    Well, I guess I better throw my hat into the ring as well, since I too have a Relic remake to present to you all, with a working 1 flag CTF also, and it has all the Slayer variants, Regicide, Swat, Oddball and KotH.

    Have a look and let me know what you think?

    Updated: I have made some changes to the map, based on recommendations by fellow ForgeHub Members. They are shown with the original picture first, and the updated picture second.

    Also, there has been a bunch more cover added to the map in the form of large rocks, also suggested by a ForgeHub Member.

    Are you done building? It looks pretty good except for a few things. You're missing alot of rocks and cover around the base. Also, The brace larges don't really look forerunner because of that stupid air vent texture, you should use something else for that. Some parts just look strange because it looks like you've redesigned certain areas. It's close to the original, but not close enough.

    Your right, it looks a little off to me as well, but with the pieces we have to work with, it is as close as possible. If you have suggestions for what to substitute for the brace larges I am interested. The budget is maxed out now or I would have placed more rocks. Maybe less trees would work since the original map had none?

    Try bridges. They have blank textures on Forge Island.

    Overall, I like what I see. I've never played the original Relic, but I'm sure this will offer a trip of nostalgia for a few members here.

    In my opinion, it looks much cleaner and much more like a forerunner structure. Those are Ramp XLs

    Your right, I seen that one too and I am curious to see where he takes it, however, I thought it would be rude to use the ramps like he did just because they look good. At the risk of making it look less than perfect, I will try something else like the bridges that Kaz has suggested, but thanks for the idea here Pa1nts, it is you that got me thinking of changing them.

    I tried using the bridges, but they did not look right to me, so I tried the ramps in a different angle that ArionSHFL was using and have gone with that. They are a lot cleaner looking, and cheaper! Cheaper in fact that was able to place more rocks and cover around the island, as well as other asthetics. Now i have Zero budget left, in fact, i used it up to exactly 10,000.

    I hope this meets your expectations, and hope you give it a download!
