pretty cool map.
hint: fix the -mp values

Screenshots:

not bad, dude
can you use drawinfo (or something similar) to make the green disc (and possibly the red handles) move around?

AKA "Capture the Pearl". more ships will be added later (it's almost 6 in the morning, took me all night to make this one, so yeah, later lol)

couple more changes

what's next? 100 secrets

interesting... it worked fine on my private test server. let me get into the code once again...
EDIT: new and improved version done

thanks, apple!
will you (or did you) try hosting the fixed version yet? is it working ok?

dude, mud, getting your map hosted is not as simple as mrapple made it seem, so unless it is a technical problem (too slow, too laggy, or something like that) you should be thankfull that he agreed so quickly to host your map(s).

the idea of combination flags is kinda scray. noone wants to be on a map with WG+GM or CL+ST. yet something like O+WG, or NJ+OO (good+bad, not just good+good or bad+bad) will be ok.
but that is just a personal oppinion.

a variation of the idea: specific super flags spawn on a base (rogue base maybe). when that base is captured, it turns the team color and only players from that team can get flags from there. there is only one problem: it might be hard to implement the flag-to-team idea since it should either be a d...

Bambi, you don't really have to do that. i never do, anyway.

got 2 ways of doing this. first: when your are in bzedit (before all the textures and physics are added), select the "drivethrough" option. add textures later. OR open the .bzw file in your favorite text editor, and add "drivethrough" after the "size" Example box positi...

Mud, you need to use "diffuse" function. basically material name clear diffuse 0 0 0 0 end box position 0 0 0 size 10 10 10 matref clear end will give you a complitly transparent box. use values betveen 0 and 1 to change the transparency of the object. change all 4 numbers to the same valu...

from what i understand, jack, you want a missle that explodes into a shockwave. like the guys said, that idea was rejected many many times. not that it is a bad idea, but BZFlag does not actually track the shots, so the program can't tell where the missle will explode, and so it can not know where t...

i had few screenies laying around, so i combined them. here is the result:

fixed teles

hehe thanks, and by the way, you CAN jump up on the walls in this map (vs my bz-ufc, where you could not)

are you talking about spawning reds in red corner and blues in blue corner since there are only 2 teams?

2 vs 2
jumping
rico
3 shots
2-second reload
shots DO keepvertical velocity

WOW!

http://chud.com/nextraimages/DukesFive5.jpg is the idea... but since i SUCK ( j/k ), the result is not too great (see attachment)

the idea is for this to be a part of a dirt track type map

... or get volunteers to help you out. i'll help

sure, i can help
