Almost 6 years... and was a pack that everybody loves it!

What about a turtle map event for this theme?

During the February month? Or the hole march?

Anyone ?

I would really REALLY love to release the pack at the 1st of April. It would fit perfectly into my secret masterplan for that particular day.

Hmm

if nobody's wanna make the start map, i'll make it

I said Hmm dammit! Start map is still mine...

Although, yeh, I could do with knowing how many maps there're going to be. Can support up to 4 straight up atm, with easy addition of another 4. If there's more than 8 I'll have to expand it, but I can't see that happening...

Hmm

JPL: I made the skybox from this Hubble image: http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2007/16/image/a/

Nyort: Thanks! Yeah, I like the "absurd" theme.

I Take It That Skyboxes Are Allowed Then :)

I wouldnt mind using one on my map.

Spirit: I dread to think what the masterplan is!

My intention is to get all of the content, put it in a zip with the file structure etc, email nonentity, tell him how many maps there are and what they are called so he can complete the start map, wait for the start map, put it into the zip file and then send the whole thing to Spirit for a readme.

nonentity: What say you to this sketchy plan? Also I think there will be more than four maps, so the eight-start version should perhaps be prepared for now..... ?

Oh And Trinca:

#256 posted by RickyT33 on 2009/03/23 01:04:56

er... maybe make the exit target start.bsp?

#257 posted by Trinca on 2009/03/23 01:13:22

coagstr.bsp?

Nice resource there.

Trinca

#259 posted by RickyT33 on 2009/03/23 04:15:43

no just start.bsp

Im guessing the coagula3 pak will be run in its own gamedir. So you'll have to extract the zip to quake\coagula3, and run quake with the command line "-game coagula3".

And then you will be able to start the pack from the Quake menu! :D

Or am I wrong...... ?

Uhm

Why not send it to Spirit right away then?

There's no need for an individual folder if the start map uses the backpack.touch hack than mentioned (=keep it simple/id). But even if you insist on releasing it as a mod, please don't put the files in a pak.

Nice image, and good work :) Is there any tutorials that would explain how to create skyboxes from such images ?

#262 posted by Trinca on 2009/03/23 10:15:26

ok, we will sent then to Spirit untill end of 31th March.

now how should we name the map?

tr_coag3.bsp?
spy_coag3.bsp?
neg_coag3.bsp?

I'd Say

#263 posted by Spirit on 2009/03/23 10:25:27

coag3_trinca.bsp, coag3_dude, coag3_start

That trick looks great, yay!

#264 posted by Trinca on 2009/03/23 10:28:15

OK, Thats Cool By Me!

#265 posted by RickyT33 on 2009/03/23 10:44:28

so mine will be called coag3_ricky.bsp, and the exit will target coag3_start.bsp, and I'm sending it to the long-suffering Spirit on March 30th :)

Probably with a skybox :D

#266 posted by spy on 2009/03/23 11:04:47

coag3_trinca.bsp, coag3_dude, coag3_start
That trick looks great, yay!

is this necessary to name the map that way?

#267 posted by Trinca on 2009/03/23 11:06:56

spy i also think that make things simpler

Spy

#268 posted by Spirit on 2009/03/23 11:09:59

Nah, but I strongly recommend it. That way people can easily choose a map from the pack by tab-completion (on engines with that). Just "coag3<tab>, yay".

i just wish i had time to made a map with more layout :\ maby next time...

Hmm

#271 posted by nonentity on 2009/03/23 15:47:04

email nonentity, tell him how many maps there are and what they are called so he can complete the start map

As long as that's done by someone, I'm not fussed who they're sent to...
