The Frontline! Community Project - 1.2 IS LIVE!

[Pocket]

Oh hey. I found a bug in some of the material files; all of the blendbeachgrasstocobble ones have the two surfaceprops listed as dirt and grass, respectively, instead of grass and stone or whatever. I thought something was off about the footstep sounds when I played that one 72 hour entry the other day. And the blendgroundtocobble just has one surfaceprop. Might want to look over all of your blends and make sure your ducks are in a row before the next update.

For some reason in SFM tree leaves look white if I stand close enough:

I had the same issue when trying to make something for the jam. You're not alone.

Cutting it close there, aren't you? =P

Joking aside, I don't mind at all if you use the name, just want to make sure you're aware of it.

jesus Christ I am beyond sorry
spending weeks on a map just for some 13 year old twap to come and steal it
I am FULLY willing to change the name to avoid any confusion.
I honestly came up with the idea like 2 months ago for a 3 cp map gave up then with the frontline project content pack being released jumped blindly into action.
SERIOUSLY I am extremely willing to change the name.
The name of the plant is OMEGA-B so I can call it cp_omega

Haha don't worry about it. You're using CP and I used KOTH, so there shouldn't be any issues with the download system. Feel free to keep the name.

koth_collider was my first "real" map anyways, and the layout is, well... completely awful. I'm not particularly proud of it. So again, don't feel bad about reusing the name!

Well, I guess it's time to post my frontline map here, after i posted some screens of the outdated variant on facepunch and then forgot about it.

I show you Koht_Iglesia, a map that revolves around a church in a fancy maritime city (that has still to be hit by the bloody misterious war).

Based on the marittime pack originaly, as soon the frontline project was announced (and it's content pack relased), I decided to make the map ready for the project.
So far i got to add more destruction to the buildings and way, way more details; probably change the map outline a little, and also change the placeholder windows based on a CSS texture pack.

Stay tuned in for more!

So, my map so far is in progress, but i am going to have to work on it before i go back to school.

anyone else having issues with packing window_001?
I literally spent 20 minutes scanning my entire hardrive for it with no success

It's hiding in a little known place called tf/tf2_misc_dir.vpk and tf/tf2_materials_dir.vpk. If you absolutely have to pack it into your map despite the implications, you'll have to extract it from those two places first.

Is it not part of frontline even though it says so

I'm going to be Classic Contrarian Lain™ again and say that you definitely should have playtested this on our servers before going ahead and detailing it, because while the detailing looks great the gameplay looks poor. It was the same deal with koth_oakvale and the creator has had to completely restart that map from the ground up. This game is actually one of the most difficult to make a layout for, considering along with the usual timings and defense positions you have many class mechanics to worry about and height disadvantage plays a massive part in gameplay. Mainly right now the map looks very flat, which makes quite a few classes pretty unapproachable. Heavy has a very easy time locking ground down without a height disadvantage, and a half decent Scout with destroy everything.

Sunshine shared some in-development assets with Frontline, hence the file structure.
