A rather experimental map by me, still I cant get myself to ignore the looks which I should.

In any case, this map is unlike anything I've seen, it looks nice and gameplay...
well.
No idea actually, I have a feeling this can become a very good map to play, because of its one unique theme.
Some people will love it, some people will hate it, thats for sure.

The main idea is a large open chamber, with a few walkways and 'air pits'. Many pits in the ground with grates covering them, each pit has an emitter which represents the heavy winds coming out. You will lift up and fly!
But it isn't as easy as it looks like, its pretty hard manouvring right in the Airstream. In the middle of a airpit or vent you can get higher up, on the edges you wont be as fast nor will you get so high.

That looks great, Bulska, though I have one question. Did you use your DM-B-Ancient skybox/backdrop for this one. The trees look almost identical...

the trees are directly from DM-B-AncientArena, but they're not in the Skybox.
The skybox itself comes directly from DM-B-Biakva, an older map of me.

I got no download link yet, it looks finished but its far from. I always do the looks along with the rest.

The airstream part is done so far, but the walkways arent. Bots have no clue what to do and I still need to add some pickups and such on the edges.

You can use JumpSpots for the bots to know what to do. Of course, forced PathNodes would work better since then players wouldn't accidentally hit a JumpSpot and go flying off where they didn't want to.

Jumpspots are path thingies, not jumppads, things that make you go up.

I'm gonna use jumppads too, in other places to get up more quickly then using the airstreams.
