(map) The Worm

DECOY · Post by **DECOY** » Sun Feb 18, 2007 6:20 pm

Actually my first attempt at constructing a CE map form scratch. (I
REALLY didnt want to make a "box map" as my first one, so I went for it.)
Remember, first ever attempt at a map, and V1 of The Worm.

Multilplayer CE map set inside a giant Flood ship made from living tissue.
Normal online Multiplayer CTF and slayer.
NOTE* Race gametype is for single player lan game, as their are Flood AI
to fight in Race gametype only.

DOWNLOAD: Worm map (approx 12mb)

The skins look good nice job.I wonder how the flood is going to propel this into space. Maybe you could add engines ripped from other ships or a green fog for the stench of the floods..

Dont worry about the engines, you dont get out of the main hold on this map.

I added a few more pics, as I know a lot of people here judge mods /maps just based on the images posted.

Now this is the best Idea of a "Custom" map ever. I've never seen anything like it ^_^.
My only bad point is that tube, it looks a bit too sqare or sharp to be inside a worm.

unfiortunately, during testing we discovered it was possible to snare a hog on the the end of a tube if you hit it end on at speed. The only fix for this version was to remake the tubes a lot thicker and more industrial.

Its one of a LOT of things on a list for v2. I'm thinking I will probably try to put a team together for the next one, as It was a bit of a stretch to learn all this stuff so I could try it on my own.

I'm in love! (with the map...) Ahhh, this brings me back to the good old days of ape escape and zelda, I loved those maps so much. I'll download and see if it's as awesome as the pics make it look.

wow this looks great, if only there were more ce maps like this then maybe ce would have more then 50 people playing at a time, i'm d/ling right now.

i will host for the next hour or so on ce if anyone wants to join.

i get an error when i try to extract the file, wtf?!

DECOY · Post by **DECOY** » Mon Feb 19, 2007 12:15 pm

I just test DL'd and it extracted fine.

Try downloading again, theres a lot of traffic at the moment. 300+ DL's just today. I posted the DL link on a number of sites.

r0tten · Post by **r0tten** » Mon Feb 19, 2007 12:21 pm

yeah i just finished d/ling again, this time through IE7 rather than Firefox and it worked fine. i'll post a little review after i get a chance to play but from what i see the skin looks awesome atleast.

edit:

ok so i really like the map but it's hard to tell where i am at because there are no real markers, alot of stuff looks the same and makes it hard to differentiate one place from another. the fog was a little to thick and there wasnt any collision on the things around the fog. weapon placement could be a little better too, i.e. not so random/ not so much out in the open for non-power weapons. the ghost 1st person view has got to go, i hate it, i'd rather just have unmodified vehicles and such. this is the making of a great map but i suggest making it a little more confined in some areas rather than large open areas with nothing, it makes for more intense battles when you have a choke point. it's cool but wouldnt be much fun unless i had 8-16 people playing.

But it looks like you're off to a great (OMG UNDERSTATEMENT) start.

DRL333 · Post by **DRL333** » Tue Feb 20, 2007 6:33 pm

Awsome map, but I sometimes get lost in the bottom parts of the ship, though I can go three laps and win the match. My best record is 32 mins, the damn rocket launcher wielding combat forms ruin my progress sometimes.

I extracted that detail map from the flood and some other bitmaps just to see what they look like, i was really impressed with the textures but that flood detail eeeeeewww makes me want to puke. Looks great ingame though.

My statement at HPC still stands:
