Important!
==========
the times limit for this map is 1 hour or so but u can still limit ii for your mod.cfg
Please read the included file hydro_dam_v2 readme.txt first!
You'll find no RTCW texture in this map. I tried to get as close as possible to the look & feel of the
original map only using textures and models that are part of ET.
Changes from Beta 1
The most important changes are:
- Endgame bug fixed
- It's possible to set a time limit with a server side cvar. Now it's easier to run the map either in stopwatch
mode or in a campaign. See "Setting a time limit" for more information.
- New command map
- The truck is moving when Axis win
- lots more...
Setting a time limit
A time limit can be set to 20,25,30,45 or 60 minutes. This is controlled by a cvar "hydro_timelimit" which
can be set on the server. "sets hydro_timelimit 45" for example, sets the time limit to 45 Minutes. When
the limit is reached, the winning team is chosen randomly (not in Stopwatch mode). Setting the cvar to any
other value than the ones I've listed above will disable the timelimit. The timer will start at 666 minutes
but the map won't end until one team finishes it. If you don't want a timelimit, there's nothing to do for
you ;)
Requirements
Enemy Territory (any version). ETPro 3.1.8 or newer recommended (http://bani.anime.net/etpro/)
to support location names.
Overview
Axis and Allied forces have set up operations on either side of a dam, each must
collect and return an objective to their bases. Access to the objective is by
means of a successful dynamite charge at enemy door. Control of base flags leads
to forward spawn opportunity.
Map features
Balanced playing area on several levels with interconnectivity between levels.
Player can attack from above ground or use the tunnel systems to attack from behind.
Twin mounted mg-42 provide additional defense for bases.
Fog limits view to prevent sniper rule, however there exist several sniper positions.
With thanks to
