BioPulse Posted October 9, 2007 Report Posted October 9, 2007 I downloaded it and is even better than in the screenshots. I love the river and those flying insects among other things. However CS:S is about a completely different gameplay. This map in a game like America's Army or similar would rock in popularity, no doubt. I thin kit's nice that he made it a new refreshing kind of gameplay instead of all maps being the same idea in a different theme / layout. I'm interested to see what maybe a mix or gather on this map wouldd amount to
citric Posted October 9, 2007 Report Posted October 9, 2007 Played the map and it looks really great. Only thing that bothers me is that the lods change so much on the rocks, when they are just a few meters infront of you. And some of the rocks are blue.
e-freak Posted October 9, 2007 Report Posted October 9, 2007 Awesome map - i posted it up on HLPortal so it should get some nice resonannce here in germany (and austria and swiss)
Grin Posted October 9, 2007 Report Posted October 9, 2007 It really looks good. But it's not a very good CS map when you think of playability. It's almost impossible to run from one bombsite to another and defuse, if somebody really tries to stop you you have no chance. But now that we know that you can do such "real" forests with source.. How about a decent vietnam mod? :wink:

You have to extend the C4 Timer. With Mani Admin, you can even create a specific CFG file to only extend the C4 timer for this map only.
Grin Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 We tested this with 60 seconds on the timer, which was hardly enough. And that's almost twice the standard time of any league that I know of.
robert.briscoe Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Posted October 10, 2007 any server admin can easily change the c4 timer, in fact by default I created an entity which set the timer to 60. As has been mentioned you can also make a custom cfg for the map too. The "SOLID_VPHYSICS static prop with no vphysics model! (models/pinetrees/branch_002a_small.mdl) " is simply a warning, not an error and should not cause any problems. I cannot solve this my end it just seems to be the way Source works atm.

-Stratesiz- Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 My first impression was... wow! That is fantastic work!

It is not the best idea to make this for CSS but CSS frankly has the most players of any Source game and the map is more likely to get played. Congrats Rob, you did done good and it looks really nice, a great portfolio piece tbh.
Skjalg Posted October 17, 2007 Report Posted October 17, 2007 lol Rick_D, you are usually the first one to nitpick everything. But I guess you always just have to go the other way
Grinwhrl Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 nitpicking about nitpicking hehe had to jump in and say that one.
