emp_kutm playtesting

Wait like another half hour or less for revision 1.

It's got the fixes.

 

Impressive :D.

We looked forward for this moment for a long time and now it is here! :D

But please don't call your map emp_kutm T_T because kut means cunt in Dutch...

 

Marvellous!

Uploading the new version, be done in a 15 minutes.

Make the no-comm-build-brush abit inside the brush it should be blocking.
I experienced the same it worked for me if after I lowered the brush.

 

It's inside the whole city area. No building of anything by the comm, engy stuff is still allowed.

 

How come R1 is 18 MB smaller than the previous download?

 

Chris place the entity for initial (spectator) position. Make also sure that it is inside the map. That will stop the console spam.

 

HUGH FPS DROP here, its (for me) no problem but I guess people with
slower pc`s will have real problems if they look in that direction.


From a gamedesign point of view there should be an indicator that you die
if you jump down here. (Maybee color correction to indecate radiaton or whatever you like)


Combine computers in a empires map D: D: D:

Oh and theres one big gate that is almost invisible from one side
but I dunno where it was

 

The huge lag when you look at the city seems to be cured by going into it, oddly. After that, the map runs smooth.

 

textures, chris the textures ... played it on main public server - everthing was pink (every1 on the server had this prob).

 

It was a res file error. Trickster is fixing it now.

EDIT: Oddly, the wind and stars don't show up in multiplayer games... (they show when you run the map in single player, but not otherwise)

 

you had no braces {
no "file" in your .res file
I fixed this but there was still stuff missing. Looks like the .res file needs a LOT of work.

 

also console spams error messages like mad.

 

That's weird, I haven't had any problems with console errors or missing textures. -.-"

 

Have you been getting the map from here, or a server? .res file does shit all if you grab an archived copy. The .res, IIRC, is purely to tell the server what files are needed, where they are relevant to the games root, and to send them off to downloading players.

 

I got the map from here, I have got no error or missing textures. Have you allready playtested it?

 

Did you play it in multi?

 

I haven't played it, but I know how res files work. It works fine for you because you got it here. The people missing textures were victims of the bad res file not instructing the server to send the materials and textures.

 

frankly i think those 'combine' pc's dont make a lick of difference to anyone.

if they can be easily recompiled with a new 'screen' then i'd say go for it, but otherwise who gives a rat's ass. It's a cool looking component.

 

I can't imagine what's missing from the res file apart from possibly the formatting, as I said I haven't written one before but that should be a list of all the textures included in the download. If you tell me exactly what's wrong with it I'll fix it.

You shouldn't get an FPS drop from the city because it's in its own area.

The water will lag you if you have a shitty PC yes, so turn off relfect everything.

It should be obvious not to jump down the lift because you obviously can't get back out.

I don't give a shit if you don't like the combine monitors, model you own if you don't want me to use them.
