cp_beach_final

[BoneS]

Finally i have finished my first map, cp_beach.

I realise that you guys might be a tough audience judging by the quality of work released here. Give it a try and post back some constructive criticism please.

Its basically a remake of the classic RTCW (return to castle wolfenstein) map beach. Setup as a 3 CP (gravelpit stlyle) map, with a forward spawn for blue for balance. The map has a large outdoor beach area, multi-level platforms and an inside base area, for those who played the original i'm sure you'll know what i mean :)

Anyway half way through posting this i realised i couldn't upload the file because it was too large. So hopefully i'm allowd to post this link to the fpsbanana download.

its a fun map.. played it for a good 40 minutes the other night. visually is pretty simplistic, but that doesnt bother me since it was a good time. FPS drop in a few places was killer, but overall, nice work. was good fun :D

yeh i to have noticed the fps drop, problem is i dont really understand hints and other optimisations yet. I'll read up on it and try and optimise the map better. If anyone knows any good tutorials for optimization then please post them :)

thanks for the comments

i wouldnt worry about hints as much as areaportals.. they would certainly help smooth out FPS for your map
