Description : TeamFortress Classic CTF (Collect the Flags, that is) map
Thanks To : oni, my TFC playing Grrlfriend :)
: Handy Vandal's Almanac, for their AWESOME HL entity references
and links to EVERYWHERE mapmaking related.
: And of course, Valve and the TFC crew. Thanks for getting my
email about the green scoring bug. Without your patch,
this map just couldn't work.
Number of Teams : 4
Recommended # of Players: 12-32
================================================================
New Textures : none
New Sounds : none
Editor used : Worldcraft 2.1
================================================================
INSTALL INFORMATION:
It is designed to unzip to the correct directories if you unzip into the Half-Life directory.
bozz_4f.bsp, bozz_4f.txt, and bozz_4f_info.txt all go in Half-life/tfc/maps/
================================================================
PLAY INFORMATION:
This is a 4Fort. Each team must breach the defences of the other three bases, get to
the flag chamber and steal any and all flags found there. Then, scoring by taking
the flags back to their own base and capturing them in their own flag chamber.
The lights in the central hub next to each wing indicate which flags are in that base.
Team gets 2 points every 15 seconds an enemy flag is held / per enemy flag.
No points are given for retaining your own colored flag.
Team gets 25 points for capturing all 4 flags.
Flag carriers cannot enter spawn / resupply rooms and will be killed by the laser beam
for the attempt.
The forts only have one main enterance plus sniper deck for enterance. With players
spread out over 4 teams, this shouldn't chokepoint things too much considering most
of the time, games will have only 3 to 5 players per team.
================================================================
KNOWS BUGS:
Green team won't earn any points for their team until Valve releases their patch.
This is a bug in the TFC code. Once the patch (1.0.1.3) becomes available, this
map should function without any further problems.
FUTURE MODS:
Perhaps discover new ways to cut the r_speeds down. They're a tad bit on the high side
in some places for my taste.
================================================================
DEDICATIONS:
This map is dedicated to my girlfriend oni, who gave me the ideas and inspiration to get
it done. Without her input it would never have been a reality. This was originally her
map idea but I kinda took the project over, *blush* oops! Maybe someday soon, I'll teach
oni everything about WorldCraft and we'll see a map by her with my name in the Dedications
section :)

A NOTE FROM ONI:
A lot of work went into the creation of this map, and many many hours of headache and
frustration for both me and Frobozz. When we found out about the green score bug, we
thought that 4forts was doomed, which deppressed us much. In addition, this map has 389 out
of 400 entity models.
Frobozz really wanted to make 8 score boards to keep track of all the flags, but in the end,
we had to settle for one. The reason for this is that each score board adds 16 entity
models, and all the rest are used for the map's scoring system (4 flags and 4 teams to
capture them, with 4 sets of ammo packs, armor, medkits, respawns, and 4 sets of lasers in
each fort is ALOT of entity models).
While he did most of the work on the map, I had to put up with his bitching, moaning, and
lack of roleplaying. I was the one who had to give him backrubs after hours in front of
WorldCraft, and I was the one who had to sit and watch TV, and play with my pikachu
virtual pet *sob*, when I could have been doing better things, like receiveing flowers,
getting taken out to eat at a nice resturaunt, or at the very LEAST gotten on the computer
and blown people up in TFC.
In conclusion, you BETTER have a good time playing on this map, or I'm going to come and
blow up your dog with a BIG mirv!!!
(Read: cluster bomb!)
Have fun in the happy hunting grounds!
