Oil Rig

---

What a surprise that I just release another map two weeks after my first one. Well after I got into some sea scenery help I got this urgent feeling to create my own Oil Rig map since I really like this setting a lot. And here it is. 100% vanilla as I like it.

💭 Inspiration:
Of course based of pictures online I tried to resemble the scenery and atmosphere you'll have living on the sea far away from any civilization. I'm very happy with the result. Scenery and routewise as I always wanted to create a decent sausage tech map. The final push to map this theme came from   asse.4W as I helped him with some atmo on a sea themed map.

Estimated building time:
Even though this map took me only like 2 weeks to finish the building time should be ~20h i guess.
The route was surprisingly fast estimatec ~2-3h

🎢 Track Deskription:
Set on an Oil Rig far away from any civilization you'll drive an ~47sec. long Sausage Tech map only made with 100% vanilla blocks.

🏅 Author Medal:
My initial goal was to get a clean 47. As I tried to get this time I found some interesting lines that enabled me to get my current AT. I think this one is challenging for many player yet still far away from maxed out.

📸 Screenshot:
A new Masterpiece made by   Sqweegel. I'll always envy these people and their talent to create pictures that look so fricking good. Thank you.

🚧 Signs:
I tried to keep it simple this time again. With only the help of the small vanilla sign and a quite straight forward route I managed to make the route quite clear for anyone discovering.

🎶 Music:
As always I mixed some audiolines to have some Ambient sound with a certain music. I was not sure what music fits the theme well unless I found a game called:Still Wakes the Deep, which really nailed it imo. I have to say thank you for   TechnoWayMusic that showed me how you can manipulted the display of custom music ingame. I tried your suggestion and it worked on my first try. Awesome!

The Music of the map is made of the following parts:
Background Ambients: Heavy Rain & Big Ocean Waves - Relaxing White Noise
Music: Dùisgidh e Fhathast na Doimhneachdan - Jason Graves

🏗 Technical Part

• I had one problem with the colors as this map should have quite a melancholic style, yet the colors feel very "colorful" which contradicts with the inital thought. To manage this I use a certain color gradient called "GrandNorth". Changing the saturation didn't feel like it gives the same vibes as this color gradient
  

All is said and map is done. Ready to be driven by you. I hope you enjoy the setting and route. I'm glad for every comment/critism here and appreciated for every award you leave. Thank you for driving.
