ctf_Wretch [update]

[AdamD]

i've created a new topic as because of the new poly types, the map functions fine now.

you can view the old topic here.

the map is available on #soldat.mapping's server, but it is under the name ctf_Wretch1

before, the poly types were charlie flag only, to hold the flag on the platforms, but they have since been updated to the new 'flag only' polytype, which is how i originally wanted the map to work.

please let me know what you think!

Map with a great potential, but imo it should be little bigger (to make caps harder or atleast not as often) and look should be improved. It's non-unique, poor look, maybe you should experiment with lights and shadows?

To be honest, personally I'm fed up with all these "super HD" polyworks map. I think the real climate of Soldat maps is this like on inf_Rise, inf_Moonshine, Flashback, Bigfalls, Ratcave, Bunker. Simple, sometimes "makeshift". And this one looks like that.

the size is fine for most regular players, making it bigger would make it more difficult to chase down caps.

With the new polytype the main problem of this map is gone.
This will be considered as a candidate for default.

Hello AdamD,

I tested the map several times in 3vs3 CTF configuration, at every occasion it offered great fluid game-play.
Routes, layout, colliders, spawn, ... Everything seems to be in place and well thought out.

The new poly-type was all that was missing to make this map a definitive keeper.

This is indeed a candidate for default.

Hello AdamD,

We are considering your map for inclusion in the default map pack.

I tried my hand at fixing some polybugs. You'll find the updated map attached to this post.


Here is an image showing the locations of the fixes:

We will need someone to waypoint this, I just wish that Keron Cyst was still around

[Blacksheepboy]

I haven't played Soldat in ages, so I forget some typical movement patterns, but I could waypoint. It would help if someone drew some colored lines for where they want bots to go, if it's anything special.

It looks simple enough..

Edit: Oh hah, I'm using an old version of Polyworks, no wonder why it's crashing when I select that polygon.

No, still crashing. Are flag-only polygons something you have to edit into your map using something like the one-way flipper? I did the waypoints by the way, but the polygon compiles as solid.

A big thanks to Fryer who created awesome waypoints for this map. <3


We just tested it with 8 bots. It works pretty well.
