Post by: Chef-Killer on December 25, 2010, 05:09:22 AM: Yeah, but he is too lazy to improve and finish any of them :P

I'll post my feedback to the new maps later.

Post by: Rocky on December 25, 2010, 06:01:57 AM: bah u just care too much about some misaglined textures and other small things..
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: Chef-Killer on December 25, 2010, 06:09:05 AM: Nope, we have enough (maybe too many) maps now. We should try to make a few more really good ones :)

Btw. what's with other games? I don't play other online games, but do they have so many unfinished or buggy maps, too?

Post by: sBi on December 25, 2010, 08:46:09 AM: that is right i remake all maps , which i made and i will complete all ... but some maps cant export to final in HQ idk why .

Post by: Chef-Killer on January 02, 2011, 09:23:23 AM: Well done :D

Can you upload the sound potok.wav please?

The func_timer has "randon" "5" and "random" "5". Delete the wrong setting "randon" "5" to fix the warning while loading the map.

I'd add a few more player spawns. Maybe change from 4 to 8 for each team. And please add "angle" "#" to them. At the moment some players look in front of a wall after spawning.

As you and abnormal said, there're many jumps. In my opinion a few too many ;)

Screenshots with stuff for one and both bases:
(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1207.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1206.jpg)
I'd like to see a clip brush here, too.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1209.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1208.jpg)
Misaligned texture.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1211.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1210.jpg)
Some faces of this barrel needs to be moved 1 unit. The red barrel looks ok.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1213.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1212.jpg)
Did you forgot a brush here? :)

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1215.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1214.jpg)
Two things I don't like here. The whole mid area is extremely open. And the transparent stuff is looking horrible in my opinion. I'd like to see a nice texture for them.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1217.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1216.jpg)
All red barrels are misaligned. The blue ones are ok :)

Online @ [OTB] Beta!

You don't need to use the HQ export. Post here, if there're problems with the normal final compile, too. I really hope that you will finish some of your nice maps sometime. I'd prefer seeing an other finished map than this one :P

Really great job ;) I wish all people would map and improve their maps like this.

Three more screenshots:
(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1266.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1265.jpg)
This red barrel is still misaligned.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1268.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1267.jpg)
Misaligned in both bases. Didn't notice it before.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1270.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1269.jpg)
Here're also three misaligned barrels. Didn't notice them before, too.

Now, I would still wait a few weeks with the final release, that we can test the gameplay.

Post by: sBi on January 03, 2011, 11:07:32 AM: yes yes .... i will remake this and complete it again ... you cant notice these barrles, because its new in b2, but i have bad btaxtures maybe, i think, that is good .. ok ok remake it
thx for feedback chef ;)
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: Chef-Killer on January 03, 2011, 11:14:33 AM: Noticed one more thing. It looks like the new barrels on the ice are flying. I would move them down to the ground. And the bottom of these barrels are misaligned :)
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: sBi on January 03, 2011, 11:16:46 AM: my barrels textures are still different, i cant to see this ... i must add newa textures for barrels
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: sBi on January 03, 2011, 11:19:23 AM: ok this barrels i will move down ... and you think, that this barrels there are OK ? or not
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: Chef-Killer on January 03, 2011, 01:04:41 PM: You don't need to change your textures. I made new .wal files for you. You should see the dark lines in bsp with them :D

Go to C:\BSP\pball2\quake2\pball\textures\pball\ and replace the current barrel textures with the new ones.
Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: sBi on January 03, 2011, 03:43:43 PM: thx ... your barrles are great ;)

A few stuff for both bases.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1320.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1319.jpg)
Here's a small and bad looking edge.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1322.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1321.jpg)
I'd like to see clip brushes here, too.

(http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1324.jpg) (http://www.otb-server.de/wbblite/attachments/1323.jpg)
Wrong bottom texture.

Post by: Chef-Killer on March 05, 2011, 07:06:01 AM: Lol, you have funny angle values for the player spawns. Normally it's just one value out of a cirle (0-359 for 0°-359°). I have absolutly no idea, for what reason a second value should be useful. I guess the game just ignores it.

I'm not sure what you changed, but you forgot my last feedback.

An ugly looking hole/edge you need to fix.

Post by: jitspoe on March 28, 2011, 08:46:02 PM: Recorded a demo with some feedback. Looks good overall, but it could really use some tweaks to increase accessibility. I've uploaded it to the beta server. PM me if you need the login to play test it.

Title: Re: Newmap Scottish Highlands - scoth_b1
Post by: jitspoe on February 20, 2012, 08:24:53 PM: It's been a while since I've looked at this map, but it seems most of the issues I pointed out in beta4 are still there -- problems with the water sound (why is there even a water sound when everything is ice?), grassy slopes that are too steep to walk up, lots of unnecessary jumps that are easy for experienced players, but make the game very difficult for new people, etc.
