Any help?

TomTom on "[MAP RELEASE] - Impasse and Outland"

TomTom — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 14:23:54 +0000

Hello, this is my first official release of two maps I call Impasse and Outland. They're both heavily terrain oriented and good for those looking for a slightly narrowed down map. Below are some features and a description of both maps. Oh and thank you to everyone who helped me playtest these over the past week!

Impasse: An island with two large vertical mountains with a pass in between. The top of the mountains make for great sniping venues, while the center pass can be easily littered with mountainside bunkers. The game tends to lead to a hectic bunker based sniping battle pushing back and forth between the bases on the top of the mountain.

http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/3841/impasse1.png

Outland: This map also has a center point focusing the gameplay. It consists of a large lake in a valley, surrounded by mountains. There is a large center spire coming off of the surrounding mountains that leads into the middle of the gateway between the bases. Gameplay typically involves lots of building from walls to close off the gateway to towers that have vantage points over oncoming troops.

Exile on "FarEastIslands [MAP]"

Exile — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 07:03:14 +0000

The mountains sweep into each other far too much, and the heightmap is crazy.
But i look at what maps are so popular these days and figure "aw what the hell, post it."
Credit to Tegu on IRC for finding me the app that generated the world textures and the heightmap.

The map is entirely experimental and not at all intended for you people to play seriously i think. (its worth a laugh though i imagine.)

TomTom on "Custom Map Directory"

TomTom — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 16:37:11 +0000

This may be taboo but I'm going to post this in here as well as support... So I've doubly searched the forums and I was just wondering if there was a custom map directory. If not then that would be an awesome tool for the forums. Sure there are a few collections here and there, but that leaves a lot of smaller maps that go unnoticed for one odd reason or another. Maybe just a post (like this) with as many links as people can find to custom maps with (hopefully) a name and author.

Violent Potato on "How to make a map?"

Violent Potato — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 04:57:32 +0000

Okay so I was planning to start a server but I need a map for that. I would like to make my own personal map and not use the vanilla one. I read from another thread that to make map I could use something like paint or gimp and after that some bitmap converter. Then slab6 and voxed.. But as I can't find any bitmap converters that could convert other files to bitmap and not other way around I need:

1. A good bitmap converter and more information of way like this to make maps.
------------------------------------- OR -------------------------------------
2. Other way to make maps (I wish it was simple cuz I'm not very skillful voxed user).

Ps. I'm not gonna first make the server and then go there and change the whole server one block at time to change it from vanilla to custom.

1337101 on "What's with the Hallways?"

1337101 — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 14:33:46 +0000

How come whenever I come online, half of the servers that have a low ping for me are running the Hallway map? It's not that great a map, all-in-all, and I, for one, hope it goes the way of Bridge Wars.

The biggest problem is the levels of danger relative to your position. Your own spawn is the most dangerous place for you to be, but camping over the enemy spawn is extremely safe (I once ended a 35-kill streak sniping because I got bored). On a vanilla map, things tend to gradually get more dangerous as you advance (although the back of enemy spawn is usually less dangerous than the middle of the map), and that makes for better combat mechanics.

So why does everyone else seem to like Hallway?

Remember that this map is a work-in-progress so there may be bugs and its not quite finished.

This map has a giant 3d grid spaning the whole map with a bridge running through it between two bases for each team. Also its made for Bridge Wars.

PLEASE NOTE: This is the prototype build. It has a lot of problems(repetitive buildings, unfinished areas, few/no landmarks, poor aesthetics) which mostly come down to me wanting to see some playtesting time before I commit to the 20+ hours it would take to make a super-refined version of the map.

ALSO(Server Operator's Note): Because there's so much detail in the map it's considerably larger than most AoS maps(over 4mb in this build, vs. 2mb for vanilla maps). Watch out!

You are welcome to download and run this map, and to make mods. Please leave my signature in if you mod it!

This was a map I made fairly quickly in voxed, but I think it would have great gameplay value! The aesthetics arent't the best, but they're decent, and that picture I took from a bad angle; the caves aren't just those big tunnels, they're scattered throughout the hill in 4x4 shafts. If someone could host this for me (my router is a beast to work with and refuses to be port forwarded), major props to them! As for the description...

" In the middle of a barren, muddy sea, a giant green hill looms, towering above the surrounding waves. This hill is filled with tremendous caverns, which are so numerous they have never been fully mapped out. However, two teams have gathered here, building small forts while gathering in the water, leaving their intelligence and supplies floating in the calm seas as they prepare for a push to capture the vital information the enemy posses. This map focuses largely on controlling the center hill while being able to protect your exposed spawn points and intel"

I'm prototyping some map algorithms that will eventually go into pyspades. Not finalized or integrated yet, but some screenshots:

They're all based on massaging the "diamond-square midpoint displacement" algorithm with different parameters and post-processing. I like the first one in particular quite a bit - nice varied terrain.

The heightmap comes from TV "noise" via bildramer's bitmap converters. Ironically, the colors come from his converter's unintended use: using a PNG instead of a bitmap.

If you're a tunneler, you will fall in love with this map (this also goes for TK'ers, unfortunately). However, I wouldn't be afraid to take on the challenge of both your own team and the enemy. ;)

Host away! (that means I really, really want to play this map with other people)

First Melee weapon: Replace the spade (shovel) with a knife or different weapon and make the pickaxe do what the shovel did with Right Click

Second Day/Night: when the match starts it will be day then in a couple of like 20mins or so it will turn night time and once night time comes you recevice torchs so theres light

Third Classes:i heard alot about class and i kinda hearing what people are saying..we might want classes for more offesive people like ex:Solider would have Gun,Gernades,ammo pack ex: Medic would have Gun,gernads,medic pack and jump higher or something like that post some spin-off... ANYWAYs there are hundreds of combinations. O i almost forgot the time you select classes would be when you join the sever and when change teams UNless you can put in a menu than you can select in there or Even a HOTkey which is a shortcut for the keyborad

So thats all i wanted to say and post thing below of what you would want in the couple next Patches

This is a map set in the midst of a rocky desert. The map's centerpiece is a large canyon with a river. It is a mostly-symmetric map, with some liberties taken in the placement of buildings and vegetation.

Changelog:

-----------------
Version 2

Renamed map from "triplefox_desert" to "mesa."
Adjusted color palette, it should look roughly like the American Southwest now.
Adjusted a few bits of terrain
Rotated the map 90 degrees(by accident, actually)
Added buildings
Added giant-sized cacti - I suspect these will dwarf the players.
