I'm working on adding underwater tunnel entrances to each base ... got it complete for red base now, I'll add one for the blue base tomorrow

DRakE

Munch0r I'm pretty sure that for the blue base you should just copy/ paste and rotate it. Thats all really apart from a few texture changes [red->blue]

Yeah that's about all it involved. I added breakable grates to the tunnels as well, requiring 5000 points of damage to be dealt to them before they'll break

Current version of the map is downloadable from http://www.fortress.ie/reaver/munch/munch_ctf.zip

Stephen,

Q: How many squares (cubes) does the player take up? and what entity did you use for the player spawn?

Cheers

It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

Use info_player_start for a hldm map, use info_player_teamspawn for tfc team spawn points, make sure you right click the entity after to have created it and go to properties so you can set the team in which it will be spawning for (hehe)

Hope i could have been of some service

info_player_deathmatch for HLDM.

info_player_start -CT spawn [CS]
info_player_deathmatch - T spawn [CS][

The player is 32 cubes wide and 32 cubes
length wise and is 72 cubes heigh.Its the same size as the info_player_start.

I thought the player model was 64 characters high?

Anyway, in TFC, the info_player_teamspawn sets respawn points etc as already explained, but the info_player_start also needs to be present. It sets the spot where the floating camera bit you see at the start of each map is (ie, the view above 2fort when you join a game etc).

Also, i lost the rmf of munch_ctf in a HD crash, so there's no more work being done on it

I cant find info_player_teamspawn in the entity menu and when i try to run the map i get either a KERNEL32.DLL or a HW.DLL error


getting very annoyed

Q-ball, have you set up a TFC game config?
If you havent, look at the WC help file on how to do it, which includes using the TFC fgd file instead of the HL one for TFC entities.

If this is not clear, post where your halflife and team fortress folders are and I'll try and explain to you how to set it up.

Drake - I've started work on a TFC-Deathmatch map, something like XD_DM, which has seen a lot of action in the recent ign tfc deathmatch tourney thingy.

So far i've got a respawn room and a teleporter room with 3 non-functioning teleporters, because their destinations have not yet been built
