<div class="IPBDescription">lets try this again..</div> ok i have tried to contact g0opy again, through several methods and he wont reply in any form. all i have to say is that he did give the blessing for this remake, he even went on my server and played the partially finished map and gave it the ok. now im just going to post the screenies from the progress of the map, it wont be released from my computer in any form untill i get the ok again due to people saying that i decompiled without permission, and coolcookiecooks claiming that i used his map, well here is the proof that he had no part in the original map.

I max at aroudn 50 fps normaly... but if you drop from steady 100 to less than 50, what'll it do to my poor vid driver 0o
Other than that, looks hot

heh, the absolute higest amount of w_polys in the map is 500 and thats only in a few spots. (the hive room has been cut way down since that old screenie) and thats when i had a crap vid card (really crappy a tnt2 m64) the map lacks detail in areas, but i plan to fix that later on.
Turn up the lighting, I can hardly see anything.
grr.. im sorry but math classes are taking place right now.. will be edited, cya

its not really that dark, thats the difference between windows gamma and opengl gamma (open gl gamma is higher) so it appears darker.
and if its so dark that you cant even see the pictures, then you have problems because i can see them fine on all of my computers, and even the ones at work.
[Edit]
heh, that first screenie was from the original g0op_siege in the secret room. nz-nexus had no part in this map, i decompiled it and remade it from start to finish, im not enlisting anyone elses help.
the readyroom seems to be having problems with its texlights, ill fix that later. and i made the map so its not fullbright so that skulks actually have a place to hide without being seen from the fullbright floors and walls. im going to add some vents to allow more exits out of the hive room also.

why?

read the first post you idiot, this isnt his map. this is a remake of g0opys original not his.
i dont even know where to get your map CoolCookieCooks, nor seen it either.
as for why i made it, people on a server i play at say that the original was riddled with problems so i asked g0opy if i could fix it and he said yes, so i did. and its turning out quite good i would say. also g0opy seems to like it when he looked at it so im going to continue progress on the map.

Edit - Yar typos.
the original map was actually very heavily marine based. if you asked players that played the original map, they would say that marines win 90% of the time. the map isnt finished, and it will need to be playtested when it is done.
i moved the siege door out of the alien side of the map because it promotes a rush almost every game which the aliens didnt stand a chance. no cover from gls or hmgs and heavys after heavys after heavys were impossible to break through.
if you look at the pic of the door room, those halls lead into another room which has 2 res nozzles and thats the room to the siege room and that room also leads to marine start. i got to thinking that the room to siege room and marine start are way too close to the door room as it is so im going to have to make some heavy changes to the map to balance it.
i will post the original g0op_siege on my web server for download later today so you can see how it played, ect.
a siege map is where each side has lots of RTs, but are unable to reach eachother until a big door opens. then they fight for map control until the siege doors open, giving marines access to the siegeroom, which can siege ALL hives. at that point, it is a race to secure the Siege point. if marines get it, hives get popped by siege cannons. if aliens get it, marine base gets overrun (most likely)

if you look at the screenshots, you can see that the halls are quite big. in most of the halls you could fit 5 or 6 onos side by side in there. also i fixed the onos swimming in the floor thing (hull file) so you cant get stuck in the floor anymore or the ceiling (laf)

Oh No! <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
He Said the "N" word.?
ok these are the reworked hallways that lead out of the door room. im afraid the w_polys are a bit high in and around the door room now (tops at 650ish)
retextured the door room to go with the rest of the map.
