Gradient
Created by Adman00 (aka Mallet)

Gradient is different from most foundry maps you'll see because, rather than having just a simple flat floor, Mallet perfectly demonstrates interlocking objects by creating hills and mounds. There are two bases and several raised areas overlooking the map providing extra cover. The map itself is quite small because of the amount of resources needed to make the floor, which makes it perfect for fast paced games.

nice idea... but yea... it does make the map look messy

also, i thought a panorama was a shot which continued a certain picture (like a class photo where there are too many people) not a shot which shows to different pictures (without a common reference point) blended together...

Sarge is right, infact we veto your map just because you misused the word panorama. Joking.

Anyways the map does look messy, but it seems it would play fairly well.

Thats what he did, its just like a class picture. he basically snapped 3 or more photos on the same axis and cropped them together.

As for the map, i like the idea but i agree that it looks kinda messy. I have to give your props though because i can only image how much time this actually took to make.

OOOH I see it now.... I thought he took 2 pics of the outside then took one pic of the inside of a room he made or something... my bad

[bkbillsfan]

it is a great concept. i hadnt even though about doing that. i suggest you space your pics. it makes it easier to follow that way. the map itself looks like it would have taken hours to set up. is the ground smooth or do you get stuck when you run around.

[Mallet]

Yeah I know the walls are pretty ugly looking (messy), but ingame its not as bad at all. I added some ingame pics which hopefully look a bit better:







It took maybe 6 or 7 hours, did it in two sessions.

And bkbillsfan its all smooth, there was a bumpy joint but I put the "sniper" area thing there. Theres maybe the odd really little bump.

[color=orangee]I think its very unique. As a matter of fact, I want to play a round with you sometime! 99.9/100!! lol

This looks fun, unique, and refreshingly different. Unfortunately, I seem to be unable to find the dl link.
