A great map for those who get bored of playing arena style maps, and are looking for a somewhat realistic feel. This map is set in a tropical middle-eastern desert town location. There are streets which move their way around the homes, and there are walkways that move their way from the streets up to the tops of the buildings. The layout is a lot of fun once you find your way around the map. There are items which are placed all over the map, along with a railgun which takes some work to pick-up. The greatest thing about the map is that it's so original from anything that has been done yet, and you can tell a lot of work went into making it that way.

The textures used are from Todd Gantzler, Berneyboy, and a skybox from Amethyst7. The palm trees along with the plant set-up has been done well, along with a little pool with the MH sitting at the bottom. The bots play fine.

Check it out!

Oh i forgot the "casablanca.arena" also has to have the SAME NAME as the .bsp that you've changed! so if I renamed to scourge.bsp ---> scourge.arena (In case you didn't know this of course).

@Squad: I think all you can do now is open the .pk3 (winrar or winzip) , go into the maps folder and rename the "casablanca.bsp" to "whatever.bsp" and in the scripts folder open up "casablanca.arena" with notepad and on the line" map "casablanca" " change the name to " map "whatever" ". I hope this helps and I;m glad you liked my map!

This is definitely a great map.

I've got one problem loading it though. Although the map is called "Sunset Isle" the file itself is named Casablanca. There's already a Casablanca map here on lvlworld, which I have installed, and I can't get both to show up in my choice of boards. Only one or the other shows. I've tried renaming the file itself, but that doesn't solve the problem. Any ideas on how I can get both to show?

This is a fantastic map - a real winner in my books! The steps presented themselves as speed humps at first but take them on with some diagonal strafe jumps and you really get some awesome speed up along with some great midair vectoring. And what i really love about the steps is you can go into a rocket jump while strafing without losing the speed you've built up. A strafers dream. Forget the rail gun - the grenade launcher works a treat and if a few of you end up with it - fun times are going to be had. Add haste and invisibility to the mix and you have a joyous map. (ps: looking for an easy frag - load some bots up aswell - they tend to get stuck in the pool with the MH). Congratulations Scourge on a top notch map.

I'm glad you guys like my map!
About the water texture, yes it is from mapmedia.pk3. If the texture doesn't show up (which it should because i've added it to my map's texture folder, also including its shader files), then you just have to download mapmedia.pk3 from my filefront page. Also, about the black alpha channels on the plant leaves: if you can, open up the .pk3 using zip, go in the "scripts" folder and rename the shader file thats called "multiplant" to any name that you prefer...
Anyways thanks for downloading my map!

@Anonymous: Best thing to do is make a temp folder and move all your PK3 files to this temp folder except for the official Q3A ones (pakX.pk3) and this one.

If the problem is still there, the issue is with your video drivers (at a guess).

If the problem has gone, then add back the PK3s from the temp folder a few at a time until you find the one that has the damaged shader.

Hard to tell. The shader could be part of any of the pk3 files (read: maps) that are read by q3a after the pk3 of this map (it reads them in alphabetic order if I'm not mistaken).

Simply moving all custom pk3 files to a temporary folder should solve the problem (the plants work for me).

Nice map, except here I see the black alpha channel around the leaves on all plants. Could someone give me an idea what shader I have in baseq3 that could be causing this?

An interesting and "different" map. Played the beta some time ago and liked it, so I grabbed this one. It's a huge map with a unique flair. It has lots of open space, so better get that RG fast.

Well done.

Btw: for some strange reason, I'm missing the water texture used for that pool (liquids/pool3d_5b.tga used in shader liquids/clear_ripple2) though I'm quite sure I know that texture (mapmedia.pk3?).
