.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Code: Select all

This is a set of additions to the original mod by jv_map call "Snow Contest". This mod allows only the use of snowballs in the game. A new
map name "Backyard" has been added allond with an axis and allies snow skin. The compass and crosshair has been removed
to add to the realism.

NOTE: This mod may alter the gameplay of singleplayer and custom maps. (See "Info For Developers")

To install: extract User - Snowball.pk3 to your \main folder
To uninstall: remove User - Snowball.pk3 from your \main folder.


Info For Developers:
-------------------------------
To add this to user-made maps:

In the map's .scr file add:

'exec global/snowcontest.scr'

below 'level waittill spawn'.

You can specify whether you want 
scripted snow in your map using the following line:

level.addsnow = 1

This line needs to be added between 'level waittill spawn' and 
the 'exec global/snowcontest.scr' line.

You may want the snow contest script to 
adjust fog, sky and ambient sound settings server-side. To do this, type:

level.snowmood = 1	

between 'level waittill spawn' and 'exec global/snowcontest.scr'.

Example:

level waittill spawn

level.addsnow = 1
level.snowmood = 1

exec global/snowcontest.scr


Disabling Scripted Snow
-------------------------------
In case the scripted snow is somehow causing troubles to you, it can be 
disabled server-side. To disable the snow on a dedicated server, type the following 
directly in the server console:

sc_nosnow 1

Or, to make mohaa remember not to use scripted snow:

seta sc_nosnow 1

If you have rcon access to a server, type:

rcon sc_nosnow 1

If you're hosting a game yourself on a non-dedicated server, make sure first to enable 
'console' in the advanced options. Press 'ok' and bring down the console with the ~ key.
Then type:

sc_nosnow 1

When you've performed any of these actions, the snow should disappear after a short while.
You can 'restart' the snow by simply setting 'sc_nosnow' back to '0'.

At any time the amount of snow clients see is dependent on their setting for 'effects detail'
in advanced options ('max' means most snow).
