MML_Moria is almost at FP...

Don’t expect screenshots for a few days, since I’m compiling and testing, but here’s the current map layout and a few pointers of what to expect for now:


Here’s the key:
1 - Axis West gate spawn, start of game.
2 - Axis Mines spawn, captured by simply getting a player past this point.
3 - Axis Mid-mines flag spawn, captured by flag.
4 - Axis passageways spawn, captured by blowing the wall at (A)
5 - Axis Hall Entrance spawn, captured by flag.
6 - Axis Tomb of Balin spawn, captured by flag.
7 - (Yes I coloured it wrong, should be red!) Axis final spawn, captured by blowing the door here.

1 - Allies West gate spawn, start of game (note only for the first wave of spawns, after this you spawn at 2).
2 - Allies shrine of Aule spawn. Lose this when the wall at (A) is blown.
3 - Allies Main Halls flag spawn, axis can clear the flag here.
4 - Allies Main Halls spawn. Lost when the door at (7) is blown.
5 - Allies final spawn.

A - Rock wall blocking progress. Dynamite.
B - One way route out for Allies to attack Axis.

Slow progress eh?
I also am planning to convert the maps to quake wars when the game comes out, so I won’t completely waste the last god knows how many years of slow mapping!

Good to see that you’re still continuing on this map.

Zomg nice, thats massive.

Everything looks so square, I would have expected more twisted tunnles like in the end of your helm’s deep.

Now all we’d need for ET:QW is a medieval mod to play it in real LOTR style. :smiley:

when you consider how much longer tunnels take to make we would still be waiting for this next year

u can have square rooms and you can have SQUARE rooms (get my drift ?)

I agree, but then given this will be a FP with only the crudest of layouts, I’m hardly worried.
But yes, once I get into the meat of it, it won’t be so angular - as you have noticed from HD (and MT, which doesn’t have a straight edge in it!) I’m not a fan of blocky simple maps, but grant me the time to get the basics done, and then I can work on the graphical niceties :smiley:

Yeah, cool, thats how I work too. :>
Except I prolly dont go far enough from the blockyness :stuck_out_tongue:
