Daredevil First map I'm deciding to post here. It's called Daredevil because it's mostly centered around 3 jumps, the 2nd one being the highlight of the track. You can just use the RACETRACKS gametype, but I'd change the amount of points to win from 10 to maybe 5 or 3, since it's pretty long and fairly difficult. People that are good at racetracks probably won't have any trouble, but some of the people I was testing it with died a few times so I dunno Download Map - Daredevil Download Gametype - Short Race And of course, some pictures... Start of the race... A double wall will spawn after 20 seconds. And they're off! The first big jump! Land the jump, make it to the turn. A small hole can be passed by or jumped over. Jump over 4 kill balls - you better go over this smoothly, or else you won't make it... Survive that, end up here, at a smooth U-turn. Enter this tube here... ...Exit here! Out of the tube path to the 3rd and final big jump. Almost at the finish line... And here we are! And two simple overview shots. Not pictured is a small spectator area, that you go to only if you die or try to cheat. Also, the race is designed for only 6 people, but any others in the party should be sent to the spectator area. I hope you like this, it's the first map I've made on Sandbox and I'm pretty happy with it.
Well this is a pretty decent racetrack. My only problem is that in some parts the track isn't wide enough such as the "tube" and the finish line. I like that mini jump and the big kill ball jump, nice touch. overall 4/5, just widen the track up a bit.
I would suggest getting rid of the U-TURN. It's very annoying in a race track map, and will definetly interrupt gameplay if say you flip off your mongoose and it goes flying out or gets stuck or whatever. Overall not spectacular, but still looks smooth and worth a dl. Good job 4/5.
It isn't really much of a harsh turn, you can go around it without losing much speed. I'll look at it though, just in case other people have a problem with it.
I like this map for the fact that it is something different... the forge skill isn't good lol but the track ideas are nice and fresh... lol... but yeah i'm going to try this out..
The U-turn is ok, but i'm not fond of them. Iwould suggest adding some more walls on the outer edge. The map looks pretty good and at points it isn't wide enough for teo mongoose (or mongeese idk). overall it's a pretty good map. 4/5
nice job. looks smooth and the jumps are EPIC. this map is like a race track that was like "hay jumping maps can i haz teh steriroidz???" And the jumping maps were like "hell ya!" So it makes like uber smooth, uber jump, and uber tubes (ryhmes =D). 5/5. this is a CLASSIC.
GREAT GREAT GREAT racing map. I DL'd and i have absolutely no complaints besides that i spawn on an upside down golf hole...way far away from the track for some reason? What is going on here?
Ok this map is pretty bad in terms of forging skill but is actually quite entertaining. My big complaint on it is the transition after the checkpoint because it makes you hit a wall, then when you ride down and back up the double walls it is horrible the angle you hit it at makes you lose all your speed... Then quite often you land wrong on the jumps and it either takes all your speed or it flips you. Other than that this map is quite fun jumps are always good =)
Are you in Forge? If you are, then you'll spawn there because that's where the respawn points are. It's kind of like a spectator/loser spot, for if you die on the track. I think you may just be going off it weird, I've never had that problem with all of the people helping me test it. Not trying to disprove your critisism, but I don't know... Maybe your just not going off it at full speed?
Small update - I fixed a part the could potentially lead to some cheating, and added a seperate game type - Short Race. It's essentially RACETRACKS with 5 laps, and you can only die twice, so if everyone fails, they can just kill themselves to start a new round.
