Attention Modders!!! The 2004 TT Olympics are arround the corner and we need a racing map!

Is it possible to make it so that you spawn at the same spot you die? If so, we can allow power ups and make shooting possible. Also, we'd be able to put a death fog arround the perimiter to keep people on the track. Otherwise, we'll have to make it a no shooting race. Which would be okay, but I think the shooting would make it a lot more interesting.

@ Michael, Yeah I guess... I really don't know to much about modding so I'm not really sure how that could be worked in. But I think it's a good idea. Terrains are good... There should be obsticals, like inviso rocks and stuff. Power Ups, Power Downs would be cool too! Like a fake powerup, when you get it, it explodes!

@ Modders, at first I thought of a contest, but maybe it would be better if we just get some volenteers to make a few racing maps. Then we can decide wich one we're going to use for the TT Olympics as a colective whole.

Well I think it would be possible to spawn where you died. Just tank the clients posision upon death, and make it kinda like a teaporter when they spawn.

BTW, could new terrains be in this mod?

I'll make a few, and you can count on the 2003 TT Racing Tourney winner to make it great.

Right on! Thanks Racer :) I'm sure it'll be great!

A best idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool, Ill make everything else, exept for the objects, Im really bad wit thoes

Hay guys, I got some new ideas on the racing map!

Check it out... Instead of a circle, you make it a long windy path. Have a line of boost arrow pads to indicate the start point and a scrum goal at the finish.

The first player to go thru gets 1 point, the second gets 2 the third gets 3... So on and so fourth. You following me here? This way, we can accurately determine who wins and who looses XD 1st, 2nd and 3rd place will be indicated by the points!

Also! Have immobile heavy bots sporadically spread throughout the course. They don't move, they just shoot at the players as they drive by! Again, if a player dies... They re-spawn at the same spot they died... So if they die in the death fog, they better hope they didn't get too deep into it ;)

Sounds cool?

I thought, have Race one be the common oval, Race two would be a road track (oval with lots of turns) and race three will be the above!

My oval: Here

With all the racing, you could have a long jump, a high jump, hurdles, & and finally, navigation! The navigation would be to find ur way to the finish in very dense fog, which u can only see 2 meters ahead of u! Have patches of death fog in it too! So if u ran into it, u would have to start all over again! All the rest u probably know about. %)

%)

Wow, it sounds cool man! Unfortunately, I don't know all to much about moding. I can't even figure out how to view those files you linked... I trust you guys to come up with something that'll blow us all away! You do your thing the way you do it best and I'll just enjoy the end results ;) LOL can't wait to see it XD

You view it by putting it in the missions folder as TT*_*mis (whichever one you're on), then it'll appear in the place where you create a server. Hope it works! :)

I am working on a Road Track right now, I will not be able to do the third one though.

@Racer, thanks bud.. By the way, have you spoked to Sizicus about co coordinating Team USA? I haven't heard from him in a while... If he doesn't get back to me soon, I'm thinking maybe you should just take over...

Also, I think Michael had some good ideas on the Racing map... You might want to check with him, I think he may be working on something as well.

Thanks again for your help,

I'm creating one where you start over if you die,If you live,Your first! And the race track is AWESOME!

Someone needs to check out Bimp Liskit´s race track. We don´t no how to make a lap counter though. We also need help with the spawning where you die part. Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

Hey racer, could you make the long jump stuff & all? I have a general idea of what it would look like, has anyone seen the supa ramp? It would be like that, without the volcanos, it would have the boosts, but the jumps would be in the same width as the boost pads, and you would have to go really fast to jump really far. But no UFOs, they fly really well.

I think I could write a script to tell the distance.......

Michael, we could work together on this. :)

Send me an e-mail and we can talk. :)

Hey, hey, hey :) everyone wazzup!

Any help would be greatly apprieciated. If a copy of the mission would help with this let me know and I´ll get it out to you.

Thanks

Bump.

Count Me in

I could help with map design! I can't make dts or whatever, but sketches are really easy, all you guys would have to do is make the map! Oh, can I join the olympics? Sounds fun! Bimp Lizkit had a good server, it was a racing track, im not good with nicknames, so if the real bimp lizkit could put that server up, that would be great, major fun. :)

Mine is almost done....
