DOM FNB Once Upon A Time

DOM FNB Once Upon A Time

UT DOM - 4CP - Medium, 6-12 players. Silly medieval castle fortress. Released May 2009.

This is a 4-CP DOMINATION conversion of DM-FNB-OnceUponATime. I had a feeling long ago that this map would be ideal for DOM matches, and IMO, the map works much better as a DOM! Much faster-paced action and great for XLOC. With teams of four, the test matches were hectic and close in score, using masterful bots.

Note that the original DOM version of Once Upon A Time was a considerably modified and larger version of the original DM, and had suffered from low framerates.

I worked with that version for a while and used it as the basis for a larger CTF map that was to have a Monty Python and the Holy Grail theme (see CTF-FNB-HolyGrail ).

Unfortunately, neither the DOM or CTF made it very far into development due mainly to the framerate and BSP issues, and so those were both canned. The original DM BETA map was nowhere near as problematic and was eventually finished.

Thanks to the folks at Unreal Playground who tested the original DM map and provided feedback back in April 2003, and thanks to TechnoJF for the Monster no score script.

Music track is Lock from Unreal Tournament.
