Other thanks to:
CGTextures.com -- Many great textures for just about anything.
Ward Zwart -- Creator of the font used for some decals.
Epic Games -- Creating the whole game, being willing to release their tools, plus for the track Organic
I ripped from UT99.
The rest of The Reliquary team -- Recreating the Bombing Run gametype, one of the many things left out
of UT3...
Laambo -- For also creating my sound cue. UT3 ED wouldn't properly create it on my system.
stevelois -- The dual Enforcer idea for v1.1 (very clever!).
Beta feedback provided by {FS}Relic and Laambo.
UT3 Bombing Run consists of:
{FS}Relic - Project leader, programmer, and level designer
Warhead - Lead programmer (including dynamic bot pathing)
euchreplayer23 - PS3 porting
Laambo, Voidy, FB3 - Level designers
==Description==
Deep in the most remote areas of the Venezuelan state Amazonas, an abandoned base was discovered with
advanced technology left behind. Two factions had discovered this base at about the same time, so it was
decided that each would take one half of the base and try to coexist together. However, natural
resources began to run low and they soon realized that trying to live like this simply would not work.
So it has come down to this: all-out war has been declared under the night sky, winner takes all, and
your faction is counting on you to help lead them to victory!
==Installation== (Discusses a Windows XP retail version install)
-1. Unzip the folder with the map files (the one this document came with).
-2. Navigate to the following folder (your local hard disk has your Windows installation):
[Local hard disk]:\My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\Published\CookedPC\CustomMaps
-3. Move the map file (BR-Amazonas.ut3) and the .ini file (will be labeled "Configuration Settings")
into that folder.
-4. Fire up the UT3 game and you're ready to play!
==Comments==
It's intended to be in-your-face, yet tactical at the same time and strongly promotes teamplay and a
variety of roles in-game. If you have a decent number of players in the game at a challenging
difficulty, you'll never make it through going in as a lone wolf. A little bit of creative teamplay
never hurt either. One instance can have one teammate translocate up to the enemy's exterior sniper post
and a teammate carrying the ball pass it to them so they can quickly teleport inside the opposing base.
Thanks to Warhead's advanced bot pathing system, bots will even do that with you, which I personally
found kinda cool, hehe.
It's supposed to be set in the Amazons (much vegetation torn down by the current inhabitants) though it
still has an abstract visual style that, to be honest, really isn't supposed to look that realistic at
all. The bases use strong colors contrasting against strong grungy looking shadows, and the goal rooms
feature extra obstacles like billowing steam. The floorplan is simple (somewhat influenced by the
BR-Anubis layout) yet is supposed to encourage more critical thinking than the almost pure run-and-gun
Anubis.
It's not perfect by any means, though it's a nice little level I think for the often neglected (even in
2K3/2K4) Bombing Run gametype, so I feel pretty good about it.
==Level Feedback==
You can send anything you'd like to say about the map to my email address at
i_love_will_smith@icqmail.com . Feedback is how designers can evolve, so anything is very much
appreciated. Be completely honest, tell me what you liked about it and what you didn't like and just
speak your mind. If you just didn't like it, just say so. That's how we designers learn and evolve--by
our own mistakes!
Also tell me about any bugs in the map I might've missed (including all possible exploits that people
online might be trying to use--remember, if you hate those people exploiting them, I'm the one who can
change all that).
