ONS Floodgate XL
RC2
Unreal Tournament 2004

Description: My first 2k4 map :D WAR-Floodgate from UT3 somewhat ported to 2k4.  Scale and gameplay area should be very close to that of UT3. The most glaring difference in this version of Floodgate is there are 2 added primary nodes. I did this to make up for the lack of a countdown node in 2k4. This is the node layout and links:

This map features some of the EONS assets (hellbender, scorpion, and EMP deployer) created by Wail of Suicide. Other modded weapons/vehicles/ etc may be added in future versions.

Screens (outdated):

open the package containing the mesh you want in the generic browser. Right click on the mesh you want to copy and select duplicate. You will come to this screen:

select your maps package and click OK. Now open your maps package and double click on the mesh you just copied to open the static mesh editor:

fully expand everything under the LODInfo tab. Circled in pink above is the line you are looking for. You will have to copy the material used on the mesh into your maps package also. This is done the same way as you copied the mesh but with a few more instructions:

each material is made up of 1 or more textures listed as texture sample in the material editor:

in the pink circle above, unchecking those boxes will give you per poly collision on meshes.

Hi guys! I was honored to be asked by Barry barballs Cogan to cook HOLP2 for PS3. Click my sig, read my column, get them at our site! I know, I could just post the file front link, but you should check out my column anyways, I try really hard to make sure it doesn't suck!  Also, wasn't sure where to post this, got no screenies and they're not my maps, so, miscellaneous it is! Feel free to delete/edit/move my post, whatever. Hope you're all well! Go RED SOX! Woo Hoo!

I thought it would be cool to start a Forum for the users on this site to add game reviews too since we all seem to mostly enjoy playing the same types of games.

I have already seen a little of this with entries about MGS4 etc...

I really have nothing to add at this point since I haven't bought a game since GTAIV came out but I strongly encourage everyone to post their opions on games to keep the rest of us alerted to what is hot out there!!!

Thought some of you technical GOW types might find this useful, here is the link:

Basically, it records the game, the paths people took, where they camped, etc. Useful for clan strategy, but also for mapmakers, they can use it to tweak maps and Bot pathing, if the bots are acting stupid it tells you how and where. The possibilities are endless. Hope you find it useful or at least interesting!
