Map Pack 2

Some time ago i uploaded a mappack, some maps were good, some maps were bad.
Here's my second mappack, it contains 4 maps:

Duel City: It's a remastered version from the first mappack, nothing big.

Duel City 2: Same formula from the first map.

NST-1: A simple, fun closed map, not much to say.

Skytek-1: This one is weird, it was not my intention to post it. Some people will love it, others will hate it. Very tricky map, hard to play on it.

I hope that some of these maps can be released on next version of the game.

Please send you feedback.

Re: Map Pack 2

Well i'll start with basic stuff:

More contrasts. It always helps. (use colors on the opposite sides of the wheel)

Every map should be placed around unique idea or location and have specific style/colours if you want them to look really cool.

Hammer down on basics, what you want your map to be CTF, TDM or DM.

Map specific:
Duel City:
Most complete of the pack, near perfect but could use some vents or have like a colored light in one of the offices.

Duel City 2:
Except for too many windows and little variation in buildings on the horizon it has really simple and nice usage of objects. Office should have less doors :) too open otherwise almost like it isnt a room.

NST-1:
Big and Welcoming. Could use some furniture thou, perhaps make the water glow blue, would be cool.

Sky-tek 1:
Most unique of them all. Platforms could use a unique style thou.

Just my thoughts and ideas. I could be wrong or biased. Nice collection thou.

Re: Map Pack 2

Please use .zip, which everyone can extract, instead of .rar.

Re: Map Pack 2

Sry for that, but 7zip is free and can extract rar.

For now, i'm working on an updated version of duel city 2 for mappack 3.
I decide that MapPack 3 will include all updated maps from the other 2 packs. Any tips are welcome...

That isn't enough; .rar is still a proprietary format. I would rather use .zip, .7z, .tar.gz and similar.

Also, .zip is universal, it can be extracted and created everywhere (all common operating systems: BSD, GNU/Linux, OS X, Windows) without installing additional software, unlike .rar.
