Already jumped around a little bit in the beta1. I really would like to see it on a server...

Beta2 looks at first quite small, but i think its a nice improvement for more action.

You mean the cartoon The Mysterious Cities of Gold? Thats great

I remember watching that show when i was a little kid, with the golden bird like plane

You should incorporate the theme song somewhere, perhaps after the Allies got both objectives

Would be a nice map for PS5, go Seb go!

Exactly!

Great job, map making isn't easy job :wink:

I only hope the tunnels won't be too dark.

And that cartoon was great also. when i was a kid it was on Tv between Mutant ninja Turtles and Dragon Ball

I love the theme song.

by **Viduus** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 10:39

Wow, great job already. Looks very good.
Id love to play it.

So ps 1 or ps 3 give it a try :wink:

by **Arno** » Mon Feb 09, 2009 18:09

hey hey... I already played it

It's a funny + nice map but ..

It's very big that means u have low fps. Not only me had, whole server almost had. (about 20-40)

Hi all and thanx for your support

Yes warren this cartoon Mysterious City Of Gold.

Yes Daghel is too dark only on the screen on reallity light are good.

Arno the beta 2 is reduced map, and in this have fixed more as possible the fps. ex on me i have aprox 142 fps fast in total map.

On certain zone from map you loose fps this is weil you can seeing the total map this is the reason, and can not really fix this.

I have more structural brush on beta2 and on beta1 is more details brushs, and change on conpilation on vis creating.

If you need to change your fps edit your etconfig.cfg on etmain and in your profile directory. (need wordpad, bloc note etc...)

And shearsh the line to you have maxfps, in normal you have 85 change it and place 130 for example.

In my config i have modified to 130 and have aprox 142 in game.

I have planified one other version in night with more light in the city, and this is probably the last version.

I waiting for one to install the map on server and good fun for all.

if u have maxfps 130, then it cant go 142. and i advise to use maxfps 125 (most stable)
anyway nice map :good:

by **Necromancer** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 1:58

Hi all,

Thanx diamon i have modified this to 125 !

For players are not playing on the beta1 i found one server :

*Snap*

I job for the moment on the night version from the beta2, normally this version comming this week.

I add light in the city, and change the sky (same on goldrush map).

Good night.

Maccupiccu beta 2 is currently in rotation at PS#5, so check it :wink:

Map is cool, great job Necromancer.

The only thing i didnt like was the stairs. When i took obj. as non-medical class i always died or loosing 90% of hp while runing down. So maybe add a constructive rope/ledder on the back of moon/sun pyramids.
More tunnels, secret chambers will be nice also, only an sugestion :wink:

Hi all,

Thanx Daghel for playing the map on ps5, i will check next day.

For ladder construction i will seeing on the beta3 was i can make.

Actually i job on the beta3, for installing escorting truck, i make it and tested and works 100%. Only problem is the construction crate is only invisible (and i have not found why).

Please be patient for the beta3, i have planified heavy change on it.

I post new tread on the beta3 on techzone when is done.

Thanx to all for playing the map.
