Thanks to everybody who sent me feedback about the alpha.. Here's a slightly better looking beta version for testing.

I decided to combine the "#1" AND "#3" rail gun pickup suggestions (ref: http://www.quake3world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24265) .. Let me know what you all think. :icon31:

I really like the new version of this map. Although the texture set is kinda overused (we need more textures!) you have used them well.

The room scale is so much better now, and the map seems to flow good. I agree with the esreality post about the 3 YA's though. Might want to throw a red or MH in there somewhere.

One thing you need to look into though. I was somehow able to get behind the box leading to the RG. Double check the clipping in that area. I've had that problem with the wall-panels-leaning-haphazardly-against-the-wall feature. Better clipping should eliminate the problem easily.

Yeah.. Q4 is actually fairly prone to "magic evil brush the player can fall through". When you discovered this, were you a) inside the box, b) outside standing on the floor, or c) outside jumping down from on high?

I'll try to find it myself, but a hint would be nice.

Already Changed:
Fixed Texture shoot-through on big bouncepad chute.
Fixed unclipped detail on pipes near SG
Fixed 2 rl ammos too close together
Changed middle YA to MH... trying to decide if default respawn is too fast.

Actually, I jumped up onto the leaning panel on the right hand side of the box. I jumped from there to the ledge, but missed the ledge and fell "between" the box and the wall. I was able to do this twice.

Actually, I think the panels *cough* fell down on the floor, so they're much easier to clip now..

Now, if I can just decide whether or not the rail overdominates the map..
