Howl of the Yeti by Lexor on August 10, 2001

Capture and Hold Capture the Flag Other Storming

The Bioderms invented a system to absorb the power right from
a planet's life systems. This planet used to be a lush forest,
and now look at the carnage.

But this machinery has a reverse switch.

Control the Planetsucker complex and you can save this planet!

Howl of the Yeti is a "melee" CTF and CnH map, with both teams' bases very close together, and surrounding a center objective building.

The map was inspired by the amazing colours and sharpness of my new Samsung 570V TFT display.

Thanks to clan +|TBF|+ for testing. Dedicated to the Tribes2Maps.com
community and all former Dynamix employees.

Tested on the Shifter mod for T2 but works great with any mod.

One thing I forgot to mention, I left-out the bot support because I just couldn't get them to behave. Seems the bots don't understand forecefields... it turned into an intergalactic kegger, they would just sit around having brews :) I even tried tweaking 'em but no luck, sorry.

This was one of the best maps i have ever tested! The game play is great and forces u to work as a team at all times. Also this map is great eyecandy u will be blown away when u first enter this world that Lexor has created. Nice one Lex. And i hope to see more maps like this.

Jedi runs the biggest Shifter server right now and when I played Howl on his server with 40 players, it went about 2 fps for me... guess the bases are too close for some situations, but it was still a blast to play and was a close game (nobody was complaining but me :p) I appreciate the reviews gents !! keep 'em coming :)

Author's update, I upgraded my PC recently and the map played fine on Jedi's =H|C=Parthenon. However there are still others that have bad fps so I still recommend the map for smaller (=24) servers.
