presenting: skate
sup guys, heres something new.
Skate is a mod developed by 2bak and n0izie, this is the first official skate map.
The settings for playing skate maps are:
sv_airaccelerate "100"
sv_gravity "0"
developer "0"
you can watch a run on the map here:

This mod and this map is me and n0izies baby, please respect us as the authors. Enjoy
EDIT: feel free to move this thread to any sub forum, i posted it here cause i thought it would be of interest to the whole kz/surfing/hns/whatever community.
2bad its 100aa but nice idea of straferace
06/05/2011 02:26didnt like at all, nothing new, there are some maps at cosy with straferace, the only difference is sv_air. but gj for the idea
looks rly fun, you should put out a few more maps with more varity soon so people get the potential of this mod :>

Pretty much! Also, you can add more detailed obstacles for increasing the difficulty, though this map looks hard enough. :D
Lookin' forward to such maps!
Well done, guys. :)
06/05/2011 14:51(edited 06/05/2011 14:54)gj for creating the map, but its not really new... take a look at kz_xj_rockblock's minimap "straferace" (also there are skateboards in other minimap, func_vehicle).
I dont like gravity0 and aa100. You could do like in rockblock (trigger_push up) or with func_friction or even with trigger_gravity, so you dont need to change gravity. And aa100... just kinda lame.
ah, i thought it was something brand new..
i have nooooo fucking idea why you would call aa100 lame, it opens up totally new possibilities, its not like its cheating. but i guess thats just a surfers point of view.
thanks guys, i wont be mapping anymore but theres 2 betas out, one with more variety like ledges and stuff, and one like the one spr1n described, where you have to stick to narrow paths or fall off them
I present you this http://cosy-climbing.net/maps.php?id.1368
06/05/2011 17:13(edited 06/05/2011 17:15)well yeah its just point of view. default is still aa10 and imo to change it there should be a good reason. It makes sense for surfing, but not so much for the rest.
aa100 for me like playing kz maps with gravity 750, and pretending its some new gameplay or mod. Sure it opens up some possabilities, but still it just makes all easier and lame.
But... thinking about it again I admit aa100 actually makes sense in this case since its very speedy map with sharp turns
mmmm....likez :D
the music is so porno
Reminds me a bit of surfing, but if the maps get's a bit variated it would be cool. You can definitely add heightdifferences and slide up the air and down again with that speed! This concept could be developed, but right now it's a bit too primitive for my taste.
my buddy made plugin for this..

looks really cool with this plugin
Why do I recongnize this map? Think I saw a run on atleast a similiar map few years back!
I doubt that.. thats huge coincidence if thats true :DD
The gravity trick is a very commonly used method to practise strafing with, and is not really new for most of us. If I am not mistaken, then there should be a very old guide that mentions about the gravity trick to practise your strafing on.
However, the concept of developing it to a mod and going further with it, like making maps and such could be new and interesting. But I fear that it would run into several problems, like for instance:
- Limited mapping ability (hence gravity 0) and they would probably look very flat and repetitive over time.
It also makes no sense to have developer on 0? Does this mean there is not restriction to fps and you can freely decide your own desired fps, or as high you can go?
That would definitely leave the competitive scene out of balance, since anyone with a decent enough rig could have a huge advantage over those who don't.
I need more convincing though, since I have my doubts about this right now.
EDIT: I am quite certain that there have been maps made already with this concept. Probably not one big map only focusing on it, but like one area/room. Didn't hm^'s communitybhop map have exactly that on his filler rooms, but the only difference was instead of gravity it was push?
Higher fps makes it get stuck more often.. all ledges with this plugin is like surf/slide and fps 131 is optimal-- going over is just frustrating.. Also we havent limited anything atm.
and ye we know theres been similar things but its been very limited with push triggers and gravity changing etc.. with this plugin you got more freedom etc(you can go everywhere trigger_push limit youre movement only forward and gravity change you cant do any ledges etc)), thats why he started developing this plugin..
E: oh i think you missed my latest posts..
this thread is old and plugin/map i posted here is tha latest stuff :P
Imagine that if we have a tournament with this mod, it's gonna be exciting, just like car racing!
