Are you using the sky I used in my Dark Zone remake? How did you get lighting on the surface, I have trouble with this shader.

Nice idea, althoug the four walls in the atrium might be an obstacle if they are that big?Did you also find the super mario quake 3 skin?http://ioquake3.org/extras/models/

GtkRadiant. in baseq3/scripts folder located file shaderlist.txt Open it and type dm6 at the bottom

About second Mario's picture. Avoid 2 mutch cirkles and curve walls. This will affect on bot movements. Bots like more stright and parallel terrains

I would do the main open circle in the middele and 4 rooms around them, connect the rooms with tubes to the circle, not sure to interconnect the rooms sideways, because you have to end up in the Atrium for fast paced killing.
You know q3dm6, there is an atrium. look at it like the atrium is a bit bigger and also like q3dm6 you can go up the stairs where the plasma is and go to the wider circle of the atrium which is partially on the roof of the smaller rooms. Put some glass walls on this level so there is something to see but you can still hide from instagib. Make 2 or 4 jumppads in the atrium to get up the bigger circle, put the 4 spawnpoints and some weapons inside the rooms and I think you have a map that just needs some decorations and artwork to finish. Maybe a curved roof to guide multi-jumpers and an open sky for the view, some videoscreens for the artwork.
I made a pain sketch to clear it up. The size is off, but just about the idea. What do you think?


I have seen bots work great in maps like http://lvlworld.com/review.php?id=1310 , so curves can work?! Also who still play's against bots anymore?

No, I'm having trouble with a sky shader, it's not giving off light like it's supposed to. I'm using this shader:

textures/skies/hellskyteam
{
surfaceparm noimpact
surfaceparm nolightmap
surfaceparm sky

q3map_sun 5 3 6 40 80 70
q3map_surfacelight 45

skyparms - 512 -
//sky env/hell2
//cloudparms 512 full
//lightning
{
map textures/skies/dimclouds.tga
tcMod scroll 0.1 0.1
tcMod scale 3 2
depthWrite
}
{
map textures/skies/redcloudsa.tga
blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ONE
tcMod scroll 0.05 0.05
tcMod scale 3 3
}
}
//{
//map env/redcloudsa.tga
//blendfunc GL_ONE GL_ONE
//tcMod scroll 0.05 0
//tcMod scale 2 2
//
//}
//
//{
//map env/redclouds.tga
//blendfunc GL_ONE GL_SRC_COLOR
//tcMod scroll 0.05 0.05
//tcMod scale 1 1
//}
//}

Can someone help?

Yes, it is based on the same concept, but just optimized. I played that one 5 years ago with my ex. Man that was a good starter, but I lost that map. Thanks, now i have it again http://lvlworld.com/review.php?id=1112 . But still, I think you need the rooms, stairs and glass for rocket and face to face gaming. Also Octagon looks awfull and the artwork is wrong positioned and just copy pasted form q3.

I think my idea is a nice optimization of this kind of arena based gaming... In quake 3 you are a gladiator right? To bad I can't make maps myself yet...
