Re: CTF-XV-Towers-of-Power-v1
Yeah, the Manta does bounce! Not a lot with EXUOpenGL but all the time with D3D9.
Perhaps the lift up to the flag could/should stay up for just a little longer? Just about work out wthere one is before it goes back down - perhaps one gets used to it but even after several goes it's difficult to get off unless one stands right on the edge of the lift.
The minimum FPS in this map is lower - though the max and average are slightly higher - using EXUOpenGL in 469c RC3

With D3D9 for me it's almost unplayableScriptLog: 26897 frames rendered in 700.04 seconds. Min 11.97 Max 48.59 Avg 38.42 fps.
With OpenGLScriptLog: 2179 frames rendered in 128.03 seconds. Min 7.83 Max 24.00 Avg 17.01 fps.
ScriptLog: 7905 frames rendered in 362.53 seconds. Min 15.65 Max 24.00 Avg 21.80 fps.

It is exact port of map. So time there set short intentionally.You need be aware of it, and stay at lift end (as bots do) or use lift jump from center (if want fly high).
Sadly in UT no static meshes, so it goes be BSP with awful performance. I even not port some decorative stuff.
Possible if someone can import pharooh statues as usual meshes, it can be better for fps. my attempt do this via UTPT produce garbage in UT.
Possible Monk statues can be used instead, but it change mood of map.

Re: CTF-XV-Towers-of-Power-v1
Yeah, so in future I will indeed take more on the lift and stick to the side.
The Monks statues would certainly not fit in well and wouldn't look good - the pharaoh statues are pretty impressive, shame they are not meshes.
Nice conversion, plenty of action.

Re: CTF-XV-Towers-of-Power-v1
UT does have static meshes, they're just regular old meshes, and I think those you have to import into MyLevel somehow. Hard to do without the OldUnreal tools.
"Everyone is an idea man. Everybody thinks they have a revolutionary new game concept that no one else has ever thought of. Having cool ideas will rarely get you anywhere in the games industry. You have to be able to implement your ideas or provide some useful skill. Never join a project whose idea man or leader has no obvious development skills. Never join a project that only has a web designer. You have your own ideas. Focus on them carefully and in small chunks and you will be able to develop cool projects."

Re: CTF-XV-Towers-of-Power-v1
I already do that. And it stored on map (if not vanished), but no any profit. fps is same only start glitches. Also lost nice collision. So I left brushes.
