Heres another map I've made starting off with the heightmap technique described in the tutorial in the sticky. Standard commander map, standard rules and res. Big thanks to Epic Zeke for testing the map on his system and giving me loads of various advice and bug finding, also providing me with a decent resolution pic to make aminimap and building my cubemaps and taking the pics you can see below. Also for pickign the name cos I couldnt think of anything better than "rocky" without thesaurus.com Note that in the pics below, all the rocky hills have been clipped at the top so you cannot climb or get vehicles on top or over them. Weapons won't be blocked however so you can still fire arty over some of them. Any and all feedback is welcome, heres the pics: Overview Pics: Download Here (5MB)
just played this map, was pretty friggin tight. as NF i couldnt drop the A5 ref though BTW, showed green just wouldnt go down. and you can build on the ramp past the barricades and if you keep going down the road and jump over the edge you will fall through the world
OK Ive finished Beta 2 but I need some help now. My weak ass computer crashes whenever I try to build cubemaps, so I need someone to download the file, and buildcubemaps by doing the following: Load the map up. Type sv_cheats 1 Type buildcubemaps Once the cubemaps have been taken, type map emp_territory_b2 to reload the map and save the cubemaps into the file. Once you exit the game, you will have the new emp_territory_b2.bsp file in your maps folder. It will be a slightly bigger file than the one in the following download. You can then repack the bsp into the zip file yourself, keeping the same file structure, and rename the zip (take UNBUILT off the end of the filename), or just upload the bsp and I will pack it into the zip myself if you find this easier. If whoever downloads this file knows how to make minimaps and runs in better than 800x600 resolution you might feel nice and make me a new minimap of better quality, although this isn't a priority, the one included works perfectly well, it would be nice to have one that includes the tree props and be of a better resolution. I would also appreciate a couple of screenshots of the map running in high settings (taken after the cubemaps have been built) for me to provide with the download link, as any shots I take just look crappy. So yeah I gues Im asking a lot I need to go to bed after working on this for hours, if no one responds by tomorrow I'll rope an Epic into doing it for me Anyway here's the download link: http://www.mediafire.com/?81tz8vim8tz If you download and install this because you just want a look around, bea in mind you will need to delete the files from your map folder and install the new version once I get cubemaps built if you want to play it on a server, otherwise you will get a "map differs" error.
Those are your screenshots. http://rapidshare.com/files/138486454/emp_territory_b2.zip Thats your finished map, already up on Napalm's Funhouse.
