date: 6/8/99        


time to create map:  3  hours 
( i am not an unrealed expert.)


Mapname : 
DMUTVampireFortressArenapart2

this map is inspired by the quake 1!
I love Rocket deathmatches





note put map in
C:/unreal/maps

type of map: deathmatch only 2-5  people. ( most servers
on the net only have 2-<8 on them!)
 bots do not like the catwalks!! i tested it!

(+70% of the servers for all games have only 
3-<12 people on them.) 

Maps that are too big and or have too much eyecandy are no fun  to play in dm. :(

All mod authors of tcs or ctf makers:  u are allowed to modify this map and use it and redistrube it freely!!! just keep it at dark or it will look like shit! 


note: if u recompile  it, remember bsp tab and checkmark the autolight to keep the lighting intact or
it will mess up the lights and make the map look bad.

this is a small and lighting fast deathmatchmap

my map pack is called 

unrealgothicmapak u can download it at nalicity

check out the ratings  click on the number 6.

the best map of that pack is 
dmvampirefortressarena part 1 which is rated an 8
 ( from 1-10 ) it is similar to this map.

Also check out DMUTDevilsTournamentArena
 
 DMUTAlienNuclearReactor and dmvampirefortressarenapart1
 
Also use this for unreal tournament. yes tim said all of the maps are foward and backward compatiable! 

Purpose :
Most maps made are  best with 8-16 people( they are too big for deathmatch). Most servers on the
net have 3- <10 people on them.  sometimes even teamfortresss, thunderwalker, and loki have too few people on them many times. for those maps u need 10-20+ pple or the game will be slow. :(


multiplayers number: 2-5 is perfect

botsupport: nodes not are in place! 
  (3-8 bots do not like the catwalks.)

compile time: 30 sec  approx

map name: DMUTVampireFortressArenapart2

why? too many maps are too big and no fun!
wickedmanison would be great in single player
or team multiplayer with 12+ people.
it is too big for lighting fast/fun dm.

health is not added to my maps because it
creates large gap in frags between high pingers
and low pingers and also between normal players
and great players. Brian Hook and tresh wrote about this.

map size:  680 kb

map requirements: 
 
233mmx pent and 96 ram. raw mininum!

A +400 pent II/III with +128 ram and tnt card is great!


design goal: map was made for death match 
(2-5 people!!! people for a frag fest!!!)

to all mod authors ! u can modifly this map and use it freely
just leave this read me intact and also keep the map at dark! and email me thanks.

warning: if u add to much to the map it makes it slow!!!
i deleted a bunch of stuff to speed up the map. 
decorations are nice but deathmatch speed is what
is in for me.






Mistakes made:  some brush alignment problems
  
note: this is my  8th ? 9th?  map ever released!

I only have <100 hours of unrealed experience.




Since i am learning , i think maps should look good but should also be minimalist for fast play.


future maps:  secret!
when the new unrealed comes out it will be less buggy!
