Ball_Golf

[Bio]

Hi.
I thought about the fact that in every ball map i have ever played the goals were on the side, so I created something different
This is my first map.
Simply- 2 golf holes- 1 for each team.
The huge flags create a neturall spawn slope


I did some experiment on expert bots and i want to see how real humans play...
Is there a way load this map for a server or should I host my own server?

here is a link for the map's index:
https://altitudegame.com/map/mapDeta...3-e466ebd6d39c

Update 1:
-"golf ball" obstacles added.
-"golf club" ramp addded


Any ideas for improvements will be great

I will host your map for testing. It will be available on Ball Dojo II by 9pm Eastern Daylight time.

It will not be on rotation, you will need to /vote changemap in order to load the map.

I like the concept! Like football but with some actual features. Those flags look welcoming to some nice bounce shots.

Once Noval adds it, I'll give it a go. Hopefully we can fill up Bojo2 to see how it plays with 12 planes.

The map is up and running.

It is 3MB so everyone be patient with the download...

I will attempt to increase the download speed...

EDIT: JestServers (my server host for Dojo II & Tadow!) has the map download setting locked in the config, no increase is possible.

Suggestions:

-Close that spare distance between the flagpole and edge of map.

-Increase map overall height by 500.

-Increase "bounce" factor on flagpoles.

-Could use a few obstacles along the bottom. i.e. golf balls & tees just lying around... etc.

yojimbo! also suggested some sort of ramp on the bottom near the goals, so you could do more trick shots.

overall, gj! i like it

1. look at the update.

2. if the map is too heavy and wont run I'll just lower the graphic quality.
I made things like the ground pattern, the sky paralex to the golf balls and the clubs with "Blender" (2.67) and "Photoshop" (elements 8)
and upload them as PNG files- so thats probably the reason.
making stuff in external editors is faster then struggling with the polygram editor

Updating Map. New map will be available by 10:30am EDT.

Nice additions Bio!

EDIT: Left original ball_golf for comparison. Version 2 map was uploaded as ball_golfv2

This map is way way way too small. Maybe good for 3v3 at most, but also feels really cramped vertically.

[Caz]

I'll echo the suggestion to increase the map size vertically. I like the overall concept of it. I feel like the flag + pole are a bit too forgiving, maybe increasing the flag height w/ the overall height increase of the map might fix that, or possibly making the pole part of the background and having only the flag part of it in play.

A suggestion that I heard last night while we were playing that I thought was a good idea: maybe implement different green elements somewhere (likely in the background?), like fairway, rough, greens, etc.

i tryed download this map but after 50 % i just quit the game cause it took to long for me to download it.
