PL Rust final1

Sorry to hijack your thread Fr0Z3n, but:

• The colour of the track changes all over the place. Just niggling.

The tracks in ABS's prefab pack and Valve's tracks have both wooden and metal tracks. Is there a way to make them of uniform colour?

Select the track model and open the properties (alt + enter). There is a key called "skin". When the value of this is 0 the tracks will be tinted red, when the value is 1 the tracks will be tinted blue.

He has Red/Blu tracks. I used blu, but when outlineing the track I used red.


It'll be more custom in the end (i hope)

I'll be starting to do custom textures for this soon (weee biggish project)... expect something maybe looking like this:

As a regular follower of UrbEx photo galleries... I'm digging this idea.

 

[Sergis]

you could try putting red forwardspawn in here

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Yea, I was thinking about that area...

I might do that, and then put blu's forward for after cp2 in the yard area right after cp1... Not sure if I want a blu forward for after 2, I'll probably just lower spawn times by 1-2 seconds... red will get a lower spawn time on cap of cp3 and then blu gets a normal one on cap of 3 and they get the forward...

I think that'll work.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

psssst! Hi! How we doin?

I've redone red spawn...

 

[re1wind]

about time. want to test this asap. :3

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Well, prolly wont be til tomorrow (weds) ... I want to add an upper out-of-spawn route for blu. Need to move red spawn, break sightlines, fix some stuff, clip, reseal, move red-forward, realized I sealed already, but have to do it again... etc. etc.

 

[tyler]

Wow, that's way nicer looking.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

And new blu spawn + route + new overhead of map

Good. Blu spawn was the down point of the map simply by how stunningly dull that first area was.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Yea, I'm kind of amazed how much better that area looks... I'm just wondering how it will play.

EDIT: Also for the next release I'm going to displace that area and add some color to it. Should look a hella lot better.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Started to make the second cap point more open whilst breaking sightlines and making things feel more like a factory/steelmill/stuff.


... Now with 200% more barrel stacks.

 

[Tom Hoen]

Noooo, you have removed my favorite sentry and teleporter position What will now happen to my little sentry.

Yesterday when we tested this and blu was about to capture the second last point I felt the map was big. All battles occured casualy and I didn't feel the pressure. Blu couldn't keep the pressure and battles happened near second and third cp. Althought this might be because map isn't familiar to everyone and there weren't many players or I just was blind.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Alright, well, I just had an a6 test of this, and it went pretty well, but it shows that after cp 2 there needs to be a little less metal. The new cp2 area though is playing rather well overall and the spawn times for the final seemed to be pretty good. I'd like maybe 1 or 2 more tests of this, then I'll go to a7, and then probably start the de-urbanization project.


... fallback is pipeline theme.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Hi.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Alright, so a6a had some... issues.

I realized on of the problems was that reds respawn after the base of the hill was capped was was set to 5... So that it why there was an outpouring of red. I have re-adjusted it to 8 (from 9 pre-cap)

I will also add this route after cp 2 is capped (image says 3, I screwed up) thoughts?

 

[LeSwordfish]

I'd make it into a u-shaped corridor or something, cos you had some nice optimisation going on there that's buggered if you just throw a door in. Also, cuts sightlines.

 

[Fruity Snacks]

Where are we talking?

EDIT: Oh wait. Nvm... Yea, I see what you're saying. Good idea. I'll see what I can do.
