Here is my map, currently in alpha stages. I set out to create a control point map a bit like well, that had more trains and a nice 'wild west' feel to it. It has 5 control points in a linear layout with 4 moving trains at each end of the map. After 45 seconds of set-up time doors open and players are allowed into the central CP building. I've had tests so far with about 20 people and It's producing nice games and doesn't seem to be biased towards either team.

The very first pack of screens I made a week or so ago:

Clockwise from top right:
- Looking back at the second blu cp building
- A top down view of the map
- A peek into the tunnel
- A train (in motion) by a spawn

The second set of screens from later that week

- Looking down over the blu side
- Looking over the blu traintracks
- Me proving the trains work like they should
- Another view of the blu side

Thats it for screenshots so far. All feedback is welcome (thats the point :))
I've been working on layout so far but now I'm moving into mainly making it look nice and fixing problems.

Can everyone see the images? I can only see one.

is the fact that the demo man is standing on an invisible wall the bug? or is he flying through the air looking at something I can't see?
Its probably the first, in which case, I shall ammend before the next release :D

Invisible wall of course.
After playing it @ 24 players, it rules :), people loving it.
Another little things, you should put a big no passing sign at the advance spawn, in order for people to see that they can't get inside even if burning from a friendly pyro. :)

I played it last night as well and I'm going to have it put on our server as well. Absolutely love it. Please update us at www.myunreal.com/bbs.

The train seems to hit you as soon as the bell rings. Could you give a little more warning before being hit by train?

Noticed this displacement not aligned as well and seems to run the length across the map.

Having lots of fun playing it though. Looking forward to an update.
