Lance Pack 02 [BETA.1] + Optional Gamepack October fix!

[Kantham]

WHAT IS LANCE? (http://forums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=622920)

New MapPack.

The 2 new maps in pack 2, Featuring Crash - A unique map with terrain features that provide a more organic layout, lots of fun and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

For the second project, I had to cut down the map in size because it was far too large, I'm open to suggestion and if someone actually enjoys it that'll be for the better.

Right now there are only 2 maps. My productivity isn't lightning-fast and since this community is short on interest I'd rather provide it fast as possible. I will be releasing the 2 other levels eventually with the final release, I'm planning on bringing Sabek and Altar back in with some tweaks and atmosphere changes.

Optional fix is also available.

This pack was necessary for my personal use as too many things bothered me. I have done improvements like fixing the locust helmets (they had weird shadow lines caused by the normals) and one of the most noticeable fix apart the main screens and ETC is the new Baird skin.

This overwrites the Desert-beret-Baird. If you really enjoy that version of Baird and you are not too bothered with small details in the game right now, behind a 56k connection. I suggest you avoid this fix.

Again, optional means everything in the game is still functional either way and you do not need to download newer maps.

When asked to overwrite, click yes. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR LANCE.WAR

Oh I've been waiting for that map!

[Ramsh]

Just played both maps, great work. I can't believe how good the game looks compared to Gears 1,2 on the 360!

On construct, a lot of the bordering barricades, I can just walk right through along with a lot of other bblocks and materials and stuff.

[JUGGERNUT]

Ah, so if kantham copied and pasted, it had the blocking volumes go off a bit then... same thing happened to me when I copied and pasted courtyard.

Finally played both, nice works again!! Construct need more light, found some ceilings are too low, when you enter, it brings some trouble to over the shoulder angle view, the border buildings got some penetration bugs, we can walk through them, need fix, also hope add a spawn spot at that second floor for bots, at last need some cover at some corner spot, the overall level design is really great.

Crash brightness much better, add a little will be perfect, some border areas need some visible block objects, or the action will looks weird. Anyway this map%2

[JUGGERNUT]

Played crash, I think it's very well done and baird looks awesome, I just think the random ladder part is kinda odd though.

[Lambent Veteran]

Also, your ladder on Construct, I can't slide down it, I can only go up it.

[SPOONDIP]

just wanted to know when we can be expecting map pack 2 final?
and 3 lol
looking forward to playing your maps.
had something crash on comp so i reinstalled gears and am downloading LGE again. let us know whats up with your projects

[bobsanchez]

Just finally downloaded and played crash (I know a little late :o) and it was great!

[fastpunk]

Am I the only one here to find Construct the better map of the two? I mean, not in terms of graphics since Crash is quite exotic looking, but gameplay wise.

[bobfuria]

I downloaded the fix hoping that the beard bugs of Tai and Dizzy(I think that is the one with the hat) that at certain angles look fuc.ked up were dealt with. You have to select them and take cover without crouching and turning in all directions to notice. But it is a minor nuisance, this is an excellent mod and it increases replay value. The maps are quite good, thanks for uploading and taking time in this.



Sorry I can't post pictures of the issue at the moment.

[Portugueseotaku]

Is there any chance to make the bots work on the original maps?
