Another New Map.

This time it's CSite by Altair.
I like this one - a simplistic level with clean lines and very low r_speeds (peaking at about 550!). Ideal for internet deathmatch. I feel it shares an aesthetic sense with BBCity; both are sparse and refined.
See what you think!

New Map.

In between exams and the odd, tiny, bit of mapping (and Q3A and UT!) I've had time to correct the archive errors and upload City At War 2 by Andrew Wills.
Hope you enjoy it.

Free Textures.

Thanks to moore+ I've put up a little free textures link page for your perusal.
Thanks moore!

Bleugh!

Is that a word? Who knows or cares. I'm in the middle of exams at the moment (8 hours or so done, 13 or so to go!).
Still making good progress on the mapping front. Lots of nice ideas bouncing around re Beta3 as well. And future projects.

Regarding the site: I've actually put together a map archive page, even though they're on the sidebar. This is because the sidebar won't be big enough :)
It's pretty basic at the moment, but it's here.

Helpful link!

This'll be helpful to those who don't know about AHL's entities: a handy index and fgd file.

Pulling a map.

I'm going to have to pull ActHotel for the moment as the author MadBear used another mapper's textures without permission. Fortunately someone was missing the .wad so I was able to find out and talk to the author in question. Try not to do that, it's not fair.

Axel, author of Ccity1, also sends word that he's working on a smallish map at the moment, which he won't be finishing soon :)

At this point I consider putting index.shtml in my Startup directory.

Here's a pic of what I'm working on at the moment... a little snowy map... the pic is taken in Worldcraft.

Someone help, I can't stop!

I've actually got exams coming up in... two days, and I'm here doing updates and getting the page moving. Why, you ask? I'm not so sure myself.
Miscellaneous fiddles, and since apparently it's OK to engage in self-p1mpage, I'm posting a pic of Dojo in the 'Lights, Camera...' section, as well as a shot of Stinger's conversion of City.
Submissions are welcome. Please make them maps though ;)

Update Frenzy!

I've done it again; modified the logo to fit better and look just as dandy :)
Oh Mr. Goat, why do you waste your time I hear you cry? Well, Gordon Freeman just isn't action. Carianne, ResDog, SAS and the like are. So there you go!

I've repaired all of the links I could find as well, and started listing the maps on the left there. If you have any preference as to filenames or full titles, then voice them now!

While writing this update, I've also archived the news, made miscellaneous HTML improvements, and generally had a fiddle (including cutting down on the pics). Hope you appreciate it :).

You just can't stop me! First update of the Millennium.

Making updates, that is. I've swapped the date to British standard as I'm the only one who makes regular updates :)
That means day, month, year; in order of increasing length. Makes sense, yes? :)
Keep checking the Map Archive for new maps; they're coming thick and fast.

Got another new logo for you - may put it into use at some point.

EDIT: New logo is up. Comments welcome. I'll probably edit it to fit better.

Last update of the century.

Well, thought I'd make an update before I go off to my New Year party and get very, very drunk.
Mr_Grim already has, so I hope he's looking after Dojo and ActcityA :)
I expect Beta3 will be out very soon, possibly even the first. We've got another map or two up as well. Some day I'll get around to making a list of them! That'll be momentous :)
I've made a few subtle site alterations as well... see the sidebar.

Take a look at what I spent 20 minutes of my time on at 3am this morning (just in from drinking):



Happy millenium all!

Another map, updates.

We've got another map in the archive at the FTP site: FinCity.
I think it's pretty nice :)

I've also sent ActcityA off to Mr_Grim, and Dojo's done (as it perennially is :))
Have a good new year everyone!
