Ha! I do don't i. It's the fact that i can't play tfc so every thing i see either related to TFC or FF i get so exiting, And deem of the day i can play again.

And to do with the map, it really does look fun and i will enjoy playing on it. Nice wide open spaces so more chance of running away from HW's & extreme spammers.

I used to play TFC on a P2 233 with a Voodoo3 3000 on 56k. Something must really be borked with it (granted Steam raised the system requirements).

Thats because i was really dying to play TFC and once i loaded it up i didn't have the heart to uninstall steam again. (but i have now as i'd had enough, as it was giving my name a bad look )

Specifications:

PIII 863 MHz
512 MB
80BG

I do have a Nivida Ge force 4 5200xt 128mb (but I've removed it as I'm not sure it's working.)

And yes i know what your thinking 'Oh thats just right for TFC' Well it isn't for me. When i ran tfc its was barely playable. Well not at all actually. Extremely slow. Just so you know what i mean it will be like trying to play HL2 on the same specs. Now imagine how tfc would run.
And its nothing to do with connection as I've tired it in LAN with bots and tweaks.

There's naught wrong with the specs... Although having a working video card would be useful, no?

I play HL2 at a steady 40-60fps and I only have 512mb of RAM.

Basically just prematch entertainment I assume you've tried pressing the button in the water ramproom on the wall just outside the glass columns?

There's also a maybe semi kinda useful use for it: an offy engineer could get in there and set of some emps to take out pipe trap / sg / defenders that are close by to the column. But basically, it's purely for prematch entertainment!

Cheers for the input Fresh.

1. The bottom hallway will be a rarely used route, so we haven't put much effort into it yet. Those particular textures look a lot better together when set to high texture detail, I've never even looked at that area with medium texture detail before.

2. Well spotted on that glitch. Hammer has been resisting all attempts to fix it so far...

3. This is related to what eat said previously. We're going to use a func_areaportalwindow to block the visibilty. From where you are standing in that 3rd screenshot, the window will be totally opaque. As you conc across the map, it will smoothly appear to become more and more transparent, until it's as clear as it is now. We've got this all working in test compiles currently.

This map has really great areas for FF's movement styles.

You know in my recent dev journal where I talked about how fun the FF movement is, and how I'll open maps and easily spend up to an hour just jumpin', trimpin', skiing (but I meant to say "sharking"), and whateverin' all over the place? Yeah, this map is one of those maps that I've done that on.

I was concin' all around the yard...concin' over to the base, sharkin' to that ramp, and then bunny hoppin' up into the base. And those rocks in the yard also provide some good trimping.

Good times.

You guys should really just release a demo with all the existing movement code in place so we can try it out with HL2DM to test maps on. That would be fucking awesome.

Note: areaportals don't work great in Multiplayer because the areaportals are open or closed for every player at the same time.
I'm not sure if that applies to the window variant though...

wait nm!
Quote:
Also try to replace func_areaportals with func_areaportalwindows as much as possible (if possible), since they work clientside (e.g. they can be open for player 1 while closed for player 2).
If you don't do this, you may have a map that runs fine but becomes worse and worse to play after a (certain amount of) doors that controll areaportals are open.

I love the way you've got a whole theme going with the teal glass and trim and everything. It's totally awesome when a map has a theme like that goin' on. That said for gods sake ditch the goofy striped texture. Lordy.

Also, have you considered using a different color of glass in the red base? Like maybe something kinda orangey.

Anyway I can't wait to play this.

This map needs more aardvark.


Shame it's racist against crocodiles and cowz.
