Fixed custom music not working correctly
Ok, finally updated :D
It took longer than I envisioned as I had problems with textures etc. But hopefully its all good now. Let me know if there are any problems and I will do my best to fix them.
Soooo, changes:
-Made Versus mode easier (hopefully) - reduced life on Tikimon, reduced life on Ripper Roo, reduced zombies, reduced life on robots on level 2, and overall just tried to make it easier. Without a full team on both sides to try it on, I don't know how balanced it is. So any feedback on the versus side is welcome.
-Made campaign easier somewhat - reduced life for Tikimon and Ripper Roo, reduced zombies here and there slightly, removed a few scripted specials. Tweaked here and there.
-Made it so custom sounds work (at least they do for me, let me know if they don't but they should do now).
-Hopefully enabled textures on models to work too, as for some reason, I had real trouble getting them to work again (mainly because I used to use Pakrat, so now I had to mess with the directory etc).
-Fixed miniguns disappearing and thus leaving the player stuck. (This was originally made to make it more difficult, but with that odd glitch, I removed it now so they stay, enabling Tikimon to die easier.)
So, I will be touching up the L4D2 one as well and hopefully both of these campaigns will be as good as they will be.
Send any feedback as soon as possible, as I do not know if I will be able to work on them in the near future after this week.
- Finale difficulty ramped up but not in a way that will make it irritating.
- Tank cheese strategy where you can ignore the tank and collect gas safely is now fixed/countered by spawning common infected every time you collect gas.
- Glitch fixed where the police car can still be activated if someone is incapacitated inside the police station. This would cause the finale to break.
- Removed the ladder off the army truck with the minigun. Simply jumping on the truck is faster.
- Optimization: Added Ragdoll fader to finale area. This will improve the framerate by ridding of ragdolls quickly.
- Added 3 more songs, Portal Still Alive, All I want for Christmas, Re Your Brains to the Nightclub. (For now a total of 5 random songs)
-Changed the Circuit breaker model in map 3 in the tunnel to the breaker from HL2. Since the other model is deeply associated with panic events. Which is not the purpose of the breaker.
PROS
update 5/24/2011 v.9
- cool custom textures.
- maps are still great
- i love the new add on's for all the maps
- finlale 100 times better
- bot nav very good
- gas pump dont go boom bots cant f... you over more then normal.!!!!!!
I love the new camera angles when you finish this campaign, It's better than before :) On a sad note I do not like what you did with the security gate by the stairs, i loved opening it and hearing a different gate sound, I also am not happy with the room where you get ammo and weapons, it feels too wide and there shouldn't be four medkits if you already get 4 in the room you start in. Other than this the changes are great and I do not agree with what RainingMetal says at all.
- Al checkpoint exit doors now have bars.
- Checkpoint exit fixed on map 3 for versus.
- More pills added to map 2 and the finale.
- Versus score modified for map 2
- Nav cleaned up a bit more.
- Added a microphone to the club on map 3.
- Made the HL2 trainseats on map 2 unique named to avoid conflicts with campaigns using the same model.
and other various small things not worth mentioning.
Ever wondered how L4d2 gascan scavenge would play out in l4d1? Now for the first time you can! Experince the versus and coop Scavenge finale in the original game. Complete with a unique animated police vehicle cutscene!
