This si probably as detailed as it will get. No static meshes everywhere to get stuck in:

that is fucking brilliant :icon14:

Indeed! It looks great man! :icon14:

I hope yours becomes the de facto version of the map for Q4.

Thanks guys.

I doubt it will, but it should provide at least a little bit of entertainment until the ubderdm6 comes along.

Tested it around with mp physics ? I can hear the bitching if bridge to rail isn't as easy as in q3 already

(si_pure 0 si_map whatever spawnserver)

If already made the def files so it loads in MP

Anyways, yeah I checked and it seems like it should work. Its the exact same scale as Quake 3, I could make it bigger if needs be. Anyways, the point is its not my problem REALLY its the physics, however I will do anything anybody suggests.

plzzz o'dium put the red armor and the rest of the weapons in the same place they had them in the pro version if you can.

Make a 6++!

I didn't think I'd like to see older maps ported, simply because ported maps mean the q3 teams/players have the advantage over the new guys... but wow that looks fantastic. Now how about you drop the dm6 and port a real map for TDM usage... like q3dm14

I believe he did mention that he was doing pro version item placement.

dm14...? hmmm Not one of my personal favs. I am all for a Q4 Overkill though. :icon14:

Only if the map is compiled with q3map2. The original q3map doesn't strip the light entities.

good work odium, nice one

remember... KISS

keep it simple stupid

too much eye candy and it's unplayable online

You could release all the alternative item placements in one go in a single .pk4 file. It might make the file quite big, but it would enhance the file's appeal (noone can bitch about item placement), ease adoption, wouldn't take any longer to make, plus the server would then have all versions!

Post by **o'dium** » Sun Oct 23, 2005 6:54 pm

Or, just make odq3dm6 and then odq3dm6pro

I wonder if 6++ will be ported to q4, as well as overkill, uberkill, etc. How whats the max number of players in q4 anyway?

Post by **Foo** » Sun Oct 23, 2005 6:57 pm

Then you're diluting the release. In effect, lessening the chances of getting a version popular by releasing a competitor yourself.

If they're in the same .pk4 and you release that one file with both item layouts in it, then there's no debate. One file to rule them all, or some shit.

and its really not all that much trouble

Woa, steady on, i'll do whatever you guys want me to do, its not for me anyways!

2 in the same file is ok by me, i dont care it could be 30 as long as it has the layout you want.
