As of now we only have 3, and that doesn't make for much of a compo.

Ill still judge IMUS' entry. He pm'd me earlier and asked for a 10 minute extension because he was still uploading it.

I worked off and on all month on this... and since I finished it ON Nov 2nd... I'm hoping it can be considered!! If not, here is the link anyway.. an early work in progress of a much bigger idea... needs lots of fixes and additions, but here is the beta completed version for the compo :)

Enjoy guys! I'll submit to the vault in a bit with a pic...

Posted 15 years ago2008-11-03 09:59:41 UTC Post #258080
:D Yay! Thank you thank you! I see now the other entries have their name built into the BSP as well as "compo entry 26" in one way or another... sorry... I'll know for future submissions how to properly submit a map :). First compo entry ever!

Also, good work on your map, Imus. Lots of seemingly nodraw areas throughout though where you can see into the void, but there might have been a glitch on my end somehow. Got through all all of the puzzles except the last one (I think its the last one)...

The all black room you fall into at the end, I unnavoidingly died from fall damage because I had 4 life when I jumped in.... and it autosaves just before you land... so I had like a split second to go into the console to load 'god' before I splatted... also, after the last yellow grid comes at you, I avoided it, but then got stuck in that black room with the 4 blue lines... I couldn't find any exit by searching the walls.. .crouching, jumping, or walking along them to find the exit. I finally noclipped to the opposite side of the room... opposite of the 4 blue lasers, and I wound up in an all white room, triggering text basically saying I found the end. I loaded the game and tried to find the exit again to get to that white room without cheating but couldn't find it... I may decompile it and look in hammer where the exit is... might try one more time :P

That aside I liked the visuals and it had some fun puzzles! Good 20 minute romp.
Posted 15 years ago2008-11-03 15:06:19 UTC Post #258097
Imus, do I have to enable console in episode 2 to play your entry? If so I can't get it to work with gcf scape "I cant find the config. file"
Posted 15 years ago2008-11-03 17:27:00 UTC Post #258099
to open up his map in any non mp half life2 mod, enable console, type map 'name of map' and then click enter (enter button - most comonly one of the biggest buttons on your keyboard(keyboard - keyboard is what you use to type(type - type is what smart people do)))

I did open it through hl2 but most of the textures were missing and just pink and black checkered. So I was trying to find out how to get console enabled with episode 2.
Posted 15 years ago2008-11-03 21:26:28 UTC Post #258104
Skals: don't be a smartass.

zeeba-G: should be in the keyboard options in-game, click the advanced button.

For anyone that tried my map.

(Spoilers?)
Sorry, i made a couple mistakes, like I forgot to cushion the fall at the end, so In most cases you will probably end up dying from the fall, you can no clip to the bottom so you can actually finish the last trap. AFTER that I thought for sure that the blue lasers were supposed to cut off and the exit was supposed to open. So just noclip to the white box toward the back of the room for a short text ending.
(Spoilers End)

and Thanks for the playthrough Dark Tree :cool:

Im going to fix those problems and finish polishing it,then submit it to the Vault.(I gotta do that before L4D demo comes, cause noway im getting any work done after that.)

Hehe... upon further inspection, it seems the only missing textures are the water textures.... you may either be using a custom texture for the water or it is just my computer.... can anyone else confirm or deny if they can see water when they play? Also, if you wanted the soundbyte "silent hill 4 soundtrack - 14 - pulsating ambience.mp3" to play, I'm pretty sure you to rename it so that there are no spaces... maybe not. Either way, it doesn't play when I play, so, you might need to embed the track into the BSP or include it in the zip ^_^. Quite the mysterious map :))
Posted 15 years ago2008-11-04 20:17:25 UTC Post #258129
No, I could'nt see the water either. It just looked like void. Really cool entry though the begining entrance was amazing! And thanks strider, I didn't know you could enable console that easily.
Posted 15 years ago2008-11-04 21:29:55 UTC Post #258161
I'm sorry if the laser puzzle crashed for anyone. This is an error that has not occured for me or my testers, and quite frankly, the level is sooooooooooooooo complex there is little chance i could actually determine the cause of the crash.

#EDIT# I also got the strange water error. I didn't know what it was so i tried to jump in but i was out of there quicker than i got in! lol. I've got the other entries, Zeeba-G's looks good, i'll play tonight, got a work training session this arvo.

#DOUBLE EDIT# And Skals! Dude! Peace...

I don't know what Tetsu means by that comment...but

There are a set of stairs embedded in the wall on one side of the water pit area. There is also a button on the opposite side of the room which activates them. I won't tell you how to solve the puzzle, but now you know what to look for.

I've played the other two entries. Skals was good, not extremely puzzling but nice gameplay. Zeeba-G, i have yet to master your puzzle, but I have figured it out! (all without using any of your cheat books!
