Ideas on some DM maps

[OttoBohn]

We have a pretty good voting plugin (grab the mapchooser.smx from disabled dir in /addons/sourcemod/plugins/disabled/) and that seems to work out for us very well. DM Timer is good too because it forces the map to change for us. works well!

The best maps are ones that people give positive feedback on. Hang-em high is totally cool. We like to run regular maps, but a different version such as de_dust2_night. The FPS stays high, but people aren't bummed out that it's a regular map. cs_office_night_final really makes people comfortable with a stock map, but it's nighttime! Makes them feel like they're playing a new map. A new favorite for NS players has been de_inferno_fog. It's like 1.6 for source! People totally dig it and it's high FPS!

I will remake dm_bloodbath so it doesn't have the broken spawn and it isn't horrendously dark. That map would have been amazing otherwise... It had just about as much carnage as poolday, and you could rifle, awp, or smg depending on the areas you went around in.

All CAL/CEVO Maps should be put on the DM rotation.

IMO a bunch of CAL maps would suck for DM... Aztec? Come on... D:

Double Post, but I remade dm_bloodbath... For those who don't remember, it was that small indoor map, but it was so dark you needed night vision. It was pretty fucking insane though.

Okay, here's my remake:







I mostly just re-textured the map and gave it more lighting. I also added a couple extra halls, just for fun. Otherwise it's pretty-much the same map.

lets see what the regs have to say on that one nat.... looks better with some light tho i must admit

[Natalya]

Forgot to add a pic of one of the new halls...



They just run along two of the sides of the map.



And this is the map from above:



Except for some reason the stairs and elevated portions on the sides didn't get rendered here so wutev i fail at screen shots.

Thank god for the bloodbath light remix I was bringing night lights in there, but people would nade them.

Bloodbath might actually be cool, Bloodbath used to be an automatic map change due too the no light

[Natalya]

Yeah the original is still on the server just removed from rotation.

Looks like a fun Map. Good Job.

[enderless]

just be sure to fully highlight the areas at the top of each step. lol noobs like to camp there, where it's dark (it doesn't work too well )

[Natalya]

Yeah it's still not the brightest map, but everything has good visibility.
