I made a map using a "stain glass" photoshop filter to make a cool elevation effect.

Heightmap

Coloration

What it looks like in person. This is a view from VOXED, I don't have server powers yet so I can't try it in-game.

This isn't an official map release, I just thought it looked cool :D

wow with a smaller glass tiling and a little more varience this could make a really wicked desert crack height map for a low-level area.

Looks like a re-do of Jungle.

I like. Fight above, fight below.

I want to play nao!

Do want.

Here's the map file if anyone has special server powers and wants to host it :) (it's called lakebed.vxl)

i love custom maps :D

Looks very cool! Somebody host this :3

I don't have server powers yet so I can't try it in-game.

Run server.exe, type in the name of your map, 1, <whatever>, 'n' so it doesn't show up on the master server list.

You shouldn't need to open any ports since it just collects internally in your machine (although if you have a program that watches net connections that might react, I forget).

(This doesn't let you actually see how it plays with other people, but you can take in-game screenshots, and you can experiment with tunnelling and shooting things and etc.)

Holy shit nothings! Thank you! Do... do you want to marry my sister?

So after walking around this map I think it would play pretty nicely. The gaps are small enough to jump without using bridges, but they're wide enough that you could slowly creep towards intel using them (I'd say they're about 10 blocks below the surface level). You'd be constantly paranoid about finding the enemy lurking in some damn crack somewhere :D
