Hi!

My next map has a just reached beta-Status. Hurray! :p
And it got really really mad.
Its more a fun-map, than for serious playing.
=[ACE]=Ich and me had a lot of fun playing it in its
pre-beta status.

Map Info:
------------
In this wicked sick DB Warfare map,
you are playing in an "Halfpipe" with a very slipery icy floor.
And its allways going DOWN!

Map Size:
------------
About 5 Meg.

Download:
-------------
Version 1: http://www.pcgamemods.com/3196/
Version 2: http://www.pcgamemods.com/3292/

Map Changes V1 to V2:
-------------
Rebuild the Player Starts
Added BumperVolumes
Removed Asteroid Ring
Enlarged both top Ski Jumps
Changed Fountain to SuperFountain
Smallered the middle Wall
Changed the Radar to only GreyShades

Spoilers (Close your eyes below this point):
------------
The green area is teleporting the player to the yellow area,
to make the whole thing a loop.

All players can duck to lower the sliding.

All players can duck on a ski-jump to stop at its peak,
releasing the duck-key will continue the jump.

Beeing in move is good and bad, but standing still is even worse,
you make a good target for all other enemy players.
So keep moving!!!
-----------

You can open your eyes again!

Have fun with it and report bugs here!
Maybe the spawn points wont work as the intend to be
working.

Yeah, I downloaded and had a go, no-one wanted to play with me though... So I have yet to experience it properly yet.
Interesting idea though.

hi =[ACE]=Noko,

nice to hear from you

juicy_fruit had a server open with it yesterday,
we played about half a hour on it.
it was really funny.

there some bugs in it, but i´m working on the next version,
but how to remove/modify a map, if nobody makes suggestions.

waerters =[ACE]= server has it too.

isnt that unfair for players who spawn 'lower'?

=(ACE)=Nolan · Post by **=(ACE)=Nolan** » 01-12-2003 17:37

why?
they are closer to the teleporters,
so it is harder to shoot at them in the first round.
and if roundtime fits they can shoot from top position.

There are unfortunate places to spawn in every map (so long as the other players can aim).
How about the ability to teleport a projectile from bottom to top? That would be fun, it would also mean that players at the bottom could actually reach any player they wanted to.

youre right,

look at the testmap.
two spawnpoints are a sure kill in the first round.
just a fountain there and they are dead.

dont think that it is possible to teleport projectiles to the top,
but i check that out.
it would surely be a funny aspect.

As I understand it, DBW is a team game, and so it should only matter that each team has an even start.

thx yoyo,

on every side a player starts at the bottom, so its even!

@Noko and his new sig:
N1, but originaly we are five
=[ACE]=ICH, =[ACE]=Black, =[ACE]=Malkavian,
=[ACE]=MetalDawn and me.

Whoops... You know I did wonder If I was just imagining Black but I just assumed I was (still) crazy.

I'll get down to changing it and possibly making it smaller (sorry).

no prob and it is really a little big,
by the way did you played downhill recently?

ACE-ICH · Post by **ACE-ICH** » 03-12-2003 02:29

17 and so stoned lol

Noko · Post by **Noko** » 03-12-2003 11:10

LOL.

I played downhill with you and ICH didn't I? Please don't pursuade my insanity and say I imagined it...
I changed the caption on my sig, I'll make it smaller in 12 hours or so, as I'm at college at the mo.

and I'm not stoned... just very happy.

and tell us about the fun you had.

a new version has just been released. :p
