Not done but finished enough to show off at this point, this map contains as much style and editing flex as I could cram in.
It's playable, although that's subjective.

Probably because all the lights are from the original map lmfao

This was a very beautifully done remake, and gave it a totally different and richer atmosphere.

There are a couple spots that are very pretty, but quite bright if you're thinking about a competitive game on it - which, to be fair, isn't necessarily the highest consideration considering that metl3 is a very mediocre map compared to what we have to play ffa on now, but still could be considered. These are some of the spots I thought were a bit bright and could be toned down.


In case it's not clear, it's really just the teleport here that felt too bright.

The far wall here


and the floor under it here


Other than that, amazing job, I'd much rather play on this version than the default one.

You need to change the permissions on the link, it's not publicly viewable. From the screenshots, the reskin looks very refreshing though.

Full stylistic rework of Metl3 by Metslime with a couple flow improvements here and there.

Hey Alxa, welcome

Two essential commands for controlling a demo are /gamespeed and /seekdemo, the first one lets you speed up and slow down time, the second one lets you skip to a specific time ahead.

gamespeed is very intuitive, but seekdemo can be confusing at first, for example /seekdemo 9:00 will jump to 1:00, and /seekdemo -9:00 (or /seekdemo 1:00) will jump to 9:00, both positive and negative numbers will skip forward, the only way to "rewind" is to reload the demo before the seekdemo (eg /demo demoname; seekdemo 5:00), but you don't have to worry about any of that if you use the Pseudo Demo Editor addon (https://github.com/SalatielSauer/Sauer-Demo-Editor/) :P

I'm not sure about the avatar requirements, but you can try asking on Sauerworld discord channel #support: https://discord.gg/j3kyxtj

Hey dude.

1.   Which are the most played duel maps?

Depends on the game mode but Turbine is pretty popular. Frozen, Ot, Academy, also come to mind. This game has a massive map pool and people tend to gravitate towards different maps, more so than in the old days where we only played like 5-6 different maps.

There tend to be maps that people play /less/ instead of maps that are super popular, if that makes sense — but there are a handful that are definitely played a lot. Try all of them!


2.   Is there a player ranking or competitive ladder?

No official ELO system exists in Sauerbraten but there are community-created ones that pull data from different servers. 


3.   Are there texture packs? What about better (or more) player models?

Yes, and no. The game is open source so you can really do whatever you want, but any custom content is client-side only. Messing with textures/models could possibly fuck up your game and in some cases prevent you from playing.

4.   Any other useful tip you can give to a newbie? :s

Get good noob.
