Gustavo's Maps

I thought that announcing my maps in a topic for fixing CTF, AAS and music problems was too messy and became soon problematic.
So instead I decided to make a new thread dedicated to share my maps in general public.
To start, a tiny duel map I made for us is gusq3dm6:

The map is avaiable
here. Extract to baseq3.

Now I updated the OP to have v0.4.

Making a map completely from void needs a lot of courage

There gusq3dm6 weren't even a thing. But anyway.
I did made an complete map, when little time ago (~2 days) it was just plain void.
I uploaded the first and second versions to ..::Lvl, will only upload 1.0 now.
I am open to suggestions and constructive criticism. Please help! (besides "nothing open the BFG door inside its chamber" which I'll fix)

Your map is in point of fact a really tiny box map.
What would you expect?

And it looks really basic. Is this your first map? But with "gusq3dm6" meaning 6th DM map...?
Nevertheless, I'm always in stride for map creations by people that may not have that much experience in mapping.

No, not in v0.3.
I am already almost finished v0.4, which adds a trap in the bfg room and freaking rail tower.

It also added sky! And texture fix! (I'm done with high res textures...) See it
here!
It is my fourth released map and I already made a dozen of my maps, most are random tests that must be done in the engine.

v0.2 somehow made it to the ..::Lvl map queue. I am planning to update it as v1.0 is the next version!

When it comes to updating the OP, I am a real dumbass. Just updated so it has v0.4 instead of v0.1.

A little self-reflection time on the newbie's end is very helpful though. Being humble and critical of your own work helps a lot not only in improving your work, but also in getting others along to help you. This guy here seems to think he's creating something that's hugely interesting to other people. If he's just a tad more humble in his approach and shows a willingness to listen to critique, no matter how harsh and do something with it to improve his work, then I'm sure he'll get much more valuable feedback.

What critique? I didn't saw much critique so far. My map is so ugly I could give up soon... I made a last attempt called gusq3ctf3, but the spawns are bugged for some reason... (people spawns at the wrong base)

Use the team_CTF_blueplayer and team_CTF_redplayer entities for the initial spawn locations for blue and red team respectively. team_CTF_bluespawn and team_CTF_redspawn entities are then used to set the re-spawn locations for both teams.

Yes, but that didn't work very well.

I don't understand why people call this a box map; it has some corridors and lots of acesses, and I liked a bit playing it for a 1v1. I don't feel like there's nothing left to add, change or remove 'till 1.0 [s]so I'll consider v0.4 the final version.[/s] (edit: except maybe some patches? I'll update it.)
Also is gusq3ctf3 good? I'm not a very good critique.
Its map file is in above post.
