I noticed some asshoIe modified my map (scorpionrace) again and released it as scorpionrace2-overload or something like that

its really pIssing me off so here is my official scorpionrace2 version (still beta of course)

a lot of people said scorpionrace was too easy so I made it harder, scorp2 is the skilltrials of racing maps

obectives are the same as in scorpionrace I will change them later, I want to finish the track first

track is unfinished too but its already kinda long

:bulb:

:cry:

hehe following suit are we?

remember to delete ALL BRUSHES so that if they build all the level will be gone :up:

**legacy-supernewbie** · 07-05-2004, 12:19 PM

did that

**legacy-DarkLaser2150** · 07-05-2004, 12:35 PM

Ok, these maps are getting boring, i think you need to do something else to them, for starts, learn maya! and make som cool static mesh tracks! then you would have something to look at.

**legacy-Kerensky** · 07-05-2004, 12:49 PM

Not too bad, but it SHOULD give you warnings of an obsticle, expecially on the super-long and straight tracks.

**legacy-Phantomdream** · 07-05-2004, 01:04 PM

I played this online a bit and it was stressing, ill practice offline around now.

Edit: Okay, so now I've played it and I must say I like it! Very nicely done. you say you were able to do a loop though and I want such a thing in the game. If you can make it work. I think I died around 5 times (though I jumped out and pressed fly to shorten game time)

I can see that the last objective needs work, you probaly got some ideas for it.

Edit 2: I see you posted beta 2 already...I played it and died 6-7 times. Very annoying last part, ot confuses the hell out of you. Lame how you then end up finding out you didnt need the platform and then jumping to the moving one, falling off <.< the last part must be made bigger too, it's too short.

for the rest, I love the sideways gaming although the camera is very ****ed about it.

You're saying you can delete all the bsp brushes after rebuilding for the last time and the level will still play. That works?

**legacy-Phantomdream** · 07-05-2004, 06:49 PM

He emans that you can delete all brushes after rebuilding, then saving it. It won't take away anything, just make the map unchangeable :P.

**legacy-Mr_Caravaggio** · 07-05-2004, 07:05 PM

But not with static meshes or lights or anything like that...

**legacy-Meroin** · 07-05-2004, 10:16 PM

You can delete those too

Plus, are there more than 5 static meshes in any racemap? :P

(besides the asteroids, I was exaggerating)

**legacy-Major Lee High** · 07-05-2004, 10:21 PM

Why make maps look like ****?

Its not that hard to make them look good, make some nice path meshes, some lighting, skybox and effects etc arnt hard.... even for newbs. With all the updates etc to the others you could have easily made them look realy good.....

Skilless crap is all it is, that for some unknown reason is played more (for all games) than the maps that have real time and effort put into them.... Even if someone did take the time to make one of these maps that was really badass looking i bet noone would play it online (could probably use the same layout and everything), there is some sort of retardation in the people who like these maps that doesnt allow them to enjoy a good looking map.

:down: :down: :down:

Funmap = noob shlt map that sucks ass.

Also, LOL@ Attempting to prevent people from rebuilding your hard work into other **** maps.

Nice post

If somebody really made one of these maps look "good" (by your almighty standards), it would be less playable due to the sheer amount of decor needed to fill the whole map, it wouldn't increase play value, and it would just plain get in the way. Why make it look good when its play value makes up for it?

Trust me, I enjoy a good looking map, I am just sick of all these industrial themed maps, since one is just as good as the other in my opinion. As long as the map is fun (hence the name), it's good enough for me and anyone else who isn't too busy *****ing about it on the forums.

Now excuse me while I go play a good round of SR2

**legacy-Phantomdream** · 07-07-2004, 04:22 AM

If one wishes a good looking and fun (though stressingly hard) racing map, download Derby by Scrivster. It looks nice and if you thought this one is badassly hard (which it is, nice layout and good stunts!), that one tops it by far. 28 MB download for a reason, and a skilltrials type of system with levels of hardness. 9though the second is referred toe asier then the first level, and 3 is the hardest, 4 had bugs).

Meroin, I, however, agree that playability comes before good looks. sure, the scorpionrace just are below standards but FU (AKa supernewbie) knows that and before long he will probaly put a nice little skin to it and allow it to look pretty. I'd say a mysterious, asian theme would be rather new and unused. Try playing Final Fantasy X at the later regions and try that.

camera gets stuffed at one point. if u want i think i know someone who can build you a custom vehicle for this! (make mantarace, someone has, but looking at your racemaps you can do better)

DO NOT LOOK[ThEpErSoNiSwIcKeDpEnGuIn]DO NOT LOOK

**legacy-Loggy** · 07-08-2004, 02:01 PM

Great fun well done

, i played the first scorpion maps then the skill trials maps and thought the two would mix well and here it is .
If i could map i would make these types . :up:

No, don't delete StaticMeshes, they will disappear the instant you click Delete.

Anyways, SuperNewbie, you have raised the bar and done what countless other have tried to do without success: Horizontial gravity. To date, nobody has succeeded in ever making this work, but you have. Although the first was plenty fun, I must say that this is much better. I like how there are no more square corners, and the thinkness of the pathway somehow makes the map look more solid. Although the obstacles are more difficult, they are much more creative, preserving the novelty of the map. The fog is something I wanted since the beginning, not only does it increase playability, it also tends to keep you focused on yourself, not to mention it just kind of adds to the feel of the map.

SuperNewbie, I salute you!

**legacy-Phantomdream** · 07-08-2004, 04:06 PM

I've read pof people who wanted to make that and the problem was the fov, not that the gravity didnt work. It had to do with that you cant rotate a players sight. You might notice the hard and a bit buggy camera on those parts.

It looks more solid by that,t hanks for showing that to me. you're very right.

The roundness just makes it feel nicer, which alters the way it's played quite nicely, which I like.

do you find it strange that creativity hightens? The first was a test, this is result. The fog stops people from sniping. this map is now fully racing and no more fighting and it makes better fps AND looks at the same time. Although still the map looks like junk. but like in other threads I attended to, I belive gameplay is much more important.

try again :noob:

**legacy-Towneh** · 07-14-2004, 06:52 AM

I play this map in first person view mode, much more fun, so I don't see any camera problems myself.

Good job on the map though supernewbie, quite challenging.
