jail map
- Thread starter evicted
- Start date
I fixed all of the hypercam issues and I will be able to get the video up Thursday (most likely). Until then I do need to go ahead and tell everyone the major issue that I explain in more detail during the video. The Long Hall got ALOT of complaints. People don;t want to be running back and forth all the time and I get that, I also feel that I didn't explain that hall well enough. See, that's not the hall you'll use a lot. There are multiple smaller halls and everything is in a close proximity to the things that are related to it (therefore, all activities like climbs and deathrace are close together and the special treatments stuff is also close together). That hall runs the entire length of the map and all the stuff is NOT spread out along it. Cells are in the middle of the map, with all the activities near by. The map is no bigger than alcatraz and if you made a hall running across alcatraz it would look exactly the same. That hall is just a connector in case people get lost so you don't spend ten minutes finding the rest of your team. I hope the video clears up any further issues regarding this and other comments. Please keep submitting those comments and I'll get the video out ASAP. Oh, you'll also notice that I put a status on my maps in my sig now, so this hopefully gives you a better idea of where I am in production.
New Screenshots
The screenshots have come sooner than expected, and now you can see some of the newer crap I've put in the map including
CT Outdoor Walkways:
and what will be Climb 1:
I will now be finishing up climb, constructing disco, making correct lighting, and adding lots of custom textures and propaganda for the UCTA.
UPDATE: I got most of the retexturing on the map done, so it doesn't just look like a bunch of bricks anymore. The outside, except for me adding a skybox and snow, will stay the way it is, because I think that the field of a jail looks better covered by brick. Solitary uses a solid brick texture as well.

It's not that bad if you are testing on a dedicated server you set up that has the KZ teleport/save scripts on it
Plus, the way I see it testing climbs only increases your skill at them (and frustration lol)
Maybe, I may have to set up one of my own cause I already promised some people they could test it, but I'll see what happens. Also, disco is now done and I'm adding the music now.
I've gotten some of the long hallway lighting done, as well as two of the custom textures. You can see one of them to the left as my avatar, and this is the first logo I'm going to use for the UCTA. If I make a better one eventually, I'll use that. Pretty simple.
Close, just lighting and detail stuff.
