[RELEASE] orb battle


(stealth6) #1

My latest map:

Orb battle
Welcome to the abyss, when developing a new technology the axis stumbled upon a teleporter that brought them to the abyss. The abyss is a black universe where the ‘ancients’ used to battle
In this arena the aim is to capture and hold the Orb for as long as possible, the team with the most points when the timer runs out wins!

I had a run on it. Cool stuff. Q3 style fighting.

Textures are quake3 ofc… :stuck_out_tongue: Mostly at least

Style is 100% quake3 though ;p

Anyways, nice place to noob around with TJ as well! :smiley: :stuck_out_tongue:

Ehr, you do know that its illegal to use Q3 textures in a W:ET map, right?
But I guess not too many people will actually care…

It looks like a wacky map when using W:ETs weapons.


(stealth6) #10

well how can I know they are from q3?
I found them in other ET maps :S


(Dinius) #11

I can’t believe you never knew that it was q3… If u have a look at the “buildup” of some q3 maps, its exactly the same idea as this… Even if u dont did it on purpose you’re bound to have seen it in some movie or something… Can’t just be a fluke :stuck_out_tongue:


(macbeth) #12

Marko dont do the same using Q3 textures for his map Mlb Starbase?
so why Stealth will be not authorized ?

Hola Stealth,

shame on me i did not test it yet (slaps himself). The pictures looks really like fun dude, i will test it tonite and ask what mr yadanowski ( :wink: ) thinks but it looks like tons of fun :smiley: Very nice dude, compliments and especially you’d never played Quake3 :slight_smile:

Groetjes :wink:
Thorsten.


(isbowhten) #14

really nice textures and animations ^^ lol, when i saw the medipack… O_O


(stealth6) #15

animated guns?

@dutchman: tsss till didn’t test it! I hope the slap hurt :smiley:


(isbowhten) #16

[QUOTE=stealth6;177712]animated guns?

@dutchman: tsss till didn’t test it! I hope the slap hurt :D[/QUOTE]

Yes, slapping was very intensive :wink:

BTW, if you got time you should try OpenArena, its a free Quake3 Clone :slight_smile:
(Joint irc and i show you our server, really nice CTF/DM Maps :slight_smile: )) Good to learn Q3 style maps if you don’t have a own Quake 3 copy :slight_smile:
