Re: map-xpctf3-v1.0
Suggestions for v 1.0a
- work more on lighting (less ambient and more point lights so walls and floor would be shadowed)
- consider using standard textures (or smaller jpgs), smaller levelshot and no aas for smaller pk3 (~500 kb)
After this is done I could try this map on my servers

Re: map-xpctf3-v1.0
why no .aas file ? and why less quality or small map?? this will be in a mappack => all maps in 1 big pk3
i agree that the textures shouldnt be high quality but low quality is bad .. i dont wanna make a map that looks bad..
if you think about ingame download 15kb limit, then like i said, it will be a mappack so every1 will need to download it before joining q3 and will be able to play.
another solution would be maybe implementing the fast download into q3? i remember some1 posted something about this .. about how to download maps in q3 with more then 15 kb ... ( a small pk3?)
or leave it how it is
i understand what you say, but think that i have a big map with lots of details that uses only custom textures .. nothing standard .. how to do it in 500kb? it will probably have 2 mb or 3 or 4.. (i'm just saying)
ofc we need to make it as small as possible yes .. but i won't lower the quality too much.

Re: map-xpctf3-v1.0
1. @epsi the q3-exe has to be modiefied for fast download, so the mod wouldn't be serverside anymore.
2. Why alis maps look always so ugly? Squares all over the place, i mean, boring texture design. (i dont speak about the map design, i dunno about it, i speak of the textures, they are so unidirectional)
If i would design the walls in my house that why i would kill myself earlier or later or die from boredom.

: hi _LB I SEE THAT TOO 2 spectators all day on the Carnage Elite server weird
: Sup.
: I see 2 spectators all day on the Carnage Elite server with random names and equal ping times. What's the story on this? Anyone?
: although it’s unlikely that anyone will go there xD
: Dear FREON server administration, maybe it’s a good idea to convert the CTF server to rail duel 1v1. r4e09f.cfg?? can anyone support me? 
: Hi. Is there any way to host an excessiveplus server in South Africa. What is needed - Please let me know
: new version without Odessa https://www.exc...
: what happen with Odessa DM17 ?
: I think you also were in LSF xD bax/fireman here. Cheers dude
: Co tam wiesz..schudłem całe 3 kilo :]
Who's online
There are currently 2 users and 10 guests online.
I mean by : map compatible with plusN.cfg that the items there are placed like plusN should have so no need to update plusN cfg to have them
But ofc map is playable in all configs and about all gametypes (it's not a tournament map)
@panda: I have tried a version with ur suggestions and I have managed to have a pk3 of 700KB but the quality is reduced + (have reduced light) the result isn't so cool. What I could do is a compromize between both things (quality and size)
