The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Oh yeah guys. I'm working on a ToK KOTH map right now, it's pretty simple, with the temple at the center. Once I get the basics set up I'll be uploading beta for you guys to mess around with.

Hammer is actually really easy to use if you know how to think of things in a programming manner, it doesn't require much actual programming from what I've seen but it's pretty fun and versatile.

Oh yeah, I heard you like pics.

Pics are great. Can't go wrong with pics.

Hey a fellow Egypt lover

For a while that was my main map whenever I decided I was tired of payload maps

Okay, so yesterday I was bored so I downloaded TF2 to see if I could run it, turns out I can.

What do I do now?

Do the training modes, play an offline match or two, then go online and have fun.

Honestly I think doing training tutorials, then jumping straight into playing online is enough. The bots just don't play well on most gametypes so they're not a good representation of how to play.

EDIT: So, how 'bout those secret crashed space rockets that just appeared in the far-away backgrounds of some maps

It happens. Even I still get dominated at least once in most matches and I've had the game for 2 years.

The best advice I can give is to be afraid of dying, and try to stick with other people.

Then again, dying in this game just doesn't seem to be as discouraging as a lot of other games I played... except when the same guy backstabs you 15 times in a row OH MY GOD.

Also, I finished a beta of the ToK map. It actually ended up being a 3 CP map. A few known problems:
-the water gives certain textures a really weird checkerboard design, have no idea why...
-A few areas that normally would be walked on require a jump (you should be able to get up there though)
-I haven't added a block for teams yet so you could just camp in their base and rain them with bullets. Please don't be an asshole and do that.

and there's a few others that I can't think of right now because its freaking 1:39 AM over here.

Anyways its here. If you guys would be willing to host it so you can give me some tips that'd be wonderful.

Oh yeah, and pics are really nice.

Those 15-30 seconds of not being in the fight as you wait to respawn, then walk back to where the action is, make all the difference for your team.

Unless you're playing on an instant respawn server in which case to be frank you're playing the game wrong, this is one of the few times where I am willing to make that claim

Hmm... Luc, can you post your texture files here so we can stick them in our folders to prevent that?

<3 is it already time to break out hammer again

I made a Alien Swarm map, but I haven't tried to make a TF2 map yet.

Actually I'll have to learn how to do new stuff since in Alien Swarm I not only had to not worry about the ceiling but back walls as well.
:/


but yay I finally get to use skybox

New beta is here, with textures

(that means click it)

Place the files in this folder in

/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/[your steam name]/team fortress 2/tf/

Rename the map file cp_Temple_of_Kraden.bsp

EDIT:

The map WILL work 100% fine if you do the following:

-make sure the textures provided (both the .vmt and the .vtf) are placed in .../tf/materials/
-make sure the map is named cp_Temple_of_Kraden.bsp

I HIGHLY reccomend downloading my zip file and just putting them in yourself since I'm not sure if the server has the textures on there properly and it takes a VERY long time for the bsp to download.

And that's that.

Please note that because of testing the default map on ToK is this map so I would recommend downloading it if you want to play on the server (for now at least)

holy crap there has to be some catch to that rocket launcher weapon that isn't mentioned here because otherwise that is ridiculously powerful

It probably will be either a slow-shooting ray, or has a cooldown between shots.

According to pals elsewhere, it really is ridiculously strong. Reclaimed + Black Box crafts it.

Infinite ammo
5 clips
charge shot always minicrits (which therefore ignores damage falloff), will cause random status effects fire to victims, and will disable a building for 4 seconds if struck (at which point who cares if you can't do damage to them, you can just switch weapons too don't forget), but drains all loaded ammo.
no random crits
the rockets can't be reflected by pyro learned that the hard way, though I haven't seen the charge shot reflected yet
seemingly smaller blast radius on the regular shot though

that is insane and I need to get in on this right now before it's nerfed

In other news:

1.) I'm an idiot.
2.) CP_Temple_of_Kraden works now; the error was on my end for not allowing the server to actually load the textures.
3.) See 1.)
