First of all: there are couple of missing textures, missing music and have a small gap in brush architecture... Looks like the map was made as one big floater in a desert with one pyramide... Some of the textures aren't seamless, which may be. and to the water: There are few places the water have own function (steps in it are the 'glock' sounds), but the others it's only shader looking as water with no special function, you can only go inside the water brush, but nothing more, there aren't the 'glock' sounds for the footsteps, and if it was more depthed, you cannot swim in it and cannot drown... So it's not a water...

But the concept is good, you're on a disgusted road... Make more maps, take more experiences and you'll make much nicer and issueless maps...

@CZGhost: I've created many other maps before and they were all better than this but my other map files where deleted and I could not recover them. Also I had the first version of GtK Radiant before the update but I lost that too and had to download the new updated version which I did have a little trouble of handling. It's been a few years since I created maps so I did lose my touch a little. Thanks for the info CZGhost and hopefully I can fix the problems.

I also create maps for Unreal Tournament games. I can show you some of my work and they are way better than my Q3 maps. Below are some of my amazing UT2004 work.

The links above are the images of my maps for UT2004. Hope you like them :)

Pretty good grasp of Egyptian architecture, quite a bit of creativity. I couldn't find any of those 'surprises' though...

Reiterate what CZGhost said; and the framerate is terrible, gameplay is broken; the former can be fixed with hinting and possibly antiportals, the latter is properly broken because of the flatness of the map. BUT, it is pretty good for an unexperienced youngster though, you show potential.

FragTastic: "DM - Dust"

But that's a map from Counter-Strike...? It looks exactly the same too... How about links to your UT2004 maps?

@themuffinator: UT2004 can create CS remakes and also some Q3 remakes too. UT have the same programming files as CS so they can create exactly remakes which look exactly the same. I'll try to find the links to the maps but I did have the images for them. A guy created Hell's Gate for UT2004 as a remake. Take a look :) www.map-factory.or...-hellsgate-3279.

I understand the Framerate sucked but I'll be sure to make an update on it soon however I actually posted this map on another Q3 forum without bot support but others intended to have the map with bots so I updated it with bot support. I wasn't actually prepared to have bots in it so that's why the Gameplay sucked and I apologies for this.
