Description:
---------------------------------------------------------
This is a map I designed myself. =D Lasertag! Who doesn't like to play lasertag? I mean,
not just in games but in real life!? Anyway, this is again, a reflected map for blue and red
teams to play on. It comes in FFA, TFFA, and CtF, so it can be used by anyone, whether you enjoy
CtF like me and some others in the community, or you are ignorant of the awesome potential of
the CtF game type and will only play FFA and TFFA. =_,O I have also added a clever way of keeping
certain people out of the spawns entirely, so grab what you need and get out, because you're not
getting back in. =p Also included here is a unique style of having the flag available only if
you penetrate the enemy team's base and forced to fight your way out past the spawn areas.
The idea of the red and blue team shader walls was to add in different strategies for
each side of the map. On the red side, it is bright and you can spot your enemies with clear ease
and take them down, however, with the blue side, it's darker with transparent blue walls to take
cover and still keep an eye on your enemies, or keep an eye on incoming enemies and warn your
teammates about 'em.
Ah, but what's this? Something else penetrates within this little .ZIP, but what could
it be!? Oh yes, of course! What lasertag map could be more suited than with a lasertag SKIN! Yes,
this includes a lasertag skin with team support AND species support. Yeah, that's right, mix
and match your skin to whatever you want it to be! Oh, and what have we here? Not just green,
blue and red variants of all three types, but yellow, orange and purple as well! =D
However, some things I want to get across people that servers don't tend to take lightly:
- Don't take advantage of the species customization and play red team as a blue soldier
- No one likes a camper, so don't sit behing some wall and wait for your teammate to score the
flag for you to jump down and grab right away as it respawns.
- The Red Side may cause harm to the eyes. Use cautiously and play less than usual (I actually
think this is good because it keeps people from playing it as much as they might usually do,
giving them more time to do better things, like riding a bicycle =_,O)
Comments:
---------------------------------------------------------
Well, There were some things I wanted to add to this mod, but found I either couldn't do
them or that they would be too much work. I really wanted to add a video file and use different
music for those monitors, but the .ROQ would just not work! >_> Oh well, maybe next time...
I had a bunch of skins to go along with this as selectable through the both the character
selection window and the species selection, but they didn't make much sense and they needed some
work. But like I said, oh well, maybe next time...
Which reminds me, I have yet to tell anyone reading this that I am currently planning on
a lasertag map pack with all of my skins included, though they will, of course, hold much more
detail than what they have now, including the Cybersoldier of this mod. XP
Map includes:
---------------------------------------------------------
-Reflected team bases (same stuff on each side, just edited a bit)
-Different strategies for both sides of the map
-Glowy stuff everywhere!
-Three spawn rooms that you CAN'T get into, this time
-Items inside the spawn rooms (grab and share with your teammates!)
-Various ways to get into or out of either side
-Monitors with some nice to look at pictures (I was planning on a video there, but it wasn't working... >_>)
Credits:
---------------------------------------------------------
~Azenin for BETA testing my map a few times in its creation and for giving me those dynamic lighting screenshots (because my computer isn't good enough to utilize dynamic lighting)
~Inyri Forge for allowing me to use her Red Power Ranger Model as the Cybersoldier skin
~To SithDagger for providing the base texture for the walls (I made two new textures from the basic, black one)
~To my favourite image editing software of all time: GIMP 2.4.6 =D Yeah, older version, but I like it
~To the game of lasertag for giving me something to do
~To anyone who likes to play lasertag games
~To anyone who can follow common sensible rules for this map
~To Raven Software and Lucasarts, for obvious reasons
Instalation:
---------------------------------------------------------
Put the pk3 file, Lasertag, into your Gamedata/base folder of your Jedi Knight 3:
Jedi Academy directory.
Permission:
---------------------------------------------------------
You may ask me for permission to use this map for your project, but I do not entirely
tolerate asking to allow my files to be hosted on another site. If this issue has been broken,
you could be held liable for the break of this contract and could be held accountable for a
federal crime. Yes, that's right, break this contract and the Federal Bureaucracy of
Investigation or some other international police force will arrest you due to fraud and
plagarism. Try not to think too much of this, though, just ask me and I'll see about letting
you to use this for a JKFiles related project (any mod you may make for JKFiles, not for another
site). Of course, don't ask me about hosting my mod on your site, as I will dismiss it, most likely
your site and if it appears, I will have the site closed and the owner and yourself placed under
arrest under federal charges. There, you will await the charges of international law, and after
that, my own lawsuit against all participating in the actions. Trust me, I can sue someone for a
lot of money just for hosting my mods on their site without my permission, I should know, I've got
lawyer in me. =p
Legalties: (I'd suggest you read this carefully)
