Func_Msgboard: Modern Downtown/city Maps For Q1/Q2?

Posted by PikaCommando on 2015/07/30 10:13:54

Anyone know some good modern/futuristic city/downtown custom maps for Quake 1 and Quake 2 (can be either SP or MP, but preferably SP)?

I've been trying to make a downtown map in Trenchbroom now for both games, but now matter how I set up the brushes as buildings and streets, they just end up like Doom 2's Downtown level instead which looks nothing like a downtown.

That looks more like a techbase than a city.

There used to be a TF map that was based in a downtown city scene, but I 100% forget the name. Used to be pretty popular on the QW servers�

That was the town2 and town4 maps. There was also the fragtown series.

If you want to see brush based modern structures, get the CoD4 SDK (I think Raven hosts it), they include a sample map or three and most of those are in cities.

nah scar3crow it wasn't town2 or town4 ... TBH it may have actually been a CTF map. It was a downtown city street at night time, and was sort of an "L" shape if I recall correctly. Whatever, though - based on the timeframe it probably wasn't very detailed anyways. Most maps from back then are pretty primitive by today's standards haha

Also, filter the map list on Quaddicted for "city" or "realism" and you should find a few that more or less fit the theme.

It's 162 Actually

Malice features some futuristic city levels.

Mostly in the cutscenes, but they are the most primitive cities that you can imagine. YUCK!

Strangely enough the Kingpin and rtGnosis textures work quite well.

Yeah, like one of these two, maybe?

Interesting idea.

I've often thought that a setting similar to Dishonored would be an excellent backdrop for a modern re-mix of Quake.

I was just looking through the Kingpin textures wad the other day. There's a lot of potentially good stuff in it, but for some reason these textures are rarely used.

I wanted to do a Bloodborney Quake map at one point.

Victotian!

Skyscrapers

dicity looks great, almost what I am looking for. Looks so detailed and beautiful.

Victorian isn't exactly what I'd call modern or futuristic tho.

Also, I noticed in these maps on Quaddicted, why are there none that have skyscrapers, like in downtown NYC? The buildings in these maps seem to reach a certain height only. The big city featured in Malice's cutscenes are what I'm looking for.
