Story:
------------------------------------------------------------
After years of fighting the contestants were getting more and more bored. They tried out every new place they've found, they even tried to create some new ones... But this didn't help either. Until one day - one of them found this island. First it was fun. But after some time the fighters were getting too comfortable, they didn't accept that this island belongs to every one of them. They didn't know this place was pure evil. Now they're fighting for real, turned from friends into bloodthirsty enemies, wanting to have this place only for themselves.

Don't go there, you might not come back...

Maybe it's all CSG?

Because this mapper as talent, imagination, skills, curiosity and patience.

He test, change, re-test, re-change until it's perfect. Believe me or not, that's why it doesn't look like stock stuff at all but it is.

I'm one of the testers. Go in the beta thread for complete dev. It is really all stock stuff a part the music

This new mapper is an example of HQ mapping

[Lynch]

Yep, it's hard to believe there is no custom contents. I'm glad this is finally released. Looks really really good.

[genthly]

Yup, no custom content here
Thx for the comments guys, D/L in 1 hour

Congratulations genthly! I wasn't sure if it would ever get your own personal final approval. Nobody is as tough on genthly as genthly! This map has been sweet for months! Good luck in the contest, I know the judges will be blown away. I am.

Thanks The Demon Slick
For now this thread is for the PC version.
PS3 will still be on the beta thread, btw. did RC2 run on your PS3?

[genthly]

Seems there's no MSU for me...
Tried to upload it 6 times, and now i'm running out of time
Will try it untill epic won't let me. Every other upload site works for me, but not this one... 2,5 months of hard work for nothing...

[genthly]

Id like to post my screenshot here too

If you don't mind i'll add them to the initial post (?)

[BuffyTheSlayer]

yay ! Final is out !

and thanks use my screenshot too !

[genthly]

OK. Didn't mke it to upload to MSU thx to Fileplanet

Filefront made it. Go get it on the initial post

[LtClifff]

NO! your not serious! God i cant believe that could happen to you!!! Maybe if you let someone else upload it for you?!

[stevelois]

After playing for a while, the final is...

Ah...
...
...
So sweet and adorable

I don't know how long I had browse around before playing even if I had play through all release (private & public) Paying attention to details and polishing that you made, I'm simply amazed

To the community, I say that this is my personal best-of-the-best UT3 outdoor map so far Including retail map, all bonus map pack (Epic Bonus Pack 1, UT3Dom, CBP3 vol. 1) and by professional mappers (Hourences, DGUnreal, Slainchild, name it !). I just wish that the new mappers take example out of this sympatic guy

And Genthly,

The latest changes/polishing you made for the sky, caverns, rocks, waterfalls and others that I won't comment are just, well... mmm... heu... gorgeous

Hope that you'll be ok for the MSUC ! I know you made everything to upload the map on fileplanet before the headline and it would be very frustrating and deceiving to finally know that the map didn't enter phase 1

Also, best of luck and BIG BIG THX for the map
