In Summary:
* No Deadline
* Castle / Ruined Theme
* Indoor / Outdoor (Preferable)
* Remakes Permitted
* Free Design - Future,Medieval,Floating ...
* No Four Square Castles
* Your OWN Unreleased Work, Doesn't have to be new.
* EVERYONE is allowed to enter atleast 1 map.

Would anyone be interested in this theme for a mappack?

Obviously at the moment, most folks have their time taken up with the community mappack 2; However if anyone wants to they can contribute to this map pack too.

New Maps Only please, and by new that means UNRELEASED.
If you have some castle maps already built but you have never given them out you may use them.

There will be NO constraints other than a to be confirmed time frame.

The only thing I do NOT want to see is dozens of Cube Castles(Four Square Castle is the official architectural term). Using the preset shapes is fine, just try to be a little creative so IE don't just make four square towers ith walls inbetween, add arches, spires etc. This pack is not intended to be of the same high quality that is expected of the Community Pack so everyone feel free to pitch in, and if you get stuck drop a post here

Alongside my work on the Liandri Medical Centre & another map (which I wont reveal yet) I'm creating my first castle map for this pack based on Beaumaris Castle.

Remember this is a Castle Map Pack but you are not limited in anyway - They can be futuristic,ancient,alien,ruined,floating,flying, ANYTHING just ensure it retains a "Castle" appearance.

I will drop a map here. I could really use a break from the community mappack. Maybe I'll get some nice ideas in the process to improve what I'm making for the community mappack.

I am doing a castle based map, in Hell, but I it's intended to be released in Halloween, so I can't contribute it to this pack.
If you came up with this earlier, I would contribute it to the pack.

This also allowed? Ruin/cave like map, but it doesnt have the correct "Castle" atmosphere

Theres no constraints As long as it has a slight Castle/Ruin feel to it. I don't mind it however has it been officially released?

Also there's no "official" close time for this map pack. Basically when we all have had enough of making Castle maps or have alot in stock it will get sent out.

And as a second note : Remakes are permitted providing the remake is of a fairly significant change.

I'm just putting here a small screenshot, to motivate other mappers and to make other mappers point out all the flaws of my map and keep trolling around cause their HDD crashed and can't map anymore... Where was I? Oh yes, the screenshot. There ya go:

And don't forget to send a letter to your grand mom to thank her for your brand new Xbox360.

To be honest, this looks better than the last screenshots I've seen from you, but it's still nothing to show around. How exciting can it be to run around in squares?

I am in the process at the moment of designing an Outdoor version of it first,however I have more plans.

There is going to be 3 maps of Beaumaris, Outdoor, Indoor and Mixed.

Outdoor is first,then indoor and if there is time and its not too big a task both of those maps merged.

The mixed variety will most likely be for larger gametypes like BT or Siege.

That was serious. A serious start of my new map. A snapshot taken after about 1 hour(s) of work.
Here is another one after about 6 hour(s) of work.

Is it 6 times better? YES or NAY
