The Mountain Ridge Fortress (CTF-Mountainridge)
This Capture The Flag level was my contribution to
the "Mapper 2000" contest, which was organized by the
German online game magazine "Gamesweb" (I didn't got
among these first three places, and they never stated
the other ones).
The level is located on a mountain ridge with two fortresses
(of course). There are two possible paths between the
bases: One is very straight from one base to the other
by travelling on the ridge. However, you are in danger
because of the sniper posts that are situated above
the base entries. The other way is achieved by crossing
the "Ridge Bridge", a small wooden suspension bridge
which crosses the abyss. Here you will be safe of the
snipers, but you can get thrown off the bridge easily
by an enemy with a Rocket Launcher or a Shockrifle.
Although I wanted to achieve detailed geometry, I tried
to keep the framerate as high as possible. Only the
outside area between the bases has a low frame rate
and might not run perfectly on weaker systems.
As a little bonus feature I added support for the Domination
gametype. If you rename the file to "DOM-MountainRidge",
you can play it in Domination. However the level is
a bit too big for use in Domination mode, you just keep
running very long ways between the control points. Target
points are located at the flag bases and on the "Ridge
Bridge".
