[UPDATE] 13th April 05
=====================================
This is *just* the BSP and associated assets.
http://www.infosprite.com/members/kat/b ... at1024.zip @c.2.7MB

beta 3.1 with the fixes to the problems below and the addition of Yellow armour. I can't say that it improves *bot* that I can see but it'll be something for huu-mans to fight over.!

Remove the old beta3*pk3 and drop the new one in it's place. No change in the multiplant pack and only minor changes to the assets pack so I'll upload those again on final.


Thanks for the feedback.

=====================================


ok.. hopefully *this* is the last beta.. !

I had some problems uploading the file so if you get any probs with it let me know.

Zip file includes
- multiplant
- updated *.map + editor assets
- beta3 BSP

http://www.infosprite.com/members/kat/k ... master.zip c.7.2MB

fix list

Post subject:  looking good sir..

Hello Mr. Kat,

I've always loved your cave/rock maps, so thought it worth a dl, even on dialup! ;)

I can't remember how to take ss in .jpg, and no longer have a method of working w/tga's after my last hd crash, but I only saw one thing that looked iffy.

I know the jp's were supposed to look broken, but on the very bottom, the jp looked as if it had overdraw on it. Don't know if that's the way you intended it to look or not, but I thought I'd mention it.

Another great map sir, thanks very much for sharing.

thanks,

Hmmm I've not spotted anything obvious but I'll have another look to see if I can find it. (F11 should take screenies btw)

The final release will be in two packs... one big one with everything in it and smaller dialup friendly packs where the zips in the master file will be available separeately - don't worry I have nay forgotten the dialup bretheran ;)

F-11 by default shoots .tga's, which I can't work w/until I get my software back on this box.

Like I said, it may be an intentional look you're going for. It just looked like overdraw.

good times,

I forgot how to take mute shots, so noprint 1 will have to do. :P

So about his map...
lol, yeah. Bots should work as well as they can in this type of map now. The previous version had a couple of buried spawn points up top which ment they weren't using them. Klesk still 'owns'. That was the only 'major' thing that needed fixing so aside from the UVWmap tweeks that's about it.

I can't run a server.. I've been trying for months now and although it sets up without a hitch it can't be seen or accessed from the outside world even though the ports and permissions have been set in my firewall app correctly.

You could join mine! Btw, gameplay wise, I think it needs some armor on the bottom, like a yellow one or such.

It originally had Red armour up top to encourgae movement around the map. As it stands putting too many 'powerups' may not be a good idea - considering megahealth is up top - you wouldn't really want to give access to both of those at the same time in such a small map.

Maybe a red and a yellow, no MH?

Author:  voodoochopstiks [ 04-11-2005 02:58 PM ]
Post subject: 

Yeah, but right now, the only good item is up top, and nothing else is avail. , no need to move from there.

eh? Oh heh.. nah that's not z-fighting, that bit of jump pad is broken and what you're seeing is the 'stone' underneath where the jumppad has been chipped away.

The moss is a nice touch. Softens up the map a little. I now realize that the plants were a bit out of place, growing on hard rock. Now with the moss, it looks much more natural.

UVW mapping greatly improved too.

Bots seem to get stuck here a lot. They're trying to get through the doorway but keep hitting something.

Dammut! He got me! I still won 20 to 5 (3 of those he shot me while I was trying to take screenshots). Just a funny pic I wanted to share.

Bots are serious chat fraggers.!

Bot getting stuck may be a small cluster portal they're trying to get to rather than clip although I've wiggled that area a little bit. That 'seam' isn't a smoothgrouping error persay but something caused by the model being split there. I've re-edited that mesh a little bit so there isn't a seam there (it's been moved further round).

I'll have to make this next one the final beta as I'm loosing time on some other projects.
