Completed Maps / Re: New Map: (unknown name)

« on: May 14, 2008, 08:56:39 AM »

Firstly, this is a great map; technically very well thought out, aesthetically good, and practically good for the most part.

http://rapidshare.com/files/114856198/mazingmap.rar.html (sorry for the rapid link, i was in a rush).

I've attached a few screenshots with issues that need to be resolved (Some of them are very picky, but perfection is everything!).

60: Through the wall (TTW)
61: Misaligned texture
62: Misaligned texture
63: Clip this so people can't get stuck under it. Also the DP is backwards on the box!
64: TTW
65: TTW and strange clipping on the left hand side
66: Misaligned texture
67: Clip it so people don't get stuck when jumping past
68: Nothing wrong here, i would just like to see a lip that you can double off to the mid high.
69: TTW
70: TTW?
71: Don't like this, just seems awkward. I'd prefer i circle away from the wall
72: Looks strange, but not technically wrong
73: Not obvious that this is ice - we'll get to this later!
74: TTW
75: Misaligned texture, and its not quite flush with the wall
76: Misaligned texture and TTW
77: TTW

Phew! Some of the TTW ones you may have already done some clipping on, so ignore them if you have.

Right, my main issue is with the 'ice cave'. It makes it so quick to get from one base to the other that it makes many of the other paths redundant. While the jump is good fun, personally, I'd like to see the ice go to make for a more balanced map. I know people will disagree, so perhaps you could put one of the other caves as ice instead, one which it takes longer to get to mid, and without the giant jump!

Nevertheless i think this will become a favourite match map with many clans (although i think it'll see limited pub play).

Good job and keep it up,

Reed.

Paintball 2 Discussion / Re: Committee Fix

The problem seems to be about abuse, simple answer is don't tolerate it. 8 day bans for anyone who abuses any committee member.

Personally i don't think that many people are going to be bothered about what is said behind closed doors, so open it up and see how it goes. You can always close it again if things get out of hand. At the end of the day we entrusted the committee with this responsibility, now i think we deserve that trust back.

Paintball 2 Discussion / Re: Are you satisfied with the committee? (Committee Members please dont vote)

« on: January 03, 2008, 11:01:58 PM »

The main problem seems to be public relations; there's very little transparency in the decision making process. Most people would appreciate that it is a difficult time of year to have their first real challenge, but there has been a lack of information about what the committee is doing. Who is it looking to ban, what will be the length of the bans, what information is it seeking, who on the committee is in support of what view.

Because everything is done behind closed doors people believe the committee is not taking any action. I appreciate that private information cannot be discussed in public, but a little information could help to diffuse the situation, and it also lets us, the electorate, judge how well individuals are representing our views.

I think the best active paintballers from NA are probably Olbaid and perhaps BoB

Hate to say it, but i think BoB is the best player now.

BoB is our best starter that 20ID has today.

i'd say ive noticed the best to be dystro or BoB if u wanna say BoB even still plays.

I would say it's between Blitz, Digi and BoB.

BoB?! I nearly choked on my fondue!

Official Feature Votes / func_ reset

« on: January 03, 2008, 06:37:50 PM »

Something I meant to ask a long time ago, is there a command to reset funcs at the beginning of each round?

If there isn't i propose putting it the next build, and I promise you I shall make the greatest map in DP history, no jokes.

Rust is definitely the place, if you can't find it on there then ask about your ideas on the forum, and someone will tell you if it is possible.

Mapping / Re: trigger_hurt

There are many jump maps with this feature, it doesn't really fit well into any other game type.

My suggestion would be to have the rising death (as me and Dag have affectionately nicknamed it) on a KOTH map. Have a room where your KOTH flag is and a button some distance away which fills said room up with paint. Set the wait time on the button to a couple of minutes so it could only be done 4-5 times per play. It would certainly be interesting, and a tactical decision as to when you push the button to gain maximum advantage over the other team.

Pretty sure Xile is terrible.

I don't think Xile is the best.

I disagree.

<insert player name> was better than Xile.

You are out of your skull you crazy British wanker!

Xile? Noooooooo.

Xile?! I nearly choked on my fondue!

Just some alternatives for you to use next time, just to save anyone getting offended who can't comprehend your witty and insightful comments.

Hooray, DarkP finally won something for once!!!

We once won a match back in 2005 against RWE, 9-6 on spawninabox, our biggest victory to date.

We also tested the nerf guns claim of shooting up to 30 feet. We figured that they must have tested it in galeforce winds or from the top of a tall building because we could only get it to fly about 15, still awesome though

Y2J wanted to say that me and him were the best 56k players.

That will always be Xile, he was on 56k for eternity.

Yes, you and your brother can have separate profiles as long as you make it known to Jitspoe. You may only have ONE profile each though, otherwise it is a bannable offence.
