(WIP) ff_2close4comfort_v1

DoctorNuriel · 01-15-2011, 10:14 PM

Um, hi. I'm a relatively experienced mapper, but never mapped for FF before. Decided to do so, and to try some things out (mainly learning how to use the FF entities), resulting in this simple Capture The Flag map (still a work in progress). It's nothing special, really, but if you want to check it out, you can download it here: -Download Link-

Here is a screenshot: -Link-

I plan to add Location Name triggers later.

Ooo.. hello and welcome!

Looks good from the screen. Will be checking it out soon

moosh · 01-15-2011, 11:29 PM

Hello and welcome to the forums. Your map is very simple but it's a good start!

GeoKill-----> · 01-16-2011, 01:22 AM

Looks like a promising 2v2 map.

DoctorNuriel · 01-16-2011, 09:04 AM

Thanks, guys, both for the warm welcome and the compliments.

DarkieJ · 01-16-2011, 11:35 AM

Hi welcome, Looks good. Nice to have a new small map arround

Iggy · 01-16-2011, 04:53 PM

Agreed. Looks good, and should be playable with a small number of players. Keep up the good work!

DoctorNuriel · 01-16-2011, 06:50 PM

Many thanks! For the next version I plan on adding more detail to the flag room and the midfield, as well as fixing the spawn turrets (they can't hit ya if you stand right beneath them- maybe make a hole in the wall between the spawns and the lower corridor and put it there to give it a better angle to shoot would-be spawncampers?

moosh · 01-16-2011, 07:38 PM

Just add lasers that kill the enemy team, simple as that.

DoctorNuriel · 01-17-2011, 05:01 PM

How exactly do I do that? I could not find any tutorial on that- just a link to one I might have missed will do, thanks in advance

**Elmo** · 01-17-2011, 06:00 PM

Depends how you want it to look. That's all normal func_brush (non-solid with appropriate texture) or beam entities.

As far as killing someone goes its a trigger_ff_script and a little bit of LUA which you can copy from existing maps

If you haven't noticed we provide vmfs for some of our maps for reference in the source folder within the FF directory (SourceMods\FortressForever\source\maps). We try to ensure they're kept up to date.

ff_monkey.vmf has the trigger_ff_script named redslayer/blueslayer then you can open the lua file and copy the code it uses (just look for redslayer/blueslayer)

anything else, just ask

I'll help when I can, if I don't reply it's usually cause I don't know or someone else is better at explaining than I!

DoctorNuriel · 01-17-2011, 07:30 PM

Thanks a lot for the tip, next time I wonder something I'll check out the .vmfs before whining for answers in here :P

CHURCHMOUTH · 01-17-2011, 07:37 PM

Nah it's all cool to ask dude - but I might point you there again if I know it's there
