| | File Name | dm-souvenir.zip | Author | Hobs | Gametype | UT2k4 Deathmatch | Date Added | 12-19-2004 | File Version | 1.00 | File Size | 2.39 mb | Player Count | 4 - 8 | Map Description | The first vision of this place came to the Architect during one dreamy night, years ago. Since then, he tried to reach it again. Drugs or hypnosis wouldn't help, but the fascination was still there. So he recreated it from his fuzzy souvenirs: Some other place, so similar, but also so different... | Review Rating | -- | User Rating | 6.5 | Overall Rating | -- |

| CursedSoul1 12-21-2004 01:16 PM MST | | Looks very nice, will check it out asa I finished my homework to give a better opinion since pictures only tell a small part of the 'story'.
So, ill update asap.
Edit: the big-lotsapeople DM-DE-Ironic version :) Ill be fast about this one since I have to go away for the day as well.
Layout: Oldsk00l (but imho hardcore)layout, IF id play Deathmatch with some friends this would be one of the maps id play.
Item placement: simple but effective, imho every item is on a place that is memorable (I had them memorized in less than a minute) and on a place that fit the weapons (again imho (in my humble opinion))
Decoration: dm-DE-Ironic-ish but with some of Hour's Ons-Adara's meshes, some parts of the map are made with love, and others look like you didn’t know what to do with it (well known problem with me as well) so some parts look a bit out of place (especially the blue water) Not that superb, but certainly not bad :)
Lighting: not bad, not superb.
Botplay: didn’t have time for that atm, sorry.
Sounds: Sigh.. going to buy a new one today. I would give it about a 6.5/7. (6.5 sounds to lowish for this map maybe if your sound would be very out of place :p, so 7ish would be about right.. but not totally right) Ill keep this one on my drive for when I want to pwnz my friends, but its not a map that id show to impress.
/me runs off to get the bus.
LOL now that he mention it.. RIPOFF!!! lol.
i didnt even see that it was some kind of maleviolence..

EDIT: ECE pack neccessary, the first person who commented misses the Adara package Hourences made for his ONS-Adara for the ECE bonuspack.
| nELs0n 12-20-2004 05:38 PM MST | Rating: 5 | | the blue water really doesn't fit in there - maybe some greenish water or something but to quote unreal2: blue is definitely not your colour! ;)
the main idea behind this map is kind of nice therefor you get 5 points. but actually i was missing something to make it really interesting. it just looks very plain in some places so maybe if you changed the general scale of the map (at some places it was quite overscaled and the playermodel just looked small in there)it might become more interesting. the architecture imo needs work, too - you can make the map a lot nicer by just changing the architecture a bit. i hope this doesn't sound offensive as i just want to give advice :)
| hawkwind 12-20-2004 08:11 PM MST | Rating: 7 | | all this fuss over a little blue water. in the grassy area, it is out of place, but under the grate, looks good. what a fine map! i guess no ones going to bitch about this one being cramped! well laid out with different fighting styles useful in different places. i like the weapons and ammo being separated, though the flak cannon ammo was too close to that pick-up, and you have 2 more ammos elsewhere in the water. otherwise, weapon placement is perfect. the DD is in a relatively hard location to get to, but more important, trying to get it puts the player at great risk of being picked off. the grassy areas maybe could have used less grass, and more general terrain cover. good job! this one really feeds my sniper rifle habit :)
| lowenz 12-21-2004 07:24 AM MST | | Souvenir? Yes :) because.....it's MALEVOLANCE REMAKE! Take a look to layout, it's Malevolance! Good remake;)
| ChromeBallz 12-21-2004 11:59 AM MST | | now you say so... it looks exactly like one of the malevolence remakes on insite 0_o
copy?
| Hobs 12-21-2004 01:51 PM MST | | This map is actually a remake of DM-Malevolence, and I wrote Rich 'Akuma' Eastwood in 1st position as author in the readme
Anyway, I built everything from scratch, so this map isn't a remake from any Malevolence-Remake, but since it's based on the same map, it may look similar :)
Btw, I submited this map for beta-testing in some forums 1-2 months ago under the name DM-MalevolenceRevisited, then decided to change the name (on a suggestion from Yournan) because of the changes in size/shape from the original

This map is so much fun to play, the BOTs play very well and there's just enough Nostalgia, that there just lots to love about this map.
Great Job!
| redfist 02-02-2005 02:47 AM MST | | Well it can't be that bad of a so called ripoff,it took several comments to notice the similarities.
| T0mbr41d3r 02-02-2005 12:56 PM MST | Rating: 6.5 | | Yeah I must say I enjoyed playing this map :)
| G.Lecter 02-10-2005 01:39 PM MST | | I had problems with this map. Most of the staticmeshes looked white, I don't know why. I have installed Both ECE & CBP packs. I played it a little and it is a good arena, I feel it too wide sometimes and I miss some more z-axis and liftjumps. The water looks really odd. Great work, I don't rate it because the bug did not allow me to play the map as well as I would have liked...
| Manticore 02-20-2006 07:02 AM MST | Rating: 6 | | I had the same problem with the meshes. Funny I thought I had every bonus pack loaded as well. Gameplay was o.k. but it is partly a remake....
