    I here, present to you, surf_fog!
    A project for the community.

    Hey people,
    as of lately, I've been working on a surf map, where i will try to focus just as much on the design, as the gameplay.
    By design, i mean something that will stand out from other maps in some special ways, especially in the surroundings.
    I will try to aim as much as possible, to keep the map with the fog theme colors on the walls and such.

    Q & A:
    Q: Stage surf? A: No
    Q: Tier? A: Aiming for 2, maybe 3.
    Q: Testers? A: If you wish to join in as a Tester, you will only have to state your playtime & rank in this thread, then i will pick some of you out.
    You will need to have your steam account connected to this forum.


    What I'm looking for from you..
    Please give all the feedback you can, i will answer ideas & questions/concerns.


    A few level previews: (not final)

    Fix Credit Room.
    Make Bonus Stage.
    Fix light around the map.
    Optimize map.
    Showoff map in a video.
    Have the map tested.

    Nice work man, looks really good.
    I would enjoy to test it.

    Currently ranked 133 (Pro)
    Playtime can be seen in my signature ( thats all surftime + maybe 1 day on my smurf )

    Question:
    How long is the map approximately?

    Thanks man!
    Thank you for applying to the testers team, i have added you to the list in this thread.
    Sorry for the late answer, it has been a busy weekend for me.

    I'm not sure, as i have only completed approx. 30% of the map, but I'm guessing the end time would be around 1 minut for standard players.
    Right now it only lasts for 15 sec (with shortcuts though).

    Heres the new nightsky btw:

    Re-Bump. As many of you may know (or not), i did not have a computer for a very long time, so i couldn't continue with the map.
    Luckily i had a backup of the project! ;)
    I've been wanting to post a video-preview of the map, but since i don't have anything installed on this computer yet,
    (fraps, after effects etz.), i'll show a few screens.

    If you happen to have a nvidia GPU use "shadowplay" instead of fraps. It is only for nvidia gpus (that are higher than the 600 series but i assume you have that).
    Its better in general and can save the last (for example) 10mins of what you did. (really usefull for admin shinnanigans)

    You could also use a play.tv if you have a semi high end AMD :)

    Sweet, I'll look into that! :)
    Christmas is upon us, so is my vacation. I was unable to make my pc fit in a bag, so I won't be able to work on the map the next couple of days.
    Merry christmas tho!

    If i remember correctly he dropped that project due to the files being corrupted.
    Im not 100% sure tho, but i think i've read that somewhere.

    I was lucky, i found an early backup file a few months ago on a USB, so it was really just a minor setback.
    But right now I'm working on some other projects that i need to finish first. I will look back at this soon again.
