Last month, Welyn decided to show gratitude to his large Subs on Youtube, and had a trip at the Mt Shavano for a great climbing adventure with his mom and Rhys…

I was impressed by the decor… similar in many parts to what we have in Rust, but compared to Rust, there was way higher mountains and yeap, lots of summits…

So I challenged myself to create a similar decor in Rust, with some differences… The city of Salida is represented, but it’s a ghost village where players can install themselves without the need to build compounds…

The map is similar to the region of Salida, but it would’ve been hard to replicate, so I used Rust content to make it good… In Welyn’s video, we have a view from the treeline… It is « similar » in the map… 🙂

For all the other details, you have to watch the entire video and play the map… But… I added some details that does not exists at Mt Shavano and neither inside Rust in vanilla.

While observing Welyn for the last 2 years, one thing I found is that he is not a « PVP fights in Monuments » type of guy.. Most of his movies and plays are in the wild, against general public players, and focussing on destroying bases of toxic or trolls. Having a map built for this kind of scenario is way more complicated than just using the Procedural Generator…

Having a custom map just for the fun of it is kinda boring. This scenario is fun when you roleplay, because it is about Tourism, Mountain Treking, and Wildlife Preservation in a game where you focus on surviving… So it’s acting like Welyn to fight the wrongdoing guys… 🙂

 

1- Official Rust content is minimal… No large monument, and just some small custom monuments. This is to attain a certain level of touristic feel to the map.

2- This region is a National Wildlife Area, so each  summit has a Firetower to watch over the sector… filled with tier2, you need a green card to enter.

3- Since Welyn is running out of water at the halfway point, we have on the map a multitude of water wells at the height of the treeline.

4- Resources are more than important when playing on a Creative play server… When you do the climbing for the right goals, you are rewarded with nodes everywhere… and plenty of locations to install your base.

5- The fishing village is complete, and there are some sneaky scientists observing the scene from the sky… You can use a mini-copter to attack them!

6- The map is about Mountains, in Colorado… and so there are some toilet stations… you can even use them to protect yourself from weather or to fight the Heli.

Anyway, this is it… on october 8th, the server was wiped out for the month, and now offer a different map… sorry!
