AS-Snow Objectives Briefing:
-Locate that switch and hit it, in the room after the mountain base's doors. (I only know to make mountain bases, not normal buildings!)
-Get through the door as it opens, locate and grab these secret docs yay
-Find the teleporter room, and go to the radio room where you'll communicate the docs!
This is based on a certain Return to Castle Wolfenstein MP map...

Re: ut99.org '15 TmC poll
I'm waiting a tutorial then. Later I will ask about Linux usage deals. Have you tested a clean client here ? If works then show me The Setup.Dr.Flay wrote:Use of DLLs does not have to be a problem for online use. There is at least 1 server mod that can deliver extra files if required.
If I well recall, there is even a RMusicplayer or such which needs a manual install in client else client won't be able to join in such server. Also if memory doesn't cheat me document spoke about manually installing it because I did not figure any loader support mentioned or point me to a link with a setup tutorial.
Edit: At this moment I have some info from here with mention that it is not an EXTRA stuff - it's embedded in Level which is primary download. So... you need a harder work to convince me that a normal newbie client won't crash, beside this I have already presented a picture of a successful crash.

Wow... it didn't work on my old laptop for unknow reason, I'm trying it right now, and it works o.o Seems pretty useful.sektor2111 wrote:Actually I don't have "View Paths" but I have for sure "Show Paths"PrinceOfFunky wrote: Actually, I cannot see paths in the editor, even if I click on "View Paths".
EDIT: I'm fixing all the paths of my maps o.o
Ty for have been playing my map, rly a sin I couldn't of start to make the map, when this contest started .o. If I'll can read of another contest next year or whenever lol, I hope I can start the map when the contest startsDr.Flay wrote: "DM-NoxxCrater"Spoiler
.... *sigh* I really want to like this. It reminds me of a map I play in UT2004.
After guessing how many bots to use (did not fill out the recommended player numbers), the map loads and I get an instant "Ooooh nice,.... moody".
After a short time I start thinking "I hope it comes with an epilepsy warning, this is doing my head in".
The grapple was not as useful here as I thought it may be, but was much more useful than the underpowered jump-pads, or the upward throw of a telepod.
Due to the hoards of zombies, I could quickly see how disconnected the paths are, and the bots just standing about waiting to be eaten.
Bot orders are pointless. You may be lucky to get a couple of bots to come to you.
Finding the pickups among the rubble feels too random, though it would seem to suit a crash-site, it becomes annoying.
The BSB errors are spectacular and frequent though none seemed to be killers, but often meant I had no idea where I was walking, or going.
Performance on my PC is acceptable..... aaaaaas long as you never look into the middle of the map from the outside !
Use of DLLs does not have to be a problem for online use. There is at least 1 server mod that can deliver extra files if required.
eg. Most people do not manually install ACE, but the DLLs need to be downloaded to the clients. No minus points from me on that score.

Surry, I didn't see this post before D:OjitroC wrote:DM-TmC-NoxxCrater - loved the idea and the dark, dreary, rain-sodden landscape - the flickering polygons, BSP holes and steepness of the crater in some places make it difficult, but not impossible, to play - in one game, though, I fell out of the world three times so there is one, if not two, fatal BSP holes. I didn't find it too dark overall, though there are places where shadows and dark terrain combine to make it difficult to see. The noise of thunder can only be heard in the centre of the crater and should be more general to add to the atmosphere. The black hole is a cool idea. Overall, though, the technical build problems and lack of pathing do, unfortunately, detract considerably from the quality of the map.
But ty to have expressed your opinion. I think, the place where you fell out of world is into the water.

I mean trying so hard while concentrating to make, bigger, smaller, faster, slower, graphics, effects, rather than making a nice playable practical map that is made of, or has use of terrain.Hellkeeper wrote:I don't fully understand what you're trying to say, but if you mean "maybe the concept was not just about using a terrain in a map", then yes, it absolutely was the concept.Red_Fist wrote:I kind of think (only played swankys) but maybe the concept of the maps was more than using a terrain in a map.

Re: ut99.org '15 TmC poll
Yes, that's why Narean is clearly superior in my opinion. Not only is it wonderful, fast and clean, but the terrain with all its caves gives a nice layout with tons of vertical fighting, open lines of sight and interesting situations. It looks like a normal interior map but it just so happens to be terrains.Red_Fist wrote:I mean trying so hard while concentrating to make, bigger, smaller, faster, slower, graphics, effects, rather than making a nice playable practical map that is made of, or has use of terrain.Hellkeeper wrote:I don't fully understand what you're trying to say, but if you mean "maybe the concept was not just about using a terrain in a map", then yes, it absolutely was the concept.Red_Fist wrote:I kind of think (only played swankys) but maybe the concept of the maps was more than using a terrain in a map.
You must construct additional pylons.
Re: ut99.org '15 TmC poll
I must add, I can appreciate the ones who did make a map, especially with terrain,

Re: ut99.org '15 TmC poll
Well, has anything been officially finalized? The poll seems clear enough and I want to send this game to someone!
Regardless of the rather lackluster response top the contest overall, our participants made some memorable maps and we appreciate your efforts; it makes no difference if 1 or 100 join.
I also want to say that Swanky did not win by default, as what reading this thread might imply. DM-Narean is a good map by any measure and a big hats off, kudos and congrats to Swanky for a quality map.
Thanks for your work everyone.

You are right to say this, Swanky's map is not my favourite only because the other are all broken in some way, it stands on its own as an excellent map.Carbon wrote:I also want to say that Swanky did not win by default, as what reading this thread might imply. DM-Narean is a good map by any measure

Re: ut99.org '15 TmC poll
Been meaning to do a review of these maps, as I haven't played any of them yet... but if I ever get around to that I'm gonna have to skip on DOM-TmC-S3TC-CoexistFinal. No offense intended towards KingJosh, but his map uses a different version of TeamOrbit.u than I have, and I'm familiar with THAT version and I'm not fond of it.
It's more of an issue I've got with the Team Orbit team than anything else; I prefer the 1st version of it.
