What mod are you talking about, because there’s also the www.etnam.org Vietnam Mod :confused:
With special maps made for that mod already like Oldbones and Kha Ran Than

Someone should port “Stream” from the Vietcong game to that mod. You can check it out in the MP demo, which you can download here (there’s also a patch, but you don’t need it just to explore the map; it’s primary purpose – which it failed at, incidentally – was to disable a major exploit).

That’s a great map. I played the shit out of that demo, despite the aforementioned aggravations, just because I loved that map so much. Explore it carefully! There are caves, which you should find easily enough, but don’t miss the hidden entrance behind the foliage. Also look for the tunnel (any decent 'Nam game has to have a tunnel!), which sadly never got much use but was a nice touch anyway. If someone did a faithful and accurate port of that map – for any mod in any game – I’d play it. I consider Stream to be a classic on par with de_dust. It just hasn’t gotten the same recognition because the game never did (because VC isn’t nearly as good as CS – in fact VC sucks, and VC2 was worse).

Edit: If anyone decides to tackle this, when exploring the map, start your server in CTF mode, which is the one most played (and the one that should be recreated, IMO). The “escort the pilot” mode disables the flags. There’s also deathmatch, which disables the flags and adds weapon spawns at various locations. Anyway CTF is what you want, so you can recreate the flag locations.

Are these models only working for vietnam or also the rest? Else I can also include this in the UGR ET Db

i had a short look on the map… and if u can trust my experience, this map is 100% convertable, it’s a very low-poly game, and therefore it perfectly suit et.

i had a try on the area with broken heli - screen from radiant.

i think that it would take around month to make conversion.

(haternet) #8

Maybe less, judging by how fast you obviously work!

(shagileo) #9

Models are only to be used in the Vietnam MOD
Also, I’m not sure if you had the permission of the mod authors to create this topic, thunderpwn.

xD

yeah, i ‘need’ full version to take a look at editor, then it could be even less.

quote from one of our designers from the vietnam mod:

Yes, we already knew about that topic on SD forums.

We know nothing about this project. Etnam.org is not related with it.

greets and thanks

(reaply) #12

Thunder has his own vietnam mod.

(Nail) #13

like, care ?

(twt_thunder) #14

as vs|warrior says my mod is not related to theirs and the site will only be for the one who like to make vietnam maps…nothing else… btw me and vs|monkey has allready spoken about the mod and…no it’s not the same… my skinmod only contains vietcong and nothing else on the axis side…and reaply… never released this mod… and probably wont since etnam mod is a lot better…

(reaply) #15

Bah, just keep trying man. The mod is their priority, you work like 24/7 so :D.
