Wait, you're doing that betting thing I brought up?
1st paragraph: Sweet! Does this mean I get credit (lol, jk. I could care less)RepSharpshooter wrote:Yes betting system.
Fragme and I were talking, and he figured out if you made an object a droid class, you could push it around. This means you could play volleyball with forcepush, or soccer/polo with tanks.
I'm going to see if I can add something like that somewhere
RepSharpshooter wrote:This adds hunt mode to battle arena. Sounds boring (lol)? Well this is also a sort of clan map, but unlike other clan maps, this does not suck. In fact, it is anything but sucky:
Gamer's lounge. You can see fragme here on tv (pun). The tv is a funny picture gallery that scrolls by. You can sit in the sofas and look around (or watch tv).
Booth seats are in the corners of the room. They seat 5 people, and you can also look around while sitting in them. This makes a good setting for talks about strategy and such.
The heart of the mode is the battle system. You can see here the 2 team portals and the reset button. Also in the far left you can see a bit of the remote camera system.
The actual arena. It is full of Egyptian-like obstacles. The arena is very challenging to play in, as there are so many obstacles to hide behind.
A summery of the system is:
1) You enter either team1 or team2 pods to register on a team.
2) You are teleported to a holding area, while a 30 second countdown timer allows more people to register.
3) When the timer elapses, you will be released and the battle commences.
4) Whichever team wins will get 12 points (every member will).
5) The system is reset, allowing for more matches to take place.
Another note, if you kill someone in the lobby (and you are not registered in a battle) you will be sent to jail for 30 seconds.
I plan on copy-and-pasting this into DMI, it has helped me to work out a lot of bugs, such as the sofas and booth seats. This map is about 99% done, I just need to test online again, to iron out some odd jail bugs. I figured it would be a waste to only release to LH or MX, so I decided to make a wip.
EDIT: Also, my hoth king of the hill map is so small that I just decided to make a map pack.
Hoth King of the Hill
Summary:
This is just a hill in the middle of no where. The modes of this map focus on controlling the hill. In GCW era, you play as all wampas. In CW era, you are jedi only.
readme:
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE THE MODES ON THE MAP SELECTION SCREEN UNLESS: you run HKH_install_shell.bat located in C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData (or whatever your install path may be).
However, when Zerted completes his SWBF2v1.3 mod (and you get it), this step will NOT BE NEEDED.
---------------------------------------
--={Before you play}=--
This is a MULTIPLAYER ONLY map. There are no ai. If you make a server:
Must be set:
-teams = player select
-friendly fire = on
Optional:
-CTF limit = 3
-{adjust conquest, hunt, and CTF timers according to how long you want to play}
---------------------------------------
Below is the list of modes and eras:
-{DeathMatch Mode}-
Free for all, no teams. Ignore any red or blue icons, you get 2 points for every kill (kills may say negataive though).
Tech notes: uses conquest timer.
-{King of the Hill Mode}-
In this mode, your team must capture a CP at the top of the hill. Remember this is a team mode, so don't TK (you will lose points).
Tech notes: uses CTF score and time limit
-{Control Mode}-
A ring will appear at the top of the hill. When you "control" this ring, you will start to gain points. There is no points for killing, only for maintaining control of the ring. Blue indicates that the player is being given points.
Tech notes: uses Hunt score and time limit (note that hunt has a default time limit of 5 minutes)
