fy_caerla

There are other good fy_ maps on the map vault.

Regarding our conversation on IRC, not everyone is a noob like Mirasa here. There are VERY good mappers here, and you shouldn't judge the quality of this site by one crappy fy map you saw.

On the map:

This looks very nice, I'll D/L it when I'm at my main computer.

Why not upload the DE version of this map?

Its ment for ~4vs4
Thats why there arent that many weapons.

In most of the fy_ maps have weapons at the spawn for what reason? When i play fy_ map i dont even bother moving because i already have a good weapon. I just wait for people to come and get me.
In this i broke the "pattern". I placed weapons "randomly".
I wanted the players to fight for better weapons. Also the better weapons are pulling the players off the spawn like an objective.
It propably would've worked better if the map would've been bigger...

I thought about adding a route thru the building but there wasnt really time for that. I also didnt have time to optimize the map. ~1700 r_speeds in ct spawn.

There are few problems with the lighting. The lamp textures doesnt emit light, the lights are too bright and then theres that green area in the lighting because of the engine.

"Well the league stages of the 2on2 competition are now over and we move into the knockout stages which will be played after boomy comes back off his hols!!

We had some excellent games during the league's and some funny highlights like Pacman grenading Joel, Players hunting the mysteriously placed M4 & Ak of fy_caerla (the best matches came out of this unusal map), Iain grenading Hybrid & Abit in the house on de_backalley, we had some very close fought games."

Why was there a 2 day time limit?
looks nice.

well... i rated some maps in fpsbanana (~1-3/10). most of those were remakes and fullbright dust textured aim maps with couple of boxes etc.

someone pm'd me and said something that he worked on his map for 2 days and i rated it ~2/10 etc. then he said that i have 2 days to make better map.

usually i dont make maps when some1 says something like that but i thought that maybe i should give those people an example. so i wasted the same amount of time planning and mapping this.

well.. at least in my opinion this is better than fullbright dust textured box with couple of spawns and weapons.

this map has been used couple of times as an example of what fy_ map should look like. ~

woa...woa. It looks like a decent map from the screenshot. I'll be definetly giving this map a try later.

From the picture, It looks good, but I don't like fy maps. 7MB! Some big de_ maps are smaller.
