Surf Elysium (conversion for tf2)
Well, after doing a couple days worth of research and only finding 2 people who privately converted this map, I decided to take it into my own hands and do one for the community. I present to you:
Surf Elysium
Bah, who the hell am I kidding? This map is fucking HUGE and was a bitch to convert. But, with all said and done, I finally got it finished between work and sleep and people begging me to play it during alpha conversion stages. (And the fucking water textures not wanting to cooperate).
Anyways, on with the juicy shit:
Map Info:Tier 5
4 stages, 1 bonus
Wr's: I have no clue. I don't surf on CSS enough anymore to give a justifiable answer.
Average surf time: At
least 1:30-1:45-ish no fail, but I've yet to see somebody do it other than Raiin.
Size: 37,875,192 sq. ft. (For you mappers out there, pretty much the whole damn 2D grid).
As far as the bonus goes, it's hard. From my best judgement (as far as how the map was designed), Sacred would want you to surf the map before being able to access the bonus; so I left it as such.
A lot of people say it's the Surf_Overgrowth sequel, some say it's a rip off...but as far as surfing goes, it's got beautiful aesthetics and architecture. It's a smooth surf, hardly any glitches at all. This was a very well made map even before I got a hold of it. (Had to adjust a few things according to tf2 player sizes, but that comes with any conversion).
All credits go to SaCreD91. This is his map alone and probably his best yet. If you know him, or see him around, give him props for this hard ass map. Until then, enjoy.
