Description
ttt_deus_ex_libertyisland is my first homage to the Deus Ex series, and in this case the first classic installment in the series which was released in the year 2000. I have always found simplistic graphics and low poly counts to have a really special charm, and love attempting to recapture that time-period in creations for more modern engines with some artistic liberties and new ideas. This is a generally near-perfect recreation of the first level featured in the game, though I have omitted some parts to cut back on size and complexity.

----

This map is absolutely massive, and recreating it gave me a real sense of how large some late-90s/early-2000s game design was. Unfortunately due to the way that I've decided to arm the map (with weapons placed in the breakable weapon crates featured in the game), there are some larger frame drops due to those weapons always being rendered even though they aren't visible until the crate is broken. I've got ways of fixing this hopefully, but this is how it stands currently. Playing in sandbox mode yields perfect FPS rates.

This map may receive updates in the future pending player feedback and whether or not I have time to do so. There's certainly a few ideas I'm planning on adding in future versions, and I have quite a few ideas for adding in innocent and traitor objectives to make the map more interactable.

I purposefully excluded some of the more linear areas of the level which served only for access to items and switches and dead-ends are almost always not advisable when designing a TTT map. With this in mind, I am actively brainstorming and accepting new ideas for increased interactivity in the map.

For anyone curious, I'll be most likely working on the UNATCO HQ building next.

----

This map features the following:

- Fully armed for up to 32 players
- 100% created with custom materials and models
- Accurate scaling and atmosphere true to the original
- Nostalgia for those who grew up playing fans of Deus Ex and of this level in particular

As always, thanks for downloading! Feel free to ask any questions and leave comments/criticism below.

Is it possible to remove the clouds in the skybox potentially ?

Jack around with the lightning a little bit, so it can match the original :)

yeah but the skybox/clouds absolutely did not look like that in the original game, they looked a lot better. i don't know what it is, but i think you've got the textures scaled down far too small such that they look so close together and to be repeating at a much greater rate than the original game. your map is absolutely great but the clouds are the one thing that is off, and based on the screenshots, quite detrimental to the visuals of the map

Unfortunately has a really terrible skybox that makes it impossible to play. Not a lot of detailing and a lot of repeating textures
