The Dojo-- My idea for a teaching map

[Moo]

Well, I've come up with a basic idea for a teaching map, and added 8 courses to it. The map can be expanded to add more courses. I've also provided a [url=http://bmbanker.googlepages.com/TEACHERSREADTHIS.txt]TEACHERSREADTHIS.txt[/url] which explains all of the courses, gives them ideas of what they might include in their speeches, and gives an idea for a timelimit for that specific course.

Now, these courses aren't very hardworked on, as they are just "idea" courses. some of them you might want to keep, and some of them are useless. The map was built to follow the theme of the website in general.

In the main room, there is an "extra room" for each lesson. If you step into that "extra room," you will be teleported to the room relative to the lesson.

The latest pk3 can always be accessed [url=http://bmbanker.googlepages.com/thedojo.pk3]here[/url], but don't put it on any teaching servers until I am completely finished, because I AM not going to put version numbers on this map, because it shouldn't be in circulation at any servers o.o.

If you have the time, rate me on this map, and also please give me ideas for actual lessons.

Hmmm, It's a bit dark.

Yes, it was built to go along with the theme of the Ninjaz website.

Looks great, I dont know if you've seen other training maps like those for quake3 defrag but you're spot on with existing training facilities. I like the room descriptions, cause thats something the other training maps dont have. I'll check it out and say more then.

I don't think the room is too dark as I've tested it on nexuiz in pk3 file. This map is pretty good for training purposes and with the darkness, the players will stick out much more along with weapon training, laser jumps etc. The teacher can point at obstacles by shooting laser to show those learners. Which the laser will be very bright in front of the dark.

Nice job :)

Thanks.


Guys, I love the positive comments!! This map took almost two days, so it's not that big of a deal if I get bad remarks. (I was actually expecting to get bad remarks, but good remarks are good also XD) And remember, ideas are also accepted. :P

It is a nice map, that's true. Good job. I hope it will be added in some private servers too.

For normal gameplay? I'd have to redo the whole map lolz

No, maybe a 1on1 version...

O.O Nice, but in each room, I'd have to add an extra tele at the end so that the game won't be over as soon as someone goes into a tele and gets cornered. :P
