[gamemasterjustin]

awesome man you got the first one up. too bad I'm custum making my level with original assets or I would have. oh well DLed your map so when are people going to be playing it?

-game

[gamemasterjustin]

hey man no offense but I think you should put this in the beta testing section you need to make sure it is working correctly.

the lighting is a little dark I know that you are going for that really cool dramatic lighting and you did a good job but the level as a whole is a bit dark.

so far I saw that you have that LOD issue. I think it is a problem on epics side I hope that they look into it.

also the top floor has no cover. I would suggest that you turn some of the benches so you can hid behind them as you cross over.

other than that I will have to actually play the map to see if there are any other problems.

good job man looks like a cool map to play.

The stage side is really dark but I meant it to be that way snipers would have more difficulty sniping people down there. Thanks for the top floor cover thing, didn't notice that actually.

[Trond]

Thanks Darth Axel 007.
I'm downloading it now.
Anyone want to play it with me?
My GamerTag is: Trond

Edit:
So every map you download needs to have some files named the same thing in WarGame/Published/CookedPC.
How will that work when you have many maps?

[Ultrimo]

53 mb?! That'll take insanely long for people to download off you!

[SuperMoD]

Nice i played the map and i like it , need more players to support our map makers, download and play it!!!! well send me a message to play this map and cold heart which is under beta releases.

[Trond]

Yes this one should be in the Beta forum.
I have been playing it a lot now.
And there are some bugs in it.
Sometimes there is a strange black thing at the granade point that needs to be fixed.
And there is something wrong with the high detail textures.
Many of the walls only have high detail textures when you stand right next to them.
And it would be nice if it was posible to walk in the middle of all the seats.
And you cant hide behind them so there is almost nowhere to hide up there.

Other then that this map is good.
So you should look into fixing some of that.

Anyway keep up the good work Darth Axel 007.
Looking forward to more of your maps.

1. Well that's the system epic wants so you have to replace them I guess.

2. You have to make one in your maps folder under published.

Great map Darth Axel 007, i've played this map with some friends yesterday.
As the other guys said.. we need cover on the top floor and be able to walk in the middle of all the seats. Also all high detail textures load only when we are close to them(maybe if i change post-processing from default to intense it's gonna fix this). If you could add some ambient sound too we have a solid map ^^

This is my gamertag if anyone wants to play this map:Tarantino Oo

Is there a way to test a map without having anyone join? Because everytime it says at least 2 ppl need to be in server to play.

[Darth Axel 007]

I can't fix the shader issue, Epic hasn't responded and it seems like all custom maps downloaded have low res mapping for epic meshes.

Open it in the editor and click test map, top right corner somewhere.

[savov]

[BrendanL]

Great! Now I just need to see if I won the Intel PC from a contest, and if I did, see if it's capable of running Gears of War, and if it is, buy Gears of War, then download this then play the map. :P

[SnakEyes]

[Rasstar]

The map worked fine but I have a question. if I am hosting this map will other players be able to download it directly from the server?

Are maps the only mods possible for this game?

No they can't download it directly, and maps are apparently the only mods that one can do. All thanks to Epic limiting us because they want UT3 for modding. You can do simple things like create gametypes with kismet, but full conversion mods are almost impossible currently.

[SnakEyes]

Thanks darth i mannage to test the map, its pretty cool, cant wait what surprises you have in store in the future.. keep up the good work. fyi when you host online the way i host is the same what you instructed me.. use the console and type " open mp_lost_arts". but it wont work anyway cuz the other players dont have the map.

thanks a lot ..

That's not how you host it, that is if you wanted to test it alone.

[Mr Servon]

I think this is one of the best map i have seen:cool:

[killercypriot]

I dont have this map YET but from the screenshots it looks like it could be made into 1 sickass SP map.:cool:

[Phayte]

From the screenshots it looks more like a ut map. ADD COVER

[killercypriot]
