Hello, during my spare time I created a small map. Its suitable for 1v1 or 2v2. I put it in beta because I would like to improve it and the only way I can do that is by reciving feedback.
I give promission If anyone wants to use it for their mod or whatever.

Nicely made, many people's maps just looks too man made, pure walls and factitious texture mixture between objects, reminds me old doom 2 level, but your first one although not very complicated, looks natural, objects are well placed, if it's a little bigger, more room for cover running alongside the marge area, just a little brighter, add more cover spot and few bots with lancer, then it'll become a good bloody arena for some frag fun...

I would make a lance version, but there is no tutorial how to place it in there. There was a Lance 2 tutorial @ Moddb but thats been taken off.

If double the map size, simply add some bots, then it's also good enough, like a little Horde, Lance 2 death match is better, i think JUGGER knows how to make, also those who made maps for Lance 2 before, but they are gone. Anyway, you made a map with almost perfect brightness, we can see the detail everywhere clear, that's the key point for gameplay.

Lance gold on moddb is the newest version, beautiful UI but no more DM gameplay, the bots got limited life, you can revive bots ,but when teammates and enemies life used up, they disappear, made the battle ended soon and not very hot till the end, also AI can evade from chainsaw, so feels less fun than lance 2. In lance 2, it's always 6 vs 6, tough battle, but in Gold, it's N vs 1 finally.
Lance gold is a nice move and i always respect kantham's work, but after play 2 years all kinds of bot maps, i can say lance 2 and Horde proved to be the best type for bot maps. People want long hot battle, that's why Epic adds 50 wave Horde mode for Gears 2.

If a mapper can make a lance 2 map, he can do it without any trouble, but do not change the original lance gamepack.upk and add new feature, etc, just make your own map into lance or others' map with permission to convert, since the lance mod copyright belongs to Kantham.

didnt know Kantham put copyright on it, I'm skipping that then lol. Sticking 50 wretchs and a turret ok? lol

Anyway I'm having some problems with the Ai going up and coming down ladders. If a drown does use the ladder it become stuck by continusly repeating the ladder animation, going up and down the ladder. Ive tried a trigger delay in kismit but that doesn't work

No, you can convert your own map into lance 2 as you like, but don't change the core part of the mod, and if you want to convert others' maps, the original author should give permission first, that's all, lol...

About this map, no wretches man, just locust plz, we love bot death match more.
