A map for the Quake 3 Arena Modification "Urban Terror"

Description: An secret underground military base for military storage, communication and maintenance.

Minimum specs: GeForce2 or equivalent graphics card with 64megs. Pentium 3 500 MHz processor or
equivalent. Anything less will probably result in unplayable frame rates, although reducing geometric and texture detail and switching to 16-bit color will make the map less system-hungry.



How to play
-----------------
Unzip the .pk3 file into your Q3UT3 directory and enjoy!

Support


Please give me as much feedback as possible for this map. The purpose of this alpha is to get some feedback on layout and design. Of course to let everyone see my expertise. Just kidding. Any suggestions will be taken seriously and not offensive. I greatly appreciate the feedback.


Known bugs


Not all models are included yet (Some models are not completed yet or are being made by LT1 and myself)

Map needs serious fire cover (Too Empty)

Lighting needs some work (Yes, I'm aware there is light without light sources)

Need to work on the compile method (Ydnar)

Hinting needs a little more work (Not my specialty)

Textures aren’t aligned correctly in some areas,Textures are too repetitive and some textures need replaced or revised (One texture is missing on the roof which was fixed after the last compile)

Crusher doesnt work on elevator lifts

Importing the surfaces not completed

There is not a loading screen shot

There is no bot support

Some elements are missing from certain game modes
