 start... :-|

That's strange. Perhaps you're in CTF mode? Don't know what else could be causing that, sorry.
the console load the map but doesn't start the game,

I agree with you fkd. I started mapping and it was quite hard to find answers on my questions. As newbie I didnt/dont know where to find other mappers with more experience to ask my questions.

Gio, First off you should be able to find the map in your skirmish menu if you put it in your baseq3. Second, if you want to load from console, type -
/sv_pure 0
/devmap q3dmp9 OR /map q3dmp9
If that doesn't work, what's the error message you're getting?fKd, One thing I noticed that was really sweet about this map is the lighting on the walls up near the top. The spot lights + the shadows cast by those wires is amazing. I kind of wish it was more obvious so people would see it even while playing, but now that I know it's there it's a nice subtle feature.

This map causes a texture corruption problem in other maps for some reason (specifically bounce pads in ID maps).Too bad, because it's a solid map... but I thought I'd save some one else the headache of figuring out which of their hundred or so custom maps is screwing things up....:(
