Metropolis

[lambda-11235]

A ctf map. One of my main concerns is performance, so if someone with a potato for a computer could comment that would be great.

[lambda-11235]

Windows may need to be redone. RE can't handle that much geometry. It slows map loading down to a crawl (>15s).

[no-lex]

Few things:

• Zip files should be completely flat so the game can load them (this means no folders at all)
• The reason the map takes so long to load and remip is the ond count (octree nodes): this map has 6,489,776 (compared to error with 152,472 or auster with 170,992)
• The occlusion on this map is quite terrible, with the windows allowing clear visibility between bases. You will need to reduce the occlusion issues (perhaps by blinding some/most windows and adding blocking geometry) in order to improve performance, as this map is already at the low end of what I'd consider acceptable.

Current TODO list

• Fix problems with envmaps.
• Fix texturing on stairs in each teams building. Right now the textures are rather harsh against the concrete.
• Add more room features to the four buildings surrounding the central one.

The new update requires a custom mapmodel. Put lambda-11235.zip in ~/.redeclipse. I'm not sure if unzipping is necessary (I don't think so).
