I just started with this new map and the ideas behind it... it is very possible that the Sapphire Series is the follow up series to my TNT which last episode and compilation is still and progress and known as "The Ultimate TNT". Stay tuned!

Aren't sapphires blue? I see a lot of green.

Maybe you should call the wad "emrald"?

The name (as stated several times now ;)) refers to the planet (skybox) and the company owner of this space station, not to the green in it ;) Otherwise I would have called it Smaragd or Emerald ;)

Hm... damn me, I always thought "emerald" is blue and "sapphire" is cyan :)

Emerald

Smaragd

...nevertheless, the name stays, as I stated several times: It is the name of the Company, not the planet or either the space station ;)

Emerald = Chaos Emerald! *runs away*

But seriously, that's a good shot.

Isn't this discussion about the color of sapphires rather pointless? Who cares if the map is good?

New Sapphire Shots

I am about 70% done and I think I will release this map within one week. While working on Sapphire I tried a new mapping technique for me, that speeds up the developement of beautiful looking maps without losing quality (this is what I hope I will achieve). Let's see, if you like it when it is released ;)
