Hi,

As requested by many players and server admins, here are the custom ents files having the following features :

All previous spawnpoints on the maps are kept intact.
New spawnpoints have been added.
CTF, RTF and 1FCTF compatibility for all baseq3 maps.
Grouped teams spawn compatible
No more air spawns (except q3dm4 and q3dm14 : they have few on very hidden places)

The list of modified maps are :

q3ctf1
q3ctf2
q3ctf3
q3ctf4
q3dm0
q3dm1
q3dm2
q3dm3
q3dm4
q3dm5
q3dm6
q3dm7
q3dm8
q3dm9
q3dm10
q3dm11
q3dm12
q3dm13
q3dm14
q3dm15
q3dm16
q3dm17
q3dm18
q3dm19
q3tourney1
q3tourney2
q3tourney3
q3tourney4
q3tourney5
q3tourney6
q3tourney6_ctf
pro-q3dm6
pro-q3dm13
pro-q3tourney2
pro-q3tourney4

To install :
extract the zip into excessiveplus/maps folder

How to enable/disable :
use the command xp_noCustomEnts disable the ents file
or
define a specific rotation like following :

xp_noCustomEnts : "1"
 
q3dm8
 
q3dm7 {
  xp_noCustomEnts : "0"
}
 
q3dm11
 
q3dm6 {
  xp_noCustomEnts : "0"
}

Here, the custom ents are disabled by default for all map except the ones having xp_noCustomEnts : "0"

Servers actually having those ents for test are :
NXS Freeze
FFA.OR.NOONE
|ZoO|Attraction CTF/RTF/1FCTF
!B@N@N@ 1vs1 Railonly
!B@N@N@ CTF Railonly
!B@N@N@ CW/FW/Train Private Server

Special thanks :

to epsilon for help and making some ents files
to all others who helped me find some ctf bases.

for more informations check the docs section.

regards,

Re: Baseq3 ents files

I haven't got any feedback yet, so I suppose all like them and for all maps ?

If you find a spawn inapropriate, pls post exact location (map/room/details) so it could be fixed.

And if you have missed something I remember you what it was about : http://www.excessiveplus.net/forums/thread/make-new-ents-files-for-default-maps

Anyone wanna become tester ?

Re: Baseq3 ents files

i only recognized some of the new spawns at ffa or noone and all of them which are high up in the air bothered me.. especially on spacemaps..

maybe it is a thing of taste but i want to spawn on the floor, so i can move right on.. when starting in the air one is limited to low speeds and no weaponmovements.. and this doesnt feel right for excessive plus

but it seems all who like this server liked the spawns so dont mind my rumbling

Man, can you help me pls removing "bad air spawns" that you don't like by telling me what maps are you talking about and what what air spawn exactly.

I admit some air spawns aren't so cool, but some hidden like on q3dm4 seems cool.

And it isn't always a bad thing to spawn in the air (players don't see upper of themself to check if some1 coming)

Re: Baseq3 ents files

as i said i dislike all air spawns on open maps/space maps because it limits the movability and slows one really down.. but maybe thats a thing of taste..

so i cant help you single out some bad air spawns since i totally dislike the airspawnconcept on open maps

yeah, they totally suck especially when you spawn above a jumppad: you fall, then you jump - can't aim properly, more over, you're an easy target while you're in mid-air. for example, dm17 becomes totally unplayable, imo.
maybe it was a bad idea to create new spawn points

People are training hard to hide their autoshoot so well while gain enough skills to win (or at least compete on similar level) without them. This is getting insane or provoked. I feel like I would cut myself with Ockham's Razor if I claim a cheat there.

Re: Baseq3 ents files

changes:

removed the gametype filter from ctf spawns to prepare for upcoming teamed spawns.
added q3ctf1 to q3ctf4 so you can remove all previous q3* .ents and .add files.
