pl_hoodoo [Final release]

[flubber]

The same here, it's really rare that people are leaving the server for a download even a 40Mo one. I'd rather have cients who accept download to play on great maps than a orange server with 3 Mo maps.

I, uh, think that I have played this map before. Like, several times. It's on the server I usually play on (The FISH [TF2 Pl maps] I believe) but I'm pretty terrible at associating map names with the maps themselves. I will comment as soon as I see it again.

It exists now, feel free to add stuff as you see fit.

Also, I found this whilst using photoshop...uh.... I mean, searching the web:

:O

 

[joshman]

Looks Amazing! You're good at photoshop... er... i mean searching the webs.

 

[Dox]

do you have a final version out yet? I suggested your latest beta to a server I play on and they liked it, but a final would be awesome, and i dont think Valve accepts Betas

 

[laghlagh]

Heres some things I noticed, I can't be arsed to wade through 34 pages of constructive critisism, so they may have been commented on before.

Yeah, BTW theres a lot of servers playing this now, so congratulations Youme!

 

[YM]

Not as many as pl_dustbowl or dbheights though, I'd at least like to overtake those barstadised maps.

 

[DarkNoghri]

I keep bugging one of the higherups in my clan to put this on our server, but he hasn't done it yet.

 

[flubber]

After a test hoodoo was in three of our servers, the next day after it get out .

 

[Earl]

I ran around this map for the first time and my first thoguht was:

Needs more Hoodoos! There's only half a dozen in the whole map and they're tiny. If they're only skybox decorations, that's fine, but it'd be cool to see them in the playing area.

Also, it'd be cool if you incorporated the intro to this song somehow into the map, it fits it perfectly:

I second the motion. More Hoodoos!

Oh come on theres plenty of hoodoos, theres nearly three dozen in all, but if more's what you want I guess I could fit a few more in...

And suffer yet MORE complaints from impatient server owners/players about its filesize....
As far as I'm concerned anyone who can't be bothered to spend a few moments to download something I've spent over 800 hours making they can go, well, I'll let you use your imagination as to what they should do.

Has anyone been playing the final stage? I'm thinking of making it far harder for teams to get on the wrong side of the cart, this should improve balance a bit (not that the last stage feels unbalanced) but it should also make the last stage feel much more substanical.

 

[YM]

We have been trying to play this on my server for a while. (Beta 2)
I don't think stage 2 is winnable. We've had a few rounds where people are up against the cart, the cart is all the way in the shed, but no one wins.

I've played hundreds of games on hoodoo, over many many different servers, I've never once seen this happen, I can only assume the red team are able to stand next to the shed preventing the blu team from pushing the cart all the way in. (all the way in means the door is closed again, if the door hasn't closed you've not pushed it far enough)

 

[terrorist_hell]

I happend twice when I played it. The cart was pushed in the shed, and the 'cart meter' went all the way back to the start, and it stayed there untill you pushed it again. Seems like some kind of bug, don't know for sure. Usually it works and you can see, if you look good enough, that the meter goes to the beginning very fast and the round is over and won by BLU.

Do you do something different compared to Valve maps? Cause in goldrush of badwater I don't see the 'cart meter' run very quicly to the beginning if BLU wins. It just locks the last cappoint, it turns to BU and the round is over. But yours is different.

Finished the prop Youme, if you don't like the colour scheme tell me, or you can play with it too. Pm me to send over the files but I still have to get the export stuff (I formatted a week ago)

 

[Shadow Scythe]

something I've spent over 800 hours making

This explains the quality of your works. :blink:

 

[YM]

Well I've added in that prop, nearly doubled the number of hoodoos and done some balancing work over all stages, i'll take a look into the ending of the second stage, no idea what could be causing such problems.
