Title: Aces High Freehost
Post by: Ripsnort on December 14, 2000, 12:42:00 PM
Misleading title to bring attention to the HTC staff that we would REALLY like to have an alternative terrain other than Verm's wonderful MED in the SEA for the holidays.
I would suggest looking at Luzon2 or Russian Front 2 from 10bears, or Redwings BoB terrain.

And can you extend night in Main until at least the Moon rises?  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Happy holidays!

I suggest that HTC would let players to vote for next tours map.
Maps of course would be interviewed by HTC first, so there wouldn't be tens of bad maps and couple good maps.

Ummm this isn't an official answer.

But I wouldn't count on it.

You see, to my knowledge as of a couple of days ago, no one has officially submitted any terrains to HTC for review.

Once its submitted it usually takes a week or so of back and forth work between the designer and HTC (Superfly in my case) to get all the bugs out. At least this was my experience when I submitted my terrain.

Then after it was fixed it took another 3 days of work by Pyro and Hitech to get it up and running on one of the servers.

And right now, all of HTC is busting their butts on 1.05 (at least this is the rumor, I think they're out getting a good drunk going  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) )

When 1.05 comes out, every terrain in the game becomes obsolete and has to be reworked to fit the new requirements.

So it doesn't make alot of sense to put all that work into a terrain, if your trying to get 1.05 out the door, which will have its own "new terrain" to start with.

Okay, I'll settle for MORE NIGHT than...ANYTHING to break up the monotony of the Main.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

The monotony of the main can be broken by flying in the MED.

When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?
