[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted May 3, 2002 Share Posted May 3, 2002 I have just released my first map, a section of a Star Destroyer, aptly named: The HooD. I figured I would start this thread for you all to give me feedback on it, good or bad. It has support for all gametypes except duel, but CTF and CTY would probably be VERY one sided, I just added support for variety. It has full bot support. The music is Metallica performing the Imperial March... I just sent the file to jediknightii.net, so it may not be put up for a while. I have no web space available, so you will have to wait for them, but it was only a day or 2 after I sent in my DarkRodian skin that they had it up. Anyway let me know what you think, and bear in mind that it is my first map..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugkill Posted May 5, 2002 Share Posted May 5, 2002 raoul, great map!!! one of my top three and thank heavens you took time out to add bot support. i love the way that you have included a slew of models and the large space for surprise attacks and avenues of escape when outnumbered. keep up the good work and please make new maps.

[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted May 6, 2002 Author Share Posted May 6, 2002 Thank you bugkill, I will never release a map without bot support, I consider it not finished.... I will have a new map (possibly 2, a duel and a ffa) out within a week or so, based loosely on an ewok village in the trees. Also, in that map, there are 2 hidden guns, the rocket launcher and the sniper gun... let me know if anyone finds them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yrean Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 ok why would someone put in bot support for a small duel map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugkill Posted May 6, 2002 Share Posted May 6, 2002 download "imperial bridge" or some of the other small duel maps that have no bot support and you will get the point. when all they do is hop all over the place or fall to their deaths, it gets quite annoying and not worth having the map. that is why i've deleted most of those great maps, because they lack bot support. just like raoul replied, a map is not finished without bot support. if it takes time to do, take all the time you need to finish it, but make sure it is done, then release the map. imagine if they released JO without bot support, would you keep it? hell no, and when you make maps or other mods, it should be done to the highest standard possible or don't do it at all. i know guys out there are putting in alot of time in making these mods and i'm not putting them or their work down. it's just that from now on (since making bot wp is well known now) please release maps with bot support or put "no bot support" next to the title. i get tired of downloading a good looking map with no bot support and it's not being said in the readme. please post it next to the title of the map on the download link, so i can have the chance to skip right over it.

[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted May 6, 2002 Author Share Posted May 6, 2002 A lot of people have slower connections, so online play is not an option for them. I figure if I'm going to release a map, it may as well cater to everyone, even dial up users... I mean to put bot support in a duel map takes what, 5 minutes?...

B0rG Posted May 7, 2002 Share Posted May 7, 2002 yrean, why wouldn't you? Duelling with bots isn't too bad if you can't find a fast server, or worse can't find the internet. But more importantly, creating bot support for a duel map would have to be the most painless of bot support work possible. To not do so now that we know how to do it could only be construed as lazy.

D.L. Posted May 7, 2002 Share Posted May 7, 2002 How do you put in bot support!? I have a map near done but I'm not releasing it without bot support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
