No, most maps are not done yet. Ill add levelchanges and put averything together when all the maps are 100% completed.
nooo...that will make bugs.The monsters you didnt kill will warp in somewhere else in next map! :(

or only ones that are visible from the landmark

Hey! It's me! Cool :biggrin:.

You know, though, if you used a browser younger than your grandparents, you'd see that there shouldn't be a strangely-coloured box around my monkey...

I think the corridor would look better if there were lots of little torch-style lights recessed into the wall. Just my opinion.

Torch style: like medieval torches, the flaming ones, on wall brackets, and frequent as they are but dim, sirrah, they are but dim <cackles>.

they might suit that hall but certainly wouldnt suit the mod.

I don't mean literally flaming torches, just more subtle lighting. The two protruding light-boxes there are a little displeasing to the eye.

Hahahahah, Hunter, omfg pwn.

But i agree on the the computers. They don't look like... Computers. Its becuase of those ehh... "keyboards." Keyboards are usualy not placed vertically, but horizontally.

You could make something like this:

they will? i thought it only affected nearby monsters
or only ones that are visible from the landmark
That is correct. Other monsters not near the changelevel wont be warped into the next map.

Oh yeah, you can "play" it without registering.

Why didn't you put it up at a real host at a decent size and framerate?

Posted 19 years ago2005-09-09 06:29:53 UTC Post #133391
I don't have a levelchange problem. :)
Posted 19 years ago2005-09-09 10:47:19 UTC Post #133459
:quizzical: sure? did you combine the levels and test it?

ok with me.But tell me if you do.I ve got an idea so that you wont have to map all over again

There's an entity that allows you to control what entities are transported to the new map with a level-change, actually...

A bit of a busy background, I think it takes away too much attention from the menu text. Other than that, looks good.

Yea, I say keep the gmans, but rid it of other species. (Grunt, alien grunt.. etc)

I played it and the splash screen suits it although I think it should show all the maps and not just Hunters ;)

im going to send my part A to hunter now. I still think it needs more detail in the starting area, but this is still just the alpha relese right?

EDIT:
sent

and how about the splash proposed earlier with the logo that I made, a little change in text color and the HL menu will be readable

it was only in gif form my thing was messed up anyway.

and what are we going to go for for a final relese date? Jan 1/06 sounds good to me
