this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.tw/rules
insane 4* minimum?
nice
@PapotaV, fixed.
- put teleport to ground when you are alone
- changed the finish line so you need to be 2 people to finish.
no logo? washed up mapper
I am making the logo
you could just do hammer off
close it? well no reason to change it since it does the same as hammer off
okay
Added Logo (By Pipou) & replaced quads for tiles to reduce map size.
thats so cool
Yep,
@Pipouis the man. 😄
😄
that logo is so overpowered
i freaking love it
Aimazon
dope logo
U could put a green filter over the map to give a bigger matrix vibe
ye like this the logo looks out of place
What do you mean by out of place ? Do you mean the logo and the design don't fit together ?
Show me example? I'd prefare not to change too much to keep it as close to entities as possible. But I guess a green filter shouldn't change much
yes
the logo looks modern but the whole design looks 4 years old
I dont like it 😦
fair enough 😄
xDDDDDDD
now its 4 years older
looks like half life 2
maybe u can put the matrix letters in the bg windows or in the 1x1 holes of the unhooks
animated
noo guys i dont want any change -.-
everyone will play in entities anyways
Thats right
But this looks better 😁 I think too the original colors don't fit well here
Or try a shadow on the logo to make it darker
@Pipouadd some platforms on spawn so that i could be in a nice looking spot while watching people who can actually finish the map
I was only asked to make a logo relying on specific criteria. I won't do anything unless that's what Aoe wants
you could also make a fun area at spawn like in aimateur
@Aoetakes no effort and its nice to do
ye i wanna remake spawn
I am aware that the whole design would need a change to fit better but that's his mapping style and as he says, people use entities
It's only a logo in the end
xDDD yes so many opinions about it..
could proberly make it fit more with the logo if i changed the tileset to a cleaner one
Reworked spawn
not worth it dude, nobody will play it with design xD
i do
legend!
but it will look better on youtube videos
same
rule should be: if design is shit, just don't play the map
what about spectators? 😂
maan its fine, no need to change it 😄
the design cøke showed is gonna be a bitch to make in some parts and its gonna look weird
if someone wants to change it they can 🙂
use automapper
rls
!ready
can't wait to spent 3 days finishing it
33*
so i played through this twice now pretty good parts, also good balance no part stands out to be especially hard or easy release
Very good map, parts are creative, and something cool is that the map isnt too long, or too short, i think its a good balance:)
Old looked better
better colors but maybe change those nasty unhooks
just steal Binary design and it fits perfect
Hey little guy, we had a long talk, why are you being so cheeky again? I think u say this bcs I made the stones
Btw I showed him how to do it but he don't want it, he want it like this xd
I wont change the design anymore, there is way too many opinions about design & logo.
Removed some unfreeze & fixed a small edge skip
no I just think they're ugly, the contrast is weird and corners look messed up
If you need it to feel strong or whatever, why not. Many need something like that for their ego
But don't try to present it differently again, you like to do that very much
Cool map Aoe. Awesome logo, interesting and skilled new aim parts, nice startline, nice design (good color chose and mappres) you cant ask for more 😄 o/
Tbh i don't know how this map can be releasable with this design
That's the first thing I thought
yet I love this kind of map
I don't care if the community is ok with releasing bad quality designed map but this one seems like an exception, Aoe has been using this design in so much maps already
Not trying to make a drama ^^
I think it's better to keep it simple and clean than trying to do something that ends very messy
The design doesn't have to be "creative" - as it's often asked for the gameplay - and insane
A simple generic unhookable design can do the job
It's pretty good compared to most maps in testing
as u want guys
Is this a shitpost? :D
i mean he has a point it's just the same aim design
at least aoe is being environmentally friendly by recycling
but i agree with pipou as long as it's playable i don't see an issue
I made the aim design for a reason, to get it as close to entities as possible but I know that 90+% of players will go entities (including me). So I really dont care about the design..
Well it's his style I don't see what's wrong about it
I'd rather have 50 maps like that than maps like matinal which - despite being a good attempt - are unplayable
Like I said if someone wants to do the design they can go for it. If not it will stay like this or I might revert back to the old design.
If it wasnt an aim map I woulda spend time on design like Lockdown, but IMO it should be simple like all the other aims.
a classic aim design is just fine for another aim map, especially if the new tileset is not as nice as generic_unhookable
which tileset would you recommend
@Ravie?
generic_unhookable just like all aim maps xD
but the green bg color is nice tho
Changed back to generic_unhookable
but everyone claims its almost the same as regular ones lol
that hurt
He already got this edit from me xd
Didn't even know that he used in the last map sharp stones, bcs it's less work
Thats the one i've been using xD
lies
if u would compare these 2 side to side then u would see the difference
mine are much more shiny looking
it is different
it's shrunken
the white outline thing is also changed a bit
and tiles are rounder
let me feel like an artist pls
I think it looks shinier or smoother somehow
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I just found out this is a GIF image
looks very nice. small detail but round about looks great.
You washed the map too hot
gif compression sux

What's the current testing status of that map ?
Fixed a few stones in the background with Aoe's permission
ty!
didnt find any cheats
$waiting
eagle eye 😮
$optimize
$ready 3
2?
what would u think?
somnium is 1 star
and not that easier
imo 3
i mean its completely unfaily xd
ye?
aimateur is 4 stars
and its faily af
most people agreed on 3
somnium is way easier tho
$reset
$ready 3
all right
democracy
❤️
Ok the envelope which was removed is one of your start line or finish line moving envelope and the empty layer was the deep layer
should be good right?
i mean it said they were unused and empty
so should be all right
👍
Purple Panic on steroids, Anqel would be proud of you
@Aoe=]
i’d say 2 since it’s not faily😁
i'd say 2 since it's not faily😁
I'd say that we need a new server category since
We're lowering rates on maps
Everyone clearly feel that it is 3s, and aimateur is 4s
This is one sign from many
if we do that then we should also rerate every single map on ddnet xd
we still need to start somewhere
it can be done gradually
ofc it would take like 2 years and probably constant changing
but for once most of the ratings would be correct even if only for a while
i dont even think the amount or time needed is the problem xd (since it can be done slowly) more like the different opinions and the unforeseeable outcome are the problems and who gets to decide the ratings? only the testing team?
but lets not talk further in this channel
if u want to continue
FUCK TOU

Amazing map, my bot can't pass it
bots for purple panic series maps and 0 KBeeeR S series won't work on this one ^^
i'd say 2 since it's not faily😁
Tou
isn't ravillion 2*?
this thing is harder than ravillion imo
ravillion has been rated 3y ago
ye it would be 1* now
its 0.5*
hard map!
FIRST finishes on ravillion took xeno and n9 4 hours
who cares its 2 or 3 stars, it wouldnt be the first map that is badly rated anyways 😇
me waiting for sorah to tell us to stop using testing channels after a map has been accepted/declined
Shush don’t bring it to attention
stop spam for no reason
he literally dmed me to say not to thank louis for approving oldschool maps
look i found the perfect channel for you https://discord.com/channels/252358080522747904/252358080522747904 there you can keep going with your nonsense

@Tsin!
poor you 30 min after you planned it for release :(
$ready 3
ty for the ping updated
oh sorry I though that you always take map from test server before a release and check the discord if nothing major was not found (ofcourse this tiny corner was not important)
