THE 512kb MAPPING CONTEST

[papercoffee]

I thought to open the vote threads on 17.December ...but if everyone is alright with it, can I open the threads tomorrow. I mean today ...but later ...after I slept a little bit.

Sounds good PC. If we get the voting done in a timely manner it will be a Totally Unreal Christmas for someone!

[Higor]

And so this shall be...
The 512th reply!

[Hellkeeper]

Yes but the 513th post, so who cares? I say Carbon wins

[Chamberly]

Lmao 512th reply. Good one.

[UnrealGGecko]

I had two times a protection fault when I was playing on Noccer's server ...It was right after map-vote.
Maybe someone can explain/see what causes the trouble.

I had a GPF at the map too, what happened before?

We voted the map, 1 file around 20 mb was being downloaded, its name was "
Yeah, only "

Then a file with same name but 18 mb got downloaded. After that, i got a version mismatch: Packet723 version mismatch

Any ideas?

Been kinda lagging on the voting (XMAS & family stuff) but I'll try and get on that Sunday.

DOM-512K-DropZone_V3

About this one, as I'm too bogged down with holiday stuff to do much else; there's a hole in the map.

I had bots playing it, it's not a visible hole. As you're falling down skimming the sidewall between levels you just fall into complete blackness and die as there's nothing there.

At least the ghosting issue I mentioned in DropZone_V2 is gone!

Drop Zone V3 does not exist ... it was withdrawn - there is a nice neat and tidy V4 version waiting for after the contest is finished - it is still under 512K but has see through panels on each area (for cover), the warpzones are all now opposites on the same level, the ugly brownish hues (caused byu the blend of cyans and reds/ambers, have been replaced with a nice mix of cyan/blue, the coronas were reduced in size, and most importantly i fixed the Falling Damage Actors buggy behavior (where things suddenly go black!) so no more of that - you just land on your feet, lol! okay,
there are nice black and yellow danger stripe regions marked - don't hit those cause you'll go splattt (just like in V2)!!!!

What was this ghosting issue you're talking about?

The copy on my harddrive says different!

What was this ghosting issue you're talking about?

The ghosting · viewtopic.php?p=69070#p69070 · roundabout the middle of that.

hmm, i never heard of ghosting before now, but good it seems to be gone now

please delete v3, it's no good - the falling damage actors collision (circle) can not hang out over an edge or the thing craps out...
The solution was to use very very many with smaller radius that do not hang over any edges - presto, works (well, 98.3543542% of the time)

i'll release v4 soon just for you, lol, promise : )

Cheers

Finally I got time to make the Map Pack ...and forgot about it instantly again.

Maybe I'm getting old and need some brain medication.
Here it is... Have fun sharing it.

It would be great to see the pack on mapraider ...but till now couldn't I upload anything again ...the other map packs from 2012 and 2013 get stuck in the pipeline till now.

and here if you despise mediafire like me.

First click the folder, then

I believe you must right click the the big stupid icon to see "download".
