Holy Grail release

(BlitzZ) #1

Hi just finished my map called Holy Grail, its the first release, a final will be released after bug findings :=

its my second map or my first real release, so give me feedback plz!

INFO - When Steven Spielberg made a movie about an intrepid archaeologists
fight to keep a precious and powerful artifact (the Holy Grail) out of the hands of the Nazis,
it was not widely known that the tale was based on truth.
There really was a Nazi archaeological unit and it did send teams across the world to try to find
the Grail.

An Axis archeology team has according to Allied intelligence found the Grail
in a hidden temple in Venezuela, as the Axis wait on proper transport for the Grail,
the Allied has send a squad to steal the Grail!

Venezuela? I know they searched some areas in France where they were suspecting holy reliquiae, and believe it or not, they really were seaching for the lost arc too.

Some pics of your map would be nice :smiley:

Nice map :slight_smile: good objective… but missing one texture, called… crypt_fog. thats only near allied spawn area… and one other problem, i dont know where half of these shadows are coming from… and light coming through the walls… Other then that… great job… keep working on it.

hmm strange that you are missing it i am able to see it (the texture) with a clean ET a friend also see it with a clean ET, the shadows is prolly the fog appearing in long distance?
light throug the wall? you mean through the windows?

edit:ok see what you mean, i made this map so it would look good in etcfg (defult)
if you tamper with your cfg you prolly tweek the “look good settings” so gamma and stuff is different, i cant make it look the same for everyone, thx for the info, i will prolly change the view hint in the final release.

btw my fps is good on this map!

Hi! I am an admin for my clan called <BT>Black Talon. I’m the one who finds new maps, tests them out and then shows the clan the map if its cool, plus other friendly clans of ours come over to test it. I downloaded Holy_Grail the other day, and we uploaded it and gave it a try. It went over very well!! We rotate a lot of maps and here is what the guys at <BT> have to say:

  1. Divided up well for a small map, basically two ways in once the flag is taken
  2. The brush and trees are great… few maps are out there where you can crawl around and hide
  3. Noises are great
    Things we would change:
  4. Those shaders need fixed back by the Allied Spawn, the grey shadows don’t seem right, someone else answered this though above.
  5. In certain areas a Field Ops airstrike can and grenades either just disappear or get stuck? We were throwing airstrike cans at certain spots and they disappeared? I remember another map where that happened in an alpha stage… hmm… can’t remember which map

Thats all! We like it a lot… PLEASE post once you have shaders fixed plus anything else you change, we want to add it to a small map campaign we have… but want to wait until yoru done! Hopefully soon??? THANKS
Our IP is: 66.55.150.105:27960 If your ever by, we run the map by itself often with rawbeta and NOTW_final
