Well... in sauerbraten, a couple of maps I know are remakes are "roughinery" and "killfactory"

As far as in cube, I believe there's a remake of "foundation" from Halo 2, and there's a remake of q3dm2 (I don't know what that is, just that it's a remake) floating around somewhere.

In sauerbraten, it is a very feasable think to remake a map from one game to sauerbraten.

it's actually very interesting to see a well-done remake in cube, because of cube's multilevel limits. a well done remake is often very different and often a better show of creativity than an original map. a lot of my maps started as remakes of classic maps and then turned into something new.

Just for the record, killfactory is not from another game....is there a game with a map that looks like this? I suppose there could be, but none that I've played. I'm not a big fan of building remakes. I prefer to make new maps from scratch :)

I will add that I don't have a problem with people doing remakes...for example, roughinery IMHO is a sweet map for sauerbraten. I guess if thats a good way for some mappers to get a "new" map started, then go for it.

isn't it based off a UT map by a different name? it's one of the maps that you play in the 2004 SP "pre-tournament" rounds... i can't think of what the name is ATM.

#6: my remakes

For Cube I did bOo and Map07 from Doom2, ultrav from Quake, and Serpentine and TrainingDay from UT2k4. For Sauerbraten I did Roughinery from UT2k4 and have WIP versions of Face-Classic (Facing Worlds from UT) and Serpentine from UT2k4.

There was also an extremely good remake of Q2DM1.
