Twin Towers, By Da Best

[Da Best]

Here is a map I've been working on lately, please post your comments, feel free to add stuff and upload it again for other testers, i was wondering if i should upload it in the form of TXT or .ibze, anyway ill do em both

*THIS IS NOT COMPLETE* constructive criticism only

This is a CTF style map

[dango]

upload it in .bzw so we can all use it.

[joevano]

Just change the file extension me1. A 'bzw' file is just a plain text file after all, with a 'bzw' file extension.

[ducktape]

could you post some pics?

[macsforme]

This forum limits the file extensions you can upload, and that's why .ibe or whatever didn't work. Rename it to .bzw, and it should be fine.

[Da Best]

OK, let me get some pics, Gotta figure out how to take a screenie on a mac BTW to use the map, rename the extension from .txt to .bzw It should be fine.

You can use grab, a screen-capture thing. It isn't very pretty, but It'll do, i guess.

[Da Best]

i figured it out lol, you type command shift three hee hee

[Zelgadis]

[meeba]

ill get some, hold on

ok here #1 line of pyramids
#2 steps
#3 something weird?

[ducatiwannabe]

Love the pyramids. Reminds me of a style I tried in a few of my maps.

I also really like the small blocks leading up to the big one you can sit atop. My very first map had a similar concept.

Good job! Very simple, but not bad.

[Da Best]

Yea, I have to figure out how to link the teleporters to the top box, (there is a box up there) it has a zone for most of the good flags, The box with steps has a WG zone by it So you could get all the other *Very* good flag boxes. You CAN get through the pyramids without a flag, You just have to be lined up straight, Thanx for the pics anti-spam I'll make some improvements to it and I'll submit it again for more ideas.

[Da Best]

Also, I designed the world around a 210 world size, I could Redesign it to fit 400, but i'll do that later =)

[Davy Jones]

I have made some *little changes to your map*

Here they are

They fix: You could not get to bases because you cannont jump from pyramids forwards or backwards, only turning, you might want to redesign your map or use my little improvement.

Heres some options to use when testing

Ok, Da Best has given me full permission to work on this map. It is having a little trouble with zones. Is that serverside? or mapside. if is mapside, please download the above and tell me what's wrong.
these are some of my typical zones

Code: Select all

zone
name GM Zone
position 200.0000 200.0000 50.0000
size 10.0000 10.0000 10.0000
rot 0.0000
flag GM
end

zone
name L Zone
position -200.0000 200.0000 16.5000
size 20.0000 20.0000 10.0000
rot 0.0000
flag L
end

zone
name Top Box All Zone
position 50.0000 0.0000 205.0000
size 50.0000 50.0000 15.0000
rot 0.0000
flag A BU CL F IB ID JP L MG MQ N OO PZ QT R SB SE SH SR ST T TH US V good
end

zone
name Red Spawn Zone
position -200.0000 0.0000 100.0000
size 10.0000 10.0000 10.0000
rot 0.0000
team 1
flag
end

zone
name Green Spawn Zone
position 200.0000 0.0000 100.0000
size 10.0000 10.0000 10.0000
rot 0.0000
team 2
flag
end

I'm pretty sure these are correct. Please tell me the serverside plugin or option i need to use to use the zones.
