Description
Continuing my everlasting struggle with sizing things appropriately and making them conform to some kind of grid structure, Conduit is a much larger challenge mode level than Meridian, Pyroclastic, or Houndstooth. Inspired by the stock map Pipeline, this level is strongly focused on open sight lines and maintaining a sense of speed.
There are a ton of decals in this level -- lots of repeats to cover some of the larger areas. Chunking is a mess -- approaching 20. I think everything should work fine but please let me know if you happen to fall out of the level at some point -- in which case I'll need to redo/add more chunks again. There's some slight chunk pop in the middle room when approaching from one side, and I've had some trouble with reflection probes grabbing engine glow and the like. Performance is okay given how many polys can be on screen, but it's not stellar given the map size.
This comes in three variants -- the normal release, -S removes the side hallways and the top of the map, and -A adds accelerator tunnels in several locations to shrink things down a bit.
As always, happy to take feedback.

- Jonas V 1.1N/A
Jonas was my first level ever. Jonas 1.1 is the nearly the same architecture, but a lot of details and possible actions have changed along the way. I didn't bother too much with the not-so deformed rocks, the sharp edges or the weird lig...
- MalevolenceN/A
Malevolence Similar to Houndstooth, I'd intended for this to be a lot more horizontal, but it's...really vertical. I'd also wanted a lot more cave structure to take after the stock CM Labyrinth, but going with the flow makes stuff like ...

2nd draft of a 4-level WIP. Currently contains 2 levels: Callisto Port & Callisto Transfer, each with a secret level. Zip also contains the CM levels so they can be played separately as well.
- HoundstoothN/A
Work started on this almost immediately after finishing Pyroclastic -- had a really cool idea for a visual effect that I wanted to try out, and hence the bottom room was born. Not quite sold on the whole thing as a level, and it all feel...

One of the first PTMC deep-space installations on a planetoid with highly unusual characteristics.

Non-suffixed version better-optimized for gameplay purposes, -G is closer to the original vision. Hoping I've learned a thing or two since publishing Heirloom a few months ago. Happy to take constructive criticism and may make some smal...

An early attempt at creating some Descent 2 Vertigo levels from 2023, inspired by Yinut's Descent First Strike Overloaded campaign. I started off with Level 19 so that is included at the end, and levels 1, 2, 3, 4 and S1 are made (S1 is ...
