Thanks!

I haven't finished it yet, but if I had to describe it, I would say it's like a fight between a really ambitious and talented mapper and an 18 year old engine's limitations, and unfortunately the limitations win as the map progresses.

The map as a whole looks absolutely gorgeous to the point where it might be the best looking UT map I've ever seen, but it comes at the price of a lot of technical problems that hurt the atmosphere and gameplay. It's really easy to see the tree and turret meshes disappear if you look at them a certain way (though that's the engine's fault). Some visual BSP holes are really noticeable, and there are both walls that you can walk through and invisible walls that make it hard to play if you don't memorize where they are. The area with a bunch of skaarj troopers in particular forces you to walk around a tree near a ledge because you can't shoot anything without going around, and the biorifle in the nearby cave is completely blocked off. It's impossible to use a particular lift without cheating because you always bump into something that forces you to go back down.

Right now I'm at the area after the warlord fight. If I press the button to disable the security system, the teleporter is turned off and leaves me with no way to get down without cheating, and if I go through the teleport without turning off the security system, I can't continue.

What I liked:
1. The map looks amazing. The terrain, the meshes, the textures, all of it looks great. I can't state this enough.
2. The gameplay is generally good. The Warlord fight was an interesting take on an old boss. I especially had fun shooting one of those floating buttons and then running into the newly-activated teleporter to avoid a few missiles. Having to kill the controlled Nali in order to stop it from spawning too many Skaarj was cool once I figured it out.
3. The story isn't heavy on messages, but it gets more intriguing as it progresses.
4. The map is really big, but it doesn't feel like I'm retracing my steps that often.

Fake edit: Okay, now I'm at the part where the controlled nali spawns after you open the door that needed you to disable the security system. I kill the nali, but the spawning noise keeps playing and I can't open the next door. I guess I'll ghost through it and update my post accordingly.

Edit: Okay, I finished the second warlord fight. That one was more difficult on account of one of the turrets being on a box that you fall right through.

As a whole I would say this map would be phenomenal if it didn't have some game-breaking technical problems and bugs that make it impossible to progress. There's a lot of good stuff in this map.

I didn't even get that far...


...as that popped up shortly after I loaded the map.

openGL is a superior render engine. You won't have these issues when you switch.

I took a look at the texture that crashed you EG. It's large (1024) but imported correctly. I'm surprised other maps don't crash you like this. You oughta consider switching to oGL. There won't be stuff like this happening.

@OP: It's been a while since I played a map I really enjoyed. 'A while' just got reset last night because I thoroughly enjoyed your map. Looking forward to playing it again this afternoon.

[bob]

wont run in 227 botpack as - infadds.u needs tweaking / recompilation. meh

[Kaka]

I'm trying to figure out the bugs - give me two hours.

[Dr.Flay]

Which version of Infiltration did you get the InfAdds file from ?
