Here is my entry for the 6th mapping contest.
Its a warehouse located in Nuuk/Greenland with a lot of snow / at night.
The map is specially designed for fast CTF-games, with a simple balanced 3-paths layout, a central-room with bridge that is dangerous to pass by, and with flags placed close to the base-entrances.
Story is as always: for some obscure reason CLA and RVSF have their bases in the same map, so it will inevitably come to a bad end ...
Map-Stats:
169 light
21 playerstart, 7 CLA, 7 RVSF, 7 FFA
6 pistol
8 ammobox
4 grenades
6 health
2 helmet
1 armour
89 mapmodel, 40 clipped
3 ladder
2 ctf-flag, 1 CLA, 1 RVSF
21 clip
10 plclip
total entities: 342

Looks good sputnik!! But would 7 FFA spawns mean that only 7 people can play in Free-For-All? Or spawn on top of each other.

Thanks!
As far as I know, the CLA and RVSF playerstarts are also used for respawning in FFA-games.
This mean that you have here 21 FFA-Playerstarts in total.

Lighting looks like it could use some work.

What do you think is the main problem with it, too bright / dark, homogeneity.. ?

@ sputnik, I haven't had the time to test your map yet but just from what I can see on the minimap it looks like bright/small radius spots here and there, these would have been OK if you had lamps models to justify it.
There is no definite rules for setting lights, it's more about a feelings and atmosphere but one thing is for sure is that lights come from more or less strong sources then they fade out.

My main problem is to get an homogenic lighting in the outside areas. This is really hard because of the snow (white floor).
I think my next try will be to put some very low lights with large radius all over the map, than put the blue/light blue lights over and than the bright/small radius lights for the lamps...

Just play with the radius for the light.
I don't really like the texturing (outside) but i like the gameplay a lot.

You´re one of my favourite AC-mappers (specially ac_syslang) and I hope to see your entry soon... and since you will win this contest, you could give me some tips... :D
What don´t you like, the texture-choice, too monotonous / more diversity?

Was anyone else tempted to use the Li'l Nuk nade mod on this map? :D
