[NODES] Nodes Map Design Contest (discussion thread)

If you don't want to participate in the contest, you don't have to. I'm actually doing it for fun. Call it a hobby.

"Besides, most of the kids would kill for an avatar or logo of me."

I would never kill for a logo haha ;P
What is that for a price?? I can do it myself ,too
sure it wouldnt be as good as yours but i think its not a good price ;/

I would kill for a logo or avatar from you

Nodes does not crash with more then 16 players (it could even crash below ) but it might crash normal TW-players (cause normal TW does not think there could be more then 16 clients in a server).
So if you would run a server that carries more then 16 players you can do so - but - you have to use a different master-server (Kottizens one).
Currently the pre-compiled nodes-clients just look at the common master servers so if you host a server that allows more then 16 players you have to choose to register it at a master-server that is probably not asked from all clients or you get banned if you still host it at normal master servers. But it's not so difficult to make an "if maxplayer > 16 just register on that ... else register on all the other stuff". And it's even an option to switch fully th kottizens masterserver in the next release of nodes (which is necessary at all cause current nodes makes fun but contains lot of bugs).

We played my map many hours 3 vs 3 to late night and even with just 6 players I had fun (and I guess even the others had or they leaved cause it was late). I've never played it with 24 players (I've played the smaller nds_sunlitForest with more then 16 players on my server) but know the sections of the map (for example lower mid section make sense with 2-3 players as attackers and 2-3 defenders because we played that section until we reached the reactor for many minutes) - but even in meanwhile there is a huge area of the map alone (and we even played on the other sections. So if everybody is keeping it's battle going on I guess 6-24 would fit best. I'm pretty sure even more then 24 would fit in a 475x270 map but then there would be probably 4 vs 4 in the same section and it's getting lower space.

Which OS?

Did you enable showing hidden folders and look in your users homedir for something like nodes?

Try looking in the config_directory of the latest (non-client) version of Teeworlds, then in "maps".

I killed this guy that was called "Lappi" or "Leppi" for my avatar made by Landil!

which operating system do you use?

Windows Vista? Bad choice,it worse than XP. So either XP or 7.
And afaik tw is a little buggy on 64 bit OS.

I don't use it on windows. So I can't tell you where to find the folder there without starting it myself. But I'm pretty sure it's in a folder in your profile/homedir. And I'm even pretty sure it's not the teeworlds folder (it's a different "nodes" folder here). So I guess: "c:\users\myloginusername\*\nodes\maps" - but I don't know what the * should be. Probably it doesn't got a subfolder or it's somewhere below roaming or app-whatever-crap. There are even two different switches to enable to (really) show all hidden folders (and there are many in your profile). But I'm pretty sure there are windows-users out there that know how to map in nodes so I wonder a little bit why there is still no answer.

Btw. is your filesearch still running since you asked first time? ... yes sometimes it even find files in windows.

At least your map looks nice. - It's even a big map... so ...again more nodes-players would be nice. I've put it on both of my servers but did not reload the config on the normal nodes server so far cause there was guys playing.
