POLL: Avanti remake; use new textures or original? - Page 2

sir_frags · 10-22-2007, 09:07 PM

No Gambit...YOU made it that way....and not one person has voted in the poll since its been moved. I didnt post it as a mapper. You dont think I know what I wanted? This was my poll and my thread...I had it right where I wanted it. And there are 2,400 more threads in the General section than there are here.

And you didnt even vote dude...STFU!!!!

BTW, unless someone on my ignore list is mouthing off, I haven't seen any criticism in this thread except my reply to the forum leader for moving my thread and the other guy who tried to shut it down. I put up a fair poll and so far I've enjoyed the responses I've gotten.

And there's two times more threads in the General section and that's where most of the members of this forum post. All Gambit and the forum leader did was pretty much shut this poll down by moving it over here in the obscure mapper section. I bet the first 4 people who replied never would have replied if they hadn't seen my thread in the General section.

And thank you all for voting in the poll!!!! 22 votes so far....oh man it looks like I'll be using all Source textures.......

Credge, Dr Uudge, Icculus, SoundCh4s3r, KubeDawg, and Dr. Satan....thanks alot. Hope to see you guys online sometime...I'll frag the heck out ya

Oh boy I can see where this going... LOL
Not that sir_frags can see this, but updated textures and a total remake woould be the best way to go.

Hope it turns out.

Votes are anonymous. You can't prove that. BTW, you're asking about textures for a map that you are working on. Definitely belongs in the Mapping forum and nowhere else.

Um, votes aren't anonymous.

um..if you didnt post it as a mapper then why should we give a fuck what kind of textures you use? i mean if your not making it and all. you must be spotting, take an aleve and chill.

also, when creating a poll you have the option of making it private or where you can see who voted and for what, so your both correct.

EDIT: your poll question says "For avanti should i" which implies that you are in fact working or thinking about working on avanti, thus proving my point that it belongs in the "Mapping" area.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahah

Now there's 28 votes. Throws that right out the window.

paranoidkirb · 10-22-2007, 09:33 PM

Well... I've never known that. It's always been anonymous on phpBB and IPB so... my bad.

Desyphur · 10-22-2007, 09:56 PM

So basically, this is sir_frag's before

I'VE HAD ENOUGH INFANTILE RESPONSES FROM THESE LITTLE KIDS TO LAST ME A LIFE TIME. I REALLY DONT KNOW WHY ANY MAPPER WASTES HIS TIME POSTING ABOUT HIS MAPS IN THIS FORUM. YOU'D BE BETTER SERVED GOING OVER TO INTERLOPERS.NET.

THE MAP WAS NOT EVEN POSTED HERE AND NO DLOAD LINK WAS PROVIDED FOR IT. I MERELY STATED THAT I HAD THE FIRST RATS MAP UP RUNNING ON MY SERVER. I ASKED TWO FORUM ADMINS TO LOCK THE THREAD WHEN THE INFANTS STARTED GETTING UGLY, BUT NEITHER ADMIN WOULD DO SO . . . IN SPITE OF THEIR "NO FLAME" POLICY.

Now he doesn't like amppers, and only wants people who "play the game" to respond...odd...

D3pth · 10-22-2007, 10:22 PM

hl1 textures should never be used. ever. they don't look good. It will just make the map look like shit and it won't match the source textures. Making the floor tfc textures is a terrible idea. I wouldn't play a map with hl1 textures.

Blueiii · 10-22-2007, 10:38 PM

Please use the source textures, as they will look way better than the original textures. Leave them originals for the HL1 maps

.

sir_frags · 10-23-2007, 03:14 AM

Hey guys....I'm switching this poll to another forum where the forum leaders and little kids wont screw it up. Before the forum leader switched my post to this section, the results were actually very close. This thread belonged in the General section where more people and the average player would have seen it. I'm not following this thread or this poll anymore, and if you didn't get a PM from me about where I switched it.....oh well.

CYA!!!!!

Depth and blueiii hahaha..I understand dudes. But you really want all your maps to look the same? I thought Avanti was one of the most realistic looking maps in TFC.

Whats the deal with this guy? Someone needs to kick his ass off his almight high horse.
He has issues with taking feedback he does not want to see. Sigh

paranoidkirb · 10-23-2007, 04:29 AM

I want to make some criticism, but I just can't. This arrogance has left me completely speechless.

Yeah, it had absolutely nothing to do with mapping-related threads belonging in the Mapping Forum.

I wonder if anything in his version of avanti will actually be new or if it will just basically be a port (with explosive barrels and health packs scattered everywhere, of course).

You don't know that until you try it. How about he skins it both ways? Release the source version first, and release the next one labeled tfc_avanti instead of ff_avanti.

GambiT · 10-23-2007, 11:18 AM

man he is worst than a girl on the rag.

i would love to know one thing though. if your NOT making the map then why the fuck do you want to know what textures ppl prefer?

Ginger Lord · 10-23-2007, 02:28 PM

Someone needs some cheese to go with their whine.

Seriously, HL1 textures WILL not work. They are about half the resolution at most they need to be, they'll be stretched 2-4x to get the right scale and will look awful.

Agreed, a source map with hl1 textures will make everything look stretched out and blurry. Id rather all the maps look the same (which they wouldnt) rather than some looking good, and others like shit.

And sir frags, good luck getting constructive critizism with that attitude. Might aswell not ask us and do whatever you want.

Clearly this is where he released all his other maps and they kissed his ass about how superb they were and never really gave him any constructive criticism. Seriously, frags, man, I can understand where you're comin' from, you just gotta take the feedback though, honestly.

Just to let you know, if you want, remaking the textures you like from hl1 for hl2 would be best.
