because people were using map glitches. We also have a joust map that is the same, but not winterized. I am unbale to find where the discussion is/was on this, but it was getting a ton of complaints because people cant just play a map normally they have to ruin it for everyone by using map glitches. So instead of banning which we would have normally the map was removed.

Yes, is anyone able to pinpoint the spot or send a screenshot?

BigJake has helped. I will edit out the glitch when and if I find it.

There is one glitch, and one exploit.

The exploit invoves flying outside of the map, no glitches are done to make it happen, its just an oversight in the map, its perfectly functional even though its not intended.

The glitch can be gamebreaking, as it allows you to fly through the ceiling to a safe area that no one can get into unless they use the same glitch. It's a general glitch with the rx, but thats the only map i see it cause problems on, as many do it on accident and end up there. The problem is when someone goes up there with the flag to hide, even though they can never get back out to cap.

Both problems should be very easy to solve, just fix the subtractive area outside of the map and its good to go.

I added a shield belt, big med box, 2 extra rx, shock rifle, and pulse gun.
I also added that little protection area on each side. (The roof the big med box is on)

I fixed each Christmas tree box so no one could fly out.

Any issues with changes before I send to RJ?
Thx.

I think the geometrics of this map was already investigated by Toxic and the creator created the map so that the only way that this can be fixed, is by remaking it, unfortunately. Simple things like spawn points and stuff can probably be fixed but the issue with the skybox being broken, if you were to alter that, it would break the whole map.

You'd have to recreate the whole map. Unless there's something he overlooked or whatnot, or something doesn't make sense, that creator created a masterpiece or a disaster of a map (whatever you prefer to label it).

I personally liked that map, I just wish that exploit was fixed.

Please see my last post everyone. Did that fix the issues?

I've been tempted to edit that map a few times, but I'd need permission and I've been very distracted of late.

Any update here? I sure miss Winter Joust. It is also fun to play 1 v Bot while waiting on others to join.
Thanks!
