Seeking ET Mapper...

(ArnoWar) #1

Hi all… This will be my first post here…

We are seeking ET mappers that could be interested in making maps for a tournament that we have started, where the Allied and Axis fight each other in a number of battles / campaigns HOMEPAGE

What we are dreeming for…
Any map where Axis are defending -> A version of the same map where Allied are defending.
Any map where Axis are attacking -> A version of the same map where Allied are attacking.
Dual Obj. maps like Wizernes and Marketgarden in RtCW.

Any help will be very much appricated :slight_smile:

We will also be delighted to play test some your new maps on our server out side battles.

Ofcurs we also seek new players… anyone can join! :wink:

Having two maps sure is an expensive way of playing in stopwatch mode or doing /ref swapteams :???:

As for dual objectivce maps, if you wish to run a campaign you’ve got to be darned careful because they are very easy to make unbalanced.
The best (only?) way to make sure a map is 100% even is to mirror half of it, but that generally results in more boring looking maps (although to be honest that entirely depends on the quality of the mapper - I still remember bridge very fondly from my RTCW days :slight_smile: ).

I, speed mapper at your service.
what shall we start on first? I’m best will mapping-out large areas according to a drawn map or objective base game-flow.

brushwork, texture and lighting, and doing it fast are my main skills.

I’ll check back here soon for a replie

Yes your right… but it isent that much fun for a Allied Division to play Axis the half of the tournament … hehe

In our RtCW tournament we have that kind of versions of Beach, SE mitchelldown, powescape_v101 and wroclaw. And that has been a gr8 sucess… get em here if you want… http://montar.adsl.dk/rtcw/maps/BE_maps/

Probably the quickest way to swap a map’s teams would be to manually hack the spawn entities from one team to another, and the other relevenat entities (as well as objective descriptions too). If someone coded a program to do it, you could then swap any ET map in existence, including the official ones.

I won’t comment on the legality of such a thing of course :slight_smile:
