Hello there

Back in 2005 I started a big map out of frustration of how few maps where having Axis as the attacking team. So the point was to make a map in which Axis would get a lot of attack to do.
It features basically everything an attacking team can be assigned to do in a map (building, destroying, stealing, infiltrating ...) in a variety of situations (indoor, outdoor, vertical ...).



Couple screenshots :

Hi all,

Thanks for reworking your map because it is rare to get any good maps where it is the axis who attack.

Note that unfortunaly it doesn't run under "silent 0.8.2" (i have tried on my server) and by contrast i have tried on a server test "wolffiles" under "NQ" and it worked , i hope it will be fixed soon for your map be a success...

In fact , the first thing i have checked it is the textures and it is the same textures (wall and sand etc...) from the previous version and i'd like that these textures be reworked i mean they look not clean and hazy.

If the textures have not been reworked because the size of the map is already near from 30 Mo...keep in mind you have any useless texture inside , and even a ".png" forgotten picture inside too !!

It is just my opinion , my little feedback for helping...

It would help if you could provide details on why it doesnt run : warnings, error messages, or if you know of other maps that does not run either on silent.

schnoog on Wolffiles tells me that the file is actually a RAR file, not a ZIP file, and that is what is causing problems in some cases. He said converting it to a zip file fixed his problem. Its weird tough because the process I use to make the pk3 is supposed to output a zip file, and it seems to do so...

Hi Yatta,

In fact there is none message , the server recognizes your map in "referee" OK , but the server doesn't launch your map (under "Silent 0.8.2") , then i have tried my usual plan B 01lol.gif (i have put your map included in my objective.cfg) and restart for sure , and same...



By contrast with your previous version there was/is none problem to run it.

Then maybe your map is not compatible "Silent 0.8.2" and/or not compatible too with "gametype 2"...it happens but it is very rare this kind of problems (under "Silent 0.8.2").

I say "very rare" because while these 5 last years i have ran "NQ" and "Nitmod" servers and too many problems , and since 1 year i run a "Silent MOD" server and 99,99 % of my old problems are deleted (and yet i run a huge stock of maps).

Seriously , i am amazed that you don't have tested your map under "Silent 0.8.2" who is a highly reliable mod and by contrast "NQ" is full of bugs...

For my part if i had to make a map i will test it in first under "Silent 0.8.2" because it is the best "MOD" , the most stable and so performing , this "MOD" is a great new for the future of our favourite game.

In all cases , thanks and congratulations for your hard work :)

Vive la France !!

I had reports it doesnt work on Silent. The reason I didnt test it myself is ... I dont know how.

Yeah I can map a map but I cant setup a local server running a specific mod -_- ... when I try I get error messages like "ERROR: BG_IndexForString: unknown token" so im currently trying to figure that out.

This seems to be mod specific config cvar related. If you load the map, with an empty server, and you click as if you were going to spectate, ClientBegin function is called 3 or 4 times before server crashes with no other error messages.

If you manage to not activate the clientbegin call, and join a team, then the map work normally. Also if you're already in a team and you load the map.

--> It happens to me in ALL maps, including official oasis. It also happens with canyon depths b9, but this map requires 6 clientbegin calls to shut down the server. <--

In wolffiles silent server running the map, this does not happen.

(PS: Maybe he didn't design and test it for silent because silent wasn't even thought on 2005 grin.gif)

EDIT AGAIN: Change your g_spectator cvar. In my testserver it was set to 0 and crashed all the time as explained above. Set it to 4 and problems gone.

Releasing Canyons Depths FINAL !

I dont know if I should make a new topic or if updating this one is enough ? Well anyways ...

So yeah, its the FINAL version as in "I wont release another version" - unless some major bug/balance issue needs to be adressed.
I took a while. Thanks to everyone who encouraged me and helped me making the map. :)

ETF runs Yatta's map with silent 0.8.2 since months, never had a single crash. The map is pretty stable. Thank you Yatta for a such contribution. Very appreciated.
