Map Info
	File Name ctf-ancienttrain.zip Author VVani Gametype UT Capture the Flag Date Added 01-19-2004 File Version 1.00 File Size 694 kb Player Count 6-16 Map Description I'm a Japanese,so my English is poor. sry! I have tried to make a giant Mover before, so I make it as trains. This level has only RED-BASE and BLUE-BASE, and the train which running between bases. Trains come the base every 28 seconds, and stop here for 10 second. The way to going Base-to-Base is only riding Train. so, Bots can't move normally. Bots can only Defence, so it's a fun to play this level with your friends. Review Rating -- User Rating 4 Overall Rating --

I am realy familiar with a laggy mover system.(when you jump up next to the wall,you go through it or get killed by mover) It is still a problem in UT2003! They realy need to improve the mover system. EDIT: I agree with you down there. i also think, that the map is too dark. The railroad track and stations are hanging in air. Physically trains and track are very heavy and you need to make rigs like a bridge over river or gorge(it will make sense.) You know enough about movers such as attachment, but, the train is a little high and narrow. One big minus I found is that, when train is on the station, the pantograph(thing on top of train) is going through the flag bases and the bridge. make two train tracks and two trains on opposite sides. Also, try to alternate the dark wall at the middle.(you made it as protection against snipers on other base) but it is a distracting element.

It's not crime to use skyboxes or to create an enviroment. Space is an essence for gameplay. And last you nshould try to put in more effects and better graphics. It's a trainstation, put in some newspapers (on the floor I mean) Or a trash-can or two. A phonebooth, benches and so on. It will fill up the area and look a lot better. Jez 04-13-2004 11:26 AM MDT Rating: 4   I disagree with you there. Lightweight objects like newspapers and bins which are more indestructible than stone aren't very realistic. Also, if you don't get back on the train after capturing the enemy flag... well you can always wait for it to return :p
