natural selection

OK, Ive just started mapping for NS. My 1st map is progresing nicely, using those rockin NS textures.

The problem is, if Im on the alien team and I try changing to an Onos, I get stuck in the floor! There is enough room there for an onos. I even tried changing to onos in a default ns map, and it worked. So, there must be something wrong with the map.

Any ideas?

not that i can think of but it is not saprising considering when you actualy see them they are sort of in the floor :sad:

just make your room higher. 256 units tall I suggest.

maby you only have just anough you maight need to extra space

Have you compiled with the correct hull thing in your csg line?

From the mapping guidelines: "All NS maps must use the CSG switch "-hullfile <half-life path>/ns/nshulls.txt" when being compiled for player clipping to work properly"

kornflakes - yes, the room is definitely high enough. its atleast 512.

mr ben - i didnt know that, ill try it. thanks.

EDIT: yeah that fixed it. thanx

This is the problem that caused ns_nancy to be removed from NS. Another reason why I find it so horribly painful to see so many fanatic people trying to re-create a map that couldn't even be compiled correctly.

Yes, I'm still bitter about that one.

Jesus christ, I hate Oktagone

The site died while I was trying to post

And now we have this.

Words of wisdom: Oktagone = bad. Should rename it octa-gone since their servers seem to be "gone" 8 times a day...

Sorry for the quad-post.

Ooooh, imagine if this remake gets fixed and put back into NS. pictures KFS's reaction Better hope it doesn't :smile:

i asked gwil about this, he says its up more in the Uk than here :sad:

i was online with him in MSN and each time it was down for me, it was up for him, and when it was up, it was up.

i wonder, if the central US has a server hop issue, cause you are essentially due north from me.

this site has been down umpteen hundred times in the last month alone, and i am away days, so i can imagine how much its down for those who are on every day.

Are they still working on that Nancy remake? I thought they pretty much had it when I was last visiting the boards like three months ago. Nothing's gonna save that map though... it's just too much crap all around.

Why don't thy just make 'nancy2', using the same theme?

As for the downtime, I have noticed it to.

What "theme" would that be? I don't think I could ever bring myself to create such a monstrosity
