!!! IMPORTANT !!!
This version is not working on ManiaPlanet4!!! I have uploaded new, working version and you can see it here : [RPG] Castle of Sorrow *MP4*

:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:__Hello MX!__:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:_:silver:_:gold:

  • This is my first, fully finished RPG track built on TM2 Stadium RPG Titlepack. You may have seen/played map with same name before built by me and that map contains 20% of this map. I released that version just to see how people will react on my building style. That version is hidden from MX and, hopefully, deleted from online servers :p

  • This map is full and final version of 'Castle of Sorrow'. Idea for this map came completely by accident. It happened 2 years ago while I was messing around in editor trying to figure out how it works. First, I wanted to create some kind of castle with large custom blocks from RPG Titlepack editor, and that turned out to look rather nice. I tried to make some path but failed completely and performed massive RQ from editor but, luckily, saved that piece I've built. After couple of days, I tried again and realised that rooms can be built inside of castle, so I started to play around with that. That gave me possibility to create path all around castle.

  • If you played previous version, and remember it, you can see how I progressed as mapper since that version had some cuts and scenery was very poor, which I didn't realise until map was played by other people online and once they gave me feedback I decided that it's time to upgrade that map, so I slowly started building the rest of the map, which was a mistake because I should've delete it and start all over again. The reason for that is because castle alone was built off grid, which was making a lot of trouble for me in mapping process, especially because I did not know how to use microspace very well back then. As I was going further with mapping, I realised that was mistake but decided to continue anyways since I believed it can be fixed with good microspace usage.

  • Now, 2 years later, I am very proud to present you my first RPG ! When you open map you will see that I used sentence 'This map was made for ¬мѡ» RPG Cup' which is not completely true. As I already mentioned, I started building this map 2 years ago when I did not even know that this cup will be played (it's impossible, right ? :p). I used that sentence because announcement of cup gave me motivation to finish this map and I changed almost 75% of it so it suits this particular cup. Info about the cup can be found here.

  • Map is completely illuminated which allows you to play it without any usage of headlights. Before starting this map please let all things to download (mod, pictures, sounds,...) so you can play it with complete pleasure.

  • Intro of the map is made by   Snake55wildcat. I know most of the players don't pay attention at intro, usually it gets skipped, that's why he made video and you can check it out here. In my opinion, this is one of the best intros I've ever seen. Sync of video and music is flawless, with some amazing shots (l) He also made this picture I used as map screenshot (fullscreen).

  • Map contains one big quest divided into 3 smaller ones to make it less confusing. All info about quest can be found at 3 market carts at start of the map. I want to thank   qqlele for helping me with setting up those quests :) If you complete all quests, you will get rewarded with planets prize ;)
    NOTE: Map version which is being used at ¬мѡ» RPG Cup server from 27/03 to 02/04 has bugged Green and Purple quests, Blue is fine. Those things are fixed in this version and everything works now ;)

  • This map is rather big (49 908 cc) which might cause some lags for players with low PC systems but every average PC system should be able to run it smoothly, if not, buy new PC :p I tried my best to keep the display cost as low as possible, I was really struggling with it because I want my map to have very nice scenery. :$

  • Author time is 8:58 but I expect World Record to be somewhere around 8min 30sec. Track is not very difficult but I've set difficulty to Advanced because you need to know some techniques and 'tricks' to be able to finish this map with decent time. It requires high level of focus because there are lot of dangerous places, such as jumps, landings, water jumps,...

  • That is everything I wanted to say about this map :) I wish you happy hunting and in the end I would like to thank   Snake55wildcat for creating this amazing intro,   Chocolleight for giving me feedbacks and ideas,   Hazard. for giving me feedback and   qqlele. Also, lot of other players participated in giving feedbacks which I cannot list because I don't remember them all, but if you were one of those people, thank you very much. If I forgot somebody, sorry :$
