Right heres my first HL2DM Map =))

seriously though - was stunned by HL2dm - and decided to make a lil twist on it - Buggy Racing :)

Now the map is still beta - but its a complete circuit (circuit as in turns and straights and tunnels - not your amercian oval crap :p)

Just raced my mate on it and tense is not the word - 3 lap race - lead first lap - behind second lap - and he ****ed up on third - i thought i had race won but the **** used that cannon on the buggy and killed meh :-(

the map is rather large :-s 13 mb lol - as this is my first map no doubt me have ****ed up somewhere or maybe 10 buggies isnt good for map sizes - all i knw is that its a hella fun map and anyone wanting it is welcome to it :)

Firefox - Good choice!!

Ok, now this is cool. I love the idea of racing buggies, it would be just as good to do a swamp buggy race!! Woot Woot!!!

Did you say where the file is?

Later,
 
nopes i didnt - if anyone wants the map - add me to msn - by clicking the lil msn icon there - the map is still in beta - but not bad for 8 hours work - i've got so many ideas but im thinking of turning this into a mod -

P.s. if anyone can host the file i'd be much appreciative :D

Who Is This Then ;)?



Okies the map has been majorly fixed - still only 20 hours of work and it looks rather gorgeous :).
Filesize has been DRASTICALLY smashed - its only 3.6mb now and already very popular....

Things to come....

(Am making a buggy racing mod)

start/finish line banner
starting lights
automated start system
HUD buggy speedometer
HUD Boost gauge
Tweaked Buggys - 650HP


okies well its not quite a DM match but its different ;)

Hope u all enjoy it - Dave
 
is this mod gonna have different modes?
like race against each other and against time?

maps could be interesting with obstacles :)
 
how about adding some explosive barrels and buggies with guns or some more physics stuff?
 
someone should make like a mario kart mod! :farmer: :cheers:
 
Can i have the map? If it's not on a link, PLEASE plz pleasor plesie send me to my email or in msn : [email protected] (it can handle 15 MB of attachments ) .
It looks just awsome, i can't wait, i must play it!!
 
okies okies - right for those wanting the latest version of the map (remembering there are still issues!) then ill bee setting up a server and u can autodownload

Don't expecting great pings this is all coming from my 256k upload - but hey you want the map :)


Current Issues -

Some areas of the map are hopeless to walk on - but FINE to drive on ALL of map...
Solution - replace floor after messing about with ground noise.....
Eta - 1-2 Hours


Current BuggyRace version v0.45
 
You need to host it somewhere... alot of us don't have MSN and I want this map. Bad.

Not to mention that if you host it, it will become popular and you'd be able to join full buggy races.


EDIT: Typed this before your last post, NM. Guess I'll have to wait until I get home to grab it.
 
_Update_

Thats the ground lag problem fixed - **** knows what it was but its gone anyway - replaced ground with dirty asphalt/ concrete which has also appeared to give the cars better grip - expect an official release tomorrow

Have also added a surrounding for da G-Man and some lights at the start grid
 
man i need to do something like this. im so bored but i have no idea how to make maps!
 
Holy shnaz, sweeet. Can't wait till you host this somewhere so we all can get it. :D

Next you can make a hoverboat race map. :)
 
The textures need alot of work before I'll be interested, the maps ugly.
 
man i wanna play!! the sever is full right now... someone with a good pc or that has a server should put on this map!!!

man i just got in and was downlaoding map when it shut down =(
 
its funny this was said, but when i saw the map overview with the dark and light areas, i really thought of mario kart 64.. no idea why, i think there was a map like this though
 
BUGGYRACE is GO ! :D

Thats right - I've spent the last 48 hours slaving away at this map and its finally here ! :D

And a few points

1. It's my first map - be gentle lol
2. It was made for racing so if its a crap DM map - well boohoo :p
3. Im rather hyper on caffiene so im off to bed...

Tell me what ya think - heres linky.

thats dedication, downloading now and hope to play it soon

will this be downloadable automatically over steam? cause other maps are

will they all be like this now?

edit: ah right you answered that already :)
 
yes - ****ing pain in the arse it was that auto-download - here was me trying out the map in peace and suddenly some other twat appears - and your just like errrrrrrr testing ?
 
Just thought I'd put that the final file size is 4 mb - Now who wants a race :D
 
Me! is this thing manual? no good at gears.. :LOL:
but seriously me

Click to expand...

I'd be happy to host hl2dm maps on a web server hosted in a datacenter in NY. I sponsor the US servers for hl2.net and I happen to have a good deal of bandwidth to spare.

One thing though...I would like to be able to put these maps on the linux servers I run and most maps so far crash linux servers because they aren't compiled with linux physics support (I believe you have to use the -linuxdata switch with vbsp.exe for this). As long as I can run them, I'll host them =)

PM me or use the messenger or email functions of the board if interested. The maps would be hosted at leetnet.com/hl2/etc/etc at no charge or your own subdomain or free .info domain if you wish you pay for hosting.
 
Hi =) where do i put the file and how do i play it? :$
 
Right I can make a linux enhanced version @ monday - Im spending the weekend with the girlfriend so i won't be able to do much....

Map is to be placed in Half Life 2 Deathmatch/HL2MP/Maps/
 
looks good i look forward to pwning on it :sniper: :sniper: :sniper:
