Heavy WIP stuff. Map is set in the city of Metz. Still unsure about the whole river situation since swimming feels pretty wonky in DoI.

I don't know if the Source SDK is still necessary for it, but I just downloaded it too.

The Hammer Editor configured for DoI comes with the game in the "steamapps\common\dayofinfamy\bin" directory.

This is so inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

I am glad that the Top 5 are of really good quality! Congratulations to all of the winners, but also to everyone who managed to finish their map within those 3 months! Good job everyone. This is quite an accomplishment!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I hope you know that you are an incredibly evil person.

Subscribed, rated and faved. Where are my skins?!

Great work! Hope you succeed!

I am wondering, will there be a short feedback for every level or will only the winners be announced?

If we can identify that some assets are missing somehow we can release them separately to get this addressed. Again, we're sorry that this issue has occurred.

Do I understand you correctly that we do not need to take immediate steps to fix it since you judge and look at the levels in an older build? I am very limited in time after the crunch time for this contest and do not see myself able to address these issues until next week in order to recook it for the contest.

Thanks.

I just ran around the level and took a few screenshots. Yes, there is stuff broken unfortunately ... I will send you a PM with the screenshots. I don't feel comfortable with making stuff of your map public.

Perhaps I can help you guys out... Tell me about the assets that are giving you trouble, and I will try to upload a file with the old versions of them...

I would appreciate if someone checked that my map is alright, though...

Currently downloading your pak, but it takes ages

I feel your pain ... that is really shitty.

1 hour ago, Sprony said: It's not an engine update. I've asked Epic and they've tested if the maps work and they still do. Some very minor issues on a couple of maps but nothing major. Maybe we'll ask one to recook to see what causes it, but nobody needs to be worried

I noticed that some of the Titan Pass assets were edited. My level does not look the same in some parts ... It also seems like that they either changed the water material's (from Titan Pass) name or deleted it. Therefore my meshes that are supposed to be water, use the default dev texture. This is ugly and since it was said we could use existing assets not really my fault.

But since I already changed some things on the level after the deadline it would not be fair to recook and resubmit it either. What do we do about that?

Wow. You really nailed the Austrian architecture with the buildings in the background. And I love the little detail of adding custom decals for Austrian street signs. And the beer bottles in public places! I feel so home when looking at it. Great work!

Quote from NATO

Just now, NATO said: Looks like I've managed to get it to cook by restarting cooking a shell map and then cooking the final map. I guess it cashe's stuff on the disk and freeing up ram *shrugs*

Thanks for the offer!

Also I REALLY need to get around to getting more than 8GB ram

Glad you could sort it out! Looking forward to seeing your map!

2 minutes ago, NATO said: I'm having a major issue, I can't cook my map currently. It runs out of ram. Not sure what to do. Any advice?

I am still not very familiar with UE4, so the only thing I can offer you is cooking the map for you IF there is a way to share your workingfiles and custom assets in a managable way. And of course if you are willing to.

Does building light work without any problems?

I'd like to thank Epic Games and Mapcore for this contest! I've by far not come as far as I wanted to, but I learned a lot and had plenty of fun!

Since I encountered problems with it and want to avoid bad judgement because of that: What is the correct way to set up the Overcharge entity? In some posts I read one should use "Generic Objective Markers" (which I am not able to find in the content browser. All that although it is possible to choose "Overcharge" in the PowerUp entity. It happened to me tho, that the Overcharge was placed in some random location too. I also read somewhere earlier in this thread that you should not set the map mode to Showdown. Is this still valid? I know there were some updates during the contest.

How did you guys implement the Overcharge?
