=VG= SemlerPDX Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:10 PM Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:10 PM I assume you were equally unhappy when PR Vietnam was incorporated into standard PR? I think it's a smart idea: rather than split the community through 3 different war mods, they're all in one and just dictated by the maplist choices of any given server. So, if there were numbers like the old days, someone could run a WW2 only, or Vietnam only server - or just play the cool maps they like, now and then, alongside normal PR. Well... you can make some people happy all of the time, and all people happy some of the time, but never all of the people all of the time. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=VG= Jaki Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:45 PM Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:45 PM Let's put it this way - people are unhappy even with Vietnam maps most of the time on our server because there either isn't enough people, or they don't like "lack of tech" and don't know how to play without it. Adding another era to PR is a great idea considering you can add more variety to the server with maps and factions, and you can split communities and servers based on those eras, just like Sem said. On the other note, I am looking forward to it! Love WW2 setting, and I am ready for new challenges! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well... you can make some people happy all of the time, and all people happy some of the time, but never all of the people all of the time. So do you think that it will run like a WW2 map? Just like Vietnam map? If so, its fine. Initially I've thought that it will replace completely the PR as we know it. And that happened because I've read recently some comments saying that there are some copyright issues with the "images" of the modern weapons and vehicles.

Spartanish Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:56 PM Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 at 08:56 PM No eastern maps? No soviet faction? 2/10, literally unplayable. Jokes aside though, I am interested, mainly because I much more prefer WW-2, Korean settings (PR Korea War when?) over more modern ones. Probably due to lack of fancy modern gadgets. 13 minutes ago, .Blizzard. said: I like this idea but i do have my doubts about some maps and bots. Let's make then WW2 Muttrah, with Germans in the docks having severals MGs and PAKs aiming at ours incoming LCAs. Mhmm, now when I think about it, would it be possible to make a match between modern faction and ww2 faction, after PR:WW2 eventual release? Could be used for some sci fi event. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=VG= SemlerPDX Posted July 13, 2018 at 03:26 AM Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 at 03:26 AM If it makes anyone feel better, there will likely be no COOP mode for this WW2 stuff - at release, anyway - because no one wants to do the navmesh for all those new maps. So, sadly, unless someone steps up and gets cracking a little faster than a map a month, PR WW2 COOP will be a long way off.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong. The exact stuff above is why I am R-CON now I am working on it with outlawz I have 2 maps meshed already but not anywhere near my likings. We are having the issue that non of the new buildings have a col3 mesh and this means it will simply cutout the entire building and bots can’t go inside. However slowly outlawz is providing me with the col3 buildings so I can let my computer chew on it for few days. However I am quit frankly not really interessted in all the WW2 maps and I might only do 1 or 2 and wait until the deployment update wave has passed so I don’t have to remesh the map all the time. Note that we still have 1 more non supported map been Iron Thunder Beta. (Outpost is in next update). I rather focus on fixing the current 110+ maps/layers than creating new maps.

Double_13 Posted July 13, 2018 at 11:46 AM Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 at 11:46 AM I can teach you the PR editing. But it mainly depends what you want to do. Generating the navmesh is nothing more then having your computer chew on the map for a couple of days and then hope you have no issues in the mesh and that it stays below 700.000 triangles. But the steps you have to do before is the main problem but I got it nearly fully automated. I highly suggest you stay out of this as it is really annoying ass work. The main support would be with fixing the maps in the way of create more spawnpoints for bots. Move assets around and change the temperature values for flag importance. This work only requires you to install the PR editor and have some basic skills with the right click menu and that can be thought in a nights time. For starters start with installing the editor. You have to do every step except the lightmaps. Once you got this running I can show you over teamvieuwer the basics and your set to go editing. most of the how to edit is on the website but it is much quicker to simply show you how to edit and use the documentation next to it. editor files https://www.realitymod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14468 Manuals https://www.realitymod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20862 I am currently on Holliday to zandvoort DTM raceing I will be back Monday. if others are also interested in editing then note it and I shall help you as wel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean you need cpu-power? if it helps I can "borrow" 16 cores, 32 threats, 4ghz ^ ^ ... unless we are rendering ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double_13 Posted July 18, 2018 at 03:44 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 at 03:44 PM It is technically rendering but it only consumes CPU. With technically I mean that we are making an object but the object has no texture we are only calculating the shape of the object. However this step is not the main problem as I also have some servers that can chew on the data for few days it is the possible editing after it. the navmesh mainly needs some cleaning and checking and this takes time. most help would be thinking of new layouts for maps (flag locations/cap order and assets) even just drawing them out on paint/paper would help because I sadly know the limits of each map and this limits my ideas.

Current map layouts don't differ all to much from the deployment versions. The flags have to be already under AI control and incompatible flags (re-)moved. A flag is normally some kind of sight. strategic positions or zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double_13 Posted July 20, 2018 at 05:11 PM Report Share Posted July 20, 2018 at 05:11 PM Well true but I can’t do this on every map because it should still be playable on non VG servers. But even then having a different twists to maps is something fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
