We Need New Maps!

DEADscott · August 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">Clients asking for new maps.....</div> Our community loves new maps. Problem is there are not many besides ns_thief4 that run well with NS 2.0. So if you have a map that WORKS under 2.0 please post it here. All maps will be run on our server and if we like them added to our map cycle!
Thanks.

I know Elite Guard has all the maps, but most of them just run like cr#p. WE NEED NEW MAPS!

I believe that ns_Hydrosity has already been released, and ns_Mystic and ns_Thea are both close to completion. Thats a whole load of serious maps about to be released, which is never a bad thing.

DEADscott · August 2003

Cliffhanger is OK, alot of small mistakes but fun to play. Not good enough for the rotation though,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sorry. Still not a bad map!

DEADscott · August 2003

Our current mapcycle:

ns_caged
ns_eclipse
ns_thief4
ns_hera
ns_lost
ns_nothing
ns_hydrosity
ns_mineshaft
ns_origin
ns_tanith
ns_veil
ns_bast

Erias · August 2003

I'm working on a map, and its around the same level as the official ones in my humble opinion (and it isn't any of that "funmap" bilge, its a serious map.) I dunno when it'll be done, though, I just started working on this one a week ago, when I picked up VHE for the first time in months, with the desire to finally put my mapping, texturing and modeling skills to good use and create the ultimate NS map. I'm about 70% done Marine Start, with the rest of the map in a primordial state but looking promising.

Papercut · August 2003

I will compile nomblizkikko with the new hull files any day soon, hopefully today, Im lazy... :/

Asraniel · August 2003

ns_napo, look signature

5EuroSchein · August 2003

what about ns_fenris.
it has been released within the 00 mappack with several other well done maps.

Mart · August 2003

Erias, make sure you get it playtested regularly once it's playable, to work out problems with gameplay imbalance and the like. The Nano servers regularly do private map PTs for map authors with the help of EC/ECN and their groupies.

Asraniel, just a minor suggestion, how about having the link in your sig go to a page with screenshots of napo and then a dl link. I just like to see what i'm dling before I actually do.

SnakeUb · August 2003

2fortsb8 is compiled with the corect hull file and ns_lockdown_b3 is 2.0 compatible

ns_alone is <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=43464' target='_blank'>here</a> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Doombringer · August 2003

I got NS Alone and will have to nab Hydrosity and Thief. Any others that are already out, completed, tested, etc.?

Mendasp, I'll get your map too, if it's 'done'. I know you've been working on it.

DEADscott · August 2003

Added ns_napo to the server rotation. I have to write .res file for ns_alone and ns_phobia so it will take longer to add them. Updated server mapcycle:

ns_caged
ns_eclipse
ns_thief4
ns_hera
ns_lost
ns_nothing
ns_hydrosity
ns_mineshaft
ns_origin
ns_tanith
ns_napo
ns_veil
ns_bast

Gimpy_Doodly_Doo · August 2003

If you still do fun maps ns_osmseige is pretty fun, and it's good looking too.

DEADscott · August 2003

I cant find OSMSIEGE, got a link?

venomus · August 2003

I don't think all 1.0x maps are necessarily unplayable with 2.0, at least I tried evolving to onos on a few of them and didn't get stuck. Whether they are balanced is another issue.

If you want funmaps, <a href='http://nsworld.ns-central.co.uk/Map.php?UniqueID=197' target='_blank'>Warshaft 1.2</a> seems to work <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'> . There is just one new bug with the info_locations, but thats not too important on this map. I will probably release a new version soon anyway.

DEADscott · August 2003

Added:

ns_alone
na_phobia_rc3

to our map cycle.

ns_caged
ns_eclipse
ns_thief4
ns_hera
ns_lost
ns_phobia_rc3
ns_nothing
ns_hydrosity
ns_mineshaft
ns_alone
ns_origin
ns_tanith
ns_napo
ns_veil
ns_bast

DEADscott · September 2003

We really need some maps.........please?

The_Real_Quasar · September 2003

Well... ns_senria is still quite a way away from completion, but I'll submit it to your server as soon as I can.
Nothing to see here, move along.

.res file?? Why? I don't want to hijack the thread or be public flamed for my n00bish ignorance so if it's a long answer could you just PM me a clue?

DEADscott · September 2003

Any and all servers will just download the .bsp file of a map to the client. Any other files, .wav, .tga. spr..ect. must have the full path and name included in a .res file so the server knows which files to download to the client for the map.

If your map has a .wav file and a minimap ".spr" included, your .res file would read like this:

sounds/mymap.wav
sprites/minimaps/mymap.spr

Hope this helps as it saves us Server ops alot of time if a .res file is included with multiple file maps.

NOTE: The .bsp should NOT be included in the .res file. If it is, it will force the client to download it twice.

Zazi · September 2003

Widow will be going through it's final preparations this week, and fine tuning/optimizing the week after. When those are complete, I would be more than happy to submit it to your server.

Elite_Guard · September 2003

As a server op, I am ashamed I didn't know this :blush: Thanks for educating me, it's nice to learn something new <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>. I have created a .res file now for the map we just added to our server. NS_Rampage, anyone suggested that one yet?

Mendasp · September 2003

I'll include a .res file for phobia when I finish RC4 (final) <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>
