Capture the Flag?


(|WND| Bassist4Christ) #1
  1. I was just wondering if it would be possible to make a capture the flag map Day of Defeat style. Where one team must gain control of all five flags at the same time and the other team must prevent it.

  2. How about Unreal Tournament style? Where each team has a flag to defend and both teams must try to take the other team’s flag and return it to their base. For this one it doesn’t have to be flags, it could be documents or something.

  3. Any suggestions or links to get me going in the right direction to achieve a map like one of these?

to 1.) Drakir has made such a map.
to 2.) Loffy and shuster_lang (?) have made such maps.
Loffy has released his source mapfile.

Recently there was a similar thread discussing this issue.
So you should try to search the forums for CTF or Capture the flag.

Edit:

The name of Drakir’s map is alleys.

Loffy’s Darji map is exactly what this is.

Yup, I made Darji just for those CTF lovers that I knew were out there.
Then I stripped it and saved only the essential entities, in the prefab. “loffy_ctf_prefab”.
Anyone can download it here: http://www.acc.umu.se/~loffy/mapping/maps/loffysctfprefab/loffysctfprefab.htm
The .map-file is included (that is why it is a prefab) Anyone can use it, to make a CTF style map.

I wonder if it is hard to make CTF maps now, for this new mod Domination? I will look into that later.

Hi N64 Goldeneye fan!
Yes! Wasn’t that a great game! It had a tremedeous replay value - you just had to play and play! I still have a N64 and the Goldeneye game! I replayed it a couple of times when I made those map that you refer to. Ah, memories… The music in the Goldeneye game is so good (I had forgotten about it). And, most importantly, a great game engine (nice enemy AI for the time).
I found the .map files for the Goldeneye on the Internet, including the Bunker and Facility maps (two of the best maps in the goldeneye game, no doubt about it - Im sure you agree). So, I dl the files and made the ET versions of these classic maps. (Note: The files were corrupted and I had to spend alot of hours fixing them.)

“did you ever get them on a server”
Yes, occationally you will find a server somewhere on the globe that runs one or two of my goldeneye maps. It is rare (hehe, the name of the comapny that made the original goldeneye game) but it happens.

I have coded CTF for my mod too, ( aimed on compatibility with Domination)
Basicly all what you need for domination is flag for both …
For stock ET , well , maybe you can try to do it with trigger_flagonly_multiple / trigger_flagonly and some scripting to check if flag isnt stolen…
