hi guys this is my first map here on forgehub:) this map took me about 8-10 hours to construct. this map is intended for slayer, oddball, juggernaut, and KoTH. the standard versions of all of these game types should work. now what you all really want to see screen shots.
this is the main staircase and theres me running for the sniper
this is the overveiw from the top level. to the left where i am there is a shotgun
this is the downstairs overveiw. where the fusion coil is there is two hallways to the sword. also at the end you can see the construct esq lift to the second floor.this is me using a special hole in the floor designed to use with a grav lift like an elevator .this is a view of the sword spawn and it also shows a staircase to the second floor.this shows the rocket spawn (far right near the wall corner) and also to the far left is the uperpart of the construct esq lift.now because i wanted to make a skylight type area above the main staircase it is possible to escape the map with the grav lift however there is no way back in so i recommend not going out there. also i like the look it gives having a big open ceiling.the main staircase again but at a better angle.
ok so there you have it, Solace a great FFA map. thanks to my neighbors and FoodManChu for helping me test the map. also on this map i used a lot of interlocking cause i noticed how you guys rip people up for messy maps.

One person said i didnt have a weapons list so here it is.
swordx1
shotgunx1
sniperx1
rocketx1
BRx10 i think
Carbinx1
Maulerx1
smgx2
spilerx2
bruteshotx1
plasma nadex4
spike nadex4
frag nadex2

here is the new link which has everything from before plus i added in VIP and multi flag CTF.

your first map holy hell, its nicely made i specifically like the skylight effect you have going on i never thought about foundrys roof like that before it looks nice ill download. And let me just say again congratulations on having a succesful first post / map good job hope to see more from you ** edit**

Oh im also glad you added all of the FFA gametypes my only gripe is your A + B signs they could have been locked into the wall making it seems smoother but its not a major importance

I don't know how to start this Miniview on this map. I really wish I had my Xbox back because I want to have a closer look at this map.

This map looks like a really nice map, nothing too much bad I can say about it looking at these screen shots. The only thing I would suggest you modify about the post is perhaps cleaning the post itself up a bit. The bold font is a bit confronting and using capitols and full stops with paragraphs will make the post more pleasing to the eye. Some people may just pass this map because of the post.
One other thing I would suggest about the screen shots is to try get some kind of overview shot if possible. But all that isn't really important =P

From what I can tell from the map itself it looks very well made with good use of interlocking. One thing I would suggest you do is to make it impossible to escape the map, honor rules in maps aren't always fun. Of course if you don't have items to do it it could be a problem, perhaps just raising the double boxes so you can't get out.

I just noticed that you don't have a weapons list in your post, which once again is not necessary but I would like to see anyway. So I can't really judge any kind of balancing issues this map may have.

Apart from everything said I really want to try this map out, it looks really good. Can't wait to try it out -Qued Download- =]

This is a great first map post =D

EDIT: As a side note I really do love the skylight effect you have in this map, I may just have to "pay homage" to this effect you have =P
