No words, just...

I sincerely hope it will live up to the hype.
On a side note, when this projects done maybe getting around to fixing Harumaptura?
The map heavily favors humans and the scale seem blown out of proportion. Why are the ceilings that high, anyway?

About Ancien Remains : I was invited to the private test, and yes, it is as good as it looks like in this topic. There are some balance and FPS issues, but that was only the first beta, and DASPRID is fixing it for the next one. Anyway even the first beta is really nice.

About Harumaptura : Thats because the map wasn t made for Tremulous but another game. In the end DASPRID didn t released it, so he tried to compile it for Tremulous to see whether he could use it in Trem. It appeared that this was far from being perfect, but at least people liked it. Thats why he said he will tweak it for Tremulous (see the topic about it for the details).

I have a feeling that, even if the FPS and balance issues aren't fixed, people will still play the map for its awesomeness.

PS: make sure to add some sort of cliff things. Like in Blood Gulch for Halo 1 (if you ever played it).

[holyknight]

I'll play it even if it is really imbalanced Just for the fun of it

[Revenant]

Hehehehe. I bet you are having loads of fun with this .  Im currently in the middle of making a map for another game, using the exact same textures and a canyonish style I know how long it takes :S  Starting to get bored yet?

[DASPRiD]

I never get bored of mapping

[Ksempac]

I never get bored of mapping

!!!  :eek:

DASPRID, I will remember you this quote until you release A.R., Hamarunarapusnarustra (or whatever is it called ) and Delta Labs  :wink:

[Taiyo.uk]

Hamunaptra is released!

[whitebear]

Looks damn awsome.
Prepare for bombing of questions!
When do ya plan to release this? How much do ya think it's done? (20%? 40%?) And are you going to make some kind of building or wooden hut in there? Maybe a tree house! Is the tree going to have more than 1 layer of leafs?

[DASPRiD]

Omg so many questions? ;P

Well for the first two questions, join #DASPRiD's on Quakenet and ask there. Buildings inside on the terrain are not planned, also there isn't any space for buildings. And the trees have more than 1 leaf layer.

[DASPRiD]

By the way, I know that the latest beta has leaked. Please remember, that it doesn't have the state, which the final version will have, and that many things will still change.

[Predalienator]

Can someone give me the leaked beta?

[Exclamation]

This map looks great. I cant wait till its finished, finally something new.

[DASPRiD]

Alright, version 0.7 was tested successfully. Only small changes are remaining. So the plan goes ahead. I will do a (hopefully) final RC 1 test next Saturday. If this is going to be a success, you can expect the final release something around Sunday, 0:00 UTC.

[Xonya]

I honestly had no idea that you are making new map. A month I was blinded, caused by internetless sight... It was great to join testing group after I got my net back... :wink:

I really loved outdoor view. Really different than in any other map I have seen. Plants were fading... Trees.. Got almost killed by tube coz they are so hidden outside. And that lava spot Warm bath :D But imho buildings should also be damaged in the lava.

It is good that there isn't the one and the only good spot for base. Or maybe just didn't find them... Abyss spot with more basis for buildings would be almost invisible. But with aliens didn't try to build base there.. yet

Well, more comments later

[techhead]

The building-in-lava bug is a problem with the engine, not the map.
If you really want, put nobuild brush on top of lava.

[whitebear]

why not water with hurt brush?

[techhead]

But then you don't get the always funny "Unnamed Player did a backflip into the lava" message.
Besides, it doesn't always do the same damage.
Also, thermal has a 1 damage hurt brush inside, as well as a little above the lava.
Keep the jettards at bay.

[whitebear]

Well-placed no build would work too

[poto killer]

when is the beta or whatever it is coming out?

[whitebear]

When is Public version coming?

[Predalienator]

So is the map still alive?

[DASPRiD]

Sure sure, it's still there. The problem is, that my spare-time is very rare at the moment. So it can longer than promised. Sorry to you all.

[Predalienator]

But can you give me a copy of that map that some people got accidently.

[DASPRiD]

Even if you don't believe it, there are news:

Version 0.8 got tested today and people were still eek'ing on the map. I found 3 more small bugs, but after fixing them, the map is finish for release. Let's see if I can get it up until next Weekend.

[holyknight]

yay! Can't wait to freaking get it!

[AKAnotu]

I tested it, and its fun, except the temple is freaking dark and i cant see, and you can build in trees. FUN!

[whitebear]

*stars to dance*
Well it was long wait but i hope it's worth it.

[Thorn]

The caverns were not to dark !

[DASPRiD]

It's out

[Survivor]

Now derelict definately needs a fucking update. Get on hanky's ass dasprid >:E. Guess I'll be playing on your server for a while. And it actually got smaller since 0.6
