Description:

For the mapping contest, i've tried to catch the spirit of original UT maps rather than freaking out in the editor and spread around eyeporn like nothing else. DM-Stalwart and DM-StalwartXL were one of my favorite maps so i started a complete rebuild of StalwartXL. The basic floorplan is kept more or less the same but this map is spiced up with a tiny bit of Z-Axis fighting, some eyecandy (not much) and more ways to escape. Currently i'm working on improving the geometry to make the map looking a bit more interesting and complex.

Currently, there is no playable map available. I have to pan out some problems and want to rollout the map not before these issues are fixed.

I hope the screenshots will give a good impression how the map will be working

It certainly has this Stalwart feeling.
Great start!

[UnrealGGecko]

Got my interest, big fan of Stalwart as well.

This looks awesome!
Very curious about the end-result!

[Terraniux]

Very atmospheric! Pretty map already!

@Tyr any news on this?

[Tyr]

It's done when it's done.

I'll post some more shots later. Map is nearly on 80%.

The original Stalwarts were really atmospheric maps as they depicted the same style the intro had.
A futuristic mechanic shop which now gives place to bloody-battles.

Looks awesome so far!

A new screenshot has arrived:

I decided to spice up the looks. Currently working on bot pathing and i have problems to teach the bots to run through certain places. If you take a look at the screenshot, there is a catwalk above the metal gate. Bots that coming from the upper entry never jump down to the heath vials.

Did you try lift-exits?

Several people here can get bots to do a handstand if that's what you need. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

I remember playing the Stalwart maps when I first got UT99 wayyyyy back in about 2001/2,. Was immense fun learning the game and playing etc, but the Stalwart maps always left me wanting a tougher experience, and now I think you may have achieved that, it'll be interesting to see how it plays.

Still going forward with this one?

[Tyr]

I had not the time to finish the map for the contest, but it will be done soon.
