Other Lush Clear Client Side Custom Shapes

I got the idea for this map while I was testing another map.. I made a flag that was in team 0 by mistake.. and then it occured to me to make a stadium and place flags at each end like goals and a flag in the middle for the ball.
after many suggestions and comments I have come up with what I hope will be a fun map..
Only one thing that needs to be done server side.
You will have to change server prefs where it says $Host::TeamName0 = "Unassigned";
to $Host::TeamName0 = "Football";
or whatever you want the ball to say.. : )
thats it.. : )
enjoy....
oh and of course the stadium is custom made..

If this looks interesting I could make the stadium alot more detailed. I figured for a basic fool around map the base didnt need to be pretty. I could add some things like maybe bleachers and hash marks on the grid iron.. : )
I just wanted to get this out while the thought was fresh in my head.. : )
I hope it is fun to play, I have played it with friends and I personnaly had a blast.. It helps alot with shooting practice and trying to shoot the ball out of the opposing teams grasp is more fun than actually shooting them.. : )
I have noticed that for some reason the nuetral flag takes awhile longer to return to the stand then a normal flag.. unless I am just confused on the return time.. : )
also the base is a little glitchy, I had to make one half of the base and then just join the two together in the middle.. I ran out of room in worldcraft.. : ) the grid is only so wide.. :)
oops.. so every once in a while you will notice the flag in the center disappeer.. its still there just depends on how you look at it since light leaks through the joining section in the middle..
oh well.. its just for fun anyways.. :)

My word.. 229 people downloading this map, and not one comment? That's horrid.. ;-) Unfortunately, I have an analog modem, and so am constrained to the lowly life of BOTmatching, or I'd give this a try.. have to say, though, that the idea itself is worth at least a few comments... (wonder why others have declined?)

Very Nice map. I am currently working on 5 Football maps as well, and me and another person are working in partner-ship to make the Football mod, which hopefully will be compatable with all football maps including this one. Also, Berk, I'm asking if you would like to work in partner with me to make more football maps? :)

It depends on the work. : ) I am mainly a worldcraft type of mapper. I dont know anything about modding(scripting) so about all I can do is make worldcraft stuff..
I am working on new stadiums if thats what you mean. When I am finished I will try to get some pics posted.. : )
I am glad this is becoming a well used map. I really made it just for fun so I am glad that has worked out and people are running with the idea..
Thanks again for all the comments and I will tryt o get more stuff out soon... (Damn school) : )

I can't make a big enough smiley face for this. But just to try and see... (bear with me if this doesn't work...)
