Due to overwhealming requests to make my map "slide_avalanche" longer, I decided to put my de map on hold (still haven't decided a name for it, but it's gonna be awesome) and remake slide. I'm making this thread to keep those who are interested, updated on my progress. For starters, here's what I am going to be changing in slide: Making another slide section before the existing one Putting more falling debris into the glass sections (stuff like soda machines, boulders, maybe even a car) Making a cannon that will shoot engines at you as you go down the ramp. Fixing the spawn and bottom textures so they are not purple anymore more breakable ramp sections (like at the bottom of the original ramp) adding an anti-afk system, so if an admin isn't around, you aren't screwed at the bottom of the map. (maybe) adding a secret ramp with my helicopter at the end Setting phys_pushscale to -2000 (this will make heavy objects fly towards you when you shoot them. Lots of fun) (maybe) adding env_cubemaps (to make things appear shiny and more detailed) and dynamic lighting (no promises though, it gets hard to light a big space like the one in slide First update: I have started making slide_avalanche_xtnded, however I have run into a big problem. I accidently saved over the original slide_avalanche with a corrupt file. This bassically means I have to make it from scratch. If I hadn't screwed up like this, I probably could have had it done yesterday, but because of the setback, I think it may take me until next Monday or so. This may actually be a good thing because now I can fix all of my old blunders from when I first started mapping, and make the map more efficient (less laggy and takes up less space on your hard drive). I'll keep posting my progress in this thread. |

You're not going to make a portal from bottom to top? No. And I don't want to. Here are my reasons: I feel the map is a lot better without the teleport because it keeps the each round short. If I had the teleport on the bottom, people would leave and go back to the top as soon as they arrived at the bottom, and it could take forever for the last two people to meet. Also you have to buy everything you need before you go down the slide. If you are ill prepared, you learn what will work better the next round. It also makes choosing the spoils from your dead enemies that much more essential. I like the fact that as I head to the bottom, I am sure that everyone will be there, waiting to attack. It just makes it all the more strategic so you have to choose where you want to land/camp. I also think it's a bad idea to have a tele because people will just camp in front of it. If they get outmatched at any moment, they just run away into the tele, and delay their deaths that much longer. Without the tele, you get the sense of "this is my ground, and I have to defend it." So what I'm saying is no, you won't find a teleport at the bottom of any slide maps I make. |
