================================================================ Title : King of the Hill by Lindow & GoJo Filename : kinghill.zip Email Address : cooperjd@one.net GoJo : jeremy_matthews@hotmail.com Lindow How this map came to be : Lindow and I met by accident in IRC. He asked if I'd like to look at a map he was working on. He stated that it was experimental. Of course, I said, "Yes." After looking it over in complete amazement of how Lindow had used polygon techniques in his slope sectoring, an idea emerged for a KFC map based on the old kid's game of "King of the Hill." I asked if I could use his map as a base for this. Of course, he said, "Yes." While tinkering, I remembered that Karrde had made a custom chicken (scotty dog) for his map, "The Eye." Using his work to learn from, I made the crown. Lindow, who continues to tinker with the guts of OL, found a way to change the sound associated with getting the crown. The last surprise was also Lindow's. Load it up. Play it. Get the surprise when you exit. Description : KFC for which the map was almost exclusively intended should be fun, but requires one simple rule. Whoever gets the crown (modified chicken) first, must proceed to the hill top. Once past the hedge, the hedge becomes an impassable barrier. In this way, the crown stays near the throne, letting the carrier be "King of the Hill." To encourage this, in KFC, the bungalows are blocked off by posts. That's where all the goodies are. :DM, CTF, and Teams are the opposite. The top of the hill is blocked by invisible barriers, and the bungalows are open. There are only 4 places where the flags for CTF will appear. The position in the bungalow will be the same for the opposing flag. It will help to pay attention to the bungalow colors to stay oriented. To help this, you can hear the surf on only one side which matches the beach, which can be seen over the impassable fence. Someone with a super system may be able to get on top of the rock barriers. Don't complain about FPS if you get up there. Hehe, that's why I made them that way. Additional Credits to : Alpha tester - Paleface. Beta testers - Kohna, RR-Duster, Karrde Special thanks to Karrde not only for the "chicken lesson" mentioned above, but for helping identify a V3 glitch that would have gone undetected. ================================================================ Difficulty Settings : n/a New PCXs : All may be used with a nod to the author: Grass - Karrde. Lawn07 - ANV_Spidey linwter, olwon (mod) - Lindow the rest - GoJo New NWXs : All are by Gojo. Feel free to use any with nod. Note that barrier is a ceiling hugger so it can be easily layered as a game specific barrier. The weapons in this map regen often and give more ammo. I wanted to avoid a littered look, yet have plenty of ammo for survivors. New WAVs : chicken2 mod and surfgojo use 'em if ya want with a nod. Both by GoJo New 3DOs : No New ITMs : See above NWX New Cutscenes : No * Construction * Base : Editor(s) used : LawMaker ver 1.0 Beta 3 Known Bugs : The only killer for this map would be for someone to get blasted over the barrier with the flag, in a game of CTF. This is unlikely, but it might be a good idea to enable cheats just in case. This way, someone could OLAIRHEAD over just to retrieve the flag. * Copyright / Permissions * Authors MAY use this level as a base to build additional levels and may use any custom additions.
