New version of Beach

(Gringo Starr) #1

Sorry for spamming this, but that RTCW forum doesn’t seem too lively :slight_smile: Also, this is probably better suited for the General section. The following is a screenshot of wildwest_beach, to be released with a new version of code in a couple days. New weapons including a shotgun and molotovs. Let me know what you think, Good Bad or Ugly. It is very close to mp_beach. Although I put in over 100 hours converting it (although RTCW maps work in WW when compiled with “wildwest” “1” in worldspawn), it is true to the original. The credit remains with the original author of the map.

Oh yeah, and you mappers might be able to appreciate the fact that I shrunk it 75% (which is basically like starting from scratch, since I had to replace all the enitites) . WildWest is a little slower paced, but you won’t notice in this map :slight_smile:

Wished someone would make a Beach conversion for ET.

(Gringo Starr) #4

That’s a start! I haven’t made a map for ET yet, but I imagine it wouldn’t be hard to convert it. Why not give it a shot yourself? :slight_smile:

Why did you block off edges near the exit from the forward bunker? Now you cant jump up there…

(Gringo Starr) #6

Well, since I shrunk the map, it became too easy to jump up there. I didn’t want the trenches to become obsolete. Plus, haven’t you ever seen people trying to jump up there block the doorway? Now people wont be messing around there. Instead, right around the corner is a ladder :slight_smile: Thanks for the feedback, I imagine people won’t like it at first, but wouldn’t it be horrible if nobody used the trenches? lol

It looks great, it would many gamers happy if you converted for ET.

Can you supply us with more screenshots?

Here are some more…sorry Xerxes, you may actually have to download WildWest to play this one :slight_smile:

The “store room”, where the bandit’s keep their gold :slight_smile:

The back stairway has been replaced with rock walls you have to climb. I know I got sick of making all those turns down the stairway :slight_smile: That pool of stagnant water at the bottom breaks your fall.

And last but not least…

Looks Great Gringo, i havent played WW since the last major update but it was always good fun. Appreciate the work put in and reckon this will be a good way to spice up the Beach Map so well loved (and imprinted in my mind, bet i could play it with my eyes shut!)

(Majin) #11

LOL, just noticed the barb wire was cactus’s. Haha thats awsome;)

At last someone has done something original with the mp_beach theme as suppose simply converting. Some really cool touches. :drink:

(Gringo Starr) #16

Ok, the last bit of pimping. Does this look familiar? lol Props to Hewster for making it :slight_smile:

Gringo, when can we expect WildWest 1.5 to be out? I thought it was going to be before Christmas.

(Gringo Starr) #18

It’s not Christmas yet :slight_smile: (except maybe in the Phillipines). Just kidding, thanks for the interest in it. Finishing touches are being done, so it should be available real soon. Could be just a few hours away. :slight_smile:

(JIM_BOB7813) #19

Cool!! WildWest is one of the best MODs I have ever played! :banana:

WildWest 1.5 is now public. Just make sure RTCW is patched to the latest version.
