May 23rd, 2009 - General Update (No Pix)

[DysPatch]

Well, I decided to make this journal post just to let you guys know whats been going on with my maps.

TC_Rubble has recently undergone some HUGE changes, both in layout and visually. You will see those updates in a future map showcase, but I don't want to spoil the fun. I will tell you that the latest layout change has been the addition of a second TC point in the opposite corner of the warehouse. The testers have already found it to be a nice addition.

PS_Snowstorm has gone some minor tweaks and fixes, but thats about it. The map itself is turning out to be pretty solid. All that is left is a bug fix here and there and some modifications to the 3D Skybox.

TC_Iwojima has had HUGE-- nah jk its the same.

So, keep checking the news updates, as there probably will be a Rubble Showcase in the future.

There wasn't a warehouse in the original Rubble as far as I recall; is this an extended version of Rubble? (the old one was pretty small)

There was 1 TC point in the original. It was right by the catwalk that had the airstrikes called on it.



You can barely see it top right of this photo.

Where is this Warehouse? I know one team starts in some sort of building and the other team starts in some bunkers outside a church. I just wanna' know if the map is bigger now - or is it a secret
Sorry for all the questions I'm just full of excitement and anticipation I can't hold it much longer! oh noes!

There was a warehouse in the old rubble. Out of the blue spawn, you turn right, remember? There is that broken walls; one end of it has a mounted machine gun, the other side of the broken wall has a little broken tower thing you can get into.

And remember the building on the other side of that wall? The one that is somewhat L-shaped with some boxes in it? And where teams called in a airstrike, the area around that building exploded? That's the warehouse!

It's pretty small, so if you don't pay attention to the TC popup, its hard to distinguish it from any other building.


DysPatch, is the new building - in reference to the old FA tc_rubble - in that area where the dead end tunnel was and un-enter-able building is?

[Sterling Morrison]

Oh right right! Yes, now I'm all calibrated.

Yeppers. Its more near the dead end tunnel.

Good to hear, the old rubble was pretty lopsided in where people fought.

[StealthSilver]

Teh new rubble is puurdy! :P

[DeShock]

Yes it is.

[Isis]

Is the air strike still in?

[Inveramsay]

it is indeed, and it looks prettier this time around.

[Isis]

Does it have planes fly by overhead? Like in the 3d sky box?

[ANCIENT_SUMERIAN]

at least he didn't forget the cubemaps this time
