RC2's playtest will be on Wedensday, 4 PM PST. Maps to play: Canyon We need to fix this map! Territory Dune Temple Current Changelog Sofar Fixed - Pistol 2. I don't need to say more XD Changed - Artillery Tank is moved down a level, no longer needing Advanced Chassis Modified - APCs now give ammo at all times, not just when the Spawn Point is researched
You should be able to reproduce it until you update your own SVN. For anyone who wants to try it out and wasn't at the playtest: 1. Make your own server. 2. Join BE and select a class that has the pistol 2. 3. After you spawn, press 1 to switch to pistol 4. DURING THE DRAWING ANIMATION hold down the left mouse button. 5. Voila. 6. To repeat go into rax/armory and hit Accept again.
You can probably recreate that if you right-click on the Empires folder, go into the SVN menu and select "Update to Revision". Pick a revision that was updated yesterday or on saturday (not sure when it was implemented). But I haven't tried that, so no guarantee.
I have a class at 1, and a class at 2...so I wont be back until 3...I set it at 4 that way I have an hour to do shit before the test, even though I know for a fact SVN wont be updated until 5 min after the test starts
Ok, we are going to playtest some custom maps on Wednesday. This does not necessarily mean they will be included in 2.2. I want to see how they play in 2.2, and there is the possibility that they will be included. These maps are emp_dune emp_temple emp_territory they will be on svn, so you wont have to download them from the forums
Just update to the previous revision and you can get it back. Do you have a copy of my calendar or something? You guys keep scheduling tests when I am going to be at work...
WHOAH. Stop. Mayama is a very talented mapper, but temple IS NOT his "finer" work. I recommend adding nfescort2 to that map (and help me in nagging him to rename it to emp_assault). Also, plunge gives great gameplay, as does shadows. I don't see how temple made it there, but I do see it with territory and dune, so good choice with those. Also, is there no way we could just have an EXTENDED playtest so that it starts 3 hours earlier for testing and you could arrive later? The other devs are capable of updating SVN aren't they?
