A fun and fascinating map - really like the design and the textures (which don't seem to be used much elsewhere) - makes for a good MH experience :tu:

Awesome map, nice atmosphere for MH.
Didn't knew the AS version as well.
Some nice and unique textures indeed.

Thanks!

Wow, I wasn't aware the original map existed, if you google AS-Approach or AS-Approach.zip you won't find it, not even unrealarchive.org has this map. This is like finding a treasure buried deep underground. Too bad the original map doesn't have bot support :( . Great job on the conversion Buggie :tu:

Only a small thing: the spider should be orthogonal to its net but online it is vertical.
<EDIT>And a question: what is SpecialEvent5 for?

Code: Select all

Begin Actor Class=SpecialEvent Name=SpecialEvent5
     Level=LevelInfo'MyLevel.LevelInfo0'
     Tag="Barrier"
     Region=(Zone=LevelInfo'MyLevel.LevelInfo0',iLeaf=-1)
     Location=(X=-5376.000000,Y=-3136.000000,Z=-192.000000)
     OldLocation=(X=-5376.000000,Y=-3136.000000,Z=-192.000000)
     bSelected=True
     Name="SpecialEvent5"
End Actor
<EDIT2>
Dispatcher3 goes wild: Event 'SpectatorCamMover' does not exist, Event 'WinchFloorMover' covers the lava hole again. :???:

I run v469c server. v436 client and v469c - on both spider rotated properly.

Spider is TriggeredDeath with Mesh. So if you replace it via TriggeredDeathSB, then this possible reason if you miss set Rotation or something else.

It attached to AttachMover4, and to it attached Moon0.
So on client attach chain broken and double movement not happen.

Again you hit the mark - I've never thought that setting rotation for a TriggeredDeath is useful. :gj:

:what:
What has to do TriggeredDeath's rotation with purpose of this actor making monsters to ghost around ?
:omfg:

Barbie says:

Fix for UnrealShare.TriggeredDeath: if touching Actor is a ScriptedPawn, it
will be destroyed.
EXACTLY !
Then... sektor has learned over time a simple lesson: This TriggeredBUG TriggeredDeath can be happily replaced by a Trigger repeating Event action for a SpecialEvent delegated to "damageinstigator" with some damage. If trigger is repeating Event when Instigator is still in radius, it might earn 4 hits per second or more using a decent damage for preventing anything miserable on screen specific to death conditions. For me TriggeredDeath is completely useless...
Like I specified... any of these maps if will capture my attention, it will be converted to MonsterHunt as it should, no buggers, no useless "defender" stuff, no ruined actors coming from factory, just a NORMAL MH map similar to MH-Overlord, MH-AS-RookV3, etc.

At the start. Not solid wall– place the x-loc into and player stuck.

Nothing. :lol:
If you look at the two pics above: the first is how mapper has orientated the spider on the net: orthogonal. Because my Game controller replaces that spider (a TriggeredDeath) but did not respect original's rotation, you see it in second pic that the spider has rot(0, 0, 0).

That's because the *actual* original map is BT-Approach by NuLL: CTF-BT-ApproachV3

So this is in fact a bastardised version of a bastardised version :o
