* LEVEL DESCRIPTION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This map was designed for Nunuk's second geometry competetion. I was only allowed to use 12 textures, and the focus was primarily on interesting brush geometry. Originally, my idea for the map was a floating alien "las vegas" type city in space, with lots of REALLY tall buildings, lots of weirdness, and lots of neon. But in constructing the map, I went a different route. Now it is a floating monolithic city, but it has been stylized using dark hues of blue and green. Gameplay can be compared to something like q3dm18, in which the players often see each other long distances, yet the fights happen very close, and are often very brutal.

* SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS OR INFORMATION *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just extract map_wvwq3dm4.pk3 into your baseq3 directory. Type /map wvwq3dm4 in the console. Or go to skirmish->FFA and select WVWQ3DM4. Also, I recommend r_gamma set to "1" for the best experience. Otherwise it tends to be washed out. Level was built w/ r_gamma 1 in mind.
