hi dudes,
i decided to anounce my new project now because i need some critizsm.
its the winchester Pub from Sotd like Zuwahmbi is doin it. but in fact, our maps are very different.
for now, there are just a few screenshots of the map but i think i´ll release a beta in a few days.(main problem left: r_speeds, like everytime...)
the map isnt objective based (pure lms)


what i want to know:
+what weapons should be inside the pub? (for now: benelli,sawed off,axe,deagle,sw44 and the winchester)
+do you want music in the map?
+what do you think of the screens.
+should i include a escape zone? (eg. after 10min the door at the bar opence and leads to the escapezone,like in the film)
+any other ideas?

screens:

Ok... hmmmmmm

This is going to be hard but i have one suggestion...

Make it so behind the bar is a safe zone... Also would you be able to make it so when the main doors blow open it activates zombie spawns inside the actual pub?..

And finally, I assume your going to make a cellar, After say 14 minutes of playing the map make it so the bar gets flooded with zombies and the cellar door opens. (You could also make it so a fire completely consumes the upper floor) Making EVERYONE in the map retreat downwards.

Add a exit hatch in the cellar and fill the steet outside with zombies. Then make it so the players have to run down the road the military escape zone.

And thats my idea....

i think it's a great map so far n i'd go wid Radman's idea. also...see if u can put a Winchester above the bar, on the wall...that would b cool

"Make it so behind the bar is a safe zone..." ---> players would only camp behind the bar

"Also would you be able to make it so when the main doors blow open it activates zombie spawns inside the actual pub?.." ---> sth like that is already included

"And finally, I assume your going to make a cellar, After say 14 minutes of playing the map make it so the bar gets flooded with zombies and the cellar door opens." --->already included (after 10min i guess)

"(You could also make it so a fire completely consumes the upper floor) Making EVERYONE in the map retreat downwards." ---> to high rspeeds

"Add a exit hatch in the cellar and fill the steet outside with zombies. Then make it so the players have to run down the road the military escape zone."--->maybe something like that, lets see what others say


and there is a winchester above the bar already ;]

nice map

already got the winchester? sweet

Like i said in the other thread, your truely talented, and i know i'll be playing this map ALOT.

Its beautiful ... but when you release, try not to put in on the 4th page because I really don't want to sign up, since I know I'm just going to download and never actually post.

Its great though .. stunning XD

My ideas would be...

- When the zombies start to break in, can you make like an scratching sound or the window smpashing?
-Hang the Winchester on that hanger thingy like in the movie. And you could be boosted to get it or have an chair and jump on it to reach it?
- Make some of the chairs movable, so that you can block some zombies spawn?

There my ideas.

Well, when its done and released, if you join the server, it will autodownload to you. Registering does not mean you "have" to post, I just do not have public downloads, I have already stated my reasons

i wont link it on 3rd sites. same mirrors like birdland + custommap list.

@grey snake: eh...yes the windows are smashing...in what other way should the zombies get in?

no movable chairs, u could get to positons where you shouldnt. its not a campingmap....

i´ll see what i can do with the winchester


@radman: a fred in a lmsmap? u already have enough to do with the normal zombies.

'Dont stop me now - Queen' : maybe. lets see what Zuwahmbi has. i wont include it if he has it already

when is the map coming out?
can u please update us about the news on this?

Yeah, it's in there. I'm planning on doing a huuuuuge long-ass compilation song-file with a few songs from the movie, plus a few not (in particular "We've Gotta Get Out Of This Place" by the Animals, which was going to be in the movie but was replaced). But you can use it if you want, don't matter to me. In fact, you can use my file if'n you have it/are going to get it.

Add the cellar- you hold the bar for say 10 mins? Then you go to the cellar and wait 2mins and a lift comes down and you step onto it and your rescued?
