What map ISN'T too dark for you? :S :D

[darksin]

What map ISN'T too dark for you? :S :D

U can check Jugger's dark series Lg maps, for not dark version , u can check Sporting's horde ravendown remake... :D

[JUGGERNUT]

I blame the post process settings, they lied to me! Seriously, most maps aren't even close to dark if you turn post-process to mute

[fastpunk]

@darksin: Thanks for the feedback! I've done a few fixes here and there and final release of Sanctuary is coming next week. I'll try to do Courtyard, it's a nice map. And Mausoleum, cause I really love that one. Actually, I think I'll release them together, no use spamming the forum.

As for RavenDown, I won't release that one if Juggernut already put a release out.

Peace!

[darksin]

Thx fastpunk for all your great work!!, still many mp have no lance version like above court, Mau and swamp, tyrostaiton, meseum, process, etc, some others botted before. Good luck man, no doubt another happy year because of these new bot maps, even no Gears 3 pc again...:D

Courtyard isn't a great map. Layout is somewhat poor.

Swamp(Bullet Marsh) I can hardly see where im going on that map

Tyro I'm not sure would be suitable for bots as if they ended up on the train part they'd just get squashed and even if u removed the train they would be walking around in confusion on the track

Museum (presuming thats Old Bones) would make a pretty decent map for bots.

But if you like playing bots so much, why not just play MP?

[darksin]

Oh, and rooftop too:D
Because i played UT mp and found no fun like offline wth bots, lag and no good mods, mutators, etc, Gears too, mp has no new models and custome settings,
so more mp convertion more good. Some mp already changed to Horde and lance, really fun gameplay, but maps like above nobdy touched before...

[fastpunk]

Small update: LGE Courtyard is almost done. I just need to adjust spawn point location to ensure that it plays well. And I also took the decision to remove the Hammer of Dawn from this map, it makes winning too easy a task. The problem is the AI, it doesn't react to the satellite beam. I've hammered bots standing a few meters away from me and they just don't care.

Next up is Mausoleum, and then I'll release all the maps I've ported, either separately or in a pack. Cheers!

[JUGGERNUT]

I made it dark and rainy (http://www.moddb.com/games/gears-of-war/downloads/lg-darkravendown).

Uh, looks sexy! Also, the three perks part sounds interesting. Will definitely check it out.

Hehe, I had some fun playing around with it, and all of the secrets are in that small lit room, sadly nobody seemed to comment on the map about that... rather the feedback I got was similiar to ....

Hahahaha, priceless!

[Sych0n0ught]

Looks cleaner then the actual map.

Nice!

OH NO，my new TDM mod is dead again,
RIP...

but i 'll make a new project once again,

/sarcasm xD:D

[Serenius]

This is why we can't have nice things, guys. :(

Thanks for taking the time to port the map, Fastpunk. :)

Unfortunately, I can't seem to be able to play the map. Whenever I load it the music starts playing but the screen is completely black. Basically, it's...

TOO DARK™

But seriously, this was made for Lance Gold right? Not for Elite.

[JUGGERNUT]

TOO DARK™

Noooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Haha, yeah, it was made for lance gold, so you would need the lg_gamepack.upk..... you could download my parkcadebrigade pack (http://gearsforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=716434), which is a map with lance versions 1,2,3 and gold which also includes the gamepacks for each of those lance versions!

[shooter19]

/sarcasm xD:D

Touche :D

the package opens when i open the map but not on its own :S

[darksin]

Actually i hope dear fastpunk can do lance all version like JUGGER did before, if possible....
love lance 2 more, it's team death match , not survive mode..:D

[JUGGERNUT]

As soon as the editor started crashing every conversion, I pretty much abandoned ship on converting multiple maps to every version. At some point I should release some sort of ultra-mega pack, which includes lance 1,2,3, and elite (can't quite remember if lance gold is unique or the same but with less improvements than elite, so unsure about making lance gold version).

I was planning at one point to bring a storm-pack, with 4 maps being for lance elite, but with all 4 maps being made dark and rainy, and hearing about fps issues, I decided to hold off on it.

[fastpunk]

Actually i hope dear fastpunk can do lance all version like JUGGER did before, if possible....

For now, only Lance ELITE is on schedule. After I finish with the current crop of maps I'll start working on an original, and probably release that for both GoW MP and LGE.

[darksin]

That's awesome men!!, good luck to both of you, if no more new Gears title come to PC, then you guys will save us for one more year, 08-11, :D

i think no need for lance 1, too low kill limit setting, lance 2 enhanced lance1 and plays more like official and stable, many people make maps for it before, still play them now. Lance Gold is survive mode, only Jugger and Theron made maps, now Fast is coming...

[fastpunk]

I added Canals to the map list. So, currently I have:
- Canals
- Courtyard
- RavenDown (I'll release it after all, since Jugger's map is quite different, this is just regular ravendown)
- Sanctuary

And today I'll work on Mausoleum. Release date: sometime this weekend.

[darksin]

Any chance remove kill limit as well?...:D Canals did before too, waiting for original Raven and Mau. Sanc plays really good...

Cmon you're basically saying remove any form of an objective, which will make it somewhat boring. You gotta have a goal!

[fastpunk]

I agree with shooter19, the respawn limit is there for a good reason. So for now there are no plans to remove it. Maybe later, after the release of the current maps.

I think his goal is to play all the lance maps ever created... FOREVER!

LOL

Sitting there with about 25 computers on at once all with different lance maps open, whenever he gets bored of 1 map he goes to the other PC

[Serenius]

You gotta at least admire his overwhelming love of the pure act of shooting and moving around cover. Some people like variation in their game play, the rest play Call of Duty.

[darksin]

COD is not fun, no mods and fully bots support like UT, if a game can customize any limit like UT, then no doubt we will play forever,

Already played UT for 10 years, and when future UT 4 comes, will continue play for sure. Gears too....;)

I think your goal is waiting Gears 2 PC ...FOREVER JUGGER!...:p

Yeah all the call of duty games are pretty much the same with reskinned guns and slightly modified killstreaks...

[JUGGERNUT]

Hahaha, it's true, oh it's so true!

[fastpunk]

Small delay for the release of the map pack. I still need to make some adjustments to Mausoleum. So I'd say tomorrow is the day. E-day, as GoW fans would say. ;)

What a nice little poem you got there :D

[fastpunk]

Well, I meant for the last part to rhyme... but you just made it better. :D

haha :P
rhymes ftw

[darksin]

Waiting for E day, thx man for the great pack!!, :D just played TDM courtyard, really tough battle....
