Maps

[Beek]

k just download shrikebot and started making waypoints. Pretty cool.
Dave are there any maps you would like to add that you need waypoints for. Start me out with a smaller map please.

Beek, Dave sent me this, there are some really cool maps on it!

Go to DOD Classic and hit the maps.


The 4 star rated all look pretty slick!

ps: love the avatar...helmut class!

Yeah, it is pretty cool too I think. I would have had a few maps made already, but I keep running into some problems when I test it out.

My main problem is that I'll create some waypoints and connect them with pathwaypoints and the bots will get hung up on a waypoint and not procede to the next waypoint after that. The waypoints connected are not that far apart either, so I don't know what's going on.

I don't have any waypoints for dod_warsaw yet, even though I have the map on my server. That's a simple straightforward map to try out if you like. Dod_murky2 is probably the smallest map that I can think of at the moment. It only has 3 flags on it.

Here's a list of all the waypoints that I have currently: Ultimate Waypoint Pack

Ok I got some basics movement down for both Axis and Allies on Warsaw. Seeing as I don't know how to attach files, I emailed it to you Dave. I'm going to mess around with some maps that are already complete to see how I can improve the nav points.

Looks pretty good Beek. That should make the map a lot more fun now. I just FTP'd them to the server. Thanks for your contribution!

[Beek]

Thanks Dave.

I cleaned up escape a little bit and sent you the file.
Allies no longer get stuck at the tank
Axis now shoot the two big guns.


If anyone sees any other maps that have bot issues let me know and I'll try to clean up the nav points.

Is this your first try at this Beek!? It seems like you've done it before! It's either that supercomputer you have or your a genius!
(I'll go with the first one ;D)

[Beek]

I'm just a newbie at this. Us train drivers can usually figure things out.

Just saw two maps that are pretty fun
dod_dani_b2
and dust_2006

Unfortunately there are no bot waypoints for those maps.

[daver201]

New map on the server: dod_koln_b3

I also fixed the bot waypoints for the allies on dod_northbound near their spawn area. So hopefully they won't keep getting stuck there any longer.

Nice map Dave, by the way i kick maclovin ass hihihihi

[daver201]

I also added dod_campagne if you guys haven't noticed yet.

[profbuldge]

I've heard this map was too big by a few people.

This map, far and away, resembles what the average squad faced in the Normandy campaign. It has bocage, ambush points aplenty and if you had a full server the Allies would have a horrific
time trying to beat it. (with an intelligent opponent)

On my trip to Normandy a year or so ago I could not believe the landscape and how tense it must have been to move through it. This map conveys that well.

You MUST travel in a squad on that map! It is an awesome map!
