Old software engines like winwarp load super complex unvised limit-breaking maps with no trouble whatsoever and play blazingly fast even on my low-spec PC - arwop, ne_ruins, apsp3, catatonic, unvised dom3m1, you name it. For me, speed issues only come into play when using modern opelGL engines like Fitz, spasm, and RMQ. So the worst case scenario is I play it without fog or colored lights and send you old-protocol demos.

surely someone else can help you with vis.
If someone is up for it sure. But it's not finished and the last full compile I did it didn't have nearly as much detail and took over 24hrs.
But this was on an old CPU so I dunno :p

Haha, only 24 hrs? I"m sure jpl can regale you with tales of vising sessions. :P
I'm sure lol. I'm not claiming it's a record breaker :)
I'll Do It :)

I wish I could... really... but I can't anymore for some reasons...
... and I am not sure I'll be back on mapping before a long time :(

24 hours? That's nothing!
I had a map that the beta took 300, and thanks to some suggestions the next version was down to 240, only 10x your vis time! but, vis crashed twice, so first I wasted 200+ hours, then I wasted 160+ hours, and fiinnnally it completed a 240 hour run.
I'm almost angry reading your post. lol :)

Huh? I was just saying you have had much much longer vis sessions than 1 day. :)
damn tronyn, what kind of CPU was that compiling on? :/
Heh

a 3.4 ghz processor with 8 gigs of ram. heh.
still, compared to back in the day, vising and compilation is a lot better.

Started working on this last week. I've basically done the layout now, I just have to get the gameplay to not suck and put in dm and then it's done.
I kind of went overboard on curves - not very much fun to align all those textures :/

I'm considering doing dm6rmx to release at the same time because the map isn't very long, and neither is dm6rmx. If I do that, not sure I will release this year...
Looks Good

I wish I had the skills to make something like that good looking!
I vote for doing dm6rmx release simultaneously.

That is the plan. Not really touched dm6rmx yet though.
Spy: It's dm5rmx, but aside from sharing the layout and some of the textures, it's pretty different. The layout has been expanded a fair bit, but it's still kind of small.
Negke: It's called Round the U-Bend
