Well seeing the other noobish modding contests held, why not have a better one? :) So here are the requirements:

- Mod must be some new gametype - no reamaking Capture The Base or KOTH :)

- Must be a polished product, I'm tired of seeing insanely fast moving tanks running around a shambled together map. Please refrain from using new objects

- No MAJOR bugs in the program. I know how much of a pain it is to work out all bugs, so :)

- Can not RELY on external packages, like an admin system, all requirements must be built into the CS file(s)

- Entry *should* be ready-ish 2 weeks from now, sooner is better.

- You do not have to share cs files.

You can host the servers for judging, I have no interest in stealing your mods :) This means you do NOT have to send me your mod cs file(s) so you can keep it all to yourself. If you need a server I've got a server in the works that I could *hypotheticaly* run it on.

I also need voulenteers to be judges, anyone?

My entry - Team Hunters. Based on an idea by Wiz a long time ago :) Each team has a "hunted" which is supposed to be protected at all costs. First team to kill the opponents "hunted" person wins the round. Every new round a new "hunted" is chosen. No stealing :)

[Ishbuu]

Redifined rules.

Make up your mind :)

Oh and good luck XD

[Ishbuu]

Idea

Freeze Tag

One (or more) person(s) (or a bot....) will be "it"...
"it" will then try to tag the other players with a blue lazer
if a player is successfully tagged they become frozen
the players that are "not-it" can un-freeze frozen players by shooting them with a red lazer

"it" gains one point per player frozen and looses 3 points when killed (its very hard to kill "it")
"not-it" gains two points for killing "it", gains one point by un-freezing a player and looses a point when they are frozen

Each round a new "it" will be chosen

Like it??

Teams will work well for this...

Team Red is "not it"
Team Green is "it"
Team Blue is frozen

(points dont go to teams.... Team is just an indicator of status, whether it be "it", "not-it" or frozen)

I'll enter! I have an idea...

Stampede Tag!

A single player game, it involves tanks in a bit more stretched out map, few obstructions, and you'll need to stay 'it' for however long the game will last (probably 10 min.). It doesn't matter if you're it for most of the game, it's whoever's it at the end. Idle tank-prevention included. Another way would be accumulating points when you're 'it' and person with most points wins.

Another...

Shootout.
A western-themed gametype, you WILL NOT be able to move your tan, the AI will do it for you. You'll stop in a certain area, and bots will pop out from behind boxes, crates, and other stuff. Once you have destroyed all bots, you will have a chance to proceed or pick up bonus points by blasting other stuff.

I like Shootout better, but we'll see... :)

You're now labeled CL %)
Good Luck

[Ishbuu]

I have a couplde of sweet ideas, but I'm no scriptor. Hey dj, maybe we can wokr together. Two idiots are better than one XD

Cant cant cant wait wait wait for those gametypes!! %) I can make one without.cs script but it will not be that good so I dont join...

DJ, I'll help you with that. :)

Updated the list, I'm only putting down the main coders for now, if you have an "aliance" please make it clear. Errr e-mail for random reason: ishbuu@gmail.com :)

[EDIT] Whoop sorry bout that, minor update on my project :) Err all the code is done, working on debugging right now, making sure nothing breaks XD Should have a public server up... Eventually ;)

Can't script but here's an idea!

Capture the Queen
Each team (blue,red,green) Would have a big fort gaurded by super strong bosses [bots]. Inside the fort there would be a queen. Teams have to capture all the queens and must have 3 queens at the same time in their fort to end the round.

Point System:

Normal Kills: 1 pt.
Team kills: -2 pts.
CTQ winner: 100 pts.
Boss kill: 4 pts.

Simple eh?

Heres An idea Capture the emmiter 10 seconds under the emmiter gives u a point

No... I can't export. I take it ur on windows. If ur not, than that would be great. Where did u get maya, and u should be able to import the file I gave u into 3dwings. U shouldn't need maya to do this! And think about my idea... And yes, I like jims idea too

The smaller the team, the faster you'll be able to get it done, thats all I have to say ;) Too many people creates a clunky communication scheme, and you might not get it readyish in time :)

[Ishbuu]

Looks nice war, can't wait to play :)

Is shootout and duel same?

Warfare wanna be partners I got the freeze thingy done???Also working on a powerup that is called jackpot but for somereason it wont addy points but when u go over it cp comes up,can anybody help me wit points email it to freetofightu@yahoo.com

@ dj... All it does it let me export in.mp. And did u ever think u might not have enough memory! I will run thi through jimmy, and we'll see what we get!

I quit...
I will join the next competition
I really dont feel like doing this, someone can take over for me

Ishbuu I have already talked to you about me not having enough time so you should understand

Well Jacob(SF) and I are Doing:

Keep Away
there is 20 bots (without Names) in a team b-Mode game
they are lighttanks you are a medium (but faster than normal)
you have to keep the scrum away from the bots if they score than They get 5 more tanks,
If one of the lighttanks dies he stays dead

SF*

Attention Dj and Racer... I have a raceway done!!! It still needs buildings and objects, but the overally terrain has been completed!!! Pics below!

Jimmy and I decided to use the laguna seca raceway. The Track from the above looks something like this

and my, not so exact replica looks something like this

Here is what it looks like on the track so far

I still need to add buildings and stuff!

Thunder Dome..Where 2 go in but only one comes out Battle most know about my game there is a web site for it

Lookin good guys, like what I see :)

[Ishbuu]

Ok racer. Do u have any idea on what dj was trying to do. If so, try and complete it. We are going to have no time when he comes back

Ps- I need ur email

EDIT: Cant Do it :( Dont Have enough time on my hands

Ideas

Battlefront

I got this idea while playing Star Wars Battlefront. In the mod each team's spawn points would be their bases. If an enemy stays in your base for at least 10 seconds it is now theirs and their team is spawned there now. Once one team has all the spawn points the game has ended and that team has won. If the time runs out before that happens then which ever team with the most points wins. Points would work as in BT mode. For More info go to New Mod Idea - Need Help! .

Stay Away

This game is the opposite of tag. The goal is to be it the longest. You could score it two different ways. Last it wins or who has most points by holding it the longest wins. Of course we could always have normal tag, but it has been done before.

Capture The Flag Reloaded

This is not the same as the original. There are two flags (scrum ball) in each goal. The object is to capture the flag from the opposing team's base and return it to your team's base. Your team's flag must still be at your base for it to count. This means there needs to be a way so that your team can't move your flag out of your base. If a team's flag is dropped a member of that team can instantly send it back to their base by touching it. Otherwise it will be sent back after 5 seconds automatically if an opposing member doesn't pick it up. Each capture scores a point and the team with the most points wins.

Like my ideas? You can make them happen. Just give me the files for them, you can take all credit.

Idea!

Based on Halo2

Juggernaught

One player is superpowered (the Juggernaught) and must kill the other players
if a regular player kills the Juggernaught, they become the Juggernaught!
scores only apply as follows
Juggernaught gets points for killing anyone except himself
other players get points for killing the Juggernaught but not for other players

Simple right? :P

Last edited: Tuesday, July 12, 2005 at 10:39:59 PM

That shouldn't be too hard... Its just 2 different tanks, one superpowered and one not, then we'd have to check when someone dies to see who killed the Juggernaught, and give that player the Juggernaught's tank... If the Juggernaught suicided we could just make a random player the Juggernaught...

Well I'm busy right now, and if I join I already have another gametype in question :)

Just checking in, I'm alive (been working on a new computer and converting the old one into a server for hosting games :)) and working on stuff. Ideas sound good, no other people entering? There are one week left XD

[Ishbuu]

@Art - You suck for not joining :)

Last edited: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 at 5:48:12 AM

I just do not join because I'm busy with other script like my admin script, and I got a line... If I finished the gametype I'm doing I could join, but its a complicated gametype and I forgot what each thing did so I might have to remake it XD

When exactly is this thing due... I am guessing it is around sunday or monday (I am guessig, or hoping) The reason I ask is because the two main mebers of out team are gone, and I don't have racer's email, sooooo.... :'(

Racer445-at-gmail.com

YES!!! Ok.. I am going to send u the map. Please place buiding and stuff in the middle of the track. All the hope is on now!

Check your mail.

Can you put it up for me?

Can't... I don't have 20 bucks :'(

I am going to widthdraw from this, I simply don't have the time.

...i feel alone...
