Beta Maps That Are Never Gonna Be Completed IMO

tons of people have offered to pick them up or help out, 
and still jack shit has been done with them.

i may have a optimized version of redgiant done by then(ff_redgiant_g). no need in replacing ff_redgiant, it plays fine for me and alot of other ppl. the main changes will be:

1.) optimized better
2.) removed the falling snow
3.) tweaked a few displacement edges/bugs
4.) "MAY" use a different sky theme


also, i'm currently working on another map, i will try my best to have it ready, so far is coming along quickly..its going to be total war when its done!

[squeek.]

You can take Pitfall off the beta maps list. And, I don't know if Torch will be finished in time or not. We'll see.

[a082]

i want and just want an official high quality ff_2fort

[Dr.Satan]

It's being mapped...just takes a bit. Probably won't make it into 2.0 but the next patch after will have it if not.

and Localization?

[GambiT]

oh, yea and that, i had already started on it but forgot about it.

that will be done to.

[BumGravy]

I been back playing a bit more FF recently, interested in the direction the new Beta is going. FF still has the same old problems at the moment tho, that is SD2 and well constantly rotating on servers so the best you can expect is a big deathmatch fight out in the yards of these maps. My view has been that it is boring maps leading to stale gameplay which has held FF back, and maps with faster more innovative gameplay like Aardvark are barely played and no one seems to be making similar maps.

Saying that, I noticed my map ff_flowb1 was included in the beta section, Ive had a lot of people say how nice it looks but not really anything on how it plays. I wouldnt mind finishing it just to see how it plays in the new patch but like I said i dont know how the gameplay stands up at the moment.

[Dr.Satan]

YAY...glad to see you back.

I haven't really run it on a server, but I'll set up a time to get it on the UGC Server and let people check it out if your ok with that?

It was included in the FF Community Map Pack 1 beta list too, but I didn't include anything that had beta in the name b/c it's bound to change and compiling that map pack took about 6hrs. so there was no way in hell I was going to compile it over again for once beta map that got released finally.

Hell I really wanted to put badlands in there, but it's still in beta.

We tried to play it in a #ff.pickup gather, but we had server troubles and could only get about 5 minutes in at a time. Hopefully we can get a full pickup going on it soon.

[Dr.Satan]

bump...been pretty busy lately so I'll try to update this here soon, but if anyone has seen any new maps released please post for me!

[squeek.]

I'll have dm_squeek finalized pretty soon.

[GeoKill----->]

Almost there.... but no maps? Maybe flow

[squeek.]

Satan you can add DM_Squeek.

http://www.fortress-forever.com/foru...ad.php?t=14836

EDIT: Seeing as there is a severe lack of newly released maps, perhaps make this one include all the betas excluded from the previous pack? Siden, xpress, derive and the like.

[Dr.Satan]

possibly...also there are more then what I have, I just haven't updated this in a while...I'll try to get to it tomorrow I promise!

[Ihmhi]

No, don't include betas FFS. That's now how map packs work. They should include final, unchanged versions so my folder is not cluttered up with _b2, _b3, etc. etc.

If there's not enough maps there's not enough maps... just release it as a map pack.

[squeek.]

The betas in circulation are played quite a bit. Not sure if we'll ever see a final out of some of them (xpress).

[Ihmhi]

If a beta hasn't changed since the last map pack and has good circulation I would agree with putting it in. Just, leave it as Dr.Satan's editorial discretion - I don't want every mapper and their momma trying to drop their betas into map packs.

[GambiT]

i dont want ANY betas, if theres a beta map in the pack, even if its just one, i will not DL it. the whole point of a map pack is to have COMPLETED maps.

if they want their maps included they can get off their asses and finish them.
