I was clearing out all my old unfinished maps so I thought I would post them instead of deleting them.
You can do what ever you like with them just my name to any readme
this map has several problems and it is uncompiled
It does compile, eventually and I've added the log so you can see the errors

Please forgive me ... I'm old :confused:

well im guess that in that zip is an rmf file, openable with Hammer. and hes basicaly saying that if any mappers want they can download what hes done so far, finish it and release it providing they put his name in the credits.

I'm confused, the file is "dod_town2.rar" whats .rar? shouldn't it be .rmf or .map? I can't open this....please explain.

.rar - rar archive, openable with winrar and various other archive programs

ok, yeah I don't use rar archives, why an archive inside a zip? geez...too much trouble

04-29-2003, 04:37 PM
Yeah, can somebody set up a zip without some archive inside?

If any of you had even the slightest idea of how compression algorythms wokr youd easilly realize that putting a compressed folder into a compressed folder, will only give you something larger that what the best compression algorythm gave you. In laymans terms DONT MULTI ZIP/RAR/ACE. but meh. i like to make their own wokr. tis a very genrous offer though buddy.

The only reason the rar file is in the zip file is that forums won't accept rar files and winzip wouldn't compress it enough.

I thought this was a strange idea for a thread and i'm surprised so many people are interested in this map

One error I've noticed is that hl crashes this map if you try and change teams without being killed also the flags don't work because i didn't know how to do that at the time

it uses the kami wad pack the really big one I can't remember exactly and what ever wads came with dod 2.0
