THX for the kudos.

Using the kill aread as a means to get back on defense faster IS a possible thing to look out for. You can't do it by yourself though. You have to be boosted to the kill area, or be the keeper. A larger wall behind the nets does sound like a pretty good idea. Maybe making the ...

The reset volume is HIGH. You CANNOT shoot the ball over it. No matter how high you shoot the ball, it will get reset. Try it.

The reset volume begins at the top of the walls and extends upward. I positioned the reset volume so that the ball can still bounce off the light columns, but will get ...

Well, I can't say that it is a visual feast for the eyes... it's just a different take on a regular deathball arena. DavidM in his guidelines says to not try to do too much with the maps, that players like the same dimensions... so I made the map have the same length as Cube and not have any ...

[SARCASM] You mean the big banners hanging behind the goals isn't enough?[/SARCASM]

Seriously though, I did think about adding some more color, but it ruined the look and feel. What I did was simply make the blue side have cool blue light, and the red side warm orange light. That way you don't ...

OK. I'm going to wait until the end of the day to get any bug reports, but I can't find anything else to do to the map before I label it FINAL.

Any suggestions as to where Deathball maps are usually uploaded to? I'm going to put it up at my BeyondUnreal hosted site, but anywhere else it should be ...

Thanks for the feedback Imaginos! I have to agree with you on all of the points you made. The volumes around the stadium are all kill volumes for the ball and the players. I didn't want anybody to be able to walk around the side wall ledges. Also, the decision to make the walls that short was mine ...

im sorry but i have to say i dont like this.

too much waste on it. colours i dont like,... too low.. its not practical for a proper game, nor a fuck about

Ok, I'm sorry you don't like it. It happens.

Could you explain what too much waste on it means? I thought I told the groundscrew to clean ...

Are you saying there is no radar in Beta 4? As far as I know, it's in there. :-)

From the amount of feedback in the last two days, I sense there is a slight lull in the Deathball community, or is this about right as regards to how many folks are actively playing the mod, checking the forums?

I'm ...

Had a bit more time tonight, so finished putting it together... with "somewhat" better lighting (still open to suggestions). Everything is now in the map, cameras, blocking volumes, triggers, level preview. etc.

Get it here - DB-Mythos Beta 4

OK. The one up now has got blocking volumes, etc. on it. I've turned down the lights a bit and it feels better, still not convinced though.

DB-Mythos BETA 2

Ack! Not yet!

Warning, this is NOT a playable map. Let me get another one up with volumes and such on it.

Ya, I don't know what the problem is, but I am aware of it. I'm talking to my tech support. My apologies.

UPDATE: Everythings working again. Stoopid me fogot to renew.

Greetings,

I have become a BIG fan of Deathball since I discovered it and I have taken one of my previous maps and begun making a Deathball map using the same theme. It will be called DB-Mythos, inspired by my CTF-Mythos for UT, UT2K3, and UT2K4. I am following David's guidelines to the tee ...
