Completed Maps / Re: New map: Concrete (contest entry)

« on: August 31, 2018, 09:01:41 PM »

Okay, so I've made some last minute changes and I think this is the final version, as I don't really have time to work on this map in near future. It might feel a bit rushed but I hope you can still enjoy it.

Changelog:
- swapped flag elevators for stairs
- slightly buffed the jump pads
- leveled as many water planes as I could
- added hint brushes (don't have high hopes, they didn't help much)
- opened side entrances to the white flag room
- opened upper mid area, accessible through teammate boost
- fixed texture alignments
- orange boxes are now yellow
- more boxes overall

That's all I think. Again i hope you enjoy this map and I kinda still hope it can do well in the mapping contest

Okay, I'm going to adress the issues you guys pointed out and tell you my plan for the next update.

T3RR0R15T:
I could upload the textures if *.wal is fine. But these are for triggers and stuff, so I might as well replace them with a pball texture. I also found some misalignments, but I'm not sure if I've got all of them. For the orange boxes... I was kinda hoping i can gett away with that, because I'm too lazy to make a yellow version and orange was already there. I'll think about boosting the jump pads a little bit.
Also thanks for uploading, I would love to playtest it!
BASEBALLDUDE:
You know you can turn off water reflections in the settings, right? I don't even know if I can make water non-reflective. The map can either stay pretty or have low r_speeds. Now the reason I decided to clip the water is so people don't get stuck on it. After all you don't want your strafe ruined by running into a pond edge. Especially while holding a flag . Maybe I'll go for ace's suggestion to level clip brushes with the water surface as the tiny edge it will create won't clip anyone.
Ace:
I'm not sure how can you abuse the ramps, I'm pretty sure I'm aware of eveything that you can do with them. Let me know if you want to show these jumps to me.
JeongWa:
We talked this in discord DMs, and he suggested adding an easier route from the lowest map part to the flag. I'm considering adding stairs where the func_plats currently are (the ones next to flags). Let me know what you guys think, it's kind of important. He also suggested unblocking the roof above the white flag room, which is currently clipped. I think I'm going to go for it - will be possible to get there with a teammate's boost (as Jeong suggested as well). Last but not least he mentioned some corridors to be a dead zone when getting shot at from anywhere, so I'll probably be adding some obstacles in the way for player to hide and run away.

Thanks for your feedback guys, I also really appreciate your positive comments :>

Completed Maps / New map: Concrete (contest entry)

« on: August 23, 2018, 03:47:28 AM »

Hey, it's been a while :>

I made concrete for the anniversary mapping competition. It's a grey themed, medium or big sized map (I'm not sure which one yet). It supports single flag, two flags and deathmatch modes. Players start with lower tier weapons, but they have plenty of pickups to choose from when running around. I also included a few jump pads which I don't think is common here   .

Since I don't know too much about mapping for Paintball I would love to hear what you think about the maps layout.

Let me know what you think, I want to know everything! :>

Yeah, I bought it and it's like this:
You can activate all games on origin and some of them on steam (Dead Space, Burnout Paradise, Crysis 2, Medal of Honor, Mirror's Edge). Also, I'm able to activate one game on both (steam and origin), so it looks like I have two copies of games listed in brackets

Yeah, I haven't got any of this game, so it's cool deal for me. I'll pay that $5 to get some nice titles

And notice that EA gets nothing from that bundle. You can't give them anything even if you want. That's awesome!

But.. What about drm? Are that games drm free? I can't see this information on humblebundle.com

Anyone playing guitar here? What type (electric, acoustic, classic)? What kind of music do you play?

I always wanted to play a guitar, but never had one. When my sister borrowed one from somebody, I took it and just started playing. Actually I've got an acoustic guitar and going to buy electric. For now I play some rock and pop songs with chords but sometimes I play guns'n'roses, metallica, dream theater etc from tabs (sounds pretty bad.)

When i was newbie, i was trying to kill my team mates. Strafing, double jumping etc. was something magic for me. And i was eating much bananas while playing. But when my stats were very bad i got very very angry and throw bananas in people, my notebook and other, yelling at them

darn, i hate past time in english, hope it's all understandable.

Setting up something to automatically delete accounts is just another one of those things that's on the "nice to have, but I'll probably never get around to it" list.  It's also dangerous, as it might potentially delete legit users.  I'm not a fan of automatic deletion.  One wrong setting or a small bug could screw everything up!

Well, I think you're right. That might be dangerous.
But if you delete manually that type of accounts it's all right too

Just they are taking nicknames and then you see nick with numbers and other.. also it's a bit annoying when u're trying to make an account and all names you try are already taken.
On the other side it helps to keep database clean and  doesn't make forum's stats fake ("user that doesn't use his account is not user in my opinion).

I noticed some more few weeks ago, but I can't find their profiles any more

Maybe they're already removed

I think if XP was only awarded for playing on standard respawn time servers, players would play on the speed servers a lot less.

There is one more reason for that. People won't be able to reach levels too fast by camping and spawning (like on speeds). Levels will be more accurate to skills

Also unused accounts should be deleted from forums and dplogin after a year maybe? Or two? Cause that accounts take some nice nicknames that other people could use.

Anyway it's not the point of this topic. I just agree with LaZeRs
