what do you think this is all about?Mora wrote:What if we make that map down-loadable as a extra. So not everyone needs to download it only if you really want to play it. Could that work?

If we are going to use mappacks, let's change the message you get when you're trying to load a map you don't have:
"You don't have this map. It might be available through a downloadable PR mappack. Go to realitymod.com/maps to see if this map is available for download."
And also change the image that appears (that satellite) when you don't have the map. Replace it with something else?

Tested it today(well as much as i could with just me) and its a good map, but is there a way for only that map to have a lot more tracers?? If not ignore, but the major problem being the glowing stuff, but aside from that, if you could make all the vehicles have the BH NVG would be good(dunno if thats a NVG thing though) ASIDE from that, didnt see anything particularily wrong with it, its very cool driving around at night, can just imagine it being with 63 more people, unfortunately didnt get into a plane or anything, but they could be absolutely devastating!! All in all, i would say, good map, but really need a 32 at least server with it up to test it fo real

Well.. then we first need to have a map that doesn't crash on a dedicated server eh? I tested this map on a Linux dedicated server, but I CTD'd every time. Someone else has to test this as well, because I don't know if it was my client or the map. Local server works fine, dedicated = crashTheScot666 wrote:Well if you get a dedi one, say a time and place, get willing volunteers, and we can test the hell outta that map! would love to test this map!! btw forgot to add, that smoke grenades will now play a huge part,as at night its black, just solid black going up so can now be used as cover!! took some screenys which ill post up if you want

I just tested it with alex6714 on hamachi works good. Only the tanks and other objects glow. but i think you already know that... I know hamachi is not a dedicated server but maybe it will help in somekind of way. Ive also noticed the view distance is very low did you do that on purpose? Its also very hard to fly high now as you can not see the sky very well. and the NV is also weird when you hop in the chopper with NV on and when you turn your NV of in one of the cams (being gunner) your black-white screen will be green, witch is good because its green irl

I can join without problems and the map works fine. 
Have tested a few graphics settings, all work.
Unsure as to what the problem could be.
Also,
The gun effects appear in front of the chopper. Minor "bug".

Turning night vision off and then on while in gunner cam mode makes it green.

Looks more like a real FLIR now.
Maybe something similar can be done in day games to represent this?
Also, view distance is too low for helicopters.

My editor? Lol, of course not
.
I don't feel like reinstalling to be honest. -Everything- works, except this map, which is possible, since the night shaders are a bit messed up in 0.7
.
Besides, if I create a local server, it works just fine, lol. Weird huh..
