Got Curves? 1.02

A very pretty map, one that takes good advantage of Aleph One's lack of line-of-sight problems. A very curvy map (surprised?) with (pretty amazing to me) not a single platform.

Lush Supersuite v1.2

7 levels, ranging from huge to tiny. Some take inspiration from Bungie levels (you'll know by the name), some are entirely original. All are well-constructed, and provide nicely for heavy carnage.

Pong

Very clever- amazing it hasn't been done before.This one's a lot of fun. It is what it sounds like - you (and your opponent) are the paddles, missiles are the ball. The missiles can't hurt you... but if you miss one, the crusher that it triggers can... A blast.

Chokin' on the Splinters v2.0

A multilevel, familiar-feeling map... but you haven't seen this before, at least not in this form. Lots of tight spaces, good flow... but also easy to get trapped, easy to find yourself in a corner.

Cathode Ray Photosynthesis v1.0

An enormous map, with at least 3 distinct levels, all cleverly linked. Absolutely an Aleph One map... huge viewing distances, lots and lots of polys. For all that, getting around isn't too bad (as long as you don't get stuck underground).

Arthur vs. Makbeth 1.5

A huge map, several large, open areas connected by tight, twisting corridors. Lots and lots of baddies for solo play - maybe too many for net play (they all regenerate) - you get baddie jams in hallways. Otherwise, an interesting level - some fun strategy stuff can be done.

EwgaPax

Wow. One netpak, 77 levels. Yep, that's right, 77. Mostly pretty good ones, even... some novelty stuff, and at least one that really needs Aleph One (the last one)...

Gladiator Station

A tight level, space station? Lighting is very nicely done - dark, but plenty of detail. Some really fun eye candy. A save term (very odd for a net level!). Unmerged on purpose, so you can add whatever physics you like. More weapons and ammo than you can shake a pfhorstaff at. Be careful with that SPNKR... you're more liable to hurt yourself than you enemies!

Brain Fade

A large Evil map, with a nice combination of claustrophobic spaces and wide-open arena-like areas. (Too many big weapons for the claustrophobic spaces, imo... but some folks like that.) Some line of sight problems if played under normal Evil, but it works without a hitch when using the Evil Addon for Aleph One. Go nuke someone!

Pfhor Years and Seven Months 1.5

Mostly dark, and mostly underwater (okay, sewage). A few walkways on the surface... beware of grenades knocking you off. Plenty of ammo, but no O2... so you gotta kill each other before you run out. (Shouldn't be too hard.)

Carnage Among Enemies -SDL-

An Aleph One/SDL conversion of Carnage Among Enemies. Converted by Craig Caroon.

Rising Sun -SDL-

An Aleph One/SDL conversion of Rising Sun. Converted by Craig Caroon.

Simplici7y Contest Entries

In April/May 2000, bungie.org held a mapmaking competition in which the goal was to make the most interesting map with only 7 polygons. The top 7 maps won prizes...

Richard's Ten

A pretty amazing nethop pack, in that all the maps are quite good on their own - so 10 of them together is mindbending. These maps are medium-to-large, but still playable by smaller groups - flow is quite good overall.

Static Fury

A largeish arena, with some fun sniping areas, and the odd trap. Play is surprisingly good - it's been a while since I fired up a Marathon 1 netmap, and this one feels right. Worth a look! Comes with a physics model that allows the pistol to be used for sniping.

Stadious Maximus

A huge, sprawling, dark level. Flow isn't as smooth as it could be, due to lots of water areas with limited exits, but once you learn the layout, you should be able to get around fine. Merged with a custom physics model called 'Cyborg Standard' that beefs up both the baddies and the weapons. Pretty hard on normal, as a practice level... pretty sparse, netwise, with less than three players. You gotta love that second trigger on the SMG, though... BLAM!

Clovis' Mausoleum v1.1

A fragment of a solo map, overhauled for net play. Has some interesting flow, and plenty of weapons (and baddies for practice). This version REQUIRES the TI Addon for Aleph One... it plays very nicely under it. 3-5 works really well.

Carnage Time Arena - BNG Rugby v3.0

A simple, diamond-shaped map with a raised walkway down the center. Teleporters at either end let you jump back and forth between the areas separated by the walkway...
