Just had this idea to redesign the lobby for a bit of fun.
The textures are not for definite, I'm planning and hoping I can use the original textures in a new high quality format which my girlfriend is working on. I love to see old memory's remade to look better so I'll see where this goes. Anyway just wanted to share.





i'll post more pics later

Quoting ice
Edit: Try replacing the blast texture with a high quality one.

You can't. Try it and you'll see why.

Tried it in REDMOD and it gets ugly-er

-edit: In fact I'm running redmod in the picture, you can see its ugly. I haven't removed it yet. Shame though.

-edit: More pictures... still messing around with the textures. I decided to stick with old RF textures but still working on them being high def. They're probably are not staying like this in the pictures but either way here some more pics. I don't want to change the way the game-play happens on this map so I'm not planning on adding extra areas like most versions would. The map is already great as it is Again I'm probably changing most of the stuff you already see. Like the sky-box I'm going to use a better city sky.

Edit: Another Picture of an original RF texture revamped.
This is just the beginning of what is to come! Just so you've got an idea.
My girl-friend is working on the textures, I'll be introducing her some more in the future. She is also working on REDMOD.

I have finished the lobby map now. But the reason I kept changing it is to balance the map out. Changing spawn locations and weapons. and fixing bugs and improving visuals. Trying to make it as fun, smooth, balanced and sexy as much as it can possibly be. I have heard some very good feed back from you guys and the amount of people who join is really good motivation. As-long as people continue to enjoy the new maps then I'll continue to keep making them

I just wanna say that the remake maps would not be no where as good if it wasn't for the user input and ideas I get from the community and a huge thanks to the pure-faction guys and huge thanks to faction files for keeping this game alive and awesome. I can't say thank-you enough!

Finally I leave you with some screen-shots for the guys who haven't been on RF for a bit. I would really like you to come back! and have a game with us. This is just ONE remake. There is more than just lobby!







Another one: I'll let you to guess what this one is.

Those maps look really neat. I've done a lot of touching up maps in RF (adding details everywhere while preserving the gameplay of a map) and as a result, I'm pretty excited to see how these turn out.

Thank-you very much for the comments

It's waste treatment plant with the train. I'm still working on more to come. Right at this moment I'm working on Hanger 18. It's a deep sea...Wait no spoilers! Anyway I'm having a lot of fun with it.

I do remember when you changed Desert sand. I did explain in more detail earlier but when I clicked post I got the l4u error and lost all the message.. How ever... in short because i get fed up having to type messages so many times due to the l4u errors lol.
I didn't get the full version ready for the release date. It was a strict time line. I disappeared for a bit. I can't remeber where i was. when I came back version 1.1 I think? was out and the map was changed, I didn't mind as it's better than the old unfinished version being put in. I did finish my version of the map. But I preferred yours, it felt better to play for me personally as playing a map entirely created by my self gets boring faster + I think you was allot more experienced than me so I was cool with that and I thought who better to fix it up lol. I also had another map which didn't make the release date and I never released it after. I think Bateman made a mall map which I liked. I dont think that got released. At the time I remember being busy working on other aspects of ISM and working with another bunch of guys on the Ultor corps Mod which sadly never got released, I was also running a clan -=U=- then changed into [-U-]clan. the good old days lol.

Thanks for joining Ice. I don't think i saw you though. I'm called Ric in game
If you come on your laptop again I'll be-sure to kill you first for easy points.

Or join a server that runs them if you have Pure Faction and it will automatically download.

Strange thing is Spike. Some people who use pure-faction can't download maps. Most can.
But every now and then some people join and ask where to download certain maps. The maps ARE on the downloader because I test it and people are downloading/playing them all the time but a very small amount of people can't or are not using it right. So i don't know? But i have been asked by a number of people if I have a site or a place to download the maps because of this problem or they are not downloading it correctly, I'm not sure.

Some people have only been able to join recently because Goober added them on the faction files main page. Was after that i became aware not everyone can or is using the downloader.

Anyway, You can find download links here: http://redfaction.levels4you.com/forum.php?do=view&t=264733

Yeah true, Im aware that some people don't use purefaction.
If they dont have purefaction, thats is why Factionfiles is available aswell because you can go to their site and download the map manually.

I think Ric had plans to make the Heli a little faster, so he told me a while ago.

I think it's the rats faction server that uses the lobby level and causes everybody in the game to be teleported. That's because the server doesn't use pure-faction, normal RF doesn't know how to handle the event in multi-player. I can't do anything about it. Except say use purefaction

There is a speeded up helicholopoler in the next version which is pretty much ready for release so look out for it soon. Only minor changes to try make the game-player better.

RIC - FYI that's why you should always save REDPF maps with the pdm or pctf prefix. Only PF servers can run them, so you don't have that problem. Just food for thought
