My first map ever. Mini-me style too.

[alto]

Very nice map! I'm geting ut3 for xmas, and I this will be the first custom map to dl. I love the xmas tree!

[vossy]

we need more christmas maps Out so thanks and i hope to see this on a server cause at the moment im only going on servers with custom mpas to try and help them get going and its working !

[ur-name-here]

Like the Room set up, and having to fire what looks like equall to a football field away to score. R U using stationary Boosts to jump, or Jump Boots? Being able to Jump onto furniture will be great.

Looks real Good!
Waiting for it!

[Raze.at]

Nice! Someday we'll be able to play warfare in your whole house ^^

[chaos667]

I like it) but the walls looks a little nude)

[FreEp]

They are "nude" in real-life too ;P I'll add more things on walls in next betas.

[jamima69]

LOVE the map-lots of fun. thanks for your hard work!

[karmatized]

um dude, looks nice, but dude that couch is horrific

[revel911]

um dude, looks nice, but dude that couch is horrific

That couch is pretty bad, the meat in the fridge ain't so hot either.

[FreEp]

Yeah, I know that, the couch is extremly ugly- I want to release this first beta BEFORE 24th, so I speedy a lot of things in this map. I will make new couch with more details on it :).
And remember- mini-me is about fun, no super-high-detail-couch :P

[BaYkT]

Indeed a fun map regardless of visuals. Gonna try this one on our Zark server w/ fast Trans.

NJ!

[FragTastic]

I think the flow of this map is a lot better than bedroom and think I will play it more accordingly, while everyone is having their lil whine about decor I dont like the green carpet lol. More importantly I am sorry to say but I think the music would become tedious fairly quickly. I think if you stick with this music, release a seperate version with no music, personally I think this will help with the maps lastability. Thank you for your labour I enjoyed your work :)

[Sharpshotoo7]

love playing this map on the internet with low-grav. and zark rifle

[leukoplast]

LOL @ the 360 on the TV. :rolleyes:

[Drudge-]

This map has got great potential I think
I like the fact that its huge
and the little holes in walls are a nice add
smart thinking to use the chinese lamps as chrismasdecoration ;)
keep it up

[Crux117]

need to get this cooked for ps3

[bigCman123]

And replace the 360 with a PS3. J/K Maybe just add it and leave the tv off.

[Ikioi]

Is it possible to make the TV screen glow? I've seen a lot of surfaces in the retail UT3 levels that glow, I think you could make that screen glow and it'd make it look a lot more real.

[FreEp]

Hello everybody :)
After X-mas time, I've returned to UnrealED. I know, that a lot of things in beta1 are extremly awful, but now I have time to work with them.
The orange sofa looks way better, bots are better now (still a lot to do with pathnodes :| ).
Now I am working with TV screen (yeah, it will glow!), I'll add more things on shelves, etc. In next week I'm going to release beta 2 (PC and PS3 version!) and I'm going to convert DM-Bedroom to PS3.

Oh, I'm going to delete music in FlatWars, or I add a music from Epic's Package...

CTF and VCTF versions of this map- soon as possible (after dm-flatwars beta2 tests)

[Grinchy]

^All of that is awesome news, can't wait!

[Cold_Killer]

Minor suggestion - :) Put a copy of UT3 under the Christmas tree.

[gtochad]

why is everyone's beginning maps look a billion times better than mine.... makes me depressed :(

downloaded it but cant find the "published" folder can anyone help?

[FreEp]

If you can;t find it- simply create all folders just like in the readme file :)

[gtochad]

I'd like to see an image of the now-glowing screen, I was thinking about a concept that might work with it if you didn't get satisfactory results this morning, heh.

Anyways, looks really nice, and thanks for the beta 1 PS3 cook, I'll be trying it out soon.

It ran flawless for me on PS3. No problems at all (Except for the XB360 stuff, should have been replaced with PS3 lol). The bots are much more active this time around too. Much thanks ;)

:)

Thanks! I'm in shock, becouse I read somewhere, that we can't cook custom StaticMeshes to PS3. I'm so happy now :)

[l33t_killa]

I'm looking forward to the VDM, CTF and VCTF versions of this map too, if your still planning on doing these that is :)

[FreEp]

After releasing final version of DM-FlatWars, I'm going to make VDM, CTF and VCTF versions of this map :)

[mitran]

nice ill dl for ps3 now thank u love the other maps u have done

[mitran]

and yeah save up 2 a ps3 so u can ad some ps3 stuff lol

[Vlach]

What are the chances of a destructible TV, if you're going to put that filth on it ;)

[DREAD]

This map works great on PS3, lots of fun with jetpack and uberboard and the vCTF version should be awesome. The only hitch I saw was one heath pack and one sniper under the couch( near the wall outlet) was inside the couch leg a little bit and you can't get to them. Thanks for a great map

[FreEp]

Thanks Dread- I was playing FlatWars yesterday with my friends, and we found this bug (sniper and health under couch) too :)

FlatWars is very funny with Xmas Presents and Uberboard mutator :)

[Herby]

Amazing map, FreEp looking forward to the final version. It runs awesome on the PS3.
Thanks

[iureka]

GGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRR in the PS3 version (idk if anyone else has said this yet but my laptop is about to die, so i didn't read other posts) i was online in the room "Herbyg: UT3MOD.COM - Dedicated Server" for the remainder of the current roound is fine but when the next mach starts all the weapon spawners are GONE excepct for the ammo next to were they should be and the yellow glowing light source. i have to leave and join again in order to have a sniper rifle!

my my mistake after i started ut3 the next day and the map played properly.

[Larry L]

This is a really cool map. Again, no problems on the PS3 at all. I thought filling my screen with the tree would drop the FPS since those are the same type of animated tree used in Bunker, which slows down the PS3 big time. Here's my only request. That you either ditch the 360 for a PS3, or what would be even cooler if it's possible, is keep it a 360, but if someone hits it with a direct hit from the redeemer it gets destroyed and PLAYSTATION 3 goes up on the screen. That would be a great easter egg for the PS3 fans that have dealt with over 2 years of flames on the internet from the 360 kids LOL

[BigJonStudd]

I second Larry L. That's a really cool idea Larry... with the Redeemer and all.

[realun]

I Love You.
I just got this map and i have to say it's my new favorite map. It's MASSIVE GINORMOUS and so much exploring to do. Before this map came out on ps3 bathroom was my favorite map, but this is better. You even have it similar to bathroom like the redeemer on the lamp so i love it more. Thank you very freaking much for this map!

[-Rob-]

Great map, runs great on my ps3. One thing: you can't go in half of the cups, and the following objects could use some improvment:
-flatish meat on plates.
-cheese in fridge. (It looks like cardboard...)
-forks (Just change the models so they're a bit less... square.)
-the single square cushion beside the couch has glitchy collisions. (if you start from one side, you cant walk across without jumping, and in that part you are halfway inside the cushion...)

Overall, an awesome map. Keep these mini-me maps coming!

[FreEp]

Thanks for the support!

Rob, I'll gonna fix this things. The biggest problem with this map for me is... the size :). It's so HUGE, and fixing / making it is time-killer ;)

I'm gonna release beta 3 in next week. Maybe this version will be gold beta :)

[ur-name-here]

FreEp

Anyway you could put the PC download on another site.
Been tring all weekend and drops downs to 30kb real quick.

thnx

Ive tried in past too seems to be same problem.

[middlemaniac]

this is awesome, i love maps like this, just make the graphics a little better if you can

[slartybardfarst]

This map is great ,did you do maps before like years ago for UT? I loved these kinda maps then but your maps (mini me) are the coolest yet. I hope you make more like this.
A wild west bar setting would be fun as a mini me.
Thanks for the work you put into these man. Im a PS3 user,my pc is to old for this but im getting a laptop soon and will be making a Stargate map...your welcome to input if you wish.

[HO0815XX]

1. I love these >GiantMaps< since UT99 !!!!

2. If you have trouble with the Christmastree.... knock it out.... Christmas is over (for this season). You can place a little Glasstable or so, that hold the Healthvials.

3.
this is awesome, i love maps like this, just make the graphics a little better if you can
The graphics are ok, it runs very smooth on my >Lowend PC<

[Grinchy]

Wow this looks really good, how have I missed out on the newly updated version!?

Downloading now. I loved the first version so I already know I'll love the second. You've done a great job on this map!

[Gamefreak054]

Really fun map its a cool map but i do like the more serious maps. This is very fun on multi team death match.

[FreEp]

Some kind of teaser image from beta3. As you can see from this image, I'm hard working on it, and I'll finish beta3 in next week.

Pans, eggs, a lot of StaticMeshes :) And nice, detailed fork :D:

I'm gonna make more rat-halls and fix all problems (collision on sofa, bots, etc.)

Stay tuned :)

[Grinchy]

lol you are crazy, but it's so good...

[slartybardfarst]

Cool,looking even better. Can you make the xbox 360 flash the red ring of death please,makes it more realistic lol. Are you still going to fix the texture on the toothpaste/tissue box and toilet on the Bathroom map also?

[FreEp]

I'm the author of DM-Bedroom and DM-FlatWars. Map DM-Bathroom isn't mine (and this map is a remake of old ut99 map- my maps aren't remakes!) !

[FreEp]

I've made better collision for sofa ("per-poly collision") and add a lot of Blocking Volumes- now collision is almost perfect :D
New Rat-Holes are almost finished, same as dishes, forks, etc.

Now I will work with bot paths, add more weapons, etc. and new beta 3 (in my opinion last beta before final release) will arrive in next week :).

[FreEp]

Beta 3 is finished!

I've been wanting to download this map for along time, but that site u have it on takes about a miniute to download then while downloading drops to 30-40 kbs.
Anyway you could add to another site?

I do not like to feel I still use dialup. lol

Seriously; that site really sucks.

Ur-name-here, I send you private message. Check it out :)

[HO0815XX]

YES ! This Map rocks !!! I've tested it with 16 Bots in several matches, and I must say, this is one of GiantMaps, that I never forget ! :D

>Edit<

And now I play it again, again ..... agai....... and so on .....

[middlemaniac]

Thank you so much for these maps!! Im a ps3 owner and love that u support us! Keep up the good work!

[dcy4pres]

Awesome, d/ling now for ps3!!! Love this map!!!

[FreEp]

I'm really hard working on the final version and it should be finished soon!
I added a postprocess effect to all level (very gently of 'course) and... the cooker is open now! :D

I have some problems with editor- when I'm building full quality light it is crashing :/.

Stay tuned- full version is coming quickly! :)
