DXMP_Area51_TheDayAfter

Post by **ShadowRunner** » 11 Sep 2006, 06:31

This is Martinez's 0015_Area 51_Entrance "nuked" more by Shadowrunner.
I've also used parts of Martinez's DXMP_Area51Bunker.
Comm, Tower and Hangar have been connected by large tunnels and lifts.

The 20mm has been moved from near the hangar to the lowest tunnel inside and the Comm door has been changed to make this large map as playable as the original multi-player map...

I kept actors to a minimum, aligned to grid and kept things simple, neat and clean as possible.

I made some Browning .50 cal's... and spilled more toxic waste...

sorry can u explain plz. In this map Area 51 is supposed to be in "bad shape".

Do you mean you found a map error, a shape is not good?

I found a couple of errors... the tower turret doesn't link and there are two walls in the tunnels that need textures aligning with the next wall... I'll fix it and the Zeppelin map ASAP...but...Area51_TheDayAfter is too big...

It's not really my map.

It is the 14th level in DXSP, made by Monte Martinez, which I have edited and added tunnels from the 15th mission in DXSP. To answer your question, it took 4 days to edit and add more map. Most maps take me between 2-4 days. I will spend about another 2 days making it ready for DXSG Stargate.

Rough guess = 60 hours. This includes unreal editor errors and playtesting.

I would think to make a good MP map will take anyone at least 30 hours to make it properly. After 10 hours I get tired and make mistakes, which have to be corrected after sleep. So I can not make a map in one day. It takes at least two... a big map would take 120 hours at least.

A bit of an overstatement, don't you think?

oh shadowrunner, right before the chaos begins (if it did not happen already)
if you make changes on your map and release it again, then please not with the same name, or we will end up in a chaos of version mismatches

Thanks Nobody...

DXSG_Area51_TheDayAfter is almost ready for you... just repair bots, wep racks and some final details...

is DXSG_Area51_TheDayAfter ok for a name... changing from DXMP to DXSG, but keeping the rest of the name the same? or would DXSG_TheDayAfter be better?

And Jon...Hmm ok 15-20 hours maybe... is that exaggeration?

DXSG_Area51_TheDayAfter is ok.

However you need to tell me yet, to where the ring-transporters shall be placed.

Here are the LEAST dimensional conditions for the rings (not that you suggest a place where a ring transporter can't be placed)

Diameter of the rings: 256 Units
Height of the chassis where the rings are in IDLE: 160 Units
Space the rings need if they are activated: 160 Units

since a picture says more than 1000 words.. here a sketch

Awesome Nobody, I have posted in the DX section of this site. I think they will fit. I must check the comm building is 160 high though... I made sure the rooms have space in the floor for the Idle rings...

Here is the map... the notes about ring locations and codes are in the thread in Deus Ex section called DXSG_Area51TheDayAfter....

EDIT: Disregard beta 1-7 . Here is beta 8...ready for rings and weps. Trigger lights are faulty...

EDIT : please note this is BETA 8 version

EDIT: OK here is beta 9... Jon has this version and is the same version uploaded to rapidfire and available at [A]thread...

looks much cleaner, well done - nice try with the weapon racks, too - they'll do nicely

Post by **ShadowRunner** » 01 Nov 2006, 16:31

Jonny Boy says nice .... shadow smiles a lot!!!

Thanks guv'nor... if you want to remake the wep racks or anything else, I'm sure you will do a better job...

There is still the issue of lift shafts, at the bottom end... and umm the super-weps, we have to place them correctly, this is very crucial...

thanks a lot, if Jon like... then I must be doing something right...

Anything you would like / like me to improve?

I'm beginning to think it could be good with the lights in the base, permanently broken... (if fitted into a 3/4 map rotation)
