DM-Algol

Name: DM-Algol
Version: 1.0
Compatibility: UT2004

Description:
"Algol 1, the only planet in the Algol binary star system, follows a figure-of-eight
orbit lasting around 204 days. Both stars are relatively cool, therefore the
planet's close orbit and atmospheric conditions are able to support life. Night
only falls for a few short months twice a year, where the orbit reaches its furthest
point from both stars.

It never rains here as such; water seeps out of the ground when heated, and forms a
thick layer of surface fog and groundwater, which is then re-absorbed once it cools.
The native plant life uses frond-like leaves or hollow structures to capture
moisture from the air.

Enough science lessons, time to fight!"

Large Deathmatch / TAM map for 6 - 12 players.

Looks really nice. Downloading...

EDIT:

... Very nice, indeed! A great mix of alien tech and organica. The layout is very intriguing. Very professional lighting, textures and detail, as usual, Hazel.H. Bot support appears fine in my quick test.

Thanks for the fine map!

This is sexay.

I always did like that sun in U2.

and while I know everyone loves your textures and artistic design, (which I do too) I alsowant to point out that your play-design and layout are getting better and more interesting with each release!

Much thanks again big H! I'll be sure to point this one out to the co30 boys. (If Axeman hasn't grabbed this already.

I agree, however when this map came out it had optimization problems but on todays PCs you wouldn't probably notice.

So why does no one here mention the optimization problems? (just curious) By the way, some of my necro posts are from old comments I wrote down a few years ago and others are from new maps I tried; this is the former.

Cool Masterpiece!

A perfect mix of alien tech and organica themes, blending with perfect atmosphere, digital layout/details, good textures/meshes, custom audio track/ambient sounds, and eye candy breakthrough in organic way. Some alien plants, antennae, her skybox, and other elements are simply fascinating and artificial. There is also an weird alien language in monitors and trims when it comes to your mind (actually I don't know how to translate those alien words though, translator noob ), and the blinking mechanical "eyes" are awesome, but don't staring at them, you'll be get goofed by bots, lol. This map contains good weapon/item placement, custom jump pads, some tricky actions on my remark, z-axis, excellent gameplay, and the bots are decent. Truly professional stuff by Hazel.H indeed!
