Post up any user missions you've played and what you thought of it.

I've pretty much finished my first mission. It's called Op Waterfall (Coop 7).
It has:
- respawns in MP or team switching in SP
- full interactive briefings and objectives
- sector highlighting of enemy activity (7 regions)

It's a pretty long infantry only mission, so I haven't even got all the way through yet, but all the logic is there. If you want to try it out, you can download it (140 kb, might need to right click to download). I'll add a few tweaks and more balancing in a few days time. Let me know what you think of it or what could be improved. This is the sort of map I wanted to try together as coop. It's not overly complicated or difficult but has plenty to do and shows that you're making progress with the sector highlighting.

It's currently night based with lots of camp fires to provide light and indicate activity. I might remove the NV goggles since they're almost not needed or maybe remove them just for veteran mode.

I almost got the "time of day" selection working using the param1 type code. It prompts for it, but just doesn't quite pass it on yet, so I've removed it for now. The 1.03 demo PBO files are encrypted/non-standard by the looks of it, so I can't check how it was done.

Gotta love the size of these custom missions. So, when are we getting together to have a run on it?

jeansy · 27th December 2006, 05:23 PM

during the day ive checking out the beer drinking assasins [bda] server, which has some good maps,

dont recommend them during the day as it full of kids swaping abuse, but its a good laugh at some of the pay outs

but to the point, check out the server for some good maps

Got the demo now where do I check it out? Any local servers?

Stompya · 27th December 2006, 08:21 PM

GameArena has a demo sever.

Thanks. Any idea how I access it? How do I find the IP? It doesn't show up in the list of servers in GameArena Cogs.

Stompya · 28th December 2006, 09:24 PM

Shows up in the browser of full version, should in demo as well?

Just checked now. I think the GameArena demo server is down atm.
Odd that it shows up in the full game as "GameArena Armed Assault Server".
Normally you would just sort the in-game browser list by Host or Ping.
