Well i actually tried a lot more snow, but came to this because it all ends up white and blending together. I could use more on the outside i guess. I have plans to pile snow around everything outside with meshes. I also want emitters blowing a little snow through the broken windows.

stevelois · ...

The map our dear blitz is refering to by lord is WAR-Glacial. there is a pic in the final thread of lord stuff (blitz as alzeimer, poor thing :p).

I agreed with Blitz, it need much more snow than atm. Small piles inside & other much bigger piles outside on roofs & the ground would be appropriate but you already planned to add them so...

Bl!tz · ...ǝp¡s ɹǝɥʇo ǝɥʇ uo

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

OMG its back to the Unreal Old Farts i see...LOL
Thanks guys.

Edit. did you think the icey walls and stuff was enough, i still want the colors and textures without too much white.

Odedge · Feedback-Master ..

Cool, winter is fast approaching. I made a winter version of DM-Tomac, but only made it snow once the Udamage was taken (thanks to Sebastien).

While it looks like there could be more snow, don't go crazy as it will hurt game play.

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

Here is a link on Mediafire. Since filefront is all screwed up. disbelief

Bl!tz · ...ǝp¡s ɹǝɥʇo ǝɥʇ uo

thx for the mediafire link craig,but......unfortunatly the map still crashing and fyi it s "teminal" that i just have dl and not "terminal wintered"(except if u use same name for both of course...i hadnt the time to see it crash very fast

if i can help you just ask ;if u want to send the uncooked file so i try to rebuild and cook it here ; it ll perhaps work here....i say that because i map on two computers here and sometimes only with UT3 editor some cook & builds work on one and not on the other and sometimes if i mixed some packages it just dont happen on the other one ;)

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

LOL. Your right I linked to the wrong damm map.
Where are my pills.

Bl!tz · ...ǝp¡s ɹǝɥʇo ǝɥʇ uo

ok...it....work......like a charm :)

very good map and imo really more fun in this version even for 1 v 1 ;)

pure asskick gameplay ;totally different than the 1 v 1
all the action is now centralised on the railway and the outside of the structure
pure fun on the bridge
no big drop downs in fps
i still think u need more snow on the ground but i think the material for the outside ground//floor dont fit to a snowy ground with thoses "holes" ; perhaps something more flat to give a snowy effet more visible...now it give a weird chess grid aspect with the "holes"

excellent job and really happy u found the way to fix the bugs; thx for ur efforts ;)

edit:...i forgot to tell that u really did a pure diamond on visuals; the map looks so true; one of the more realiistic i ve seen so far...congratz

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

Thanks mate. Im glad it works now. And thanks for the multiple DL...LOL
Do you mean the terrain should have more snow and less grass showing?

Bl!tz · ...ǝp¡s ɹǝɥʇo ǝɥʇ uo

no i mean thoses " stones" are slimm and if we can see them through the snow it mean that there not a lot of snow
if u remove them it ll give the feeling of "more snow" because we ll imagine that they are under a couch of snow
it look more snowy when they arent on the view like u see on left of the horrible blue thing that i ve done with my mouse on the picture :)

in "a" it s where it gives me a "chess grid " feeling

for the grass it s not so important even with lot of snow some are going out of the snow volume depending of their size...the stones have all same size ;srry cant find the right word for them :p

in fact it give the feeling that it just started snowing with the "stones"

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

So you think get rid of the stones and just have the terrain. I know what you mean.

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

I removed the stones and you were right mate it does look better. I tryed some mixed material half snow/tiles but it crashed on recook so i scrapped that idea.

Anyway new DL here. http://www.mediafire.com/?ziy1d2gczw5

I dont think i have much left to do.

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

Thanks guys. smile

stevelois · ...

Wow, that's much better m8 biggrin

Only small things that bother me from those pic is :

- The bridge (metal stairs) need something below (I know I could say that earlier, sorry). Like few columns.
- The snow on the roof in the 2 pics is to much in a straight line & all the other roofs don't have snow neither (from those pics at last) ?
- The 3 containers are all at level. It would be better if all of them where rotate a bit making them not 100% flat on the ground.

Bl!tz · ...ǝp¡s ɹǝɥʇo ǝɥʇ uo

the snow at the bottom of the containers is pure visual asskick !

Diesalot · Drinker of too much beer

@Steve. Thanks mate.
I know about the bridge and the roof, i plan to fix those.
What do you mean with the containers, like tilted over a little?

Thanks blitz mate. Maybe i can make a CTF version too biggrin

stevelois · ...

Yep, I think you can say that but I'm not sure it's the right term ?

I mean, rotate them like 5 degrees on the X & Y axis so it's not flat, or 100% parallel with the ground.

Same here. I may not be able to test it until Thursday evening, so...

Odedge · Feedback-Master ..

Ok, how many versions of this map have I played recently? Anyways...

1. Near the Udamage area, a lot of the snow bank meshes, the player can walk into and see inside the mesh.

2. I think you set up a purple light to go on when the Udamage is available (haven't looked at the map in the editor). If so, I believe it's "enabled" at the start of the level, so it automatically comes on. You should uncheck the "enable" property and make it turn on and off in Kismet.

3. I don't remember the jump pads, going back to the bridge, but I am liking them. They add to the flow of the map nicely.

4. I know I have said this before, but I will say it once more, the sound for the train passing by seems a bit "deep", for what it's worth.

5. Just a thought, I don't know if the bots are smart enough to avoid the train. Do you think it's possible to toggle the path nodes that cross the tracks while the train is passing by?

In DM-CarbonFire, they toggle the Lift Exits for one of the two platforms that move in the "outdoor" area of the map.

Other than that, I like the new winter look and the additional sections of the map. Keep it up.

Edit: You may already know this and I may sound "snobby" for mentioning it to you, but it's a good philosophy to have unique file names every time you release a map to the "public". This will help us keep track of which version we have and it will prevent any version conflicts online (there, I said my peace

).
