Old school jumping.

[leveller]

This message is only for ppl, who totaly rely on a savemod, to comlete a map.

Start learning strafe jumping, old school style (without save mod).

i have decided to make a new jump map. (could well be my last)

and to sort the boy's from the men,
i'm going to add a little script.

which basicly comes to this.

You can still save your position, but when you try to load it, you get kicked back to the start of the map,
so saving = useless. (fun!, no?)

I think i'm going to call the map "old_school"

[Ownia]

good idea
maybe allow saving but not reload + save(The way savejumpers do it) too fast if you know what i mean, cuz save mod is rather cool, when people are not abusing it

[Koekie]

ya, I like it
finishing a map on the cj server hasn't been so satisfying anymore since the savemod

[aicaramba]

What level of difficulty? knowing your maps its probably gonna be hard, right?

But its quite cool I'd say.
I wasnt around yet when there was no save mod yet, so its gonna be a new challenge for me

[leveller]

i think the level of difficulty, would be i think the same as bitch. maybe a bit harder, for there will be a few more trick jumps in the map.

i'll give you one little hint (suggestion), start practicing the "office building" chimney jump, in mp_neuville.

The mod would overwrite the map surely? Unless you somehow tell the mod that you are at a certain position... would like to see it

[leveller]

Your right, it did override the map, thats why i let a script scan the players origing with a .5 interval,
and let it reset every position to the start position.

I don't like it because I suck at strafe jumping no matter what technique i try. But I will at least give it a try. And then I'm sure I will hate it.

So basically your map script is faster than the mod script and every "saved_origin" is reset to the start?

[Nightmare]

wow, really clever leveller. I would like to try that map

[Pedsdude]

Sounds interesting. You would have to make sure that there were 'checkpoints' along the way - i.e. if you fall you don't have to go ALL the way back to the start, or if you die you don't have to start all over again. It's very depressing on mp_jump if you miss one of the hard jumps near the end and fall to your death

I think it makes it more exciting to complete a map without the save mod, but for those learning to jump it might put them off, and the save mod is a great tool to learn with. however, it would be fun to mix it up now and then imo.

[-venom-]

sounds like a good idea cant wait to try it out

[Dan2k3k4]

Use the cushion texture in common folder...

and whenever I get bored after completing a map I usually try to do it again without save mod (but I still accidentally save and load sometimes)

[leveller]

it's realy simpe acualy, the most inportant part of the script are these 2 lines

Code: Select all

wait .5;
self.saved_origin = ( (200, 200,8) );

Trust me m8, this isn't going to be a map, one would go and learn to jump.

This map is meant to seperate the boys from the men.
To show who is a real hardcor jumper, and who is just a save mod leacher. (lol no offence guys)

and yes it will have sections, i always try to build them in.

and Dan, i dont think you will get borred, you simply havend got the time for it.
