Eldritch Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 Or print out the pertinent information, like I did. And Sunburn, there's a sniper rifle in the stage. It's on the tallest tower... when you're on the platform that goes around it, there's a room above it you have to jump to. Inside that room is the sniper rifle.
monsoontide Posted October 17, 2002 Author Posted October 17, 2002 Testers... There will be an update to the main file tonight featuring several tweaks and fixes, another update to the bot routing and also I've taken into account your current feedback (As much as possible so far - I'm still looking into ways to improve framerate). I've made the SAGA objectives more obvious now - There are special objects for each objective that are coloured BLUE and RED and there is also a BLUE or RED light by each. I'm still working on trying to find a way that when you activate the ysalimiri objective that you actually pick up the damn thing - so far I've tried several different methods to no avail! There will be an UPDATE README listing the major changes. Please keep as much feedback coming as possible - I value your imput immensely and if you guys can somehow arrange a suitable time to get together, SunBurn indicates he is able and willing to host a match.
Eldritch Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 So when we get the updated version, I should just switch out the .pk3 file? Do I have to mess with it at all (like last time)? And i'd love to get into a match with the other testers... though i'm unable to connect to the Zone due to my current firewall settings (which i'm working on), if Sunburn gives me the IP address I can just join whenever the match is. -Anakin
monsoontide Posted October 17, 2002 Author Posted October 17, 2002 I will try to make certain everything is included in the PK3. No-one wants to have to mess with the damn things! Just swap out the old one with the new one! Monsoontide
Eldritch Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 By the way, are any of you other testers having problems with the objectives? All of them but one crashed the game each time they were completed.
monsoontide Posted October 17, 2002 Author Posted October 17, 2002 Yes, I've had that problem too! The only solution I've found so far is to add the base.pk3 file that I put on the server to your JK2/base/ folder (where you put the Anchorhead folder). Let me know if this does or doesn't work so I can get this problem fixed. Thx. Monsoontide
Lord_Plo_Koon Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I love the saga thing!! I hope everything works out for this level.

It still froze when I completed any objectives (except the red "Activate the Tractor beam" one). -Anakin
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 Sorry Wes... NOV 1st for you As far Your problem JEDI_Anakin_S, that's something I'll be looking at tonight with the update! It HAS to work from my PK3 alone or it's not worth the hassle! Monsoontide
mariners2001 Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 moonsoon, i'll get that questionaire thingy back to you soon. want to test it up some more before I send it to you. i am, however, experiencing a dramatic error in the Saga mode that crashes my game every time i complete an objective... so that's probably not a good thing. i'll get back to you later. love the map though!
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 Hi All, Yup everyone 'cept me seems to get that crash! Which is why I have some BAD NEWS. The update I had planned to release tonight will have to wait til I get this problem sorted out. (Meanwhile this is a great opportunity to send more more feedback to incorporate!!!) Really need to beat this problem if SAGA mode is going to be viable. Am just in the process of widening the platform with the railings where the skyhopper is located! Monsoontide
Leslie Judge Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I made a very short test for SAGA mode yet, and I didn't encouter that game crash problem on completing an objective.
Eldritch Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 Monsoontide, There's probably a small difference in something between the one objective that works (red, activate tractor beam) and the rest that don't... perhaps look over the one that works and see if it has something the others are missing? -Anakin
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 That's what I figured! Just Investigating that!
Kengo Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I haven't had any problems with the SAGA objectives myself either, but I got the base thing before I played it at al. I'll keep testing the SAGA stuff see if I do get any probs...

I'll keep testing the SAGA stuff see if I do get any probs... I fixed the jkmpinfo file first so that I could play in Saga mode, and it started freezing so I then got the base file but it didn't seem to help. So Kengo, when you complete any of the Saga objectives it doesn't crash you?
Kengo Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 I haven't had that, although there were one or two objectives I didn't find, I'll go through the lot and see
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 I'm also just testing a very simple and primitive way of lisitng the objectives whenever you spawn - until there is a SAGA mod update.
Kengo Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 Originally posted by monsoontide I'm also just testing a very simple and primitive way of lisitng the objectives whenever you spawn - until there is a SAGA mod update. Great idea, would make life a lot easier for people who've just started playing the map
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 AH HA! Located the problem with the objectives crashing the game. (Let's just put it down to my totally coroded coding skills - when you triggered the objectives, the objectives triggered themselves again, causing the crash). Also the objective message works (But it will show up in all team modes unfortunately) and it only lasts a moment - but at least there is something now! Monsoontide
Eldritch Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 Most excellent! When can I expect the new beta version? Hopefully in about 15 hours or so, eh? Or maybe sooner? -Anakin
monsoontide Posted October 18, 2002 Author Posted October 18, 2002 Yup! Just a few more tweaks to make then in about 15 hours or so I should be able to upload the UPDATE! Monsoontide
Lord_Plo_Koon Posted October 19, 2002 Posted October 19, 2002 How soon can we expect this map to be downloadable to the public?
