Dude, screenies or no, this is the best map release of the year so far imo. U rock. /me hugs czg again. http://www.planetquake.com/greyvoid/shot/terra3_1.jpg
czg, what the fuck is wrong with your monitor? what the title says. 6 secs probably possible.
on another note I found all the maps fun to play, well done! Awesome maps! Terra6 crashes on me if I finish Terra5 and load the next map. Loading the map from the console works fine though.
I liked the maps but i think you could easily reach a bigger audience, too.
[begin rant..] The quakeworld community is dying for new good dm maps, and all your help would be needed. Even now when I'm looking at terra6, it's got some excellent places that would rule in a fast-pace qwdm 4 on 4 match. It's also about the right size. Alas, it lacks dm entities and some more connectivity might not hurt. (A bit too much dead ends and long corridors?) But first try could be with just some dm entities! Putting spawns, weapons and ammo there. Remember, a lot of people like many of the original id episode maps, that weren't really designed with dm in mind but happen to work in dm anyway! Dm mapping can't be super-hard, and you can always refine the maps or in the end do just some entity fine-tuning. (with dm I usually mean 4on4 matches like at www.nqr.nu) There was a a custom map tournament, and from the maps made for it, cmt3 and cmt4 are most popular now, so you can run around a bit and check on "how its done". :) http://www.nqr.nu/cmt/season1/cmtmapsdl.php Of course, dm2, dm3 and e1m2 are "the big three", unsurpassable classics, and it's worth looking them a lot too. Really, making dm maps could be rewarding! If there's a better place for this discussion, inform me :) I don't know why you're so negative about these maps in your text file. They're all wonderful maps - It feels like it could be episode 5 of the original game :) Thanks a bunch!
and yeah, lodis, 6 is possible, maybe even 5 ;) Well, I took a look to the screenies, and I decided to play the serie, and... I really enjoy it. The mixing you did with std id-software/doom textures is really good. Achitectures (the more in castles part) are really interesting, and as well there is nothing to say about lightning effects which are very god as well.
Like Zwiffle, I really think it's one of the best maps I've played... Great work... It might be worth posting that in the GA thread if you want more people to see it.
However, there are a huge amount of good custom DM maps out there, you just need to look for them. I was following the Q1 DM mapping scene for a few years and saw lots of quality maps. Just go to any good Q1 mappers site and start following the links to other sites... there's arseloads of uber quality maps noone plays, go search for them!
start with planetquake.com/ramshackle then maps.quakeworld.nu, then go further and further and you'll find what you're looking for... :)= great maps is that maps what??? lollll i love then realy fun playing...roulf will be terra7 ? :))
Thanks for the info Vondur and Shambler, (I'll check those review sites that work) but so far, most of the specific-for-dm maps were not that good. :(
I'll give reasons, posting stuff in the general forum... (all dm-interested people check there). Czg you too :) Thanks for all the comments guys, glad you liked them.
As for making these DM compatible, I don't think so. Or at least, I won't be doing it. Too fed up with these fuckers to stomach opening them in editor ever again. But oh look! Here come the map sources marching along; http://67.15.24.154/~czg/terra_src.zip Yay! The day is saved! yeah WC 1.6.
Compiled with aguirre's utils: http://user.tninet.se/~xir870k/ Thanks for the sources - finally something to learn from :)
I didn't have the opportunity to play the maps yet, but I don't doubt that they are great! I don't see anyone else here have mentioned it, but, I heard from people in #TF today that the exit of terra4 is b0rked on normal skill. (It's b0rked on easy skill too, but you can still exit the level there.)
At the exit, it's supposed to spawn three monsters on hard, two monsters on normal and one on easy. As it is now, it spawns three on hard, one on normal and two on easy. This makes the trigger_counter on normal skill unable to open the exit because there's only one monster where it requires two, and on easy skill it opens after you've only killed one monster. Well well. Shit happens. Sorry if anyone got stuck there on normal, nothing I can do about that now, just noclip down to the exit please. As I've said not a whole lot of testing has gone into these maps, and the testing that has been has mostly been on easy and hard skill, because one assumes that if easy is ok, and hard is ok, anything inbetween is ok too! Anyway, I suck immensely and I grant you permission to photoshop genitalia onto my face if that should make you feel any better. Loved the maps. They had a definite id feel to them, only better. Such quality... It's great to be a q1sp player these days, may it never end =)
