That’s looking really good, got time left for other projects?

IndyJones · 2008-08-28 14:43:35 UTC

i’m not sure. school is starting on monday, and i don’t know any languages but i may always help with maps.

Pegazus · 2008-08-28 14:49:37 UTC

Nice looking good job

cottonseed · 2008-08-28 14:57:03 UTC

Great map! Just to give you a heads up I sent you over a email.

dutchmeat · 2008-08-28 15:00:38 UTC

Well, we still need a mapper for our W:V project, so if you’ve got some time left…

Magic · 2008-08-28 15:46:42 UTC

Looks very good - will have a look at it.

Rudi · 2008-08-28 15:48:00 UTC

Nice map indeed, still a few small things such as the heights are just that little bit too high to jump off most things.

SSF-Sage · 2008-08-28 15:55:12 UTC

All of these had overlapping on my cfg. Try polygonOffset for that if you don’t have it yet. Also you can try sort banner.

Nice map, but there’s too much places to get shot from. I can hardly imagine myself playing this on nq with 3 panzers and 2 flamers per team. For etpro and no panzer it might rock.

Edit. resized the pic, that’s why it’s bad quality.

Higgins · 2008-08-28 16:01:11 UTC

{SSF}Sage, have you got a low spec machine? Because I’ve tried the same thing you have done in your cfg, but it had no effect on speed.

IndyJones, Nice looking map you have there.

Igloo · 2008-08-28 16:01:20 UTC

Well, I’ve just tested it… pretty cool one I can feel the SoF’s deatmatch atmosphere

Bugs:

no limbo camera for Axis Forward Spawn?
too bright in the room where an opera’s singer is played; also the light beam from one of the window is not looking well; btw the lamps’ glow is a nice idea but for dark maps imo
truck’s engine seems to start again every time it’s getting “stopped & then started” (however the “working sound” is still looping)

Hmm, I must say, the map’s size is very big just like Venice’s. Though I love Italy.

Greetings,
Igloo

No. It’s an old messed cfg. I don’t know what I had done to it. :stroggbanana: I don’t pub a lot so that cfg isn’t updated.

Kudos Indy !!! I encourage everyone to play the map. It’s really beautiful!

Magic · 2008-08-28 16:50:22 UTC

Yes - beautiful and full of atmosphere - and very detailed.
Really nice work Indy - will add it to our campaign.
As Igloo said - the start engine sound keeps playing and its a bit high too.
I can see the lines on the skybox - not sure what does it.
Looking forward to have go at it on the server.

anakinmalta · 2008-08-28 17:46:32 UTC

Amazing job

Well done

IndyJones · 2008-08-28 18:03:26 UTC

thanks for all comments. it’s just FP1, there will be another version for sure
about the jeep engine - as far i noticed, it occurs only on servers with mod - on etmain everything is working perfectly.

these lines are caused by skyfix during compile - i’m not sure what it does, but it helps on ati cards.

what would you say for a small party today at 20:00 UTC/GMT +2 hours ?
etpro/noquarter maybe?

just in case - TEAMWORK! without good teamwork map may seem unbalanced… but it is balanced.
happy fragging and see you on server!

Magic · 2008-08-28 18:15:57 UTC

Had a 1 vs 1 game on it - i like playing on it.
I think allies will have a hard time gettin the gold tho - you should consider a alternativ way up/down.
I was able to lean inside the wall where the gold is - easy to see when players are coming up/down - clipping should fix it.
Would join you if i could - but im away most of the evening.
I will let it run as default on my jaymod server if someone wants to play it.

pazur · 2008-08-28 18:17:09 UTC

-skyfix might be something old. The description in Q3map2 Toolz says: Removes the black borders around skyboxes (for ATI and newer NVIDIA gfx cards)

IndyJones · 2008-08-28 18:18:31 UTC

i’m not sure what do you mean with that leaning into wall. i’ve joined ur server. could you show me it?

teamwork is the key to success… play it a bit more and u will see that map is balanced

th0rn3 · 2008-08-28 18:43:37 UTC

Its so good to this map public playable. I remember when we had a run-thru around this map for a first time. Windows and doors were still caulks then.
Ill join the server when I have time
