This map was originally made for the Starwarsbattlefront.filefront.com Winter Mapping contesnt '09


This version (1.5) has an improved environment, new skins, and a couple new models...

The sides play like stock, the only changes I made to gameplay were in the Heroes.

The force powers mostly are less spammable, it takes longer to use it again, but AI usable as well.


The rebels will appear to use random playermodels, unless a client in multiplayer.





Further Plans:

Add some caves. A similar outfit as Luke for Anakin.





Install:

Oh yeah, I forgot to say in the readme,
The starting Cps are random, Rebels might be team 1, or team 2.
In MP, clients may or may not match up. It will still work, but some clients will be very confused as to what side they are on.

Unless you install this patch.

http://www.filefront.com/16316423/POK_MP_Patch_1.6_fixed.zip
To install it, unzip, backup the mission.lvl in Gamedata/Addon/POK/data/_LVL_PC and replace it with the unzipped one.

This should not affect Single Player at all, but in Multiplayer, the sides should no longer be random, so client confusion can be fixed if host and client install this.

Enjoy

Looks good! Like the idea of random starting cp's although it may get rather uneven....unless its just random team setup.

[kinetosimpetus]

Its like ALL = math.random(1,2)
IMP = 3-ALL

I want to know, is there a way to preven this in MP, but keep it in SP?

[impspy]

Try this:

Code: Select all

if not ScriptCB_InMultiplayer() then
ALL = math.random(1,2)
IMP = 3-ALL (or whatever your code is)
else
end 

and also:

Code: Select all

if ScriptCB_InMultiplayer() then
ALL = 1
IMP = 2
else
end 

I'm assuming that your code randomizes which team is 1 or 2.

If not, just put the:

Code: Select all

if not ScriptCB_InMultiplayer() then

else
end

around your random cp code.

[kinetosimpetus]

Ahhhhhh.
Yes, thanks.

[impspy]

Ahhhhhh.
Yes, thanks.

No problem

I hate to say this.. but the POK.lvl is broken. No cp's...

[kinetosimpetus]

That is strange... the POK.lvl or the mission.lvl?

I guess I'll have to download it.

[skelltor]

wow that looks great if you would be ok with it can i use this in my mod (just add my units to it) idk how you would feel about that but i just thought i would ask. whatever you say i hope you can feel comfertable with it.(sorry if this brakes some rule or just is not in good taste)

[kinetosimpetus]

Sure, you can add units to it.

How big is the POK.lvl?

The original one for me is 58608 KB

[skelltor]

can i release it after i do like as an optinal "if you have this map you can play my mod on it also kinda like you know the maps in bf0 or somthing.if so thx a ton i needed some snowy ice maps:)

Same size. 7z said that the file was broken when i was extracting it.

[kinetosimpetus]

And ingame there were no CP's to select?

I'm downloading it now so I can see if it is the upload that is bad, or the download.

Yes.

Ok. i'll keep checking here.

Yeah, I think so. Like in your addme, check for one of my files, if it exists, add a mission to it?

[skelltor]

umm i am not sure how to do that. But with my other stock maps (and hopefully other custom maps) i add a map to the addon not an era so ppl can still have other mods like bfx or stuff. My idea was in a new maps lua to referenec your map.
