Custom map fun tonight

ltmon's picture

At least a few MaD players have the new custom map installed, so it’s game on tonight at 8pm. We’ll start on the IPX server with the custom map and move to a booked GA server I have reserved if there’s any issues.

So:

Make sure you have this map downloaded and installed: http://splashdamage.com/node/312

Cheers t0 all wh0 attended

As MaD showed up 1 by 1 we all awaited the arrival of Tippa & Fuzz_Logic, with n0 F_L in sight 0ur attenti0n turned t0 Tippa wh0 was being c0ached al0ng by Robag 0n h0w t0 apply the new map.
With much waiting the game c0mmenced with0ut Tippa and F_L and thr0ugh 0ut the night we all c0uld see Tippa trying in vain as his name appeared 0n 0ur screens as 0nline. The first match had begun and all were w0ndering if we were Live and in typical IPX Server fashi0n we restarted the Map, I swear HP has that as a bind :)
Mad 0ne the first game and IPX followed with sum wins 0f 0ur 0wn.
The agreed scores by the end was
MaD – 875 Wins
IPX – 876 Wins
A tie maker was called but we all ran 0nt0 a b00ked GA server..
FOR THE RECORD: The GA server was lag x10 compared to the IPX Server…

Cheers t0 all……

custom map fun

Great write up n0mad. Wish I was there, sounds like a lot of fun.

I was a bit "meh"

That map has some potential, but it needs adjustments to make attacking easier. The defensive side simply has too much of an advantage, and spawn to close and too quick. The attacking side has one major spawn point for most of the map (next to the boat), which is completely exposed to snipers, rockets and arty.

A “good” team (i.e. top half of the ladder) could really pretty much hold that map against just about anyone I reckon. Then again, I’d love to be proved wrong :)

im ready for next time...

well i had trouble as you guys know but now i have 11 new maps so i wont be doing that again….
had fun playing on the booked server.

Campaign Custom Maps

Hi All.
Good to see you running these maps.
Had fun the other night and I didn’t mind the reboot really.

Anyway, I have got some good info from all over the place that will help with making a custom campaign.
As soon as I have it all in one place I shall let you have the info and you can put it on your server.
I shall add more maps to the GA servers as we go as well.
Also looking at auto download from the GA repositories so that might help to get things moving.
Some very good maps in there and I am looking forward to getting this reboot item sorted out.

Will keep in touch and will get info to you as soon as I can.
Keep up the good work.
Cheers
Pinge

Padman???

I hqave no idea what Padman is…Google time…:)

Autodownload I have to check on.
I think it is allowed by GA so it should be OK.
I need to talk to the admins to get directions from them on what is.isnt allowed.
There has been a job in from the days of pdart to get custom campaigns on the servers.

They take their time…:)
