    3rd proper map I've made so far and i'm not sure if the are getting better :/

    if you aren't familiar with the first two they are Gatecrasher which is an invasion map. And Overkill which was more of an all purpose map!

    The third map is called Catwalk Catastrophe and it is a straight forward team/FFA slayer map. I added oddball and infection for fun but haven't tried them out yet to see how well they work.

    The map is quite complicated but at the same time open so you should always have somebody in your sights at any given time. And should be able to see a few background fights going on for good measure!

    it really isn't as complicated and intricate as it first appears and it is in face quite a small map. It's just set over several layers.

    would be interest to see if people think it works or not.

    simply visually amazing. how did you get those boxes to glow? is it simply a orange light, or is there more to it?

    Please don't name your map after sidewinder if its not a remake, it gets king of confusing to most long time halo players, at least not one of the more prominant halo CE map it would be like me making a map on the rock and calling it "Blood Gulch". Any it looks like very well made map, it has fairly interesting geometry, aesthetics, and various levels, i'll have to download it to check out the gameplay, you did a great job as far as I'm concerned

    He used one way shield doors and put it right in the surface of the box

    You really shouldn't be reading spoilers you know

    thanks very much. Glad you found it aesthetically pleasing. Working with platforms and multiple layers is awkward to say the least :p

    and as Spartan chief said i did use one way shield door close to the surface of the blocks creating the nice glowing effect. Very easy to do, try it yourself!

    and i completely forgot about the other sidewinder map. That is a stupid mistake to make :(

    guess i am in need of a new name then. ideas on a postcard?

    Interwebz maybe? or level 42?

    naming maps is the hardest part for me....
