I am getting a bit of a geek-crush on the smoothly spoken Englishman that is DAZ with his insightful and thought-provoking series of derping around missing all the secrets and even items that are right in front of him errrr I mean talking about mapping while playing cool levels. So I thought his channel was worth it's own seperate thread - entertaining for players and mapping veterans, and potentially very useful for newer mappers as DAZ does offer some really good views on mapping theory. Also DAZ go ahead and put all your updates in here.

thanks daz! :)

but whatever engine you use must have stuffed up the info_intermission, because I placed it facing a very nice vista and not right up against an ugly torch :(

The intermission camera is almost always wrong in demo playback, even if it looked perfectly fine during the recording. BJP's convdem tool has an option to (attempt to) fix it, but it only works on protocol 15 and 10000-2 demos.

Heh, yeah it had a nice vista when I recorded it. As Negke says, it got b0rked on playback :(

Not sure why, but every custom map (not id1 maps though) that I play in Quakespasm, I've gotten a weird intermission camera. I just assumed some people were being overly artistic... "Look at this torch, it is beautiful!" I noticed it during my playthrough of retrojam2 and The Hell That Is Coming last night.

Weird

I don't recall any recent changes in QS that should have broken that. Do you get the same cameras in Fitz 0.85 or Mark V?

#273 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/12/06 19:10:17

THTC doesn't have a proper camera. So ignore that. :)

#274 posted by mfx on 2014/12/06 19:47:09

I assume most people use only one info_intermission in their maps, not knowing they should place 4 of them.
QS resets to the playerstart as intermission then which is unfortunate.
I only assume this is the reason.

#275 posted by JneeraZ on 2014/12/06 19:57:48

4? For what, co-op? Is that a realistic concern these days? Was it ever?

#276 posted by oh, that person on 2014/12/06 20:21:34

I'm pretty sure just one intermission camera is enough, and 4 is only the limit.

Intermission Camera

#277 posted by Mike Woodham on 2014/12/06 22:37:19

Doesn't it choose one of up to four at random? And if none, then the players start position?

#278 posted by necros on 2014/12/06 22:55:51

that is the behaviour I have observed

That's Essentially It

Also fun fact: you can killtarget intermission cameras. Get some sweet conditional action up in that.

In the Shadows allowed you to switch between the cameras on the intermission screen by firing, I thought it was a pretty nifty addition.

Hmmm

Maybe it could automatically cycle through them.

Youtube is being slow to encode the higher resolution 60fps version of the video so give it some time if its not available yet!

I might play trough it without cheating sometime.

WAY TO MISS ALL THE REALLY EASY SECRETS

Also, the ammo and health don't respawn on timers, but instead they respawn along with waves of enemies. Means the health and ammo is controlled so that you have enough for all the respawns, but never lets you get too much to break the balance.
