Hey guys i play on your server regulary as u probably know, along with
[MM] Killkrazy [UK] and [MM] Deadman [UK]

I have just finished my latest map for CS:S and i would love it if u could put it onto your server please :)

Please check it out here http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=266860

Thanks, Maddogjez...

[PK|ReUsed]

ill check out the map myself atm (downloading, 30%). but the screenshots looks pretty damn nice..... but what about [MM] Psycho [UK]??. ;0

[PK|ReUsed]

I've checked out the map and it looks pretty cool. I also discorvered some interesting glitches in the source engine.... Smoke grenades work underwater... flashbangs dont affect people underwater whether its thrown in the water or not, but affects people out of the water when thrown in...

back to the main topic, the sounds in the map are really neat. the only 1 thing i dont understand about the map is why you put the blue plastic barrels next to the water, but torment anyone by seperating them from the water with a fence!. how cruel! :(

[Melonhead]

Screenies look really cool mate, good job!

hehe,, sweet, cheers,,, umm i could always remove the fence if i make an update to the map,, but u can still jump over it hehe,,,, :) It would probably be there in a real life situation,, but if u think it would make that area more fun then i could try it without. maybe..

Regards, jez..

[PK|ReUsed]

If you make an update of the map, you could put a split in the fence so there space to shoot blue barrels through :D

[Maddogjez]

Yeh that will be cool.. :D

So do u think u will get this map on ya server? 8)

[PK|ReUsed]

sorry man ;P. it's not my server. im not even admin! ;P. but i think it's better than someof the other custom maps we have. way better than siege.

[PK|Deep Blue]

I will be looking at it tonight, thanks jez :)

Im happy to go on reused recommendations to be honest!

Always happy to help release maps - need web hosting? :)

[PK|Hexx]

sorry man ;P. it's not my server. im not even admin! ;P. but i think it's better than someof the other custom maps we have. way better than siege.

Meanie - least siege is an accurate copy of the original

i have yet to download the map, on 56k modem too so i hope it aint too big#

[Anonymous]

Screenshots look cool, but I can't be assed downloading the map yet. one thing that drew my eye though...double height vents. I'm not really a fan cause the texture looks wrong.

hehe,, it might go a bit slow on 56k because my host is rather slow,, i think it was around an 8mb zip file,, inside that, the map extracts to about 18mb :)

[PK|Hexx]

naw it should be ok :D, 8mb is about 1 hour and 21 min download

[PK|Colonel Ames]

[PK|Deep Blue]

We like it, i think the clan concensus is that it's far too hard to protect the bomb points, and playing with a c4timer of 35 seconds, its very hard to get form A to B vice versa to defuse, even with a kit

:)

Wont stop me playing it or having it on the server though!

[Jenni]

yeah it was quite good, if a little big and the bombsite weren't very easy to find (i couldnt see and red target thingy) but apart from that, good!

[PK|Colonel Ames]

I can't wait to try this out now.

[PK|Cerro]

Yeah its a good map - although the corridors being abit wide and open and as dex said "bomb sites are too far apart". Not sure about the T's vent, its abit useless but its an alternative.

Defending the sites isn't that bad, both CTs and Ts have to defend them at somepoint but the distance is always abit of a problem! Its looking good so far - might suggest a ladder or something to get out of that water, i couldn't find a way out of it lol.

[PK|Deep Blue]

Problem is, if you increase the C4 timer, then it makes it harder for the terrorists, however at th emoment, from the server stats as you can see, the CT's get slaughtered!

[PK|Colonel Ames]

Only because we has a tendency to go PK vs ALL and we as Ts

[Maddogjez]

Cool, cheers people :lol: ,, Ye i know what u meen about the bomb sites being a bit far apart, especially if u go the lOng way around to the t spawn point. You can get out of the water at each side if u swim towards the rocks but i should make it more obvious i guess. I could make an update to the map if u think its worth it, but im never keen on doing updates because its a hassle for people to download it again hehe, but i will if u guys want me to.

I really wanna play it with people because i only have 56k at the moment so i cant play:( , i will be back at uni in a week or 2 where i have broadband so we will have to play it then hehe. :)

I downloaded it last night...took me 28secs from our hosting here...pretty swift.

Hehe, sweet. :lol:

[PK|Deep Blue]

Yeah. a few tweaks would be good, i seriously think you have the "va-va-voom" as my colleagues over at invasionworks had with DOD, since we're on our own project now the HL mapping has stopped, but its something i'd really like to get into, besides admin jobs, but oh well :)

Im sure to find some time somewhere :)


Edit: If you want hosting like mine, i can do deals from £5 a month :)

why not? it doesn't stop me, im a regular 56k cs:s gamer, only limitation is my computer atm, as for some reason ive sorted it but now my mouse doesnt work at all, and no internet, its one thing after another

maybe complete format and reinstall is in order

omfg omfg omfg omfg omfg noooooooooooooooooo

[Anonymous]

Go for it...I'm planning on a format soon...very soon. In fact I've just got to "legitimatly purchase" Windows 64bit, and I'll get straight to it.

[PK|Colonel Ames]

Im not sure i like it....... mind u i was playing with only 6 people on the server. it would prob need about 10 on each team to get interresting.

[Anonymous]

Ok, I've formatted (like I said I would). And I'm now running xp x64 edition.
Only real difference is 2 versions of internet explorer, and drivers are harder to come by. Hence my CS:S is only running between 30-60fps most the time...so basicly I'm much worse now. I need the softmodding but I dunno how to set it up in 64 bit.

[Maddogjez]

Cool, fair enuf,, Yes it would be a lot better with more people,, A couple of my clan mates told me that they could not download it through cs:s when the level changed,, so im not sure if anyone will be able to, which would lead to less people playin on it i guess.

[Sorrow]

mate, if u want this to be a populer map, change the parts already metioned,... good job tho, just has niggly little flaws

Remember the vents!! (also again with the vents sometimes they're a little "sticky" when you drop down a bit) Not the most descriptive thing but you should be able to work out roughly what I ment.

[PK|Colonel Ames]

Descriptive as usual Moj :lol:

[PK|Hexx]

i played redheat, i must ask, is this your first full map build?

because the detail is pretty damn good for a first go, everything seems to be ok, smooth all over, i managed to get out of the water, theres a little bit of a distance between bombsites but its makeable as long as you have a defuse kit, etc

Its not the first full map i have made. I made these 2 maps here http://www.logicalchaos.mine.nu/Half-Life/de_nostromo/de_nostromo_v2.htm

for cs 1.6,, they are based off the film Alien. they are good, check um out if you have cs 1.6

de_redheat is the first full map i have made for CS:S

[PK|Hexx]

:idea: cool, well it works well, may i suggest some, light switches or door switches, just too add a tactical edge to the map.

and shootable power cables, everyone loves shootable power cables


zzzaaaapp
:twisted:

[Anonymous]

Shootable power cables are cool...oh and so are axes (although they probably would make much sense in this map). And have you considered an underwater passage, going straight to a cool bunker or something, then you'll have people asking "how'd he get there, I wish I knew so I would do as well as mojo...oh no he shot me again, man down, man down...Gotta love his skillz..urghh..."

P.S This only works if you make it uber secret and only tell me where the switch is (do we have a deal?)

Lol,, maybe :roll: I might just make an underwater passage somewhere, but one that will act as a nice conflict zone or suming heh.

[Maddogjez]

Ok, i am going to make an update soon, i have figured out what needs doing, and it should play a lot better.

Cheers,.

[Maddogjez]

Ok, i have updated de_redheat. it should play a lot better now. if there is any chance of getting it onto your server then that would be great thanks.

Could u please update your version of the map on peacekeepers site, so people will download the correct version.
