Level looks great, played a few rounds with bots.
Fifth already said it: a second choice of route up is needed.

After that, make a singleplayer map.
..and show us the other textures! 

Yes, a single player would be nice. Gotta organize prefabs and wads out of this stuff.

What about these map jams? Is it a thing closed to friends, or anyone can join? 

Anyone interrested and able to map can join. 

Satan's scrotum those textures are NICE - best new ones I've seen in Quake for a while. Great use of fog and lighting too.

I'm not really sure about DM but it seemed like the map wouldn't be free-flowing enough, needed a bit more openness and route choices. 

I've used the provided executable and batch file, but I can't see anything because of the fog. 

Really? That's odd. You're the first to give this feedback. Maybe it's an engine issue and some cvar tweaking at the console would help. 

That's exactly where the textures came from, how did you know?

And yes, I'm thinking about a second route now.

Thanks! 

Set fog 0 and r_skyfog 0 in the console to get rid of the fog. 

I think the map is a bit like Aerowalk, but it does need a couple of routes to the top, probably a 2 way teleporter also. Having the powerful weapons at the top needs to also come with some big risk or way of countering a height advantage.
I would have given more feedback earlier but I had a short break. I would add a second lift and maybe a couple of ramped or stair-way paths up. Looks good though, can't wait to see the rest of the texture set. 

Yes. But there should also be a Quad far away from the upper levels, so one could storm upon the rocket launcher with leverage. 

please, try out this new version:

It's still WIP, just to test the gameplay.

There are 2 elevators, one for each room in the 2nd floor;
The nailgun room now takes you to the terrace;
There is a quad damage still poorly placed. The goal here is to see how it breaks RL dominance. 

This thread is supposed to be about pictures. Please post pictures ! 

This thread is supposed to be about betas. Please post betas ! 

ahemm, forget it.. 

Pwhoar! I'd beta-test those. 

I shall try and satisfy your demands with a picture.

It shows the majority, but not all of, the second part of my map oms3_2 in a birds eye view from the editor. The first part lasts about 20 minutes, and I anticipate the second part presented here lasting anywhere from 20-30 minutes. The construction is nearly complete, with only one big area left to create and apply details to.

It will absolutely require Quakespasm and or RMQ since it not only breaks every standard Quake limit known to man, and probably some not even known, but it slightly extends beyond the +-4096 boundary. In other words, its huge.

...that looks as far from Periwinkle Paranoia as anyone could get. Looking forward to it Ionous.
