I didn't succeed at removing all those bugs. After several weeks of trying to fix whatever I could BSP became rather stable. I did not find any serious bugs in the end which could affect the gameplay (mainly ICHs are meant). However, there's a BSP bug in the sky that can be seen from a certain prespective. I feel sorry for the perfectionists but I really tried my best. About many longer periods I really thought this map had to be moved into the trash can, but the fact that I have already worked for months on this thing pushed me everytime towards the end .. well I guess I am anywise satisfied with the result. ==================================================================================== Installation ------------ Copy DM-UTR-Kamah.unr into UnrealTournament/Maps folder Copy XPickups.u, xpickups.int into UnrealTournament/System folder Copy KamahT.utx into UnrealTournament/Textures folder ==================================================================================== Extended Description -------------------- Story by Alex: According to official statistics, 72 % of all shipwrecks for the last 20 years occured in a vicinity of an island called Mehetia. Unfortunately no one knows about cause of those wreckages but there are several whitnesses who saw abnormal things. However, those people were considered mantally ill and were treated as such. Classified Document X456RT. Subject: Thomas Skinner ( 081264 ) It was 2:23AM - I was smoking with my pal on the upper deck when freighter was on the move. Everything was allright. However, several minutes later when we were almost done with out cigarettes, all the lights went out all of a sudden. I was rather puzzled - I have checked all the electricity generators before and they were functioning properly... by the time I have reached Energy Supply Room, I heard some weird noises behind me. I thought that someone of my fellow crew members was following me but when I turned around I saw no one. That scared the crap out of me... As soon as I have restarted energy generators ( someone must have turned it off ), I went on the upper deck... but I found no one. The entire crew has disappeared. At first I thought that they were playing a joke on me but as soon as I have found my captain's clothes, wallet with ID and more importanly his implanted bone, I realized that it was not a joke at all. All other crew members have disappeared. I was alone on the ship! Off the record - I saw really strange shadows on my way out of Energy Supply Room... The last thing I remember seeing is helicopter and sinking freighter. Am I going to get sued? Despite the fact that this person was transported into psychiatric nursing facility, government decided to organize a small outpost on that island in order to prevent such accidents in a future. However, few weeks after establishment contact with island outpost team was lost. This time, military took over and started search and rescue operation which has never taken place. Entire Marine squad went missing as soon as they have reached the island. Now, ages later, this outpost is used as Tournament arena whose participants prefer to stay away from the ancient temple... ==================================================================================== Author's Notes -------------- From all the maps I made for this pack this is my personal favorite. I have always wanted to make not so bad looking outdoor level so I tried myself at this big project. The fact that I like jungle themed map a lot and that ut1 does not have similar map (surprise?) pushed me towards creation of this one. The goal was to make as much jungle in ut1 as possible and, well, this is a result. Performance sucks a little bit .. as in any other map of mine. Still, it is quite playable. ==================================================================================== Copyright / Permissions ----------------------- Copyright 2008 Creavion Authors may NOT use this level as a base to build additional levels without explicit permission from the Original Author.
