DLoaded this map from Planet Unreal today - pretty cool lookin! An recreation of the first level from Sonic the hedgehog (power ups, rings and all).

Check it out... would love to try this out on Stealth at some point...

sorry - just saw Freakish's request... sorry for the double request!

I've been following this in another forum... the map has a couple critical flaws that would make it impossible to play. It's a great concept, well executed but might be better suited for UT2 technology AND hardware.

On many machines (even Larathiel's rig) it will freeze (your system) for 20 seconds or more at a time then just start up again.

It actually does this for me but a Mac buddy of mine on the identical rig has no problems.

Again-- I think it's brilliant in concept but hit or miss in how it runs.

Good catch Horton..maybe the mapper needs to know?

Does know... it's a "cutting edge" sorta map so there will be problems.

are these related to the "freezing" youre describing... im curious about what the flaws are from an academic/game play perspective (i work in the game industry so its a professional interest say).

cheers guys

Just the techie/freezing/crashing thing... I can't get it too play for more than 20 seconds so I can't judge gameply. I love the concept--- colors are a bit bleary-eyed to me. I think this could really turn into something if it were built with UT2 power in mind.
