Other projects which are still open will be finished another time or canceled. I have the inspiration back, time for a new CrystalMine!

EDIT


I think it is good to go! \o/

There are two versions available this time: A standard version and special (trance) edition.
The first one has music provided by UT community. The second one has very nice, and mostly relaxing trance music(non-vocal).

[Standard version]

Looking good! :tup:
I liked the previous CrystalMine you released here, so I'm looking forward to what you do with this one.

Players: 12-16

Is this multiplayer? Or will it be configured for MP and SP?

Multiplayer, like any other MH map of me. MH-CrystalMine3 is the absolute golden crown of my work but I'll try to max out CM-4 even more.

But if any of you feels up to the job to make it, feel free to do so. I'll support where I can. But rememer my hardskill lies at mapping for Unreal Tournament G.O.T.Y edtion ( DM / CTF / AS / DOM / MH and perhaps some other special gametypes. But the first 5 listed are mainskills - MH is my absolute skill. (I don't want to sound egoistic but many people are a fan of my MH work, if I may say it this way. I'm not the best, - just equal just like any other mapper around.).
Sure I can map for SP Unreal1 but need the support big time.

We could also if there is time for everyone, make a SP pack with all CrystalMines with upgraded archtexture , lighting and A.I at some points and /or make a Saga / Quadrology of it. If people can help me out with this, that would be absolutely great. Unreal SP can add another mappack to it's list. :)

Ah ... CM3[Final]-Terraniux.rar is in my vault so I must have played it as MH (+ 0 bots) and the fact that MH-CrystalMine3.unr is still in my maps directory implies that I liked it (although it doesn't ring a bell as yet).

Some roofs will be a little decorated more, grounds will have the classic, closed in feeling with loose wallstones and broken floor steps. Progress: 85% till first beta version.

Looks good - though make those flame textures translucent instead of masked to get rid of the black borders.

Yeah I know. The way it is now is fine, and translucent looks better. Actually want a even prettier fire texture if there is. I'll look into some texture packages. If any of you has (a) fine sugestion(s) please do tell.
Thanks for the tip anyway! :tup:

A new look on the mid-area, this should be more like it.
Some textures need upscaling and or alignment, details will come in the final versions.
Here a couple of screenshots, actual size is bigger since some parts aren't lightened yet.

More mining, less bases, bigger, and more to explore!

Building the final temple / boss stage at the moment. Perhaps one if the biggest you ever seen in Unreal Tournament.
I hope can squeeze this in the CM4 Main map along with the other parts, CM3 is huge, CM4 is going to like gigantic-titan-huge. I am sure it will all be worth in the end when we are all playing the final edition.

There is going to be water everywhere, but I'll do that at the end.

All walls that have the current brown stone texture, will be black just as CM3. To enhance, and make more vivid/bright colours. Here is a mylevel-test-map-screenshot. Current colours aren't definitive but, It creates a pretty cool effect:

The map looks tasty so far!
I like the concept, especially the mine theme.
I've just bought a geode, so I am in da krystal mood!
