Looks really good....please keep us informed on progress of this map or if need a beta testing done on it, we be glad to help. Ace Out

As cool as it is I don't see it being very playable aside from maybe S&D since it's just a straight shot...

Have you considered placing the sub in a repair lock or something and building a shop around it, even if it's a small one? That way there would be more of a level to play in and it would stop people from standing on one side of the sub and spawn killing the other with a bolt action.

Eh, just an Idea. I love the detail though. I'll keep my eye open for it for sure.

a swimming script is very possible. matter of fact, it's probably out somewhere. I already have an idea of what to do, but my scripting skills are less than excellent. I'd imagine the player losing the guns right as he steps in, then a wooshing loop sound as he swims, however, the float part would be kinda tricky... I'll see what I can(or can't) do.

here's what I got so far, it's not much, but it's a start.

main()

swim_FX()
{
level.player=getent ("level.player", "targetname");
enter.trigger=getentarray ("water", "classname");
while (1);
{
enter.trigger waittill("trigger");
level.player takeallweapons;
}
}

I don't know how to temporarily take away the weapons, but I think that might give them back. try it out and post back.

here's a second attempt:

main()

swim_FX()
{
level.player=getent ("level.player", "targetname");
enter.trigger=getentarray ("water", "classname");
if (player.level ("trigger")enter.trigger);
{
enter.trigger waittill("trigger");
level.player temptakeallweapons;
}
}

I tried that script, and apparently there's no function "temptakeallweapons." I looked in the docs folder and all I could find was "takeallweapons". I tried some other things and all I got were compile errors and unknown function errors. At this point I don't think it's worth the trouble.

I just added the exterior of the uboat to the downloads section as a prefab, if anyone's interested. I figured with all the time I spent on it it shouldn't be constrained to just one map. I might add the full boat with interior later. Hope you enjoy it.

Cheers

Here's a video I made of the inside of the sub. I'm working on a harbor map for it, so I'll post some screenshots of that later.

Awesome job on the interior details, the whole thing looks amazing. I liked the animated engines and the open/close hatch too.

However, I can't really see it being very playable. Sorry, but even with a harbour complex, you are still gonna get campers, hiding in the boat.

Again awesome looking map, but I think at the end of the day its gonna be more use as a testament to your obviously impressive mapping skills, rather than a good MP map, but I'd love to be proved wrong.

Failing that, how about implementing this into a SP map?

I tried to make the harbor so the sub is not central to the gameplay, so there may not be too much of a problem there; the only way to find out is to test it.



It would probably make a great sp map, however I've never even tried sp mapping, so I really don't think I'd be up to it.

Thanks a lot for the comments - helps a lot.
