CTF-GrendelKeep3 - Release

[jayoplus]

Hello everyone,
I made a remake to the UT2K4 CTF-GrendelKeep map for UT3.
I had the people over at unrealna play test for me until final release.

FYI, this is my first map ever .
Thanks to oMLeTTe for answering my many questions and the people at #unrealed (QNet), very helpful.

Wow, certainly put a more modern twist from the 2k4 version. Looks really nice. Good job.

I know gameplay>looks but.. The textures are so miss-aligned in this one I get sea sick. :/

[Fuzz2k7]

How cute. Number 3 you say. Never mind, already downloaded it. Trying it soon.

[Bret Hart]

I see many mis-aligned textures and lighting could be better. It has potential.

[Party Boy]

It's time of new meshes . . .

good job... i found this online at a server earlier today; tried DESPERATLY to move the map from cache to published <no luck there> till i found unrealna...bingo, map went from beta to final. the perches about the flag are new?.... it's a nice homage to the original mapper, game play and feel are identical! i'm looking forward to some of your original designs.

Any chance of DM-Grendellkeep?

[Madmanxan]

i dont remember playing this map on UT2004

[3leggedFreak]

It was there, but brown.

[Mr.UglyPants]

I preferred it as Deathmatch. I'm with Dribler, DM version needed!

I think the structure of the map itself was well done. It was a very nice reproduction. However, I have a big gripe with this map and I hope you will not think this is overly critical because I think the map itself was well done. Yes, there are some textures that probably need to be adjusted and I think the bot-pathing is off. That's not it, though. It's the choice of textures. If you are going to remake something (especially a stock map) you should keep at least somewhat to the original atmosphere. Going from a medieval keep to a space station is a pretty big leep; big enough to suggest a change in title, maybe GrendelStation? Simply put, your remake, although mostly well done ... is not a keep. Sorry if that is too nit-picky. Otherwise I say nice job!
