Haven't tried it, but it looks pretty cool. The screenshots look pretty dark, is that how it really is?

I like this map.
Is that a skybox captured from Celestia?

I used the regular space skybox and pasted a screenshot of the earth from Celestia on the bottom image. Tried rotating the skybox to give the map a real feel, but in vain I'll try to post the pk3 soon, it's still buggy.

WoW! That looks pretty cool. Simple yet attractive architecture and layout. The lighting is ok, in my opinion. Can't wait to test-play this one. Count me in.

The link to the pk3 below: http://home.comcast.net/~dadaniel30/suspended.pk3The map is still buggy with gaps in brushes showing. Still in beta stage. Suggestions are welcome on items and weapons placing. @gavinyog: just put the file in your OpenArena\baseoa folder and in game hit the "~" key and type "map suspended" Cheers!

No, no problem, it just sounded familiar and I couldn't quite place it.
The only problem I have (Other than the things you've already mentioned) is the 11.6 meg aas file. On your next bspc compile try -optimize -aasopt it will remarkably shrink the file size.

I tried a regular bspc without -forcesidesvisible and the bots did nothing other than jumping off. The -forcesidesvisible made the 11mb aas file.
thanks for the tip.

Yeah, I am beginning to think that there are issues with the bspc tool and oa. Our maps can't be that fubared to need -forcesidesvisible for every map.

This map looks fancy, could use some touches of flare lights in some places however, and some contrasted lighting probably stuck as lights under the platforms lighting the areas above the players only a little to give more depth. Just make little light blocks (that have flares) under the platforms like this) You don't have to use these light colors though Looks cool with 16x anistropy at 1280x960x32!

Another tip - the common shader (Unless you are using one of the mirrors in it) doesn't need to be distributed with the map. All of the nodraw/clip/hint info is stored in the bsp.
Also if you take fromhell's advice, (Which would look nice) check the oalite.shader from the svn first. There are quite a few flared lights in it.

i copy from c:/ drive to openarena/baseoa folder but did mot work?! !! and the thing look like this: i go to start at the bottom right of windows, go to look for files or folders, type openarena. then i pressed one of the files containing baseoa, i then paste the file i copied to there. then i open OA the game, in the console i typed 'map suspended' (without the ( ' ) sign). the game then wrote that it cannot find the map. and maybe all the problems i had is due to me downloaded the game from gamershell.com???

The reason why I did this was, when I copied just the pk3 file to another laptop with just the OA installation (without the svn stuff) and launched the map, the grates did not work and I could see through the platforms from below (any idea why this happens?). I checked the pak0.pk3 and the common shader was missing. So I thought the common.shader was required in the pk3. @fromhell - Great idea, I'll add the lights. @gavinyog - probably, uninstall OA, then download it from this site. Launch OA and check if it is working by typing 'map kaos' which is a map already in OA. Then download suspended.pk3 and put it in 'C:\program files\openarena\baseoa'. Then try 'map suspended' again. If that doesnt work send me a message and I'll try to walk you through the process. Cheers!

That is probably because the grates didn't have shaders written for them in 0.6.

Are you using the -flares switch in the bsp stage with q3map2? -fs_game baseoa -skyfix -meta -flares

I set r_flares to 1 in game and lights look the same with or without r_flares. Did you try the map? I'm not sure what I should expect. What's the difference with or without flares?
