Eggplant Map Pack Release

If you are currently wondering why you just downloaded a map pack named after a vegetable named after a egg then please don't worry. It's just the first thing that came too mind. None of the maps are in anyway related to eggplants.

This map pack contains the maps:
--- DM-Transcendence
--- CTF-Transcendence
--- DM-Cyclotron
--- DM-Harbinger


Some quick descriptions of the maps.

DM-Transcendence
Transcendence is a good DM map with tight close quarters combat in the center and nice ranged combat around the outer loops. This is the first map I have ever built with brushes and I think it turned out well though the map has a few issues ( the outer areas are not used very much in DM ) Overall the game play is good and players are given a high degree of mobility around the map. Allowing them to ambush there enemies at every corner.

CTF-Transcendence
In my opinion the CTF version of this map is better in most ways. I highly enjoyed the map and I found it wasn't IMPOSSIBLE to capture a flag but it was a challenge. Defensive sniping is the key to keeping your flag while a brute force rush through the underside of the map is your only way to get a capture. I prefer disabled translocaters on this map.





DM-Cyclotron
This is a port of the map Ivory Tower from halo 2. The map plays well in unreal and has lots of multi level combat which keeps it interesting. There is no flak canon on this map obviously. In beta we discovered that the person holding the flak always won. So we removed it for the sake of game play haha. Please note that there is a specular problem on this map. I wish I could fix it but the model is corrupted so I can't modify it at all.



DM-Harbinger
This is a sort of "re-imagining" of delta halo from halo 2. The model was done by snafubar then later revised by me for game play. I then unwrapped the map using textures from disaster, conscars, jean-luc and bungie. This map was originally planned for halo CE but I decided to make a unreal version as well. Game play wise this map is a sniper haven. Shock rifles and snipers will dominate the bridges while bio rifles and link guns will control the corner bases.





Merry Christmas Guys!

Seeing as how I can actually run UT3 now, I'll be happy to kill some bots on these maps.

UT3 isn't hard to run?



Also, the lighting looks pretty good in the delta halo one, but if your gunna put it in ut3, at least do some cool shader effects, or even material blending on the ground and such.

Looks cool though, checkin it out now.



Also, you should run it through UDK/lightmass for extra yummy. You'll have to open the uncooked version though, otherwise it'll crash.

Eh... keep in mind that you can only use the assets in the UDK that come with the UDK... which means Flak cannon and stuff are not available.

You have no idea how old my previous PC was.

My shaders on this map are ridiculously over complicated.

Although the menus are kinda slow, I can run UT3 at 1024x768 at high settings, even with this ancient comp (specs are up there ^)

but you still should run it with UDK's lightmass for extra epic lightingness

[Inferno]

Uh?

It would be a pain in the ass to move the maps to UDK just for lighting I'm sure.
