================================================================ Title : Lynchburg Filename : Lynchburg.ZIP Author : Nowhere_Man Email Address : Nowhere_Man@nightmail.com Description : A large western town with lots of detail. I had already created one version of this level but never published it because the frame rate dropped to the FLOOR in alot of it. I trashed it and started over, eliminating subsectors and Gap sectors, and reducing the number of sectors you could see at once overall. The result is what you have here. Still not the fastest level around, but it is more than just boxes with a door and window. There are A LOT of secret passages and rooms in this level!!! I allowed them to show in the map to stop some folks from bellyachin'. (They do this anyway because most of the time thats where I shoot 'em). Still some of them are hard to see on the game map so look close. Pay special attention to the outside Hotel and Saloon. This is a work of art. I SQUEEZED every inch of space out of it for passages. If you have any trouble finding them all, write me and I'll try to help you find them. The idea was to create a level with detail and TONS of room for strategy, and not just some boxs to run around and KILL KILL KILL. We have played this map plenty of times with our group. Use Winsockets, because just as Paleface proved on his site, it is MUCH FASTER! Tests were conducted with 6 players TCP/IP on a 350 MHZ AMD Server. The machines ranged from a 400 MHZ speed burner, to a 200 MHZ model T. I would also suggest that if you have a non-voodoo card like I do, that you use the MGL drivers. Paleface is right about this also, they will improve your framerate. Glide-GL is just a proprietery Open-Gl which will always be faster than Direct Bloat. Anyway if you think back to the 15 to 20 fps we were getting when the game came out, things have improved a bunch!
