Capture the Flag Other Storming Client Side Night

This is my first map. I know what you will all think when you play it. "He copied off of Hades". Well, I haden't even played that map when I made this one, so no, I didn't.

I wanted at first to make a sort of remake of Snowblind from Tribes 1. As you can see, it didn't really work out that way, but ended up a little like Snowblind mixed with Minotaur of Tribes 2. I like it and I think you will enjoy it.

In the future I will try to make server side maps, but it is much more difficult to do that than client side, let me tell you.

The flags are on top of the enemy's base, like in Snowblind, and the bases are an average distance apart.

Hope you like this, be sure to give appropriate feedback and send me any comments or suggestions. Thanks again.

Pisidian was the name of a city outside of Jerusalem during the Roman empire. I'm pretty sure it didn't look like this.

I have a question:

Why there is a message "cannot contact irc server" when playing offline???

And the spawngraph is wrong...

Cannot contact irc server? Well, I'd say that's your problem. I haven't had any other comments like that. If I get another one, I'll check it out. The only problem with the spawngraph is that when you go into observer mode from playing, it sets you right by your dead body. If I figure out how to fix that, I will, but I'm having problems with placing cameras. Anywho, if you have further problems let me know through email.

Place Cameras in the ObserverDrop folder, or else they wont work. the y-axis line (green one) is where they point, and make sure you have enough of them...

This map is fast pace with flags out in the open. The Action reminds me of Firestorm. There is an object to left of the base that looks like a sniper's perch, but when I land there, I fall through. Other than that, If you like fast pace games Check this out.

Okay, I'll let everyone in on that little secret about the sniper's perch. It was originally intended to be just that, but then something happened and I started falling through it. I was going to re-do it, then messed around with it and found out you could completely hide yourself in it. I thought this could be an interesting advantage for the cloaker, so I left it there. Not exactly professional, but I don't care.

Okay, I must admit, this map is not good. It fact, it sucks pretty badly. This was a learning experience for me, and I wasn't really trying to make the best map that I could. This is one of those "figuring out the editor" maps. I just released a new Siege map into Beta, so within a month or two it should be up. I am going to try and get it on rotation on the pond, a siege server, so check it out. If not that, you can always join up with the |beta| team and help us test it there.
