==============
remember it's the first map i ever made.....so of course it won't be the best looking/greatest map ever.....
okay my first map i ever made with UED) will be done in the next week. It is called TH-Payback (-=:ToB:=-Payback: Paying Sins).
The map takes place in a small town. In this town a man (landlord) owns a big mansion..but that's not all...he owns all the property in town. Everyone ether works for him or the money they earn goes to him. It's about time to collect the bills, and the town's people are low on cash.... so here is the brilliant idea: break into the bastard's mansion and rob his arse...onc complete run back into the town and when it's time to pay the bills...you pay with the money you stole!
The mansion holds many people. It has: bars, gardens, many rooms, 3 stories, a servant/guest house, pool, stage/theater, library, offices, and big long hallways, and dinning rooms. This place is heavily guarded so watch out!!! (or at least i hope it will be...didn't put the AI in yet). Find a way into the mansion and don't freak out when you hear those damn rabbits sqeek... try avoiding the rats because they may just get curious and follow you sometime...
Rumor has it that the 'bastard' (didn't give him a name yet) has found a new artifact that fell from the small red planet near the moon. He called it the 'Tear of Blood' ..anyway...that should sell for a nice price in the market so it may be in your interest to grab it and help you complete the loot objective
.
Died?? Full of bordom?? Spectating?? or played it too many damn times?? look around for the dr. pepper cans, see if you can find them all. OR go mess around in the rat arena. OR maybe you rather try finding your way through the rat maze. OR you just wanna look for some good ol' secrets... the secret places aren't hard to find...it's getting there that will be the problem...you'll need to go and find the keys laid throughout the map. Make sure to read what the people wrote in thier letters and books..may give you some valueble hints

Hey those screenies sure look good DP...haha i use 'loaded' when testing my maps so i don't run out fo vine/water arrows and stuff...also use 'god'
Nice big screenshots
Looks/sounds promising. I hope it will be slightly (if not a lot) better then desert kings. I didn't like that one.
Hey DP whats this file called "Factory" that Payback (d/led off tob site) asks for?
WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?! A rat arena is one of my maps most closely guarded secrets and here is another map with the ideaOR go mess around in the rat arenaalso every good idea I have appears on the forums a week later

I've seen the prelims of this map. Don't let DP's modesty fool you, it's a nice looking map. Warning, though, the polycounts and other resource drains are fairly high in most of the areas shown in those screenshots. Low end machines might have some problems.
damn it...you weren't supposed to download it!!! you loser!!!!...now i'll have to add a script to make sure you'll never be able to play it again MWHAHAH... actually the file is a texture file. i used some custom textures in the map that are included in the zip (those make the zip like 1.5 megs bigger).Originally posted by [NAUC]Chief

and yes like LR said...the polys in some areas can reach to the high 200 low 300 but they are usually 125 and below.... but if you don't have any problems with DE than this should be a piece of cake
hmmm there wasnt a texture in with the zip-just the mapoh well im red/ling it
anyway i d/led it before i saw this thread
pfff..you wish..the zip is going down so all you damn wanna be lazy hackers won't get it :POriginally posted by [NAUC]Chief

Cool looking screenies.damn it dalai! stop giving away my plans!
this would be the very first time i even uploaded it LOL..... omg....this was from like 4 months ago. anyway ya i didn't even know i had custom textures at the time so when i tried to have someone check it out they couldn't join... anyway right now the zip with textures is about 2.4 megs i believe... maybe more. i still need to add texturing/lighting/ furniture to about 6 rooms. then add doors AI objectives and secrets.Originally posted by [NAUC]Chief

No seriously, nice looking stuff. I mentioned the idea of a rat arena a few weeks ago though, on the Merc forums. However, I don't know if I can be bothered to create one in my map.
it will mostly be a simple room where teh rats can go and 'fang' out togetherOriginally posted by The_Dan

What about the AI rats? Is that where they'll be? (I only ask, because I want to know where to find myself in that map.)Originally posted by DarkProject

You know, i din't know you wanted to add an rat area in the map ( neither did i know you had an map
Anyways, dp, im gonna kill you personally if your map runs with lag on my computer. I warn you.
The map looks awsome btw
Well, as much as I hate spilling my secrets, I was thinking of having several Tom-&-Jerry-style mouse-holes on the level where rats could pass through & be teleported to the arena.Originally posted by DarkProject

From the arena, they could be teleported to any of the major points in the level, or just stay & fight. I might even throw in some traps.
Even you stole my idea!!! Hmm, wait a minute ... you and dp are working together, right ?Originally posted by The_Dan

Pfff ... stealing my mouse holes idea :/
( btw, portals and stuff aint a good idea i think. Dunno why exactly, but i still think it's an bad idea. The traps might be fun though
I assume you mean teleporters, not portals. Never mind
Anyway, I've got a level somewhere on my hard drive, where it has several teleporters that are "invisble", and when you look through them, it looks like you're just looking directly into the destination area.
I'm hoping I will be able to work out in UED how it was done, since that way I won't have to worry about rats spending 5 mins getting to the right part of the level so they can enter the arena.
