    This map has been released. You can find it here.


    This is my latest project which is heavily inspired by Epitaph from Halo 3 (but it is not a remake). If you're interested in testing the map with me, leave your gt here or friend me on xbl (gt: CyborgAnthro). I usually get on starting around midnight EST or if that's too vague we can work out a specific time and day to test. I'd also like to hear thoughts on the design even if you don't want to test. To get the conversation started, what about Epitaph did you like and dislike so I can think about how to improve the original concept.

    Here are some pics:

    And the interior shots:

    As you can see from the man cannons, the map is supposed to have a clockwise flow on the outside, but more tactical lines of sight on the interior.

    So far there is very minor lag in the main hall from ONLY one side to the other (and not the reverse view of the same objects) and I can't figure out why. I have blocked off the background scenery and I'm stumped as to why this would only occur from one side and not the other.

    Anyway, thanks in advance for the comments and again leave your gt if you'd like to help test.

    @Willwind: I'm not sure I'll be able to do it during the day but maybe tomorrow at night around midnight EST, which I believe is 10pm your time. Hopefully thats an ok time for you guys. I'll send you both a request either way.

    This is a reminder that I am hoping to test this map tonight at midnight EST (in a little over an hour). Since it had fallen onto the second page I hope this allows new people who might be interested to see it. No huge time commitment is required, possibly only 3 or 4 games since this is early testing. Just send me an friend request, I am about to get online now.

    Sorry if this counts as a bump but I figure in discussion it doesn't matter as I am not trying to get downloads.

    Well, if you want an opinion on Epitaph, I played that map a good 2 years before getting a solid grasp on its layout. Dont know if this is helpful or not...

    It is helpful. I tried to make the layout more understandable with more distinguishable areas than epitaph ever had. Get online inferi! :D and anyone else who wants to run some games on this map I'm waiting for more people to start....

    @rms8: It's undergoing some tweaking after initial testing. It would have been further along but I've been away from my xbox for the holidays. I get home in a few days so I'd say you can expect it in about a week. Thanks for the support!

    @inferi: I'm sorry I never got back to you. I've been out of town but I'll invite you next time I test if you're on.
