Description : "Over the river and through the woods"....to Forest House we go!!!!
The Forest House was started by ook and was a really great map.
It had quite a few bugs and some problems but was still an unfinished map
at the time when he released the 2nd version. Since he released the
2nd version he has begun work on an old west town and was considering not
finishing the forest House map. I really liked the map and thought
it would be a shame for the map not to be finished because of the uniqueness
and the fun factor we always had playing in his map. I asked Ook if I could
finish it for him and just a couple weeks later I have a finished version of
the Forest House that is more than Ook could have asked for. Now everyone
can enjoy the Forest house and have as much fun as we do. There are many
secrets and entertaining places to find. Lots of guns and ammo!!! I have
also added functionality for TFFA and Ooks favorite....Jedi Master gametypes.
I would do much more with this map however, due to restrictions with JK2
mapping I am unable to add much more. There were a few other areas for the
map but max shaders was hit and I had to remove a couple areas in order for
the map to work correctly. Also I have maxed out the amount of entities you
can add to the map, otherwise I would have some more usable items. However,
there is much in this map that will be a lot of fun for everyone. A great
idea for a map by Ook, and a great looking finished touch so everyone can
join in the fun.
Enjoy!!!!!
