DB-November-LE

This idea came up to me when everyone was complaining about ridiculously low frames per second rate on DB-November.

I took the map, removed this and that, changed stuff to match other stuff properly, etc...

I get 90-120 fps on an empty server, still needs testing on a full house ;) My system is: Pentium IV @ 2.0Ghz, GeForce4 Ti4600 128Mb, 512 MB DDR266, Windows XP Pro.

Download latest version here

Maybe this, or something alike, can replace the original DB-November in important(or not) matches, so everyone have fun withouth being bothered with slowdowns. Enjoy :)

Edit: First version has been uploaded to "Gameservers.nl - DBL3", for anyone with admin access and wants to use it. Latest version will be up in no time :>

Edit 2: Updated version released, same link as before, above. Realligned one of two static meshes and added team lights on the respective sides. No fps change, still 90-120 normal, 75 on max, empty server :)

Screenshots:
- Low/Normal detail, empty server:

- Max Details, everything on, empty server:

- My usual settings, low, with myself and 9 bots on the field(uses more cpu):

To Rens2Sea: j00 suck*.

To siLver: yes that was the map, except i finished it too late, nobody in the pickup channel, and the people that were had no info on the map and didn't bother with it since they figured it was simply november, will try again later on tonight.


Currently thinking on new map designs, but ones that could be both appealing and playable in official or full housed matches :>

*will upload screenshot later, not home at the moment -_-

To FeEdiKo: Thanks for screenies. :>

To Requiem: nope, size is the same, just that withouth the small building on one side and less details here and there, namely the trees on the sides, it looks somehow much different :)

If only we can implement this (officially or unofficially) in the dbl :x

Lowcube2 too, really plays much better than cube x_X

So? Teams could officially give Cube as their map for dbl games, and then (amongst eachother) decide to play on Lowcube2, which is way better for fps and removes the annoying crowd, whilst all the volumes stay the same exactly.

I haven't seen david for two weeks now, since Splash Damage became one, and if the year of 2004 brings me any luck, i won't see him again for a long time :D \o/
