[Map Pack] Mr. X's X Pack and stuff

[Max]

I suggest one of theeeese

MRXDM01 (so it's not only one letter difference from IDMs)
MRXWHO (like the original, MMX(threeletters))

Also MM10BLD and MM10WIL5 should stay as they are probably.

[Mr. X]

Yeah, but I figured the one letter difference thing would make it easier.  Any more opinions on this (or anything else for that matter)?

Oh, I should mention something before somebody points it out:  Yes, I realize the Napalm Bombs in Whomp's Fortress do not work in the water part.  While I did not expect this when I put it in, I kind of like it since it acts like a safer zone against Napalm spam.

I also realize using Time Stopper in Under the Sea makes you invulnerable to the spikes while time is stopped.  While I knew this ahead of time, when I encountered the strange lag during testing, I didn't want to add yet another script until I knew for sure the stage would be ok lagwise (which from what Korby has told me, it was relatively lag free online).  It's not too big of a bug though since it really doesn't gain you a tactical advantage and you'd die once the time stopper effects were over if you were standing in it.

I was in the tubes and found this:

Think that can assist you in creating "sliding floors"?

NICE MAKING OMG

[Ivory]

So for all you hosts out there, I've just confirmed that the X Pack and the I Pack are both compatible with each other and you can host both of them at the same time. Since they both only added Triple Blade as a new weapon. So yeah.

Great pack Mr X.

I can tell you know that you can't do this and probably never will be able to. Sliding doors (also known as polyobjects) can only be infinitely tall, and have some huge limitations.

I know nothing. Doom Builder isn't my field.

[Mr. X]

CutmanMike proves what I already suspected for the sliding...things in Whomp's Fortress:  They aren't doable.

Also, I was hoping the I Pack would be compatible.  Thanks, Ivory!

As for the Easter Egg music in Whomp's Fortress:  I think I can say without clicking the link absolutely no chance in Hell I would ever put that in any map ever.

I've thought an alternative that IS doable, but will take forever. Make the "sliding" blocks by spliting that single sector into many thinner sectors, which will lower and raise so fast that will gve the impression the floor is sliding in and out the wall. As for the tiles around the tower... That would take a different approach, as they are Yoku Blocks.

[Mr. X]

It might give the impression it's popping out of the wall, but if you're standing there you'd just go up with the blocks.

No, I'm not talking about the tower. I'm talking about the moving floors in the beginning, the ones you made go up and down.

[Mr. X]

Actually, I thought you were talking about the walls with faces that pop out.  I see, I'd have to switch textures and change death settings while doing it.  That's a maybe, although I don't mind how it is now since that's a more user friendly stage.

[CopShowGuy]

Now this, the I-Pack, and the CS-CMP packs need to merge!

[Mr. X]

But I like being in charge of my own pack!  The problem with merging is as soon as I get enough error reports, I can fix it and upload a new version on my own time as it is now.  With them all put together, I've got to fix it, send it to somebody else (probably Mess) who would probably have to wait until Ivory is done updating maps and then wait for other people to update their maps and it all becomes one big mess (not to say everybody but me is slow, this is hypothetical).  Plus, with the fighting mess that classes has become, I want total control over my projects right now.

That's not to rule out the possibility altogether, though.

[Ivory]

I have similar feels as Mr X. I want to be in control of my map pack. Merging is a consideration, but I wouldn't want to merge. The I and X Packs are compatible, so I don't really see a problem with them being separate. Especially since I intend to update the I-pack to v3 to fix a lot of map related issues.
