What are your favorite crate maps?

[Lüt]

Searching extensively for... uh, "inspiration" and finding little, I'm curious to what everybody's favorite crate maps or maps with crate scenes/shipping & receiving areas are. Containment Area of course... and then what?

[Job]

Perhaps PoNR. Admittedly, though, I've seen other maps by other authors that incorporate crates and receiving areas.

[Csonicgo]

It's a deathmatch level, but greenwar's secret levels were real nice.

[Epyo]

^going to say that

Iit was an old mine map that used Airwolf for the music. Great crate section.

[Grazza]

Equinox map07. It's cratetastic!

[Vile]

Evilution map19 - Shipping/Respawning

[NiGHTMARE]

One I'm (slowly) working on for Mordeth Episode 2... ;)

I can't really think of anyone in particular so I'll just be totally nonmodest and say Nimrod Map07 :p Cause there's a sweet little script there with a crane that lets you pick up a crate and drop it. and if you pick it up just a bit and drops it you can do it over and over. But if you lift it up real high and drops it you'll break it and it'll explode. But that's just one of them. There's alot of crates you need to shoot on to destroy. I just wish in retrospect that I had made more suck events for the crates. Like crushers and whatever.

Does Fragport's MAP14 count? Or was it MAP15? It has a warehouse filled with crates in the beginning, then there's a train station, and there's also some small buildings on the side... Anyone know which one I'm talking about?

[wildweasel]

Lizardcommando: Yes, I know the one, it's MAP15.

I also liked Equinox's Map07, Containment Area, any part of Darkening 2 with crates in it, and Doom's E2M2. I think Titan Map01 had a good cratemaze too, and the ones in Galaxia were decent.

One that I did not like, however, was the one by Enjay in ZDoom Community Map 1, because the map did not help at all.

Level 4 in Eternal Doom.

it was map15

[Sharessa]

E2M2 and everything I've made. Seriously, I seem to always put crates in just about anything. Holy shit, I'm lost in Hell and demons are everywhere...WTF are those crates?

But seriosuly, I can't think of any Doom maps with extensive crate use besides UAC_Dead and that old one that had the really odd storyline and like 100 spider masterminds. Can't remember what it's called. (EDIT: Oh yeah, Galaxia) There were a ton of Quake 2 levels that I really loved that had lots of crates (one series called Old Abandonned Warehouse or something was a particular favorite), but that's not what you're looking for at all.

[EarthQuake]

E2M2

And no, I don't say that for lack of a better answer. :)

[Graf Zahl]

The best crate room ever is in the ZDoom community map.

Heh, I remember that map.

After Containment Area? Probably "Containment Area 1.1"

That same map was mentioned in the original post of the thread :P.

[sargebaldy]

Oh, so it was. I assumed he was talking about the original.

[Kristian Ronge]

Some of the maps in "Darkening 2" contain good crate sections. Check out map 12 for example.

Oh that script is so awesome, whoever wrote that is genius.

Yeah it was some guy from stockholm who called himself schepe. Dunno where he has gone now though.
