Assault on the Control Room: Cyberspace (SP->MP)

The Swamp Fox · Post by **The Swamp Fox** » Tue Jul 20, 2004 5:58 pm

Keeping up with myself, it's AotCR time. Don't ask why I didn't convert SC, I can't get it to load correctly. Research continues...Well again, I'm going on vacation, and again, I'm releasing a BSP conversion the day before. Wait..what's that? You didn't ask for my life story? Oh ok, sorry. To the point, it's a Forerunner Island-esque Assault on the Control Room map, b40_a. Too keep things moving, there are (truely invincible) Banshees, Shade turrets, and an edited Covenant Dropship that adds a driver camera track. As always, have fun with it, and don't sue me for the seizures you are about to have.

really is a cool conversion and i think the shaders are wild , but as far as actual gameplay goes, i dont think id play it.

but cool proof of concept, and im sure u gave a lot of people ideas for future mods

your readme says it replaces Rat Race.... I can't get the ppf to work...sorry if I'm missing something here.

Haven't DL'ed it yet, so...

IS IT COMPRESSABLE?

Drivers Ed · Post by **Drivers Ed** » Tue Jul 20, 2004 7:14 pm

can't find the sungun on this one either...

although aotcr is a lot less confusing than the library, so unless u hid it up on a ledge halfway hidden, i should be able to find it eventually, and i cant even try to cheat with sparkedit this time since it wont open it

what level are you guys patching??? I keep getting "Incorrect Version"

1 - Single player conversions are never ppf's! Its a cache file. Just rename is cache003.map and put it on ur xbox. Its not that hard to figure out

2 - Sun gun was very easy to find in this one, compared to library. I found it within 3 minutes of playing the mod, maybe it was just my luck. . . i dont know. "There goes the world..."

OK, it DOESN'T compress, same dirty disk error as when trying to compress LibraryMP. Why doesn't this work???

Also it doesn't open in spark edit for some reason, it makes SE crash.

These are cool, but I wish you would keep the levels as close as possible to the original. I really like them more that way...

Maybe that's just me.

Hmm, it says in the header of the map "wizard", but it plays as ratrace after all

it also says ratrace in HCE

Tried to compress it again, still DDE. I compressed it with HME, but if i open it in SE it says the output buffer is too large

Oh well, it works as a cache file, it is pretty cool. Yay! I found the sungun!

It's kinds hard to see where you're going, and what's the point of the covie dropship? You can just get in it, you can't drive it or shoot while you're in it. It's also pretty glitchy.

Good job, I liked the Library MP better though.

u can fly the covie dropship, u just have to get in the right seat

so how would u know if its glitchy if you havn't even flown it yet?

The Swamp Fox · Post by **The Swamp Fox** » Wed Jul 21, 2004 1:24 am

the idea was to spend minimal time outside of the indoor area, the only reason you would leave is to get a better vehicle or gun. battleing out there isnt exactly easy! for example, a strategy for ctf would be to run outside, find a covie dropship (which you can fly, and only the gunner seat is glitchy) and bring it back in. but when ur in the dropship you are a much bigger target, so theres a trade off...

i think people would like it to be just like it was.... in the original
i'm not feelin the whole cyberspace thing...

How long till you can do Outdoor sp->Mp?... whoa.. that should be something..

The Swamp Fox · Post by **The Swamp Fox** » Wed Jul 21, 2004 4:13 am

ok heres the main reason i didnt do original shaders, im going on vacation in a half hour and i wanted to finish this beforehand. so rather than wasting a week and a half, i let it out like this. 343GS will have its original shaders, i assure you.

by the way, assault on the control room IS outdoor...
