Control Room nr 3 in the series

Post by The Flying Dutchmen »

So i thought about making my own control room.. as i didnt like both conversion from paintball and flesh, as they seemed to lack in gameplay and playability... this mod is nearing completion , and it got some nice features thanks to entity.. :D :D :D

restored original sound enviroments (SNDE)
imported looping sounds for ambience (LSND)
imported FRG with working sounds
working door with sound
working deathzone
balanced teamspawning, which was quite hard
spawned obstacles
2 2 way teleporters
covenant weaponstyle only
rebuilded and added some scenery, spawns all taken from sp map (lights, control_room_cover, control walkway .. too bad original platform wasnt going to work since it has got no collision)
colorchangable shieldshaders for arbiter and MC (they happen to be in each MP map, but hardly anyone found out)

i had some troubles with the shaders on the elite, but its been sorted out.. i replaced the elite with an arbiter...

you must be thinking what the .... is gondola platform doing there, but it was the only good platform i could think of that would give you some space to fight on and some cover..
i nulled the lightmap to get rid of the BIPD getting green on MACH problem, but the map doesnt get much prettier because of it

map has grown in size. it has become 79.9MB which means it almost exceeded its maximum filesize.. the working sounds seem to be byte eaters

Very nice, too bad the crazy green machs, the no lightmap makes it very very grey.

I love this map - it's the best conversion available, but somehting has to be done about the one green mach. Only one fo them is green, and it really takes away from the feel of the level.

yes i forgot to null the lightmap on the patch i gave you a link to ^^

i'm just done with everything.. i kept on going till i was satisfied, till the flaws where gone.., i restored as much as i could from the original BSP (scenery, sound, etc )...
the only thing i'm not to happy with is the "hollow" sound enviroment (SNDE _ hangar) in the Control Room.. but thats a minor fix..
team spawns and team antispawns are working like a charm, after major testing.

if anyone would like to play: i've just made this map system link so send me a PM , as i didn't plan on public release on HM due to flaming ^^
no matter what people will argue as i release this in public in h2 downloads

Yes, sound injection is definetely a byte eater. What determines the maximum size of a Multiplayer map?

i think the maximum map size is somewhere in the mainmenu, because if bigger then 80MB the map doesnt even start loading, it instantly sais fail to load.. i only used entity for building

how is the maximum map size 80.mbs because single_player_shared is over 100mbs and you can play it on multiplayer

Thats because paintballer tends to rush mods, because he thinks someone is always stealing his mod(s). (Has happened multiple times.)


Anyways..Hurry, that map looks like it kicks ass.

I think people should try no to show off their double sigs because that just makes them look like jack***es. :D
as for the map, p8ntballer could have made one this good or better but like the quote says he rushes and ends up messing up some maps.
