It's pretty sad to see custom maps basing all their "strenght" on visuals... especially since it's a ten years old game, I doubt that eyecandy junkies are still around this engine.


I'm thinking of writing a bit of feedback for each map, but I'm wondering if it will be appreciated or just seen as flaming. Are you interested in some constructive feedback, Creavion, or do you just want people to praise the pack?

Actually, Creavion didn't want to flame. He only wants to say that the whole pack and further releases from ut99.org contain the UT3099 pickups. It's a personal opinion if you like the new pickup system or not.
I would appreciate every feedback I could get :)

of course you can say what you think about that. Say what you dont like and if possible say what we should make better.
We already got feedback from Revelation (60 % for the complete pack) for example and you know he is one of the best and mostly gives the hardest criticism.

Read it if you like. Altough his review also includes a lot of "not my taste" he also gave us some important hints.
And really everybody knew what would waiting for him if he would download our pack. We announced that features early enough.

Dave: Yes at least one person understood what I meant. :o

If we're being technical, it wasn't called UT1 either :wink:

To stop name bullshiting, its actually called Unreal Tournament.
Fucking nitpicking, UT99, UT1 or simply UT, we all know what is meant, no?

it's entirely possible that people criticize or dislike something even if you spent a lot of time and effort creating it. you can either use the criticism and try to improve on it, releasing patches and addons, or you just leave it be and accept the fact that there's people who don't like your pack. you did a fine job, and if you want to appeal to a wider mass you may consider making new versions of the maps which address the issues some people pointed out to do an even finer job. if you disagree with the criticism, just leave the pack as it is! can't please all the folks. easy as that. :shy:

oh, and my apologies that I haven't posted news of the SP map on the main page. I've been to Berlin for the last few days and now the anniversary contest just commenced, so I'll let the news sink in for a bit before posting.

You may also wait for the patchpack, which will come very soon ;). It contains an improved and bugless version of the map.

Actually I wanted to wait until beyondunreal would finally host the patch but for some reason, nothing happens there, either they are extremely busy or .. whatever.

This sucks! A patch for a map-pack? Yes, you're right,
but some bugs in the XPickups system and in some
of the maps have made the development of this patch
necessary. Our apologies!

To cut a long story short: This is not a complete
map-pack, but a patch for the UT99.org CMP2, also
adding 2 new DM maps: Arctic Decay to show off the new
Double Speed power-up and Compressed 3 as an extra
to spice the patch up a bit. Also it fixes some bugs
in other map files and the XPickups system.

NOTE: This pack requires files from the original Community Mappack 2 to work!

Here's the changelog:

XPICKUPS

- Generally optimized net performance and fixed bugs
- Added new pickup: Double Speed
- Added XPickups mutator so the new items can be used in every custom map
- Added custom arena mutators: X Sniper Arena, X Shock Arena and X Rocket Arena, all using XPickups weaponry
- Added Berserk support for custom weaponry, not by doubling the firerate, but by doubling the damage
- Added full custom weapons support (but only for pickup chargers, weapon lockers will still
show the listed weapon meshes, but it will give the mutated weapons)
- Added special support for the Rocket-X mutator/gametype (just set bRXMode=True in XPickups.ini)
- Added Jump Boots counter (now you can see how many jumps you have left)
- Jump Boots jumps are now acumulative, so you can get up to 15 jumps by collecting more Jump Boots
- Fixed rotation rate of custom weapons online
- Weapon lockers now support 4 teams
- Fixed BattleSuit power loop sound issue
- Fixed bWeaponStay for SP (but only in the pickup chargers, in Single Player bWeaponStay is
ignored in the weapons placed alone around the map)
- Fixed Accessed:None errors in the Weapon Locker
- Fixed WearedOffEvent and DroppedEvent triggering (they were both triggered at death)

- Added special XPickups mutator functions for mappers.
If you want to make a map with XPickups compatibility, but don't want it to be a necessary download for it,
just change the tags (Event > Tag) of the pickups you place on the map as follows:
Items tagged "BerserkPickup" will be replaced by Berserk
Items tagged "DoubleSpeedPickup" will be replaced by Double Speed
Items tagged "BattleSuitPickup" will be replaced by the Battle Suit
Items tagged "HelmetPickup" will be replaced by the Helmet
For instance you can place a normal UDamage in your map and set its tag to "BerserkPickup"
to make it the Berserk power-up in case the XPickups mutator is used.
This way your map will not depend on XPickups to work, but will use the new pick-ups if you enable the mutator.

* The mutator won't activate in maps where XPickups is already applied (if the map contains the XReplacer actor).

Final notes:
- This pack was fully tested with ZP weapons (ZeroPing V2.10), and worked well.
However these weapons obey the custom weapon rules instead of this pack's weapon rules,
meaning they won't have their firerate doubled with Berserk and they will have
the standard translucent power-up effect rather than the overlay one.
- Some ZP mutators give the Impact Hammer priority over the Enforcer when you respawn.
This pack was tested under a previous version of ZP and this "bug" occured
however in the case of ZeroPing V2.10 it does not, making this issue a ZP bug unrelated to XPickups.
- When playing any Arena mutator together with this pack, be sure to apply the XPickups mutator AFTER the Arena,
since otherwise most ammo pickups won't be replaced.

- Lighting/textures/sounds changed at the slime and the teleporters

So, yes the 2 new bonuspack maps are included into the patch. Syntra was a problem regarding pathing. Of course the map is not deleted, it will be put more or less "on hold".

BTW: Thx Sana! You know for what, I think :)
