DESCRIPTION / EXCUSES:
Well here is my primary entry into the TAM mapping contest organize by 3SPN. This version is an evolution of an industrial theme I started earlier and then began to quickly feel like I was copying too many elements from other maps. So I added the top outdoors level and moved to an 'ancient-alien-jungle' theme. Unfortunately, one of my best friends called me the same day I started mapping this version almost two weeks ago and asked for help moving. I've not put more than about ten hours into this version. I hope it holds up for the first elimination.

well it LOOKS cool .... not sure how it plays though =)

[King Mango]

what didn't you like? I actually think it plays better than it looks lol
Like I mentioned in the description I added the top part and then have been unable to work much on it. The addition of the top part spreads the map out quite a bit and I DO have plans to connect it a bit better but I really had no time to work on it before entry deadline. TBH I'm a bit embarassed about releasing it. What's in my head is a much better map but it'll be a couple/few weeks before I can undertake any of the structural additions required to connect the different levels better.

lol sorry if i insulted you

not sure how it plays though =)

i mean i haven't played it yet, and even then i'm just a UT novice so i couldn't really be counted on for a valid oppion.

But i wanted to tell you it looks nice =)

[King Mango]

no worries m8. I've got elephant hide. Wasn't offended at all. The only thing that ever really gets me going is people who think it's fashionable to hate on the USA.
You can say whatever you want about my maps that's your right.
I'm sorry if my reply gave you the impression that I was ticked.
I was just curious what you thought could be changed.

Yeah, that stuff over at INA really pissed me off. I wanted to jump in, but it is useless over there. The only time I go there now, I'm lurking! I will try this one as soon as I get a chance, good luck on your entry bro!!
