Bad map at Hook's redeemer server

Post by a nameless entity » Mon Aug 23, 2010 12:15 am

I must report that the map Jump City has a very nasty and huge bsp hole in it. It is the whole length of sidewalk around the outside edge of the map in the area at one of the four corners where there is a pair of thigh pads at street level, and some green body armour suspended in the air directly over the thigh pads.

If you step onto that section of sidewalk, you fall off of the map. And you fall a very very very long distance down.
It gets worse. Once you are down there, your game starts to screw up in weird ways. It almost locked up on me completely at one point, and the only way I could get back to the game was to -once I was able to- disconnect and then reconnect. When I fell down there yet again, I was only just able to escape before things really started to get weird again by suiciding.

This is not good. I suggest that this map be removed and repaired, or just removed. :|
I'm a man........but I can change........if I have to........I guess

I will check JumpCity out for sure! - Thank you for Bringing this to my attention Nameless! :wink:
This map used to play very well.
I noticed that this map was uploaded along with another small group of maps that some of which were/are corrupted.
This MAY be the case with JumpCity - not sure.
This map was made back in late 1999 and was released Jan. 3rd of 2000 by a very good mapper back in the day and he was also the very first UT friend I made online.
His UT name was Gator (aka Carey Grayson) and he had a small site (one of the first for UT) for his maps hosted by Unreal Planet.
His UT site was called "Gator's Bad House" and was the first site I frequented back in 1999 - 2000.
In any case, I will look at JumpCity and re-upload it if it all looks good.
Otherwise, I will fix it if possible first.

Thanks again Nameless!

PS: I noticed that last night (Sunday 8/22/2010) there was a good crew playing on CLD - CROSSBONES Lucifur's Den.
Six (6) players at the time I looked. WOW :o

Yep - DM-JumpCity was corrupted.
I will fix and/or re-upload it when I get time.

Thanks for the feedback - it really helps us server admins! :wink:
