That should work just fine  Save the level, and run it should definitely show up in your KF maps list in-game. ;D NICE WALL DECORATING!  |

Also, make sure you're saving your map in the KF map directory, not the UT one. If you do, it won't be able to locate the KF assets. |

If you used the original textures from UT2k4, won't people have to dl those too or copy those folders into the KF texture folder? I thought it would be kickass to use the HELL textures for a map but I was afraid of this. Keep us updated, I'm interested. |

Mini update, After four false starts and trudging through a billion, trillion, gazillion ideas (  ) i've finally narrowed it down to one and got working on it today. Spent about 6 hours making the first hallway (  ) so it could be a while before i get the map up to scratch and release it as a beta. (Scapped the hilton level, now it's KF-Cave ). Gonna avoid using anything other than the KF textures and sm's for this map atleast (wouldn't want it not working on my 1st attempt ). Not a problem though, seeing as they're pretty versatile and cover just about everything anyways  . Again, thanks for everyone's help. |

Yeah, i considered doing St. James' Park as a map, but scrapped it cuz it would have to be huge and way beyond my skills. I suppose ya could make the trophy room (which would be pretty dusty anyways  - Owen will change that) and other rooms and have the pitch as a small part of the whole map (or just let players look out from the directors box at the top of the stands rather than let them on the pitch). |

I think a castle would be awesome. Need some bloody dirty castle bricks. ;D

You could actually do a castle map at the mo anyways. Use one of the brick textures and stick loads of blood static meshes over it... Not exactly perfect, but KF could do with a few new maps at the moment PS: Almost got the first room of the map finished (with some nice water in it). Elaborated on the original design and got a very good idea of what the final product is gonna look like . Should get the basics of the map finished (hopefully) within a fortnight and then another week to have it polished off. |

Mini Update #2 KF-Cave has been put on ice becuase it was becoming very repetive so i began a new map (KF-Lobby) last week and i'm very close to completion (just the difficult stuff left ) - I'll be able to post some pics of it within a week (if all goes well) Also, are there any console commands to spawn weapons when i am in a level? I really need to see how the other guns work in the map without spending ages collecting points to buy them... If there are any could someone PM them to me. Don't post them in here! Thanks, |

keep going !! no matter what screws it up dont be disheartened and carry on Got pissed off last night and decided to leave lobby alone for now as well (arrgh! - i see a pattern emerging...) Anyways, literally just before going to sleep last night another idea came to me (Why, i have no clue ) and set to work on it today. It's set in a previouly occupied train station. Got loads done in the last 2 hours. Good a feeling about this one so this time I will finish it. ;D |

Here's what I do mate.
Once you've got a map that you semi like....after several failed attempts....MERGE it with the failed attempts to create an even larger / better map!
KFS-01 from the single player campaign was the result of me trying to make a riverside environment and getting fed up, and deciding to merge it with KF-London....
So yeah....cool maps can emerge when you just let the creativity flow without feeling like you have to be tied down by a single "theme"
