Skylimit dev section...

Post by G3mInI »

I am highly interested in making maps for skylimit mod. Thinking maybe a section in forums for skylimit discussions, maybe?

Atomic, great work on the maps. Tons of questions I have.

I guess mainly to get me going... terrain images. Any links to find some nice aerial terrain images?

Models -- When I attempt to place a model from skylimit into a .map, it turns out to be a large black box, no model shows. Am I missing something? The .pk3 is in my main and is loaded by radiant.

I notice the terrain is a script_object but has no targetname. Is it necessary for the terrain to be a script_object?

This mod is a huge hit with a bunch of members of our clan. ( http://www.area51moh.com )

Still searching for good server settings for it though. Would like anyone to post a good server.cfg which won't lag with 8 people. As soon as we reach 8 about half will ping 999. This tends to only occur while on an airfield. If you take off and don't move, sometimes the lag will just disappear while in mid-air... other times it won't. Here is our current config file when we run the skylimit mod...

Does anything there stand out that may need to be changed?
Server is hosted by Clanservers and is running on a Linux box.

Let me know if I can tweak any settings.

Thanks,
