I thought you might want to see a picture of what I work with. Pretty nutso, once a map gets complicated. blink.gif

Click here for the image.

I will post some screenshots soon, but I REALLY NEED A NAME FOR THIS MAP. I just changed the title to "Amalgamation," but somehow that does not come trippingly off the tongue, so to speak.

Keep an eye out for a revised version soon. I will post when it is on the server, and you will have to update. Also, any further suggestions you have for it would be appreciated.

Make it so when I pick up the Bacta Tank, I don't a random bag full of goodies biggrin.gif

Other than that, I'd say it's pretty nice the way it is. I can get through those halls faster than your little "lifts" go, so I would leave those as is. There's more than enough room for just about every game type, so I can't see any reason why it can't support everything (not sure if it already does). A shame you can't get those explosions to fire more than once, though. Any way you can script it so they "respawn" ?

PS: I should send you a screenie of ctf_nipseb, now there's a crazy map, everything is all over the place happy.gif

Thanks...

As for the new map, I am shooting to have a version available for beta-testing tomorrow night (Thurs.) on the server. I will post to the shoutbox when it is live.

Most of the "improvements" are "under the hood" at this point, as well as subtle little adjustments that I have learned are needed through the gameplay (little places to hide, one hall that always SHOULD have been there, but somehow never was, etc.) The outside area has a couple little changes, as well as trying to boost FPS wherever possible-- though given the size of many of the spaces, it is dang hard. Oh, and there are a couple little "gee-whiz" things I have added. wink.gif

I MUST be getting near the entity limit on the map though, so I will have to be careful.

Anyway, I will post when it is ready for a test. Anyone else who wants to chime in-- Do so now!

--Ruggiero

P.s. Post those screenshots, Ky!

Immediate impressions were along the lines of ice, castles (but definitely not Ice Castles - yuck), lava (lamps) and "bejeweled"... if that helps. :\ ('Fraid I haven't had the opportunity to take it further.)

euh... "Revenge of Jimi Hendrix"? (No. Scratch that. Thinkin'....)

Here you go. And it's not that bad, if you're making selsections in that view though, it must take you like a bazillion years to get to what you want rolleyes.gif

It's easier for my to make selections via the 3-D window, but thats just me wink.gif
