Topic: Custom Warfare Posted: 27 Aug 2009 at 3:02pm |
It was suggested to me that I make a post about some custom warfare maps, so here it goes. I have a dedicated server up and running called iAMCustomWARFARE. I will be hosting only custom warfare maps on this server.
My plan is to have have 3 maps on this server initially, then there will be a weekly addition to the server of one map per week.
If there are ever any suggested maps or mods or other ideas please respond to this post and I will do my best to respond to the suggestions/questions.
First three maps:
WAR-BeachFront:
Description:
_N_ writes, "One of the things I kept in mind whilst designing the map was the many common UT3 complaints that I heard. Such as "UT3 maps are dark" or "gloomy" or "terribly blurry". I decided to tackle this misconception head-on and envisioned my map as an ideal day at the beach: bright, sunny, and clear!" To install on your PS3:
1. Copy USERDATA.JAM to any USB Drive/flash drive supported by your PS3. (Its better/faster if you have a flash drive, than installing directly to PS3 via this link.)
2. Take flash drive out of your PC and place it in a USB port on your PS3.
3. On Unreal Tournament 3 Main Menu screen select: Community: Mod Browser: hit square for - Import Content: then select your USB flash drive: hit X to Import Mod.
4. It will then install mod and unpack mod, wait for it to finish then you are ready to play the custom map.
WAR-Arctic Stronghold
Author: Bret Hart
Description: All the snowy slopes throughout the level are really fast. The warfare layout is perfectly done. Bret Hart writes, "A remake from UT2004's ONS-ArticStronghold."
WAR-XcavatedOE
Author: BigDog
Description: An excellent map set in an excavated city. A single prime node and loads of peripheral nodes keep the map interesting. BigDog writes, "I've been making maps for over a year now and have put a few of them out. My main focus was recreating ONS maps, so that's the direction I took and did not include orbs in them. Well there's been enough requests out there for orb editions so what I've done over the last few months was go back into some of my older maps and include a setup with the orb included. While I was at it I did a few bug fixes to each map and on one of them I did a whole re-theme of the map."

Are you hosting this from a PS3, PC or leasing a server? Either way, thanks for doing this. Much appreciated.

I am hosting it from a PS3, because it is the only way that I know of to play all custom content. I know the ping may not be great all the time so I will constantly be upgrading my internet service. Thanks.

Yeah make sure you download the whole map. If it only takes a second you did not download the whole map. Click on the link and download it again, you may have to overwrite the first attemted download. I do not know why this happens.

Maybe it'd be nice if there were some set times where people say they'll check it out to get it started

Nice darakoom! the one problem with most ps3 cooks is that if they were done before patch 2.1 they will not work anymore. Any custom maps that you want to work with the new patch must be recooked with patch 2.1. If you need any help let me know. I was planning on a mid week custom map night also like GOW used to do but if this works out there would be no need too. Thanks Koom!!!
Im trying to re a**emble GOW on the ps3 side so if that happens there will be much more custom warfare sh1t out. Im putting together another map pack too which i will post when im done :) Make sure you checkout GOW WAR Map pack 1!!

Yeah I thought about the cooking thing and I tried all three maps, and they worked so far, but if I need help I will be asking.

So what day were u planning to do this koom?
If i were you I would take Artic Stronhold down and go with TOODarkPark. Too Dark is a legit remake of the old artic stronghold from 2k4 while the Artic you have is a half a** made war map.
Thats just my opionion, and if you need help handpicking nice war maps let me know. Did the maps that you grabbed from our site actually work with the new patch? If it did Im gonna kill epic because I started to delete all the ps3 links we had on our site cause I was under the impression they wouldnt. AHHHHH!!!!!

No actually as of yesterday I had not grabbed any maps off your site, just off ut3mod. ArcticStronghold still worked for me but I don't know if it does for everyone.

I am planning to have this dedicated server up all the time so if anyone at any time wants to play then they can. However I do see the merit of potentially picking a couple of nights where people will put aside for custom WARFARE maps, or maybe they won't I don't mind. I'll throw out Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday as my vote, any one or all of those days would be cool. I don't care what time, let me know what time you think. In addition to that after a few requests on PSN, last night, I have already added more maps to the custom server. The GOW map pack 1. Here's a link:ENJOY!!!

What I meant by it is that at the start not a lot of people will have these maps, and not everyone comes to iAMgaming.com and finds these links, so I thought that by doing that at least a small community is ensured to have these maps

This weeks maps:
This week there are two new maps for your enjoyment.
Name: WAR-Imperialism
Compatibility: PS3 Description: The Conquest of the World. Author: spacedemonebu
This map is gigantic and really fun to play, many vehicles, health, armor, and really terrific custom mini-map and core explosion sequence.
Download this map it is really cool.
Downfall of the map may be that it needs alot of people to play it, because of its size.
But it is still fun, driving a LEVIATHAN over mountains and through oceans of the world is really fun
Title : War-MiddleCityArena
Author : UNREALBOMBER Compatibility: UT3 (PS3) This map is a cla**ic, it is really fun to play.
Enjoy!!!

Have u tested imperialism yet? Its made for a 32-900 players and is waaaay to big to play on the ps3. Its a really original idea but the gameplay of that map sucks. You might run into the other team once on that map if your lucky :P |
