[BETA 2] ff_amped

AMPED BETA 2 with new stuff, and bigger areas inside the bases, more lighting and interesting yard. :)

Yes, amped is here, still full of bugs, errors, issues, strange layout, weird cramped hallways, one sniper tower separately for sniper, double-respawn,
3 levels in base, small well-like flagroom, 2 bridges in the yard, battlements, water tunnel, ramp acess, elevators , underground walkways.. resupply-under the flagroom, hide-spots, rooms.. I tried to be original, tried to make the map layout original.. I used all my ideas.. everyone into this map.. I'm glad this map is one of my worst creations.. lol, i even hate my map.. but at the same time

it's amped.. the map is amped.. and finally.. for FF.

I'll put it on my server, I just hope this map is not too dark. Hard to spot spies :). Also, I've mirrored this map for you:

If any changes needs to be made, please PM me.

thanks guys, it was nice to hear!:)

Anyone throw up a ZIP download yet?

AmpedBeta2 Zip

Or download Winrar
It works with zip files also and others
:)

Thanks Baked Bean just downloaded it.
I have used win amp before but it was wiped off my PC during restore.
Prefer zip anyway now that it is included with windows.
I appreciate the link!

Ok first off it looks killer. I even took a few screen shots outside just cause it was so good looking.
The flag room area is very cramped. It could be a quagmire or it could be fun like Stowaway.
The map is very confusing at first because all the levels look the same (all look great).
Finally I liked the original version of the sewer better it had pipes etc if I remember right. It added more detail to that area. I can picture it having a foot of water under them to slosh thru. Enemies can hear you coming. The water ould then have a outlet into the courtyard thru a pipe. Its high enuf you can only enter thru a conc or gren jump etc. Water dripping out of that pipe into the yard. Not running out mind you but dripping out.
Still without a single change this is one of the best looking maps in FF. Great work.

Whats the status on a beta_3? If A few of the bugs get worked out like the ladders and elevators with the version I have I'd put it on the server but not rotation until close to a final.

Bump did you stop working on this map? Whats the status?

It's a shame...I really wanted this map in the map pack, but he has no contact information and hasn't been here in a while!

Was wondering if anyone had a working LUA for this map. I downloaded it yesterday, and i cannot spawn as any class. map looks great, I am surprised nobody plays it.

Wow, this looks great!

I humbly request this get finished and ready for pub play. :)

ambex hasnt been on in forever :( elmo, you map a bit. make a lua that works for this map LOL. and yes it is a beautiful map.

BTW, found the map here. I had no clue it even existed

I remember this. Taking a quick look at the Lua, nothing looks all that wrong. Some redundant/unnecessary code, though. Silly early mapmakers that made nonsensical Lua scripts.

Try this:

Can't test it myself until later. I could clean it up a bit more once I can test it as well. Like 99% of that backpack code is repeated for no reason.

tried the shutdown2 lua? If it has weird spawn names (seperate O and D spawns) you should be able to find them in the .bsp with a hex editor. I managed to do this for some other weird map with a broken lua.

Alright, here's a working/improved Lua:

smallpack = genericbackpack:new({

        grenades = 100,

        bullets = 100,

        nails = 100,

        shells = 100,

        rockets = 100,

        gren1 = 1,

        gren2 = 1,

      cells = 200,

        armor = 100,

        health = 100,

      respawntime = 30,

        model = "models/items/backpack/backpack.mdl",

        materializesound = "Item.Materialize",

        touchsound = "Backpack.Touch",

        touchflags = {},

        botgoaltype = Bot.kBackPack_Ammo

})

function smallpack:dropatspawn() return false end



redsmallpack1 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kRed} })

redsmallpack2 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kRed} })

redsmallpack3 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kRed} })

bluesmallpack1 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kBlue} })

bluesmallpack2 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kBlue} }) 

bluesmallpack3 = smallpack:new({ touchflags = {AllowFlags.kBlue} })
