It plays amazingly well for being such an horizontal map. It looks cool too. Fog version is superior imo.

I like the atmosphere of the map, the map name should be name of chemical substance (The Sulphuric Acid in this case)

The dark, foggy atmosphere makes the map so special :). 10/10

I just love the fog effect, it does seem like your in a residue of an industrial accident. Textures are used nicely. One of my favourites.

You done a great job Krash, 9.5/10.
Keep making excellent maps.

This map has everything that a truly great map should have: The special effects (including realistic fog) and ambient sounds are remarkable. Great game-play and bot support (even somewhere that bots will camp, don't you love that?) make the map a work of art. If the goal of a great mapper is to create an environ that causes one to feel as if they are in another place (not sitting and staring at a screen) then I applaud Krash for accomplishing that objective. This map gets a 10 from me and I wish I could give it more.
Thank you for all of the hard work that you put into the creation of this spectacular map Krash!

christ, I forgot to say that the steam, the sparks work. at first they seem gee-whiz gimmicky, but it's only because other maps don't have them, and they should.

Aside from some missing textures (which I think is my fault) I rank this map a major 10.0 on my scale. The bots even play quite well.

Usually, I bitch about the maps in here. Something's not right about this. I didn't like the way that was. Not enough ammo. Too much armour....all that crap.

But I was sitting here thinking about how I was going to trash this level.....and nothing came to mind. (Except MAYBE being able to hide behind the H2SO4 sign, but then I like that anyway...)

Nope I can't bitch. This map rules. It kicks ass. It's the standard by which all other maps should be measured. This map kicks my ass!

Well, I don't know about all that....but it's still pretty f*#@!ng good.

Personally I like it playing Doom mano a mano whilst he was set on NightMare! Map gives a whole new perspective while in FOV 30 looking for someone to plug with the RailGun.

10 outta 10 and I'll stop p1mping this map now.

Wow.

This map has now been voted to the number 1 map in the >20 votes category. I'm flattered.

Thanks everybody. Now I just need some more votes, to get in the >45 category. <grin>

An updated version which fixes the spectator bug is available: krash.idx.com.au/ktsdm3v2.zip and krash.idx.com.au/ktsdm3-nofogv2.zip

I have notified Tig, so it should be mirrored on fileplanet soon (my site is gonna get hammered though - be patient)

i only tried the fog version, but i think it's great. this is what the fog should be like, not that absolute shit id did which stops in the middle of the air... er i don't think fog has edges, id!

anyway awesome work, i was gonna review it but lvl has given it some pimpage now so no need :)

I don't give out compliments too often, but I definetly want to compliment Krash on his work in this level.

I looked at a lot of those Than_Industrial textures and didn't really like the look, but you've done an AMAZING job!

I like the fog (of course, I've got my new 950/GF2-DDR), it fits the atmosphere perfectly. I Didn't even notice the FPS drop below 90.

Keep up the good work, and if you're ever looking for a gig, contact me.

I still cant get over this map...

hehe, H2SO4, krash is right.

It is hydrogen sulfate until dissolved in water which makes sulfhuric acid :)

Nice map

I really like the teleporter...

ALOT. I spent about 2 minutes just watching the swirls and it fits in with the atmosphere perfectly.

H2SO4 is sulfuric acid

Actually, on second thought I did have it right.

HS is hydrogen sulfide

H2SO4 is (di)hydrogen sulfate

still need to fix the observer bug though.

DeFrag - yep, you're right. My bad.

I've also been notified of a bug that slipped by me - when you spawn in as an observer, you get put in that little room and can't get out. I'll probably re-release in a couple days, fixing up that, as well as the error in the text file.

That should cover it, I think.

I have a P4 1.4GHz and a GeForce 2.. the fog looks great (and it's not too thick, like in other maps) and the framerate doesn't take any hit (I love my beefy new system). Great work.

krash,

the no fog version is a lot better, that's what I'll be using, but it shows how atmospheric the fog really is in this level.

oh yeah, the fr3dm1 point was just an observation, I can see why you'd be inspired by such a level.

Great attention to visual detail, nicely proprtioned architecture, and just generally fun 2-level deathmatch play. The bots tend to clump in one spot but other than that this is a wonderful piece of work.

GET THIS MAP(s)!

To be fair you can't knock the map for the fog because there is a no fog version.

Maybe a good idea to stick em together Krash. It seems to confuse some people.

Personally I like the fog. To me it's worth the small 10fps hit I take.

I like the grenade launcher placement. Handy little opening right there beside it. Lots of fun dropping those pineapples down to the next level. Kinda reminds me of an old Q1 map that had a hole in the floor. Keeps people dancing.

Krash. Great effort. I give it a ten. Extra point because you did make a no fog version. I like choice. :)

Great map!!!

These maps (yours and tigger_on's) make me wish q3 had singleplayer.

I hope server admins use the nofog version if they add this map to rotations. The fog is really pretty, but fucks the fps. :(

Played this map from the betas and it is amazing. If you have a decent rig go the fog version, its stunning. Weapon placement is great allways allowing you to reach something so your not spending the entire match with the machine gun. Bloody top work I say , get it now!!!!!

Hehehe - I saw both of those comments coming.

There is an alternate version of the level that has no fog. I have emailed Tigger, asking him to put a link to it here somewhere. You need the full version as well (as it contains all the textures), but the no-fog version can give a significant increase in speed.

And, in defense of your second point, I quote my own text file (did you read it? The map actually has a story, you know):

"Friction and his map - "Iron Yard". Gave me the inspiration to map again"

and further down:

"New level from scratch - inspired by Friction's "Iron Yard"."

I knew what I was doing. ;)

a bit slow due to the fog but otherwise nice. Very reminiscent of fr3dm1 though.
