Post subject: Maps that need to be fixed |
 |
|
Hello there, since I couldn't find a specific topic for this issue (closest I found was Demona's thread of maps he fixed) I decided to post this.
 MH-(dU)Lostparadisev5
1) The portals that connect the various sections of the map do not allow for more players to pass at once: if two or more players jump inside, only one will pass through and the other will be stuck at the botton of the pit
2) One of the walls where the wooden bridge in the cave with the pupaes is will kill you if touched (see attached image)
MH-Crystalreactor
Bad movers (levers that need to be pushed to open gates) can kill players. It's pointless, frustrating and dumb.
MH-UnderwaterAssaultV2
This map has some issues online, since it suddenly crashed the server (probably towards the end).
Minor Issues
MH-KG_HighSchool
This map can't be fully cleared, as there are 300 monsters left in a creature factory which aren't spawned, would be nice to know why.
MH-MiningOutpost4F
This map came shipped with some experimental piece of trance music (nice one if I must say, ModPlugTracker can play it), problem is, the standard UT audio driver cannot play it properly, thus the final result is a couple of "whimpering" notes, repeated till the end of the days.
It's not a big deal, in fact I did put this into the "minor issues" category.
I will keep on editing this as soon as I find other maps with issues. |

Could you elaborate on the mover issue in MH-Crystalreactor?
Are the deaths avoidable?
There are a lot of maps with movers that crush players. It's usually a design choice. |

That's interesting, would be nice if we could make a unique thread with all map related problems.

First of all, I think that's a conversion from an Assault map.
Second, the deaths cannot be avoided, I.E. the player dies as soon as he approaches the lever to activate it.
Third, maybe it made some sense in assault to force a player's death  in order to open a gate (fail to see how though), but it seems rather stupid to me  that occurs also in a MH conversion, specially on a server that subtracts one third of your score upon death. A player triggered two of those levers, died both times and left afterwards. |

The death is, in fact, unavoidable. However, i am still surprised the reason that no one ever solved this problem yet.

This happens only in MH Version of the map. Originally, it's a Single map from some Coop campaign created by EddX. I remember that I downloaded the map once - this one and Coop version - and tried to locate which room provokes that map to crash. It's near Slith rooms: the one with the Skaarjs on top is the most frequented room when the players arrive there. As many other players noticed, the way to avoid the crash is defending the enemy in the middle and swim up, leaving the room fast as possible.
I even removed the Sliths of the two rooms and ran the map again. Went to same area and the map crashed again on same place.
So, it still remains misterious  |

I suppose that it's not a problem of UT Audio Driver. The problem was generated at the moment when UMX file was created on UT Editor. However, aparently, a simple editing via original IT file can solve this one, placing the commands correctly or just converting it to WAV file and then import to UT Editor to create a new UMX file.
I downloaded that map years ago and test it converting the IT file to WAV file and importing to UT Editor to create a UMX file. It worked but the audio had a lower volume compared to the other UMX file - well, it was a noobie thing to be honest.
If anyone knows how to manipulate commands on IT files and/or other mod plug trackers, maybe can solve this in a better way.

What do you think about MH-subway and MH-Krallfortress110?
They both contain movers that can sometimes break the maps and make it impossible to make progress. |
