Conquest Winter Readme

Author: SomeRhino

Setting:
Deep within the snow-covered mountains flourishes a new type of Tiberium; a species which contains double the amount of value when compared to common green Tiberium. It is apparent that blue Tiberium only grows where heat doesn't breakdown it's components. Both Nod and GDI desire to harvest the crystals.

Description:
Conquest Winter is a larger map with mountain passes, tunnels, caves, a frozen waterfall, a cottage, trees, bunkers, climbable mountains, blue tiberium, and much more. New buildings include the Communication Centers and the Repair Bays. With 5 months in the making, it is my most elaborate map yet.

The map has been optimized with vis culling rendering to bring the best performance possible.

Conquest Winter is FDS Compliant; it cycles with maps without crashing.

As far as I know, there are no known bugs except for the Nod Repair Bay disappearing from certain angles. This is apparently a vis error. I tried numerous times to fix it, but the error did not show up in Level Edit, so I couldn't. Just imagine that it's Nod's test on their stealth generator prototype...

If you do find any serious flaws, email them to me, and I may consider releasing an updated version.

Special thanks go out to:
Westwood Studios
Bumpaneer: Custom PTs and MCTs
AircraftKiller: Environment mapping tutorial and various suggestions
The dedicated beta testers: Adnecles1*, Aprime1, BigWig992, Diotle**, Imdgr8one, Majjin Vegeta aka DethMadx9, MeXadiaz, Sk8rRIMuk, SS3Vegito, Titan1x77, Triforce, and Yano7. Adnecles gets the asterisk award for most bugs reported. Doitle gets the double asterisk award for being forgotten as a beta tester in the readme.

I hope you have as much fun playing this map as I did making it. If not, then there's something seriously wrong with you...

This is by far the best map I've ever played. I suggest EVERYONE gets it, and gives it a go, it's INCREDIBLY good. Shocked

good map...did you send it to msgtpain from the pits?

I'd like to see this at renmaps so it will get hosted on the best server out there that happens to support fan maps!!

Using the repair bays, do you get the glitch that glacier has where the "arc" is at coordinates 0,0,0 and copies of all the mines go there?

I suppose one way around that glitch is to just make sure 0,0,0 is inside of a mountain or something Smile

IMHO, Rhino's are the best repair bays I have seen.

Yeah I agree they are good repair bays. Do they have the problem that conquest island had though? If you shoot it with a rocket based weapon you get something like 200 points per hit?

I would say it was the armour.ini but conquest island was a MIX format so I would have guessed it would have been the repair bays controller with some weired settings or some side effects.

Nice map though, can't wait to get this on a 32 player server and see the tactics people develop. I like the frozen water idea, it's different from any other maps i have seen. Good Job Very Happy

I think SomeRhino and Ack are the best mappers around. I would like to add my name to that list but I am not ready.

No, I made sure not to include this error again. The repair bay is worth less damage points than most buildings now.

I was wrong, ACK informed me it was the building controller rather than the aggregate. Mines go through the ground, unfortunately. They still stick to building interiors, however, so it shouldn't cause too many problems.

Wooo Double Asterisk award! Razz

I hope we start seeing some servers hosting this map as it is the coolest. I can't wait to try it 16 V 16 on a 32 persona server.

Yup excellent work. Send it to http://www.renmaps.com because thats an excellent map site and it's easy to find the maps you need. Also I like the rating system they have there.

I've played several times, throwing mines inside buildings and on the ground, and have yet to have one go through the ground.

I just played a 3v3 on it, it was one of the best games I've ever played. I can't wait to see it with 20+ players.
