Ok, I just got done finishing a smaller CTF map for the public to play with since mod maps are now allowed on WOL. It is situated in an abandoned Hand of Nod in the desert. It is the single player version of the building. (Thanks to ACK for the SP HON structure.) Nod has the basement of the structure, and GDI has the control room, near where the MCT is. You can travel outside, but you can only travel a certin distance. There are pleanty of paths to get to the enemies' base, and their flag. However, there is only one path directly to the flag for both teams. In order to win, you must capture the flag 5 times, and return it to your base.
I plan to get screenies up with a download tomorrow evening, or Saturday morning. I still need to test it online to see if it works correctly. It isn't the greatest thing, but this is a map for CTF. I am working on a much, much better map, but it won't be done till maybe next week. Look for the download tomorrow evening. It is called C&C_HON_CTF, original isn't it?
UPDATE: Beanyhead and I just got done beta testing this map on WOL. It works; we could both capture and return the flag to our zones. The map is almost done. I have a few finishing touches to perform on it, such as weapon/health spawners, outside objects like trees, mainly eye candy. This map is running on schedule, and will be released tonight or tomorrow morning. There is also a chance of it appearing on MMN this Saturday! Until then, keep fragging.
UPDATE 2: The map is finished, and pics have been released. All that remains now is to wait for Beanyhead to upload it on his site, and then it is all good to go. This map will also be on MMN this Saturday, so make sure you get it.
And now, for the pics: Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Picture 4 Picture 5 Picture 6 Picture 7
Look for the download tomorrow morning. Until then, you will just have to look at the pictures.
UPDATE 3: The map is available for download! Thanks go out to CNCHQ.com for hosting the map. And now, here is the link:
CNC_HON_CTF
Please, be sure to read the Read Me file for install instructions. There is more to it then just extracting it into your Data folder.
Go to town with this one. Also, make sure you get it for Mod Map Night today. It will be hosted.
As always, have fun. [ January 11, 2003, 09:48: Message edited by: vloktboky03 ]

Sounds good, let us know any futher progress on the map. Also if its any use to you i can more than likely get the map hosted on a 16 player public server if it works ok. I'm interested in how the CTF mode works (i mean making the CTF maps).
Good Luck [ January 10, 2003, 10:38: Message edited by: General Havoc ]

I hope not. When Beanyhead and I tested it, we didn't have any lag from it. Some people have also said they don't get lag, like in some of the DM games out there. If it causes real problems, I can always release an updated one with ladders instead.

Are you sure about that? I just clicked on all of them, and they worked for me.
Okay, now they are. At first I got some errors on some of them.

This is a question to anyone out there. Do you think it's possible to have an animated flag for CTF mode? I don't know much about W3D but i know its possible to do some animation (am i right?). Would it be possibel to have an animated flag that moves like its in the wind for example? Would this be possible?

You everr carried a silk flag indoors whilst running? besides it seems to work in Unreal Tournament. Currently the flag looks like it is made from a piece of MDF. even animating the flag so that it moves gently or the end hangs down to show the effect of gravity. Also who said that the CTF maps were or had to be indoors.

LOL, I know the flag looks like it is frozen. I don't think I have the skill to make an animated flag that would look real. Besides, isn't it gameplay that really matters?
CnCHQ.com is down right now, so as soon as Beanyhead's site gets back up, look for a download for this map.
