I ran this map for about 5 hours today and the feedback was outstanding. At this point I am just trying to get this map noticed, not looking for input...That is not to say your feedback isn't welcomed, just that I am content with exactly how this map plays.

A ShootMania adaptation of the Halo 3 map "The Pit"
This is as close to the Halo 3 map as you can get using the ShootMania editor. "The Pit" was originally a great Team Deathmatch map, and Capture the Flag map.
I had the idea to do this recreation when I started working on my Capture the Flag mod for ShootMania. This map works for a wide array of game modes....
I hope all the Halo 3 players out there appreciate this map. I wish I was able to make an exact replica, but the ShootMania editor restricted the ability to do so...However this should be similar enough to the original that all you Halo 3 players will recognize the layout of: Invisibility down the middle of the map, rockets and training on each side of Invisibility, Overshield underground to the right/left of sniper tower, and of course I placed rail platforms on sniper tower to simulate the effect of going snipe tower to control training.
The 4 capture points are as follows:
Invisibility: Each team has a capture point in the middle of the map where invisibility spawns in Halo 3
Sword Room: Each team has a capture point located to the Right/Left of the map where the Energy sword spawns in Halo 3.
In front of Sniper: Each team has a capture point located in front of where Sniper spawns in Halo 3
In front of flag spawn: Each team has a capture point located in front of Starting spawn, in front of where the flag point is in Halo 3.
I hope you guys enjoy playing this map, I know I enjoyed making it!

I am open to suggestions if you have an idea for a map you would like to see me make. I cannot guarantee that I will do anything, but am open to everything.
If you like this map host it on your server, if you have friends with servers let them know about it!
I will likely turn this map into a melee map aswell, I'll post the link here if/when I do
