I'm sure FD/IR/Waldo or any of the more experience mappers can give a more precise answer, but the short answer is that paramode no longer exists in DoD.

Sorry, but its true. :(

Now, that doesn't mean you can't find some way to get around that, but I'll leave that to those who know wtf they're talking about. :)

Courtest of Glidias

They removed para entity support in 1.2.

But of course, with a set of entities:
1. dod_capture_area (covers the entire map. link this to a Master. Should be Off be default. When On, this is used to determine whether the entire map consist of ONLY axis troops or ONLY allied troops, thus determeining the winner as such a situation allows the area to be captured. The team that captures this win. )
2. dod_capture_point (to control attacking team's spawns)
3. dod_point_relay (for dod_capture_point)
4. dod_timer (set this to 30-60 sec. When it ends, it triggers the multimanager below.)
5. multimanager (triggers dod_point_relay which disables all attacking team's spawns so they can no longer spawn. Also triggers the Master to activate dod_capture_area)

You can have para gameplay.

I did this light setting a year ago for a map I never finished that used the full moon sky. I'm not sure what it is like, but I do remember I liked it at the time. So you can give it a try.

Brightness - 0 0 160 -100
Diffuse Brightness - 192 192 192 50
