[L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths) - Page 22

GanjaStar · 08-07-2010 , 18:35 Re: [L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths)

it changes the maps. closes of some paths and stuff like that. its what valve promised the game would have on release.

Interesting...so how do you use it? I don't understand the cvars on the first post to explain how they are able to block paths...

There's a small eyebeam looking thing that you have to jump onto from the pipe you normally cross

Then you jump up onto the big metal ramp from that eyebeam

Pretty tricky and I'm not sure if that's intended but it's a way to get by for now

This was not intended. I have this issue on my server too, I'm working on a fix. Thanks for letting me know

ghosthunterfool · 08-08-2010 , 07:12 Re: [L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths)

untalented maybe u could add some spawn of lockers for the "EASY" level?

GanjaStar · 08-08-2010 , 14:20 Re: [L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths)

more reports. hard rain map 1:

car after climbing the ladder on the camper, near the alarm car, there is a wooden fence on the car next to the camper, and it looks very odd, i forgot to take a screenie. but its not pretty at all.

also, on map 1, at the start, if your forced the go on the roof, the plugin still hasnt loaded a path, so the door at the bottom has an invisible wall. not gamebreaking, but pubs don't like invisible walls. they call it cheats

also, dark crnival map 1. the truck pathing block on start of the map spawn out of thin air. again the plugin loads to late.

atomic stryker, could you mod the plugin to instantly load the random path and force it?

Thanks, I'm looking into all of these. That fence was a place holder TBH. I have to find something else to make it a point of no return. Hard Rain 1 forcing to the roof is an issue I will probably remove it. Dark Carnival I'm fine with because it spawns before people hit the invisible wall and it's just more of a surprise than an issue.

No, my maps are meant to make it harder on the survivors, not easier. The easy path is left as valve intended to be considered "easy."

Quote:

hard rain map 3, hard pathing, we couldnt advance past the area where you have to go over the pipe. the path was blocked off completely and its the only path.

I've attached a TEMPORARY cfg file for HR3 to fix the issue. I just removed the path block on the return. I will have a permanent fix soon.

GanjaStar · 08-08-2010 , 17:43 Re: [L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths)

yeah dark carni is not as bad as hard rain 1 invisible wall.

that was pointed towards atomic stryker, because if the path is forced at map load, the issue would be gone. Ill try to take a look at the code and see if i can figure it out with my limited knowledge.

GanjaStar · 08-09-2010 , 06:55 Re: [L4D2] Routing (Dynamic Paths)

parish map 4. one of the medium or hard paths, right out of the safehouse there are invisible walls.forcing to easy is the only solution.
