CTF-Avali-DC v1.0

2015-07-17
Edit of CTF-Avali-2K4 for the Disastrous Consequences server by Jefe.  The original map was made by Frank Bakker Aka. Noz / NozzeM.

Like many massive CTF maps, they play very slowly in invasion mode unless everyone is in one part of the map.  And in general it can be difficult to get to that area during later waves so you're often stuck watching the map instead of playing.

To make this map play better for invasion, I removed the underground cave system.  People liked to use the lone Nali house as a base, so I set up two more houses at former cave entrances.  I also redistributed weapons (some were only underground) and enhanced the powerups (nali fruit now heal 50 instead of 25.)  I also redid the antiportals to help with FPS/lag, and fixed the opacity issues with the foliage and did some other optimization steps, like reducing the foliage fade distance and density.

I put a couple of raptor spawns in it for INV use.  As usual, I do try to balance whatever I add to team-based maps, but your mileage will vary if you want to use it for VCTF. (It will likely be challenging without some weapon changes, since there are no good raptor defensive weapons near the flag bases.)
