Arrowhead Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Hi everyone, This is a large megaWAD of 32 CTF maps! We started this project because we wanted a new megaWAD for our weekly casual CTF event, Wadazine Flag Fest. We attempted to emulate a classic look and feel in this map set. Maps range from desert ruins to hellish wastes to ammo depots, offshore platforms, dank basements, UAC facilities and much more! Maps range from small to large. There are 16 maps by @MrPred, 14 maps by myself, and 2 maps by @Endless This pack predominately uses Otex1.1 + Doom 2 for textures. Skies are predominately from Mechadon's Box o' Skies v3, minus the few animated skies we used. These 32 levels are compatible for play in either Zandronum or Zdaemon. This set is designed to be played w/ jump ON, freelook ON, crouch OFF, Item respawn ON, weapon stay ON, and respawning barrels ON. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Here are some screenshots from the project: MAP06: Small Technicalities (MrPred) MAP07: Kingdom Come (Arrowhead) MAP11: Marooned Outpost (Endless) MAP12: Alert (MrPred) MAP17: Desert Ruins (Arrowhead) MAP20: Surface Flames (MrPred) MAP21: Eons (Arrowhead) MAP28: Castle Isle (MrPred) MAP32: Plazma Plaza (Arrowhead) I'll post more info on this week's WFF session soon (in the MP forum) - we're going to be playing the first 10 maps of this megaWAD this Sunday! As always, all are welcome, no password, friendly and casual! We appreciate the MIDI composers who allow their tunes to be re-used in other projects. Many thanks to our many playtesters who played an earlier unfinished 2022 version of this WAD. Very special thanks to @Flambeau @spwnSH4Rk for their great help in hosting these events. We're on our 86th session already! All other credits are in readme. Here's the download link, w/ an attached readme: https://www.mediafire.com/file/zn48alsrrsc50y5/WadazineCTFv1.0-Final.zip/file We've got more maps up our sleeves! There will likely be a sequel to this at some point in the future - but not until we get some other projects finished first. :D THE WADAZINE CTF TEAM________________________Endless Arrowhead Mr.Pred Flambeau spwnSh4rk Edited June 11, 2023 by Arrowhead 16 Quote Share this post Link to post

Endless Posted May 26, 2023 Had a lot of fun mapping for the first time for CTF in this one :) Quite the experience I'm already looking to do again. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

Geniraul Posted May 26, 2023 The balance, color palette, texturing and some good music — everything is on the level in this WAD! The symmetry of the maps provides equal gameplay opportunities to both teams. I also like how the levels harmonize with multiple colors, they are quite wisely distributed. I especially appreciate the layouts and palette on maps 11 and 17. Spoiler I appreciate the Quake 3 weapon sounds, too! One more thing to mention is that I'm impressed with the instant teleporter and jump pad on map 18. Both are great for adding variety to the game on multiplayer maps. The spinning skybox on map 12 didn't leave me indifferent either. This time, it is not you who find yourself on a cosmic body orbiting another, but space orbiting the cosmic body you are on C: I would also be glad to see some more CTF levels with various routes to bases in future projects as well. CTF WADs deserve some more attention and farther development of the genre, IMO. Definitely, amazing job on this one and keep up the good work! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post

Arrowhead Posted June 17, 2023 @Endless and I are 28/32 maps into a new CTF megaWAD - Fast as Hell Flags. We're hoping to have this released soon. We've made these 28 levels in just over a month. There will still be a sequel to this mapset, but we wanted to get that done first. :D 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
