My new map!

[Mikko Sandt]

Are the DC textures (maybe four of them?) really so essential that you can't replace them?

Download link doesn't seem to work. Has it been removed? All it seems to link to is a "404" page.

It probably just expired. (Mental note: don't use files-upload.com again)

[Mikko Sandt]

Is an improved version still on the way?

I haven't made an improved version yet. There's no motivation to work on it right now. So I don't know when I'll upload a new version.

BTW I don't know why the download-link of the old version doesn't work anymore

[blizzart]

Mia Max,
can you please post a working download link???
None of them you posted seem to work anymore.

[Iggy]

I could mirror it if someone sends it to me.

[Mikko Sandt]

I could post a Fileplanet link but then I'd get all these "you have to pay for Fileplanet" comments from idiots.

Yes and then I upload it at D4E thus leaving those anti-FilePlanet idiots without teeth.

[DeeperThought]

HERE. It is missing a few tiles, because he included some from Duke it Out in DC and assumed everyone had it.

Thanks Iggy!

[dukewannabehs]

I like the look of it, but its not really Duke style the landscape dont you think?

[Mia Max]

I want to start building on my map/mod again this weekend.
So it would be very helpfull if you tell me which parts of my map are bad.
I've already changed some details, but I don't want to make a tiny update, so please let me know.
Perhaps I will add some secret rooms.

[Dead Chief]

I Think you should make a new map but thinking before adding new textures, for example don't use DukeDC if there's a chance that people won't have it. I think building a map HRP only is borderline...let alone adding textures from add ons like DukeDC or Caribbean, The people that will play it is not much if you make it too difficult to install.

As I said, I recommend making a new map from scratch having those points in mind.

[Sang]

Nah, all he needs to do is to put whatever new tiles he's using in a seperate ART file (preferably TILES014) and include it with his map.

[Mia Max]

I just want to get my map/mod complete.
I will remove the textures from DukeDC and change some details of my map. I won't waste too much time on it anymore, but I have to get it done.

[Mia Max]

I've made a music video of my map:

I don't understand english very well, so I hope music isn't out of place

[Mia Max]

After a long time, I've built a new map.
To play it, you will need Atomic Edition, HRP and sd_duke. (I used those to build this map)

The map isn't very long (about 50 enemies), but there are big areas.
To finish the map, you must find the exit door.

Please give it a try and leave some feedback!

ENJOY! the attached file



BTW, my last map/mod doesn't work with newer versions of sd_duke anymore!

[The Commander]

You will really have to stop using SD_Duke for your maps. I would love to download this and try it but I dont want to use SD_Duke because I use another enanching mod. Could you release a non SD version?

[Mia Max]

I'll try, if it works without sd_duke too. I'll tell you then.

EDIT: Yes, it works!

[The Commander]

Well, I cant try it yet. But when I downloaded that other map (Even the newer updated one by DT) it still was screwy, missing textures ect.

[Mia Max]

Nobody has played my map yet?
Please give it a try. It isn't that long level and you don't need any mods (I guess so :-)

[HolyFool]

Just played Dabigone. Very short but enjoyable for what it was, it had a rather Quake-ish feel to it which I liked. There's a sky texture bug when playing in 8 bit mode which you may want to know about (screen attached).

What is it? Sorry, but i havn't heard of any other enhancing mod other than SD_Duke.

Deeper Thoughts Duke Plus, Its in his Sig. Lets mappers make see though water easyly and just bout any thing else. Plus it has most of the effects of SD_Duke

[Mia Max]

I have tried my map with Duke Plus. This mod is so awesum. I didn't know that it would be that great!
Thanks a lot to Deeper Thoughts
But it even needs more system requirements. But that's okey.
My new graphics card should arrive today

[The Commander]

Does this map work with Duke Plus with OUT the SD_Mod?

[Mia Max]

Yes it works very well.

BTW: I've seen the great fogs in Duke Plus in some sample maps. How can I make that kind of fogs in mapster32?

[The Commander]

I know that the fog in water is documented but I cant rember how to make the fog in normal sectors, but im pretty sure it has something to do with the PAL's

[Spiker]

The map itself is very good - 9/10

Yes, I played it last night, its very short but very good. Wish I could play his other one but it doesnt work for me for some reason, missing textures ect.

[Mia Max]

Thank you guys!
I know, the map is very short, but I didn't want to investigate so much time in this map like in my last one.

@The Commander:
My last map works only with hrp, sd_duke and it uses some textures from Duke It Out In D.C.
Since newer sd_duke releases there are even more Problems.

Maybe, I will remake my map and it won't need DC textures and sd_duke anymore. Perhaps I will delate my mod and use only original textures.

[Spiker]

Actualy I was talking about the first map. Yes, the one that causes some problems, because I also had missing textures but somehow managed without them. But it's not the fault of the map and it was great. I'm going to play this short one later.

[The Commander]

Yeah, you should re-release the first map. With just it using the HRP. Then more pep's could play it.

[Spiker]

This short map is not bad but the first one is 5 times better!

[Mia Max]

Well, guess what!
I've remade my first map and I've needed just the whole weekend for that

I replaced all mod and DC textures (except for one).
So now, my level is playable without any mods.

I've already tested it with classic mode, Duke Plus and Sd_duke. Everything works fine, but in classic mode, the level is very dark and many sprites are out of place ...but it's playable

The map is still very, very long!

I'd be happy if people play my level. And please tell me every bug (I guess there are some, because I really did a lot of changes)

ENJOY!

[Mikko Sandt]

A txt is needed. People want to know who made the map.

How to get out of this room? Both the door in the pic & the one you use to enter the bar get locked once you enter this conference room:



These sprites should be flat:



This looks a bit odd although I'm sure it's got to do with the fact that I'm playing without the HRP:



The flag needs to be flipped. Also, why did you remove the cool looking Duke statue? It looked particularly neat with the HRP:

[Mia Max]

Thank you for testing it in classic mode!

In the conference room there is a table with a switch on the back side next to the screen. If not, I will have to correct it in classic mode.

I will correct the sprites in second pic.

In HRP there would be a light effect in third pic.

The flags are aligned in sd_duke.

But for now I can't make any changes. I got big problems with my new graphics card
