[WIP] Untitled - Baddcog 1st map

[BrokenArts]

Yes, I do have the SVN, I just updated it this morning. I plan on running through a bunch of maps this weekend. Thanks.

 

If you do need help with readables, etc. I'm good at that. If you want, I can help you there.

Ran through this last night. You've got a good start going. Had fun with the guard on the lower level, he chased me into the water. I left him there, came back later, he's still coughing, took him out with one arrow. Slow to die you bastard.

 

I noticed the different look, almost an oil slick look of the water, nice look. I could see from the windows the street below, you've done a lot with that. I wanted to go and explore that. There were some z-fighting issues, I know its real earlier for major nit picking. I did see some weird looking lights, almost looked like a outline of city lights, or something, it was odd, followed me where ever I went. So far, in a short period of time, you're off to a good start, keep going.

That sounds like editor text in the distance. If it comes from startpack you can turn it off by switching to Hard or Expert I think. It gets removed before finalising anyway.

[Baddcog]

Thanks. The streets will probably be the get away, open front gate or something. Fidcal's right about the text in the sky.

Didn't think the guard would go down in water, maybe I'll have to clip that. I don't know, sometimes people like to screw with guard like that, sometimes it messes up no kill objectives (not sure I'll have that though).

 

I will take you up on some readables help too, maybe I'll outline some stuff and let you makle them work

[BrokenArts]

Anything I can do, let me know. The guard just happened to follow me into the water. I wasn't trying to get him *into* the water. He got near the edge, and what was cool, he crouched down! Then he just sort slipped into the water. That was cool, I liked seeing him crouch down like that.

hey - some news of your map?

No, I've been stalling, bored with it and preoccupied with other stuff. Gonna try and wrap it up by at least x-mas. I'm already over my self imposed month deadline so why not procrastinate a little more eh?

[SiyahParsomen]

please don't rush, especially when you are bored. Because haste makes waste. I improved my English yay!

Baddcog, have you made further progress with this map?

[Fidcal]

Butting in ... I think it's on final beta. I was helping with final objectives an hour or so ago. I've seen bits and pieces of this map but not actually played it yet! I think this is the last of the Christmas compo ones. DELETED! I'm looking at the wrong thread. So is this another Christmas map?

[Baddcog]

Nope, this was a thanksgiving map. I started a month before Thanksgiving with the purpose of a one month plan. I still think I can just about finish it in 'one month of work' but i just got sidetracked for a few months and haven't touched it.

 

I've been getting urges lately to get back at it though, got my computer back to normal... I'll probably start getting some more stuff done fairly soon.

 

Bascially I have to wrap up some terrain (3rd floor polishing, objects on 2nd, clean up patrols/sounds and get the outside complete [porting Ottoj55's buildings over for nice city scape surround for TDM]). Then testing.

Oh, books, objectives, inventory, delete unused startpack stuff...

[Fidcal]

OK, thanks. Basically I'm trying to wrap up the Xmas situation and evaluate when to call the whistle so I don't want to overlook anyone. I think it's just Biker's FM to come which I thought this was at first in haste!
