===================================================================== Half-Life Map Spec Sheet ===================================================================== ------General Information-------------------------------------------- Title : The Retreat Filename : TheRetreat.bsp Author : Norman Little Author Email : Norms_nsl@hotmail.com Home page : Description : A Hunted map thats more involving for the hunted Previous Maps : ------Credits and Thanks--------------------------------------------- Thanks to Mark for allowing me to shoot him in the head millions of times when he test played as the hunted. Thanks removed, for him shooting me when I test played as the hunted. ------Additional Info, Tips, and Notes------------------------------- ATTENTION: This is the second (and hopefully final) release of this map, improving areas of the map as suggested by radium and the playtesters on his server (thanks WarHogg, nijtram, Rafter, Mr.McFeely, Juice, Zolf, Spectrum, XenoFury, NecroFeces, wedge_pcgs, EarlTheSquirrel, Huck, EliteSniper, Washout and nimrod for you feedback). This does mean there are two versions of this map. I'll keep the same filename as due to it's size, you wouldn't want to download this map directly from a game. Same rules as the hunted apply but points are awards to escaping bodyguards (i.e. players who are on the helicopter when it escapes). Only death is awarded for players who try to escape without the hunted. Tips Hunted (Limit 1) - Be sure you're good at jumping and avoiding traps. Also the exit building contains shield batteries if you're brave enough to collect them. Bodyguards - Get on that helicopter when the hunted leaves and shield him for the duration of the flight. Samaritan (Limit 1) - Turn sniper and pick off the Assassins to help the Hunted escape, or infiltrate the Assassins hideout (via the back entrance) and cause havoc. For all of the above - Don't try to enter the green identity scanners (unless you're a spy), they only end in pain. Also have someone activate the helicopter as the hunted ascends the exit building, otherwise he's a sitting duck. Assassins (Limit 7) - Remember the game gets harder for the hunted to escape when more windows are broken. As with the others, avoid the red identity scanners. Bugs The green team cannot score any points at all. This is a bug with the code (increase_team4 does not work). Once this has been retified, the Samaritan should reap his reward. When collecting ammo, sometimes the collecting sound is not played. Again this looks like some odd processing in the game code as this isn't a problem when the map is played as a single player map! (Anyway it doesn't affect how the game plays) ------Play Information----------------------------------------------- Deathmatch : Single Player : Map Description : How Many Players: Between 6-24 ------Map Information------------------------------------------------ New Textures : None New Sounds : None ------Construction--------------------------------------------------- Base : Editor(s) used : Wordcraft 2.1 Compile Machine : PII 450 Compile time : 2.5 Hrs Playtest time : 20 Hrs ------Map Instructions----------------------------------------------- Unzip the files in this archive.
