Details

Akar layout and pickups placement are originated from my UT3 level, DM-Mako L2. Therefore, it’s not a remake. I inspired myself on my older level to create something completely new. The scale as been adjusted to UT4 gameplay.

I’ve been approached to make some changes to DM-Akar for the competitive crowd. So, I present you the modified version for the competitive players, the Competitive Edition, aka CE. Here is what as been made for this version :

• Switched Rocket Launcher & Shock Rifle.
• Removed Lighting Gun, move the central Link Gun there.
• Moved the Bio Rifle where the central Link Gun was.
• Added another Link Gun where the previous Bio Rifle was. So the level as now 2 Link Guns. It sound weird but playing the map, it feels good.
• Removed the Enforcer and replace it with the UDamage.
• Added 1 x 25 health near the second Link Gun.
• Added 1 x 25 health near the Shock Rifle.
• Moved the 3 vials under the Sniper Rifle closer to the second lift exit.
• Moved the 3 vials near the water drain in a corner of the Shock Rifle floor in R1. In this version,  I move them a tad farther the concrete column.
• Add few barrels between the new Bio location and the central lift, to break some LOS.
• Add few barrels near Sniper Rifle again to breake the LOS coming from the stairs and the UDamage entrance.
• In R1, you could climb the concrete pillars and barrels near the Singer to get quickly on the Link Gun floor. In this version, I’ve made a ramp because I didn’t like the previous mesh work. Now, it’s obviously a ramp. It’s a little less wide than before and it is intended. Players can use it as a shortcut. Added some lights to that new ramp to clearly see the player.
• Made some ammo adjustments to reflect the new weapon base configuration.
• Open up the space above the central lift so there is more freedom while lift jumping.
• Rebuild lighting (production quality).
• Remade preview screen.

Note, for all my levels I use Temporal AA since it offers the best visuals.
