nice name

please put all the animations as high detail so that they dont show up if gfx_high_detail is off

okay, just the animations or also the stuff surronding it ?

all the background stuff would be best actually

allright

there are also some places around the map where freeze design is inside the tiles, not a big issue but removing those should help save some file size

All non-gameplay relevant decorations should be marked as 'detail' in the editor. Map credits are excluded.

Some Skip fixes (thanks to qed) and a lot of missing killtiles and stuff (thanks to Sorah)

rls when

after testing snail will choose a date 😄

fixed a a section where u can cheat with coordinates (thx qed)

too less poison and where is Magellan ? Why break in without break out ?

and where are the 4 beasts ?

this map misses a lot

agreed, where are the different layers

u should delete the kill tile at the wall and find a different way to force it cause there is not much space to spec at previous part and almost impossible to notice

should make this easier to get back, really hard without dj

move platform more to the left, when falling down u will bounce off of others and fall down

can solo it

I know, u can get dj on the right side 😉

please take a look again at that part where you wrote about making the platform longer. If

will make it longer then players will just fall to the wall and make a skip of the part at top.

fixed the stuff mentioned by

, excluding the platform

U could just put kill tiles at the wall or leave a gap at the platform but whatever

I understand what you had in mind. That worry about players failing like complete morons will be only their own fault. Please remember that instead of going down they all just nicely could wait for their turn on the platform on the right. When the time will be right they will have plenty of space when they will be jumping on platform from upper right.

ah, now i got u there 😄

unhook and hook repeats patter (blocks are same)

yep they are 🙂

where is lvl 5.5 ?

not releaseable

add snow in lvl 5 and do more details, like trannys in 5.5

its a mess

map looks so faky

can you please explain what you mean by that

?

I just saw the screenshots in here and 1 parts looks exactly the same like 1 from bit2, the rest also looks REALLY imitated

Okay look, the problem I have with this statement is that I am a comparatively new player and by no means know all the parts of every map. So it would be very nice if you could show me exactly which part you mean to shorten the whole thing here. Furthermore, I find it almost cheeky to say that the whole map looks like copied when you don't even take the time to look at the map. What I can tell you is that I created each of the parts myself. Only the start looks a bit like a Stronghold start, but that's because it worked differently in the beginning. I can show you how if you are interested.

you don't need to justify yourself just because silex wrote some random stuff

Oh, okay

@Deleted User it's not 'some random stuff' it is my serious opinion. Stop getting in between there if you don't even know what it is about. Imo the map isn't original at all and theres nothing really new to see.

• the mapname is nice but it is a waste if you keep the structure & design of the map like it is now.

It's random stuff unless you show some examples of copied parts etc. Mappers often copy parts of others and slightly change them. You shouldn't act as if your parts are somewhat special and not just reworked versions of existing parts. Of course parts look similar to others. Either give us some examples so we understand what you are talking about or accept that we don't need to listen to you too closely. For me you are just ranting because the map style is similar to yours. Feel free to do that but don't expect others to take you serious.

You judged the whole map just by a few screenshots, which is, at least naive.

I saw the map today, imo it's 75% uncreative parts, i won't make more than a few screenshots since i will not spend more time to that, everyone with a bit of clue about ddnet sees that this is not original at all.

1. basic throw in unfreeze and start hh down there, get a hook for help, same in arctic frost screenshot

2. use the freezed tee up there and edgehook him to get through 1x1 gap .. saw a billion times

3. little swing to get to the hammer of the other one .. couldn't find a map with this part but i'm pretty sure this is existing already exactly like that a few times

4. look at the screenshots of bit2 + adre3 and tell me it's not looking similiar

5. throw down in unfreeze, start hh .. original

that's the first parts of the map and they are already uncreative ... above all parts of the map they should be interesting/new/creative

/ thats not a bashing it's just my opinion.

1. basic throw in unfreeze and start hh down there, get a hook for help, same in comeback screenshot

Thank you for sharing some screens. Imo those were needed so we have something we can answer to. The stuff you wrote before was just ranting without giving a real option to answer. Often mapping means reworking existing parts, which i demonstrated here. Why is your rework okay but the rework of Zweitleben isn't?

I guess i can go through Bit and show some uncreative parts, too.

4. If you think those 2 of your parts look similar, you should ask yourself again why copying is fine if you do it, but not, if others do it.

5. Is interesting because you need a good swing to start that hh properly. It's not too basic.

the amount of people copying Stronghold by Silex is just incredible

had the discussion with you a few times already and i know i'm the winner lel

We know you are not

You know nothing noname

XDD

Please don't insult me

Haven't noticed it's welf yet?

i'm jkjk

how should i, i'm inactive as fuck in here, but good to know, even more useless now to go on with this discussion

you started this discussion with saying nonsense so it was useless from the beginning. i just explained why it was nonsense.

it's not nonsense, map is uncreative with nothing new, that's my thought's to it

can kinda cheat the thing in the middle with a high throw dont know u can keep it if u want

more than 1 guy here results in death which is bad for t0 map lol and not everybody is careful

Thats true, will fix it

$waiting

put 1 tile freeze here so aled nobos have something to do

entity off sign here

i think u can make this part more interesting

rechanged the mentioned filler

and fixed the design bugs from testing

$optimize

no marking for level 1 ?

one time you used 1x2 tiles and another time used 1x3 but cut a bit off

after consulting with the testing team i have to inform you that we don't accept intentional tile(death) skips

so just remove the deathtile ?

would be good to replace it with a stopper facing up because tees that fall in there could clog the hole and make people fail

or that

some tiny freeze corners in the HT ( found by Quix)

same as above

another good find by Quix you used two types of spikes with differnt colors

so one red always seems little bit off

freeze in ht again

and a bit of the background too

or more like 2/3 are missing it

well there are other HT with the same freeze bug i wont show all of them

$waiting

quick fix of it

The cut off one is a bug, should always be 1x2

sad, but in this case i will replace it with an oneway-tile

yep like this, same idea

ah, now i know for what u wanted to make an automapper for. In this Case it was intended to use silghtly different ones. If i cant do that, i will change it

you can ofc

design bugs

huge entities bug

seems like this part doesnt work well with weak hook

i think putting the freezed tee higher so that the hook gets longer should fix it

$waiting

not sure is it correct

use one design in all map ( spikes )

bruh $decline

start and endline are the way they should look like

corrected the missing edges

what a great map. but i consider it insane.

skip fix from qed

if you wanted to fix qeds little cheat wouldn't it be cleaner to just make the entire wall freeze ?

No i liked that, thats why i added freeze there so u can do it also without Dummy

🙂

oh ok well i think it just looks random now but that is fine

its near the start, so u will get used to it pretty fast

don't think anyone would try to tower that way but its ok

$ready 5

$optimize

$ready 5

map got updated

or wait a few minutes...

$ready 5

ok this one.. it was just some minor design fixes

Can u update it? im away till the end of the week

ok

logo is HD

And?
