New map - mp_ruins

(carnage) #1

Made this map a while ago but now i see the forums are back online though i might post and see if anyone picks up on it. The rtcw scence is pretty much dead now but maby someone out there is interested

i also included the source .map file so anyone learning to map or just interested in how it was made would probably do no wrong to grab the file

the file
http://files.filefront.com/mp_ruinspk3/;6538644;;/fileinfo.html

Its only a small map made in the space of a week. The objective is a king of the hill style game where the aim is to hold the control point in the middle of the map for longer than the other team. From playtest is a pretty fast map and good for small teams of around 3vs3

thanx carnage

Haven’t seen that your map is for RTCW.
But I guess it’s also available for RTCW.
As far as I remember it’s simply called “King of the hill”.

At rtcwfiles.com I’ve only found an W:ET map.
So may be there isn’t another one for RTCW.

Edit:

Argh hadn’t switched the search options to RTCW:
search results for “king of the hill” @ rtcwfiles.com

yeah got it
interesting map not quite what i expected

im satisfied that my map is different enough to this one to avoid any acusations of “being done” already

Any chance to get a conversion for W:ET?

maby but the source .map is included in the pk3 so anyone is free to have a crack at this. AFAIK the rtcw and ET maps and bsp’s are so similar that if the directory where i got most of the castle textures is copied into the pk3 and recompiled for ET it will probably work without any adjustment

I thought that Jaquboss even said that the BSP formats where the same. I could be wrong though.

Plus, the script and entity types could differ.

(Jaquboss) #11

they aren’t, i think that ET has one version forward, but it loads RTCW ones
ET will crash cause grid render ( if you see Command Map/Compass ), you have to add mapcoords for command map ( RTCW will ignore it so it still would work with both )
yeah some script commands are different ( description ones )
that also needs to be changed
and dynamitables needs to be done differently in ET
best would be to do two versions, not really so much work anyway

OK, thnx for the info (haven’t seen that map is included).
May be I will take a look.
