Emp_delta

Alright, I'm getting ready to make one final update on his particular version of emp_delta. After this, I'll be working on the remake of the map.

both bases have been smoothed out to allow more base building.

BE fort base thing has litterally been flattened out entirely almost. It's not possible to place a VF much farther back. Can also fit all base buildings in without putting them in the way of the driving path.

All areas of intended safe passage across the water now have bridges. The bridges now have vehicle clips to prevent vehicles from driving up on the rails.

Flag poles in infantry area are now climbable. You cannot place turrets on them, however.

All flag cap points now discribe the areas. West bunker, East bunker, Southern hills, Southern Hills NF base camp, Southern Hills BE base camp.

Location names when capping now show the res each flag will give your team. [Location] [NF res] [BE res] in that order. If you forget, there is a cap point over the starting southern spawns with that information in the location name.

Said cap zones now in the bases do nothing other than give that information.

There is now breakable glass on the top of the forts.

Ladders are now on top of the forts to allow easier access to the roofs.

Some fog adjustments, i'll get some screen shots soon.

Several other changes that I cant think of right now, but they are there.

Unless there is something horribly wrong, i think this will be my last version of delta until I can remake the map properly. Textures will never work right on the current version unfortunately.

 

For drummer:

 

=D, that looks really nice

now what happened to all the trees?

New official link fornow.

You better run mayama >_>

But seriously, brush work isn't possible without a complete remake, which will be the next version that I release, if it is ever released.

If I am missing a name of someone directly involved with the map, please let me know.

First post updated, Signature updated. Screen shots to come soon.

 

gameplay turned from sucky to nice =D,
now go and improve your brushwork!!!

...runs

 

seems there is a glitch in the map with vehicles, weird, crashes the client. on the west side

 

Recompiling, see if it takes care of this.

 

I want this map to be official. Maybe other devs want it too, we'll see.

 

what a coincidence, I just fixed the issue I was having today >_>

Actually, compile just finished, was about to do a test to make sure the crash was definitely gone.

 

Those materials look like ass unless you make new vmts because they're model materials, not brush materials

 

just the texture for it or the whole wall?

but yeah, if someone wants to do some brushwork for it, just Pm me, I have no problem getting some help from people.

 

Flasche make new normal maps for those textures like i did on emp_mesa and the empires building textures are really nice for making brushwork

 

you do need to make new vmt's if you are useing those textures though, it will render funky if you use the vmt's that are made for models on world brushes. I think thats what empty is trying to get across.

 

Textures for models have some line in the vmt that mentions it's used for props. If you just use those on brushwork in hammer like you do with normal textures and compile the map, the textures will ... flicker ... ingame. Depending on the angle at which you look at them they will turn less or more bright suddenly, and sometimes some other weird things happen.

If these do not have that problem then they might be the ones from kutm, which probably have been adjusted by chris already.
