Crysis Map ~ Vulcano [WIP]

[barballs]

Dude! That is some amazing looking Level!

Great work!

Would love to beta test but this maching doesn't support. Will definitely have one capable for your next map though!

Ok finally got around to playing this, gotta say this is some great work here HP, really got me back into Crysis! Some points i noted while playing:

- I liked the whole rock climbing aspect of it, thought it broke up the action well and allowed for more use of the suit abilites

- Was there meant to be a way into the base with the chopper? I couldn't find a way in and didnt bother killing the chopper, i just ran away..is it just there to divert you from that base?

- The submarine was cool, i liked how you can enter it and explore its good for stocking up on (lots of) weapons before attempting the next base section

- Occasionally birds dive bomb into the ground and sea, whilst quite funny, is this meant to be happening?

- The wooden wheels that roll around and down hills are a nice addition

- Was nice and long, took me a good hour to make my way around it

Couple of bugs:

- These caves seemed a bit strange compared to the rest of the mine section...something about the way they are lit or textured seems odd, see picture to see if you know what i mean, the shadows/lighting looks a bit triangular on the walls in the dark and theres a bit of texture stretching in places it looks like:

- I fell down a hole while crossing over to the large base inside the volcano, i took some shots of it, you fall half way down it then can jump out of it but if you mistime the jump you fall to the bottom and can't get out:

Sorry i can't be more specific about where it is, its a large island

Great work though i really think you stand a good chance in the contest, some shots follow, i was using your config as well, made my gun a bit dark at times? :

Hey PaulH, thanks for beta testing the map!

Good thing you let me know about this bugs, because I'm still in time to fix them before final release!

Btw, about you using my cfg while playing the map, I tweaked the lighting to be perfect on the default Crysis settings, on the other hand when using my config the map tends to look way too dark in some areas! It's ok I guess, since most of the people, including the juri is going to play the map without any configs of course.

Although, i'm going to make a workaround for people who are using my config, in the final release read-me file!

Again, thanks man, and I'm glad you liked it!

- Was there meant to be a way into the base with the chopper? I couldn't find a way in and didnt bother killing the chopper, i just ran away..is it just there to divert you from that base?

Yes, the main objective is there! If you press TAB, you can see the green dot in the map, as the main objective.

I did'nt want to spoilt it, but oh well, here's how you can penetrate the base... You can either go around the mountains, or use the sewers tunnels, hidden in the bushes, in front of that big wall between the guard towers.

Oh and the chopper can only be shot down with the rocket launcher, you can pick some in the Supply Drops, marked as yellow dots in the map.

EDIT::

Ahh... Wait a second, I can tell by you'r minimap screenshots there is no objectives! That is because you didn't patched you'r game!

You NEED Crysis patch 1.2 to be able to run custom maps with objectives, download the patch here: http://crymod.com/filebase.php?cat=29
