New Map: Blackout-b1 first playable version

[A Spork]

Eff 1

[==Troy==]

patch will be released once I will talk to google about fixing one of the bugs.

But people, do realise, that the code is at the "proof of concept" state, its NOT a release code, neither it is anywhere close ot be stable and working. Once it is released, it WILL NOT be supported in the future versions, and only by luck you will get maps working for the newer versions without having to recompile with the new entities.

Thanks ==Troy==

like I said earlyer

Just let me know when it becomes available

[Basilo]

Whenever i play as humans I always spawn in this dark black room that there is no escaping from How do you get out of there?

[your face]

shoot the grate until it dies.

[Repatition]

blackout isnt working on funobjectives sever! like Basilo said.

[A Spork]

haha yeah, Face, I think there should be something pointing that out ingame...Took me a while to figure that out myself...


Repatition: Basilo Said he couldn't figure out how to get out of the starting room, not that the map wasn't working on a particular server.
Server issues maybe?

[Basilo]

shoot the grate until it dies.

there is no grate to shoot. I can spawn as an alien but when i spawn as a human I end up in that room with a  telenode

this is wat we mean! i no about the grate but go too the server and spawn human!

[Basilo]

huh? 

[A Spork]

you get teleported out of there if you move, or if you wait long enough.

[Repatition]

when amp is working it takes you out of spawn room by teleport an into grate room. but its not woking

[A Spork]

Well then I'd say Amp is probably turned off or something.
Go ask the server owner/admins.

[==Troy==]

It seems that you are talking about slightly different server. FZ objectives was taken down once amp was released. That server could have installed AMP incorrectly.

[Basilo]

aparently it only happens with local servers, which is annoying because nobody ever plays the blackout server anymore

[A Spork]

Well that would be your problem.
You likely dont have amp on your local server.

[Basilo]

Once again, huh. I have no idea what amp is and if it is a mod, no idea how to make a server with a mod.

[A Spork]

AMP is a mod.
Blackout requires AMP to run.
No AMP= Blackout no worky

[your face]

AMP is not a mod.  I want to make that very clear as it seems a lot of people still think otherwise.

It is a completely serverside QVM and requires no downloads for it to function.  The only reason people may confuse it with a mod is because Blackout is a custom map that uses AMP.  AMP is the Advanced Map Patch, which allows mappers to be far more creative with default entities and allows many new and awesome opportunities for maps.

[Repatition]

and it should be implemented into 1.2!

Sorry, Patch, Mod, I get the 2 mixed up sometimes in this context.
Either way, it changes some stuff to allow more pro-ness in maps.

[Basilo]

But that still doesn,t answer my question.

[n.o.s.brain]

In order to run it as a local server, you will have to put this in /tremulous/amp/ folder (create the 'amp' folder in your tremulous dir) and then click on "mods' when you start trem, and select 'amp'. then you should be able to run your local server with amp.

[Basilo]

Now when i do that my game just freezes.

[n.o.s.brain]

Amp is approved to work with TremFusion™

[Basilo]

Great, great, do you want to hear my rants about tremfusion. The console, the fancy background, what does it even do?

[n.o.s.brain]

well, for one thing, it worked for me running the mod by following the above post on how to do so.

[Basilo]

oh yeah, and i can't build repeaters and can't get weapons other than construction kit. And how the heck do you open the console in tremfusion.

[DraZiLoX]

Tilde key...

[A Spork]

Basilo: tremfusion has far more capabilities thhan the default client.
If you cant even open console(which is exactly the same as in every other client), how the heck can you even get to these forums? seriously, learn to read man.
