So, what is to do?
0. Secret room
This is optional. I'd be interested if you find the secret room without looking in the editor. Now it is really hard to access the room (you need another person to open the entrance).
1. Sounds
Not every room has sounds yet. So it would cool if someone could take the job. He adds AmbientSounds at the right places. Also, he controls the sounds of the movers. He adds a sound if necessary. When he is finished he uploads the map, but just with the new actors.
2. Bot paths
Not every room is pathed correctly. And some movers may be not yet bot-friendly. So someone adds apples and maybe SniperSpots and checks if the bots use most of the possible ways and movers.
3. Ideas for improvements
If you notice any bug or have an idea of improvement, please report them. Please bring in yourself as often as possible so we can finish this huge project fast!
4. Gameplay
When 1. and 2. are finished we can make the gameplay ready. We decided to make a both a DOM and a DM map. However, because of the floorplan DOM is more important.
- Domination: We decide together 5 Domination spots. I have started a poll with ten different spots. If you have ideas that are not listed yet, tell them. After that someone adds these to the map and adjustes the items and weapons.
- Deathmatch: Someone works out the best possible item placement for a DM match. He deletes some weapons, Health Vials and Playerstarts, adds ammunition at other places, etc...
When those, who make the gameplay changes, decide that the gameplay is finished we could test the map on JackGriffin's server - as he suggested some time ago.
5. Music
The music zones won't work. That's why we just decide one music track that we all go along with.
Right now Phantom is the background music of the map. I think it fits quite well.
If you don't think so, please suggest other tracks in the mod-format.
6. Name
Please suggest a good title. Creavion already thought of one: DM/DOM-UT99org. If you agree with this title, we could take it immediately.
7. Story
Two people already wrote something about the story. Maybe someone acts the ideas out..? Maybe papercoffee?
papercoffee wrote: Years ago Liandri corp. build this underground mine Factory and discovered someday an underground temple near the construction work. Without any regard they destroyed parts of this temple to follow up to build the factory... but some day, the factory was nearly finished, something happened ...The flambeaus of the dead temple were inflamed again... and one after one of the worker died.
Liandri decided to seal the unfinished factory and the curse inside ...The facility was half working but unused and abandon.
Of course, those who haven't contributed something yet may still participate.Myth wrote: For map story something that makes the most sense is that some corporation built X factory and in year Y there was a huge earthquake. The factory partly collapsed and got somehow mixed up whit Z ruins. In the end Liandri dug it up and renovated it to become another arena for their tournament.
Here are the latest versions of the map.
