Glacier Flying is a great map but bugged to hell. However, there's a couple of other versions of Glacier around that aren't that bugged and could be the starting point for a "unbugged" Glacier Flying.

Of course the auto downloader would allow to spread a new version of Glacier flying individually but as it's an official map (introduced in 1.037), I feel that it should get an official fix. Yrr's levelRedit could surely help out if the level files aren't available.

Please consider this Smile. There are lots of talented mappers in the Renegade community that could probably make this map playable.

If we're including a new official map (City_2), we should fix the existing ones first. Half the reason Glacier has such a bad reputation is because it's bugged to hell, and that's why you hardly see it.

Agreed. There should be a fixed version of Glacier flying in the patch but that's a task for the community to create or to look for a good version of glacier flying and give it to the TT Team.

Does somebody have a good version of it?

GlacierTS is less bugged for sure but doesn't have flying IIRC.

You can download it here. If it could be tested and flying could be added to it?

I like this idea, I always thought Glacier was a fun map to play but the glitches really made it bad.

yeah

Glacier is the best map ever.. I dont know what you're all complaining about... Some people complain about low FPS but I always get a solid 60 no matter what the map is :S

Ever noticed the repair pad beams in the center of the map... you know, the ones that all the mines on the map appear on... (this should be fixed in 4.0)

RR server side seems to have fixed that.. I play on Atomix-Gaming where I moderate and we have glacier flying in the rotation and the mines no longer disappear into the snow and the beam under the bar near the stairway has disappeared.

I had a solid 60FPS with a 3100+ Sempron with a 5700Ultra... Dont know what the problem is with the low FPS.

Ive never had a low fps on glacier either, even though my computer isn't even decent. But everytime it comes on theres always a few people wholl complain so I dunno. What about glacier would even cause that low fps? and yeah that mines disappearing thing is goddamn annoying.

If you're going to do it I suggest starting from GlacierTS.. I made that version a while back when I decided having flying units on there was more of a pain than they were worth. If anyone wants to go through the trouble of adding in the ramps, feel free to do so.

I'd be happy if Glacier was fixed. However there needs to be a lot of work done on it, from balance fixes on the map, to changes in the map's VIS to improve FPS as well as VIS glitches on Glacier.

Considering we do not aven have a mapper on board, it's up to the community to provide us with a fixed version we should include..

I've never had issues with fps either...
Maybe you guys just get fps drops because on occasion servers have the mine limit up to 120, and then there are 120 mines on that repair pad beam, so when you look at it it causes lag?

Negative. It's totally random and happens on renfds 1.037 without any modifications. I feel it most often when flying. It's not just a drop. It's going from stable 60 to 30 at best.

I have never seen an fps drop on Glacier Flying so I have really no clue what it could be if its not what I previously said.

It only happens on a few computers...has been that way since day 1, which is why it's not played in clanwars.

I don't suppose anyone knows if the frame drop occurs when your looking a certain direction, or something like that? Or perhaps standing in a certain spot?
