first mapping attempt

[Mattn]

the texture (table tennis) was rescaled in master (to power of two) but not in ufoai_2.3

[tilli]

I don't know. Checking my 2.3 installation, I don't see any good matches at the moment. Soon there should be nightly builds of 2.4 and radiant for windows, so you won't run into this issue any more.

Then I will wait for the 2.4 version and rework the map to final status then.

If you don't have any dropships your map can't be included in the campaign.

There are already maps without dropships in the campaign!
But of course I want my map in the campaign (if the devs want them), so please send the lesson about putting in a dropship and ufo.

[Mattn]

oh wait - that wasn't correct - you can add a map to the campaign without a dropship - even without ufos (in fact there are already some maps without dropships and ufos)

[H-Hour]

That's right, I forgot about maps like Bunker.

[tilli]

ok, I think I managed to switch to dev 2.4 version
so here is the next upload of the map

tilli

[Mattn]

should we add this to data_source now?

[tilli]

mattn: grünes Licht,
but no warranties
and please rename it for the ingame use

[Mattn]

rename to what? what should be the name for it? can you maybe provide a maps.ufo entry?

[H-Hour]

Hey tilli, it's looking good. Nice work on the material file as well. Here are a few more things I found. Once you make these changes and let me know the new name for the map, I'll get it into /data_source/.

Do you want to try to get dropships going or not?

[tilli]

h-hour, thanks for the quality control, I hope I got everything
the light are ok, so no changes there
no dropships or ufos for this map (it will stand as it is for the moment), the next one will include them (promise)

so next try for upload

can please somebody with more knowledge then me should fill out some things in the barbone .ufo

tilli
