It's been quite a while since oldunreal had an overhaul, but we are moving to another server which require some updates and changes. The biggest change is the migration of our old reliable YaBB forum to phpBB. This system expects you to login with your username and old password known from YaBB.
If you experience any problems there is also the usual "password forgotten" function. Don't forget to clear your browser cache!

Re: DmEldritchValley
Huge map, needs a lot of players to enjoy.
Well done thematically, the build is weird, I don't understand why you used warpzones and teleporters between some of the main zones instead of normal hallways with appropriate zoning.
The teleporters being flames was a weird choice but it's obviously on purpose, it doesn't hurt.
The pathing is not bad. The lighting is extremely dark and saturated, I had a hard time seeing anything.
Overall, if that's the first map you finish, it's quite good; the theme is well made, the map is fully playable, it has a lot of small corners to hide and interesting things to do. I like have places to go and things to see.
You didn't use a lot of things from the sound and texture packages included, if I were you, I would have put them into MyLevel.

You must construct additional pylons.

Re: DmEldritchValley
Ah I was worried about the lighting due to a weird graphic card issues i've been having. Thank you for the feedback 
Also some of the weird zones is because I couldn't properly do them with the fog effect i wanted, and the flame teleports are more of a ghost fire sort of idea, honestly wasn't sure what I wanted mostly just had fun testing out different ideas.
