Trap Maps

Post by lord_kungai »

I am always fascinated by trap maps. they way you kill your enemies by making them kill themselves...

Can someone (not me, I can't even make a one room map) make CTF, BR and DM trap maps please? I relly liked Arena and Arena][ by Shadwstar. 8)

thanks in advance :D

There are a few clans that specialize solely in BR and CTF.

It may not get played much, but BR has its charms. I've never thought about doing a BR map, but who knows? Maybe one day...

BR.....

i had a few ideas for BR, but to be honest, the gametype just got left behind in favour of DM,CTF, and best of all AS.....

id love to try an AS map myself.....

IDEA:

A really, really long CTF map composed of several rooms. two rooms are for flags (F), 4 for spawning (S) and 7 for Traps (T)

S S
F-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-F
S S

Ideas for traps in rooms:

1) Floor has several large colored tiles. If you step on a certain color tile, it will open to reveal a pit of lava. There could be a sign on the wall informing players of the tile to beware

2) Huge axes swinging from the ceiling/hammers pounding on the floor/Jets of fire erupting from the walls or floor at regular intervals.

3) Room has glass walls and a button outside it which, if pushed, causes the room's doors to lock and releases hordes of proxy mines into the room from vents ont he ceiling/walls

4)etc. etc. etc.

Thats just a starting idea...

Edit: the picture is not coming out properly, at least when i see it

If you still have UT99 installed, there's a good one called CTF-Deathtrap.

I miss most of the UT99 DM maps. I can't even remember the names. I also miss UT99 AS.
If anyone knows for UT2004 pack with ALL UT99 maps in it, please send me the URL. Or if you know a website. I'm not really on browsing for UT99 maps for UT2004 in a map site, if I don't even rememebr the names, exept AS-Frigate :roll:

ON TOPIC: Well, I always like to make DM trap maps :P Bots so dumb they hang around crusher rooms :wink:
