a little project im working at the moment, re-skinning the 2003 map that your all familiar with in ut2004, i give you DM-TAM-Grendelkeep...
(looking from LG)
ive decided not to use compleatly new textures but use some lighter textures from a few existing maps you get with the game. Mostly ive used textures from Albatross as you might of already guessed.
so far the results are great and you can now really apriciate the lighting in this map as it was so dark before. This i hope will make it great for TAM, and a few tweeks also like removing some decorative static meshes which are not really needed might even help the fps in this map to increase.
the next project afterwards is to make a Warsow type of version of Grendel !
After than im going to do an exact port of Campgrounds from Quake hopefully but make it more TAM playerble...

yep its a fact, i always sneek up the curved stairs to lg, with my back to wall at the same time to that anyone directly above can not see until i get to the top ! depends on situation of cource... but hell yep remove em an put jump pads so that you have th choice of getting up there quick or running for flak spawn point.

pads sound good, also make a jump pad up to rockets from the middle dorrway if possible, that would be much kooler than the gay lifts. and also make a slope up the step down by lower link or summink... thats well annoying hehe. also a wall across the bridge between mini and upper link would be kool. just to stop people at mini and lg being able to snipe and focus is from lg to link maybe.

yep i not sure of pads for rox each side, but think of the Pro map for CTF it has central access from the bridge thew into dd area, pehaps i could copy that element from CTF-Grendelkeep-pro and add the drop holes perharps !??

does any1 remember the Labrenth.. where david bowie is in that room with staircases all over (on the walls on the celling staircases on staircases that sort of thing) that would make a cool level, as you wouldnt no witch way is witch. so you could have people running up side down and on the walls and all that type thing (the mazeroom) |

thought i mention the origin for the concept of this map for those nubbers who dont know.....
The original mappers insipration comes from Beowulf stories, of which the Castle & Keep plays a big part. Beowulf basicaly goes to take on the demon Grendel and manages to kill Grendel and Grendels evil mother.
