"Skybridge" by Andrew Seyko (Shattered Fortress)

    Count me in. I cannot believe Quake 3 is 15 years old. I used to play Quake 3 in High School all the time. That said, I have not played it in years. The weeks since being announced, I have mostly spent re-acquainting myself with Quake 3, studying the included maps and what elements work well. The last week I have been drawing up some sketches and white boarding some ideas on a high level, also spending time learning Radiant. WHITE BOARD IMAGE [Blocked Image: http://i.imgur.com/z3bGzVy.jpg] I have set some High Level goals in mind for Skybridge. Circular Layout. The map should flow well and avoid dead ends.Loose triangle of 3 unique areasOne strong Central ElementPlayer OrientationWeapon/Pickup and Map Control I am currently still working on the first iteration, and will post the map file later in the week. Here are some WIP screens. Updates will likely be on weekends, as that is when I will have to most time available.

The 3 major elements are going to be a Transit Hub, Dock area, and Processing Terminal.
