Skins, Models and Maps / Re: Campgrounds, Blood Run improvements
« on: August 26, 2020, 06:16:05 AM »
Around 2016/2017 I came back to Q2 after about a 15-year break, and I spent a few months scouring the web for high quality maps/mods/whatever.  Your maps are not only some of the best, but also just about the final "great" maps released for Q2.  If a post like this asking for feedback can go with no reply for 2+ months, then I guess Q2 is just about dead.  :bigcry:

About the only thing I'd suggest for Blood Run & Campgrounds would be to make them more manageable for Gladiator bots since that's how I usually play now.  Most jump pads are not their friends, but there's some that they can navigate just fine for some reason.

Have you considered making a CTF map?  I never played Q1 CTF, and I'm not sure which Q3 maps would be good candidates considering they lacked the grapple.  But Japanese Castles (most famous in Q3, but originally a Q2 L-Fire map) is a good example of level design that can accommodate both play styles with a few tweaks.

Skins, Models and Maps / fact3 (aka "Sudden Death") Tourney & CTF
« on: August 26, 2020, 06:03:18 AM »
I always thought that fact3 (aka "Sudden Death") had a really interesting layout for DM but really horrible item placement.  Attached to this post are an entity file that changes the item layout of the level to resemble q3tourney2, and a CTF conversion that places the flags in the lava-trap and turns the trigger-room into a defensive bunker.  At one point I had hoped to alter the CTF map to be Gladiator bot-friendly but that would require changing too much of the character of the original level.
