Attacked - Unreal Single Player Map Pack

Attacked - Unreal Single Player Map Pack

You are returning home from a routine patrol mission around some of the UDI's outer planets, when you decide to take a short cut home to save a few hours. While passing by a friendly planet, Tropherous, your small ship is ambushed by Skaarj destroyers. The initial attacks have killed everyone on board except for you. Now you must get off your ship via the escape shuttle to land on Tropherous and get help. However, once you land (at Ground Base 1, a small mining area), things don't seem quite right... nobody is around, and the place looks deserted... all you can hope for is that the UDI's reinforcements of battleships arrive soon...

This is my first major map pack, and you can find the review of it at UnrealSP.org. (Custom Map Reviews >> Attacked)

-Be advised that as of now (October 2002) I am remaking this pack and it already looks waaaay better than the origional. If you want to just wait for Attacked MK2, it will be released as a UT SP pack utilizing Oldskool Amp'd.

-Here is the origional readme file:

STATS:

-Build Time: 11 months

-Editor: UED 1.0 (Ahh!!!)

-Machine Built and Tested on: Celeron 400MHz with

128MB SDRAM, build in video card and sound card, and

overall was a crappy piece of junk. 90% of the pack was

made on that machine and ran fine. 10% was made on my new AMD XP 1500MHz

with GeForce2 MX400 video card, 256MB DDR RAM, and SoundBlaster Live! 5.1

sound card... and I like this machine much more than the other one.

--IMPORTANT:--

-Included: 1 RTNP Music file, "Starseek.umx", to go in your Unreal\Music

directory.

-Known Bugs: * In Attacked 1, the skybox has some BSP problems

that show up in-game.

* In Attacked 3[1], there are BSP errors that WOULD NOT go away.

There is also a big outdoor area in that map with a HUGE LAG PROBLEM.

I mean you walk outside and the framerate drops to about -1.

* In Attacked 3[2], there is some funky music error thingy when you fight

a warlord.

* In Attacked 4, the secret doesn't really work... it just looks cool :p

* In Attacked 6, there is a big BSP error in the small hangar. There is

also a lot of lag outside.

* In the Extro, there is one part of the flyby where it does some weird

flippy movement like a broken roller coaster falling off the track. At the

beginning of the flyby it does some weird sideways spiral to the starting

point then continues with the flyby. o_O

STORY:

-Short version: Your ship got attacked and you need to get off, but when

you land on a friendly planet you find more Skaarj and say "Damn."

-Long Version: You are a fairly new yet skilled member of the UDI

(Universal Defense Initiative), which is responsable for protection of

the human race and its allies from the Skaarj and other hostile races. You

are on a small IRDC "special purpose" (while it seems to you that it serves

no purpose, considering it has such weak defenses and doesn't even have a

valuable cargo) shuttle called the Renegade. You are returning to Earth after

patrolling an area near a planet far from Earth called Tropherous. Tropherous was

colonized about 30-40 years ago as a large mining operation. Little do you

know that the Skaarj know something about the planet that the colonists and

miners don't know. What they know is so great that they began a full-scale

invasion of the planet. When your small, nearly defenseless ship is sighted,

they immediately fear that you are a spy and aim to take you out. And so the

ship is attacked.

SITUATION:

The Skaarj have damaged many parts of the ship and the main power source

is destroyed. The door leading to the hangar has been blocked, and the

Emergency Teleporters that lead to the hangar are offline due to the power

drop. Engineering is locked and the coolant system is damaged, so the engines

are overheating and will soon detonate the whole ship.

Your only hope is to activate the EPS (Emergency Power System) to unlock

Engineering and restore power to some parts of the ship. In the Engineering

section, you can try to divert the engine power to lower the core temperature

and to aid the EPS, which will also activate and unlock the

Emergency Teleporters. Miraculously, the escape shuttle in the hangar is

undamaged. Get to the shuttle and get off the ship as fast as possible.

CREDITS:

*A very big thank-you to the team at UnrealSP.org for their devotion to such

a great game and for the continuous coverage of this project (when news was

avaliable ;) ) and for the creation of one of the best single player sites out

there.

*A big time thanks to "Dork" and "Techno JF" who have BETA tested parts of the

pack several times. If it weren't for them, there'd still be plenty of flaws!

*Special thanks to all my friends at school for their support and comments on

visuals, since they don't know the technical side of things.

*Thanks to my family for putting up with me talking about it all the time and

for saying only nice things about it :p

*And a VERY big thanks to all the people who have been patiently waiting for this

to be completed without complaining. I know I should have finished months ago,

sorry! But it's here now, so enjoy. :)
