DmRadikus

DmRadikus (a.k.a. Radikus) is a Deathmatch map for Unreal.

Map description[]

A Sunspire-esque castle, Shane's specialty, with plenty of areas of interest, which are colored in the map below. The map makes heavy use of the Warpzones, connecting plenty of areas with this feature.

The red area is the North area, which holds two subzones: the North zone (the octagon at the very north of the map) and the Trap area (in the middle). Overlooking the Trap area is the Balcony, which holds a Rifle and a DP powerup. The former is an octagon with two levels and a warping pool (we'll call it Round room). The blue area is the Shrine area, it contains three levels, one of which is secret (see Tips and Tricks) and holds plenty of material; the other two are connected by way of a platform. The Shrine area is connected with the Outside area in both the lower and middle levels. The middle level leads to two balconies overlooking the area, there's also a third balcony straight from the entrance, while the lower level has a passage which splits in two entrances; aside of these balconies, this area hosts a water river with a bridge over it. The Outside area is connected to the west via river with the West Chamber (light yellow), to the east via river with the East chamber (cyan), and to the south to the Dark passage, which contains a teleporter and also leads to the Bridge and teleporters area (both of these areas are colored in light orange). This last area holds three of the level's warpzones (Bridge left and Bridge right are teleporters while Bridge is a pool which can only be entered with the Jump boots from the lower level).

The warping pools and teleporters are two-way and connected in the following way: Round room-Bridge; Balcony-Water left; Water right-Bridge left and Dark passage-Bridge right.

Tips and tricks[]

At the Shrine area, in order to reach the upper level, place yourself in the Armor position, with the Jump Boots (you need two jumps, so don't use the boots until this point), and then do a rocket jump, taking care of the place where you shoot. You can't do this just with the boots due to the required height, so you need an additional boost.

Trivia[]

The map was considered for Unreal Tournament, and in fact appeared, untouched, in the betas. Needless to say, it didn't made the cut.
The map had a hidden level entry text: "Let's get it ON!!!!!"
Levelshots for the map were added in the OldUnreal version 227j patch.
