Intro
Hi this thread is basicly my way of not doing a massive trigger list i need to do, and therefore should be quite enclusive (lol)

Im making a map withh a friend called Winterspirit called Aliens Ressurection,
Inspired by a night playing Aliens 2 by callex (gr8 guy callex) i decided i should impliment all the odds and ends of trigger and usefull items moddels etc into a new aliens map, and although ive only seen alien Vs predator out of the quadrilogy i thought of a cool plot to go with *aliens ressurection*

in an attempt to keep some of my *cooler* ideas secret before the maps realese and competition entry, i will not disclose some of the features of the map, that i consider very origional but here are their aliases

PROGECT X, something ive dreamed of seeing in a marives v (insert nasty name+nasty model here)

TERRAIN FEATURE Y an idea scabbed of something, still gotto ask him how its done... vv cool ... if anoying in parts
Competiton

After thinking up a cool plot and jotting key points on a scrap of paper i had lieing around i got a message from winterspirit, a person in my clan, id put a post on the clan msg thing saying i needed someone to terrain Baghdad in my map Blood and Sand (a map dedicated to people fighting in the middle east. for whatever reason)
and he said would you hlike me to do some terraining for you, im v good. and so i told him about this new map idea. and he said hed love to do it, and that he would need some models, so i loaded up hive to go look in the reasorces when i saw *2 PERSON MAPPING CONTEST* and so i entered the map and our names, and then had a look for some models he wanted.

Plot

ok heres the idea, loosely based on movie aliens ressurection in that its about scientsts ressruresting the alien threat for a wepaon

scientists on some far of planet creat and moniter a super smart alien , they plan to use it as a weapon, they start breeding it, but it escapes , and they contain it on the lower levels of the underground base. the scientists get eaten.
you are sent to the planet as a squad of rsf commandos with your (PROGECT X) to retrive the wepons bveing developed in the base, nasty smaryt aliens with spaceships tanks and lazers isnt good right ? and if posible eliminate the aliens and save any survivors (yeah right)

extra features

extra features from any other marines vs bad guys map

PROGECT X

A plot that happens in the map, rather than being all this stuff happened , and now ur gonna have a big fight

secondary objectives, such as retriving the various weapons, and even utilising them

sniper scope (see wendsday) << after this t4hread every marines vs whatever the hell thats supposed to be maps r gonna have that in i bet, and they wont have to debate wheather they shud coz of comp either, maybe i shud retype the whole thing myself, and then do anything i wanna copy after entered for compotition

desent cinematics

decent explinations and tutorials

lack of empty space (do u find that nhalf these maps have massive empty areas... i find it enoying, they know they can edit map and camera bounds dont they ?)

Map logg

(HOW MANY LS IN LOGG?LOG ?)

Day 1
Friday

^^ intro happend

winter got straight onto the terrain with only a few pointers from me, hes realy good.

i started trigger testing for PORGECT X and some of its functions, it was a screw up but i got some cool stuff out of 7 hours, and some good ideas

Day 2
Saturday

after 7 hours of attempts to make some of ther main functions of PROJECT X worka ten minute burst of inspiration lead to me making the cameras for PRJ X work

winter did a bit of terrain but then went somewhere... havnt seen him since ...

Day 3
Sunday

saw various weapon system triggers and spells on hive, after scabbing a load of sounds and icons off one of them , i set about working out how to make *marines* switch to having various weapons , and said effects

after making that work , i imported various triggers from my PROG X tests and began fitting it together professionaly

Day 4
Monday

still no sign of winter, maybe hes dead

saw sniper scope spell, debate wheather i sould try and make it , or just import tiggers, it will look like i did it anyways ? http://hiveworkshop.com/forums/showthread.php?p=298937#post298937

begining to set up tutorial on how to use PROG X for players, began implimenting ideas and fiddling with stuff that i thought wud b cool on my *IDEAS PAD*
