hey all

the ever-anticipated Bespin: Armchair Assault map is now available for beta testing!

this map is based primarily off bespin platforms, but tweaked alil, and added stuff to make it cooler.

most importantly, this map is currently the only original usermade map out there, that contains Saturn V's Assault Armchair

anyway, this is only beta, and i still have alot to add, so dont come screaming to me that it sucks and has issues, i know. i'm working on it

but i want your feedback and advice as to how i can make it better.

known bugs:
some of the bots are lazy and take it upon themselves to stand around (which is very annoying!)

bots crash into stuff in the vehicles

occasionally bots will fall off the edges

as of now the bots dont go down to the lower platforms, but im changing/adding stuff so hold tight

bots stand around on the lower platforms

and any other bugs let me know of so i can fix em

things to come:
the couch
more armchairs
more platforms/buildings
fixed ai
minimap
better botroutes
and a secret

anyway, have fun with it, especially the chairs

and please let me know your feedback complaints or input

the link has arrived, party on!

Lol! The couch! Can't wait to try this one out. Must be a rather early bet with such a list of things to come.

if you send it to [email protected] it shall be posted and then reviewed once it leaves beta.

It sounds like a sweet map i hope i get a chance to play this one tonight.

you have a whole living room set flying around hehe.

yeah i already sent it to [email protected]

i just wanted to get it up on the server so ppl could download the beta directly and test it out, saving me having to email every single unfinal version to everyone. and then id just send you the updated versions as they come, and you could replace the old ones, keeping my latest version availale on GT. if thats ok with you

Mmm.. beta map *drools on keyborad shocking self*

Guru, I think we should have a separate beta download link and catagory. I'm mostly recieving these betas with little info telling me their true identity. This delay has been keeping a lot of beta maps from being tested because they are being reviewed and then forwarded. I have reviewed a lot of them just to find out later they are betas, so luckily I haven't posted the reviews. I'll be on later tonight after I finish my assignments and maybe we can figure out a good streamlined model for this solution.

LOL im picky about these things

Posted: **Sun Apr 10, 2005 7:38 pm**

picky picky picky. Worst than me.

It is still in the submit mailbox. I am unable to foward it to Guru because of some technical difficulties with the forward function. Going to try otherways to see if I can get around it.

OK, sent it. Not sure if it worked, but hey, I tried. mail2web, my alternative pop checker incase webmail isn't working, wasn't working properly, so I had to use another web-based pop3 checker to forward it.

Posted: **Sun Apr 10, 2005 11:20 pm**

I'll have it posted tonight after 01:00 hours cst.

sdwhwk can now post files on the site. With full admin powers adding your beta / full map with reviews takes about 25 seconds. I have added a beta area to the downloads

A big 'thumbs up' for this map. Indeed it has some bugs but I haven't been able to find any that you already mentioned.
The armchair as amazing, it's a very small target, it's manouverable and even with the single canon it has a lot of fire power.

Just an idea to make the chair even funnier: Put a TV about 2 meters in front of it so you can watch TV at the same time.

Posted: **Mon Apr 11, 2005 12:04 pm**

Heh, I already thought about having a hand holding a remote as the first person view...

Imp, did ya get the files I mailed ?

Posted: **Mon Apr 11, 2005 12:10 pm**

im checking my mail now

re: tex i know! the armchair is almost impossible to hit cause its soo small, but it's really manuverable and hecka fun to fly!

and one of the things i was(am) trying to do with this map is trying to make it bigger than the original platforms, and more like a bespin map should be: i mean its a whole city in the clouds, not just a couple of platfoms here and there and thats it!

so im trying to make it more complicated with more places to go and more platforms and stuff.

but even with what i have now, iv found that there are lots of places the archairs can go that any other vehicle could NEVER go, darting though little openings and whipping around corners etc.
and it adds a whole new element of flying and fun to the map i think

iv even been able to fly in the little opening in the main cylindrical buildings where you can go up that small walkway to get to the anti-air turrets!

k got it, thanx saturn!!

now to get to work...

Posted: **Mon Apr 11, 2005 12:38 pm**

oh yeah saturn, ya know what would be really funny, along with the TV remote in first person view,
would be to have a bowl of chips sitting on the arm of the couch!

and you could make it so that when the couch takes off, the back of the couch tilts back, and the footrest thingy pops out, and the guys just kick back, enjoy some chips and dip, and chill, while blasting the heck out of ppl

lol

Lol. I'm way too busy with an upcoming project to do any more work on the armchair/couch, but if you guys want to mod it and add models, well BConstructor is out so it's all in your grasp now.

Imp, make sure you use the new armchair model from the zip, the texture looks better. And good luck !

Posted: **Mon Apr 11, 2005 1:06 pm**

yeah i know yur real busy but i thought it would be funny

use new chair, got it.
