It's fine for me, I will tell you when I know I'm going to test it and you can join if you are able. Btw I will make a video of one of the 12 player test games and upload it to youtube.
EDIT: Here is one more picture

YEY! Your Alive!

I miss you so much! I thought you are having a vacation or something that does not include in this map of yours )

 

[Jaakko]

I will be testing ZAF 11.9-12.9 with 12 players starting at the moment 11.9 2 pm GMT +2 in bnet northrend server. If it is a bad time I might change the starting time but if I do so I will mention it before 6.9. I will make one zaf video from the testing and release the first version soon after. At the moment I might need a few more testers but I will know more accurately later on.

 

[warpetzz123]

How big is this MAP?

 

[I3lak]

Keep up the amazing work... All the way from America, fans are waiting for this map to be released. Keep up the great work. I was also wondering is it possible for some Us West/East to test the map. I want to try it so badly haha. I am a map maker myself, so maybe I will be inspired by stuff, which later makes me think and edit my own stuff... Well great job thus far, and you are doing AMAZIN!!!!

 

[warpetzz123]

BLA BLA BLA Half of the Philippines were waiting for these! I just spread about this map last month ago. )

 

[Jaakko]

How big is this MAP?

The file size is almost 8 Mb and the map size is 256x256 from which playable size is 236x236.

I was also wondering is it possible for some Us West/East to test the map.

I think it will be enough for me to just test it with a group for the first version. You don't have to wait long before I release the map after that so you can try it too soon.

Hey! Can I ask you a favor?

[warpetzz123]

I gonna also make a map about Hackers and I will titled it
Wall of Hackers :

) so that if their name will be there, they will stop using hacks )

 

[Jaakko]

I don't know if all people start telling me names, I can't use them unless there is some real proof the people use hacks. Btw what is flood hack? It's possible to ban the usernames from the map that use hacks but I don't want to do that unless there is good proof and not sure what I do after that.

 

[warpetzz123]

XD I will find a proof for u!

 

[I3lak]

Who cares lol, why would you ban someone, just let them be dumb, if it comes to a point they are ruining other peoples fun, like you get 12 notifications then you can warn him or probation... or even BAN ON UR BOTS!!

 

[warpetzz123]

Ehhhhhhhhhh....... I am just angry to those hackers because when we will play, they keep
telling reasons even they are really hackers. That why I hate hackers!!!

 

[Toriad]

Such passionate hate against hackers

On another note, when's the official release scheduled?

 

[I3lak]

Lol haha... I second that... patiently waiting isnt fun... nor easy!!

 

[Legendel]

Still here Jaakko if you need me. Haven't seen donkey in awhile =(

 

[Jaakko]

On another note, when's the official release scheduled?

I'm hoping somewhere very soon after 12th of September, that is if the testing goes alright which I think should happen. After the testing I make one video first and when it is ready I upload both the map and the video. Making the video shouldn't take more than a few days.

Still here Jaakko if you need me. Haven't seen donkey in awhile =(

I think there will be a spot left so can you come play 11.9? I send donkey an email a few days ago and I'm waiting for a reply.

 

[Toriad]

Nice. May I suggest you upload the beta version for public testing before the release?

Like, one week before the official release, or something.

 

[Jaakko]

So do you mean by this that the saving and loading of codes is disabled like in all my test maps?

 

[Dr. House]

It's fine for me, I will tell you when I know I'm going to test it and you can join if you are able. Btw I will make a video of one of the 12 player test games and upload it to youtube.
EDIT: Here is one more picture

where did you get that graffiti model? btw nice screen

 

[supertoinkz]

Russian site?

 

[Toriad]

If that's the test map, sure.

 

[Jaakko]

Russian site?

Yes, from xgm.ru. I had asked them some time ago if they could make graffiti models, I don't know if he remembered that but I got useful models for the map.

If that's the test map, sure.

Well at the moment I'm still updating the map so uploading a test map would be an old version quite soon. It's not long before the first version and I think that is the easiest way for me.

 

[Dr. House]

a ok xgm.ru ftw

 

[I3lak]

I am jealous can I see the test map still... I wont show people if you dont want me too. Just my bro on LAN

It's not a long time anymore until the first version is finished so I think everybody can wait that small time, that would be easiest way for me.

 

[warpetzz123]

By the way, When it will be released? September ?? , ???? ::: Time : ?? : ??

 

[Jaakko]

By the way, When it will be released? September ?? , ???? ::: Time : ?? : ??

I think at the moment the latest time would be September 19th.

 

[warpetzz123]

Can you pass me on September 18 , 2010 before you gonna sleep )

 

[Jaakko]

I'm changing the testing date to this Sunday from Saturday. So 12.9 2 pm GMT +2 on Northrend bnet with hopefully 12 players. Reply here if you can join and I pm you the chat channel where to come at that time. The requirement is that it will take at least a few hours for testing, most likely an hour for one game. As many games as possible should be played but not longer than about 6 hours unless people want to.

 

[Blackrockorc]

im so down

 

[Jaakko]

Looks like most of the people who I thought would come haven't yet for some reason. If somebody wants to play now then pm me here.
EDIT: Ok the testing ended and I will play next weekend again.

 

[Lil_Scubby]

Aw you played so early in the morning i wanna test

 

[Jaakko]

Aw you played so early in the morning i wanna test

I can pm you when I know that I will test next time.

I will be ready to release the game as soon as I can remove the main issue which is server splits aka disconnections during multiplayer game. This means I need a lot more testing until I have successfully gotten rid of this irritating problem.

 

[Toriad]

Well, it's almost September 19, will it be released according to schedule?

 

[warpetzz123]

It is already September 19 , 2010 --- 11:10 Am in Philippines where I am living right now!!!

 

[Jaakko]

Well, it's almost September 19, will it be released according to schedule?

No because of this last problem I have.

I will be testing zaf today 6 pm +2 gmt on northrend server. If somebody has few hours at that time and can test the game then send me a pm here.
EDIT: The testings are finally over for today. As results almost everything seems to be working fine for release except that annoying dc bug which happened almost each game, I really need to find the source of this problem by taking a closer look at triggers.

 

[Jaakko]

I will be testing zaf this Thursday 5 pm +2 gmt on Northrend bnet. Anybody who wants to test is free to come.
EDIT: The testing is over and good news looks like the dc bug is gone, I still want a few more games to verify this tomorrow. Hopefully I will be able to upload the map soon after this weekend.

 

[frostloh]

Oh yes!!! Finally...

 

[Jaakko]

I'm currently making the resources credits list. I still have three small things to check and I stumbled upon a few models that I will test. I'm adding one more item that gives vision of an area and it's a flare. These changes should be done today and then I will test tonight. I can't say yet when I'm uploading the map but it should be latest next weekend because I might want to test tomorrow too and then I was supposed to make a youtube video of one of the replays.

 

[I3lak]

May I test or still only your realm????

 

[Jaakko]

May I test or still only your realm????

I test only in northrend realm, the map should be out in a few days anyway.

 

[Jaakko]

Download the map here

 

[Jaakko]

v1.02 will include bug fixes and a few new things, for example this new coolant reactor that will be part of a mission/event.

EDIT: I don't know yet when v1.02 is ready but I will need a week or two at least.

 

[Marc Mamales]

epic map.

 

[DEAD FiSH]

Looks good, keep up the good work!

 

[Miss_Foxy]

This looks great on multiplayer already, any intention of creating a single player map about this too, in order to add a lot more content?

I don't think I will since I guess multiplayer is more popular than single player. I'm adding more content to the multiplayer and I'll have the next version soon done. I think almost anything can be still added to the map except files that take much space. So there might not be many new models anymore unless I remove music or loading screen but my intention is to add more content with missions and other things.
