1f:T791,

This is a medium-sized symmetrical map inspired by the Traxus Tower Atrium from the Exodus campaign level. I made a few changes for gameplay's sake (especially the outer walkways), but the overall layout is very accurate. There are some random bars I couldn't get rid of (the windows) and the height of the doors in the middle leading out to the side platforms are not as high as I would have liked. Some aesthetic touches have been added and others removed (unfortunately no trees in the back of the map). I also did not get to make the atrium itself as wide as in the campaign, but the length is adequate.

I believe this map has a good balance of gameplay and aesthetics. My personal favorites on this map so far are slayer, headhunter and one-flag. Anyway, let's get to the pics:

Here is a view from the upper blue spawn area, where you enter the atrium in the campaign:

This is beneath the previous level, leading to the fountain staircase:

Shotgun location, just like in campaign:

From behind the grav lift which launches you to the top of the fountain statue:

Here is the map from the outside (due to budget, I didn't elevate it as much as the tower in the campaign):

Some platform views from outside of the atrium:

Top mid, with sniper rifle in on the central walkway:

And finally, a view of the statue:

The weapons:
5x (or so) DMRs
1x shotgun
1x sniper rifle
1x needler
1x plasma repeater
1x plasma pistol
1x needle rifle
1x concussion rifle
1x grenade launcher

Since I have not tested all of the game types mentioned above I would appreciate hearing about problems you run into. Any general feedback would be great too. For example: How are the spawns, weapon choice and placement, frame rate issues, etc.? Thanks for downloading!
